1991: Breakup of an Empire [Alternate History][Closed]

Too late, already have Titan.

EDIT: Scratch that, I only have the Jovian moons, Ganymede, Europa, Io, and Callisto, as well as the Jovian Rings.

Eh, sure. The Gas Giants will conquer Sol~

I'll bet nobody here really knows enough about Orbital Mechanics in order to properly RP a space battle. Which gives us an advantage.

Yeah..

You know what, I'll claim the sun! Hahdsh!

[Kauthar]

Dibs on a tiny rock with 15 people floating outside of Uranus until it gets swallowed up after 8 days of being occupied.
Seriously though, a space RP where three people of which one has just joined, one wasn't even part of this RP and one is yet to make a detailed IC post have claimed everything that gives them a massive advantage with resources and population.

How about this:
Not quite a galactic setting, but terraforming technology and FTL travel advanced rapidly, and Mars and Venus are home to countries, and travel between the two only takes around three months of Earth time?

Dibs on Mercury, Venus, Mars, the moon and pluto

No. Warglorian I'm just going to get this out here right now.
YOU are not going to claim a shit ton of stuff like that. Mercury, Venus, Mars, the moon and Pluto? So the moon and all of the rock planets bar Earth. Right cause that's happening. I would be fine with this but not one of your IC posts is detailed.

The space RP idea is shit in general.

[Gyrenaica]

Equatorial Guinea is mine

that's not what the map says.

I reserved it before the rp started. Map is off I. some parts.

[Venachuwenshi]

I will be galactic expanding Venezuela! Jajajaja!
Dibs on my current territories on earth, a eighth of Antarctica and a big portion of Mars, Venus and a colony on Saturn

[Crockerland]

Dibs on Mercury, Venus, Mars, the moon and pluto

Haha no.

Population: 10,2 Million
Territory (if fictional): Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania, Smolensk & Pskov, Kaliningrad.
Head of Government: Māris Liepiņš
History (if fictional): Following the Latvian independence war, Latvian forces crossed into Smolensk and Pskov, which were both regions of the Russian Empire. Soon later, Latvia and Russia signed a treaty. The Baltic Entente, instead of collapsing due to nazi and soviet pressure, united the three Baltic States into one nation despite protest by Estonia. The Baltic Entente was based on Treaty of Understanding and Collaboration signed between Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia on September 12, 1934 in Geneva. (Well, normal history follows after this. After Soviet Occupation, the nations still united).
Head of State*: Jānis Amders

Population: 27,450,400 (if u think that this number is not true, I already calculated all of the nation's population together, this is it)

Head of Government: Alain Augustin
History (if fictional): One day, a rogue regiment of the French Foreign Legion was able to overthrow the government of Algeria. They were able to overthrow the governments of 2 of some of Africa's most powerful nations, Algeria and Nigeria, together, they were able to invade and take over several other African nations in there area, many others decided to join them, in the end they formed the Franco-African Empire (note, that the Foreign Legion that took over Algeria and Nigeria were rogue, so they were most likely not friends of France.
Head of State*: Alain Augustin
Military size*: 1,058,050 (if u think that this is an absurd amount of soldiers, I literally got all the soldiers of these nations, added them together, and this was the result, many of the nation's soldiers are actually pretty good, the only exception is Tojo [which only listed how many could join the army] and Algeria [who's army I partly cut].

This is fine except for Equatorial Guinea.

The first divergence of real-world time occurs in 737 AD, when the Byzantines attacked the Umayyads, who's armies were besieging East Tourkia at the time, severely weakening their empire. Later, with their strength increased from a lack of Umayyad reinforcements, they were able to hold on to Turkey and Lebanon, and last until 1994; This also caused East Tourkia to last until modern day.

In 1858, the state of Deseret surrendered to the US, but Brigham Young was allowed to remain governor of the Utah territory, and the Mormons continued to practice polygamy, leading to a greater nationalism by the 1980s.

In the 1940s Italy took the side of the Allies against Germany and Japan, and the latter joined the allied powers in 1944; The defeated Germans fled to the Balkan states and spread their ideology, eventually taking power and founding a state of their own. Brazil and Venezuela fought a war during this period.

During the cold war, Ethiopia seceded and the South African government was deposed by peaceful coup. India and Pakistan went to war and lost much of their power.

In 1991, the United Soviet Socialist Republics and the United States shattered.
From the former USA comes 6 countries:
The Republic of Texas (Texas, half of New Mexico, Oklahoma Panhandle, a bit of Colorado and Wyoming)
Alaska (Alaska)
State of Deseret (Nevada, Utah, Arizona, part of California)
California Republic (California)
The Confederate States of America (Oklahoma, Louisiana, Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Carolina, Virginia, Tennessee)
The Republic of America (Everything else)

The US has lost most of it's oil and much of it's other resources, as well as it's population. Soldiers went AWOL and flocked back to their homestates. All of the post-United States, along with Italy, inherited nuclear weapons, but the Republic of America has all of the launch codes, and Texas controls the only nuclear weapons assembly facility, Pantex.

The fall of the US lead to a collapse of NATO, and the Chinese economy was decimated as trade with the US was it's primary economic.

Also during the 1990s, the Mansour Caliphate arose from Egypt and conquered the middle-east, Iran, Turkestan, Afghanistan, and the Caucasian post-soviet states.

Population: aprox. 9,000,000
Territory (if fictional): Russian North caucuses, part of Kazakhstan and part of Ukraine in an arch from Crimea to the latitude of Belarus and down into the Caspian sea
Head of Government: Osher Tarkhan
History (if fictional): East Tourkia was a real country which fell in 1040 AD to tribes from northern Europe after extensive wars with Arab nations. Without the fall of the Byzantine Empire, the Khazar Turks were spared from the wrath of the Arab nations, and powerful enough to defeat invaders from the North. While many citizens left after the founding of Israel, many Israelis fled back to Khazaria after the fall of Israel to the caliphate.
Military size*: 126,000 soldiers
Religion: Judaism
Language: Turkic Khazar

Rules
Be realistic
That's all, but I mean it. Don't expect Mauritania to conquer Poland, or Mexico and Equatorial Guinea to merge into a single country; Give a reason for your countries existence if it isn't a real-world nation. You can change other parts of history so long as it doesn't conflict with the existing story.
Don't nark your fellow RPrs to the mods
Narks will be kicked, disagreeing with someone is not a grounds to report them for trolling/flaming/whatever else. Note that I said your fellow RPrs, you're free to report any randoms that happen to jump on the thread and shitpost.
Normal nationstates rules also apply here, here's a quick guide on what they are:

Flaming - Pwning someone to epically; calling someone a nazi or dick is fine though
Trolling - Expressing an opinion the mods do not agree with
Spamming - Posting something irrelevant, or something relevant on moderation, or one-liner OPs on NSG, but not posting one-liner OPs on Inernational Incidents/PT2M...
