1920: Global Skirmish (closed, don't apply)

[Free Asian Ports]

I know, but not even the US has that many tanks and ships, even today. You may be blowing your wealth out of proportion. Even if your dictatorship has boosted your economy and you got wealth from the Panama canal, you'd still only be a regional power (not to mention that the canal itself actually belongs to the US, so you wouldn't even be getting that).

The US has decreased their amount of military vehicles and soldiers simply because modern day tech costs more. And the canal actually was stolen by the US when Panama seceded from Colombia via US encouragement. With Venezuela in control, no bloody doubt they'd kick out the US via encouraging the locals there to rebel against this practice as Venezuela is strong enough to fend for itself versus the US in a defensive manner.

*Bought

For about $40 million. From the French. Who had bought it first. The locals were rather fine with it, actually. Panamanian rebels were dissatisfied with their Colombian overlords (and probably more so with Venezuelans). The US buying the canal region let them have at least some independence, and the US supported the sovereign state. The Panamanians are more likely to rebel against their Venezuelan oppressors than against the Americans who had, at one point, given them freedom.

[Free Asian Ports]

Bah, this isn't the time or place to argue about the idiosyncrasies of history.

Even assuming the Panamanians attempted to take back the canal from the US, the US would win. It'd be another victory in the string of "Bannana Wars". Not once did a central American or pacific nation even come close to beating the US, even defensively.

The Canal still belongs to the US, and will continue to do so until 1977. Attempt to kick them out, and you'll wake up beaten and bloody in a ditch several days later. That's just the way it is. You can try in the RP if you get accepted, but be aware that the US has a lot of allies...

I specifically said in my post that the colonials were thrown out of neighbouring South American nations... Other than Guyana for some reason :I that includes the frenchies in Panama. Panama's ours - we just need to build the canal ourselves.

Fair enough. Although the canal wouldn't exist now, since even a moderately richer Venezuela wouldn't be able to afford the simply massive cost of canal construction. It did take the riches of the US to actually build.

Well... with forced labour, I will focus on better projects, such as my Maracaibo Bridge, various electric dams and pumping out millions of barrels of oil. And deforesting a lot of crap.

Denied. Greece maybe, the Caucasus and Egypt, and therefore Libya? Yeah no.

Accepted

Population is too high, even for today; it will be more around 3,000,000.

Lowered it to 23 mil. That's the total accumulative population of those areas estimate - plus contraception is banned in all the countries I play so... lol

Right, that's the accumulative population of those countries today; It's 1921. If you can come up with a reason for the population to increase so dramatically I'll be glad to accept it.

If the Central Powers won I'm sure they could convince the Russians, fighting a brutal civil war, to cede the Caucasus. African colonies(like Libya) would have also been concessions. Greece wouldn't have had much of a chance in-between three Central Powers, with potential German help as well. The Ottoman app sounds reasonable to me; the Entetate wouldn't have been in much of a position to resist if the U.S. joined the CP as well as them winning on land.

Nation name: Turan Khanate
Population: ~60,000,000
Territory (if fictional): Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, East Turkestan (Xinjiang), Khorasan, Baluchistan, Afghanistan
Head of Government: Prime Minister
History (unless a real nation neutral in WW1): Abdullah Khan II annexes Xinjiang completely in 1574. The Khanate of Bukhara was never taken over in 1740 by the Persian Shahs and made not-Genghisid. The Bukhara Khanate instead proceeds to invade Iran, trying to take some of their related lands. They occupy Khorasan after the bloody battle of Nishapur, in which 15,000 warriors were killed. The crazy Nader Shah was killed in this battle, and the Bukhara Khanate tries to re-create the Ilkhanate as civil wars break out in Persia. They eventually annexed Afghanistan and Baluchistan before pulling out due to more power being slowly restored. From around 1800 onward, most was quiet, with the annual rebellions and such. They secured a treaty with the Mughals to protect from the British in the late 1830s. Then, Britain invades. Thanks to Mughal involvement, the British are barely driven out. Once again, a time of quiet overtakes Bukhara until 1867. The Bukharans secure a treaty to have the Kazakh tribes annexed into the Khanate of Bukhara. Once this happens and the Kazakhis are fully integrated, in 1871, the Khanate of Bukhara is renamed the Turan Khanate, Turan being a collective name for their people. The Turan Khanate, is eventually able to use their British neighbor and Caspian and Arabian Sea trade to their advantage. They become much more technologically advanced then they would have, after centuries of development. They steal the British war-plans and make their own models of tanks, bolt-action rifles, and are able ro make a deal with some European nations and get their hands on a few planes, which they are still recieving.

The US population in 1920 was 102 million, less than a third of what it is today.

Even if you assume the same meteoric population boom as the US, you'd still have no more than 10 or 15 million.
