History repeats itself, first as a tragedy, second as a farce. - Karl Marx
It has been, out of all the words in this universe, a disaster. Europe was thrown into the pit of anarchy, America was split down it's abdomen. Africa only had further to fall, while the Middle East went from smoldering to flames. The culmination of greed and Capitalism has finally reached the corrupt West with the culmination of the Crimean War, started by the well-known annexation of Crimea. Russia, in a completely foolish move, annexed Ukraine and several Eastern European countries. Poland, at the guillotine, forced the European Union to intervene, forcing the nations of Europe in a costly war. The Russians penetrated deep into the West, fighting slow yet steady until the Ruble gave it's last. The following month of panic made the Great Depression seem like a minor drop. Russians showed the full devastating effects of cyberwarfare, hacking into banks and sucking up billions of dollars, taking down the power grid, and shutting down the internet. By the time a whistle sounded, the West was sucked dry. Panic reigned as many people lost everything. Riots sacked Wall Street. Berlin burned in protests. Even the mighty Kremlin could not save itself from the fear ruling supreme. One by one, nations split and split again, and entire cities vanished overnight. The breakdown in public order killed over a billion people, but not all is lost. Various cities spring up as havens. The governments, deeply shaken, are still hanging on. Just last week power was restored in Paris and London. The hack might not destroy humanity. But as the great Twain puts it, "Damn these human beings; if I had made them, I would go put my head in a bag."
Rules:
1. No godmodding!
2. Be realistic in your actions. For example, you can't invade Vietnam in a day, unless you were a god/America.
3. Consult me if you have any troubles.
4. My word is above the law. Since I bloody made them.
5. You must manage all aspects of your nation, including your citizens. You can't just perpetrate a coup and make it go smoothly.
6. When you invade anything, deal with the natives in a plausible way. (Genocide is allowed, but be prepare to be called Hitler.)
7. No offensive posts of any kind.
8. RP posts must be decent quality. (No one liner "I invade Earth")
9. Respect everyone.
10. Anyone who is douchy will be ejected with extreme prejudice.
11. For a rough guideline on how to enter your stats, take your existing nation's stats + anything else (at least from 2010) and add them up.
12. See me for reservations.
13. 1 Day is a year.
14. 2100 is the limit (or until we reach 500 pages).
15. Have fun trying to fix everything!
