From the Ashes of a New Era (WWII/AH/Signup)

[New Granadeseret]

A New Era

The year is 1938 B.C.E The nations of Europe and the world, having once thought to have finally reached an end to War, once again find themselves standing over the pit of despair. Many had thought, after the last great conflict that nearly tore the continent apart, that the world would have learned the error of their ways. Saddly, blinded by their pasts, the victors had written into their peace accords the seeds of an even greater conflict to come. Expansionism, at least tacitly restricted by the principals of Westphalia since the days of Napoleon, took an ugly turn as the victors tore into the bodies of the defeated, putting off-tune the great Concert of Europe. This injustice lit in the hearts of those nations thrown down a thirst for revenge, their desire to slack it causing to make deals with ideologies that in better times would seem monstrous. New industrial and medical technologies have allowed for an explosion in population, and cheap labor, once an alien concept, has become accepted fact in very industrialized nation. How, this same explosion has carried with it the poison of overproduction and speculation, the global economy drowning under the weight of too much labor, too many goods, and not enough money with which to buy them all. Pacifism grips the peoples, even those whom once were so hot-headed for war, as people cry in the streets for bread. Only in hatred for perceived ideological rivals has keep that burning Nationalism that drove the First World War alive, twisted and warped into new forms. Fascism, like a Phoenix rising from the ashes of fallen countries, blazes with hatred for those who have done them wrong, with new life and energy that works miracles in lands once though hopeless, and who's shining glory is a becon to the downtrodden. Communism, lurking at the edges of the world and much-hated by all, contorts and corrupts itself from the words of Marx, trying to fit his ideals into a colder, harsher reality, hungering to spread itself further and further in its own form of Imperialism. Capitalism, struggling and wounded from the Great Depression, finds herself weak and her people apathetic, far more worried about holdings it supposedly-crumbling structure together then the dangers of its fellows, and the clouds of fire and ash above.

Overview
As a World War 2 RP, there are some things you need to be aware of. Military, technological, medical, and industrial technology shall all be age-appropriate. Mass conscription will be the norm, and even backwards nations will mostly suffer more casualties more because of their poor logistics and organization rather than their tactics. Most every part of the globe is claimed at this point, either held by independent nations or controlled as a colony. Certain countries, such as anything based out of Africa, will not hold colonies because it is ridiculous for them to do so. Colonies were actually a lot more expensive than they were really worth unless they were over a precious resource like gold, rubber, or oil. Holding them requires extensive navies and colonial regiments to ensure trade and quell dissent. Independent nations where colonies are abundant are few but they will exist, and given the fact they have to have either modernized or been protected by another power, they will be very difficult to invade.

Any land that goes unclaimed will be filled with a NPC nation. As OP, I will deem what their actions are, but if my actions seem biased, you are free to point it out and discuss it. I will not quell criticism.

And of course, because this is an RP and not a history book, you are free to be creative with your countries. Maybe France dominated in India rather then Great Britain? Maybe the White won the Russian Civil War? Maybe America was the birthplace of Communism?

Alliances
World War 1 was known for its byzantine alliance structures the muddled morality and made both sides of the war as equally in fault as the other. The main members of these alliances will be determined before the game starts, as it is supposed to start a little more then a year before the war starts and ideologies are already set in. Countries may defect during the war, but you will had to have been neutral, or on the brink of defeat. If one alliance seems too overpowered I will step in and change things so they are more even, at least earlier in the war: there is something to say for momentum and diplomatic relations, after all.

Stats
To insure people claiming nations and then buffing up their power (Turning this into a sword-waving competition) and to insure IC limitations, I will be implementing stats into this RP.

- Technology: 1 is Ethiopia (Mostly spears)
5 would be WW I era or slightly later equipment ( Think Poland or maybe France)
10 would be Uber-Advanced (Think starting with Nazi Super-weapons)
- Military Organization: 1 is hopelessly anarchic (Feudal-style levees, private armies, ect.)
5 would be stuck in WW I tactics to start, but can learn and change (Think France during the Sitzkreig)
10 would be full-on masterful: very high-level staff who can execute complex maneuvers (If its physically and logistically possible, you can do it)
- Agriculture: 1 would be extremely primitive (Hunter-gatherer)
A score of 5 would mean you need some food imports, at least from your colonies
7 would be producing enough to export noticeably
10 would be
- Stability: (Fascists and Communists can consider this how much they have to scapegoat minorities and undesirables: political discourse isen't really an issue for them
1 would be held together with duct tape and prayer (China during this era)
5 would be having heavy rumblings in the colonies, but things are otherwise normal in democratic discourse
10 would be everybody loves the country, agreement on most things.
- Industry: 1 would be men working out of their basements, mostly
5 means fairly decent industry, by either stagenent or outdated equipment (The USSR)
10 means your nation is the workshop of the world, and can defeat an enemy by burying him under the weight of your output (The USA on Full-war economy)
- Infrastructure: 1 would be dirt trails.
5 would be a decent rail system, some roads, maybe even a few commercial airlines
10 would be Autobahn everywhere and the trucks to work it

You must fill these out of ten, and you have 33 points to spend.
After the War
Even though this RP is centered around World War 2, I plan on continuing it afterwards if it is successful. The losers will feel the pain of losing, but so will the victors. And the victors, of course, won't necessarily agree on how things will happen after

National Background:The Islamic was founded as a religious colony by Muslim explorers, during the last years of the Emirate of Granada. According the mythology, the founder of Selmi Islam, Selam-Ith was a farmer in the Emirate during the last decade of the Emirate, and received a vision from Allah to seek out records of an ancient expedition that had been buried in his vineyard (Several sources differ on weather the plates he dug up actually existed: if they did, most theorize they were some kind of record from Norse who explored the Western Continent earlier on.). One can not dispute, however, that he quickly gained a following among the local population, who were losing faith in the traditional power of their Emir and grasped at his "miracle" and promise of a place away form the Christians. Preaching that the local Muslims had a sacred duty to travel to the land he had read of, he even gathered may Christians and former Pagans to his cause, gathering funds to purchase the ships needed to ferry them across the Atlantic Ocean. The Spanish crown thought he was daft, but diden't bother him, since they thought he'd just end up killing a bunch of infidels by sailing them into empty ocean. Eventually, by the time Granada fell to Aragonese-Castillian invasion, he had collected an armada of ships and supplies large enough, his movement seizing the remains of the Granadian navy, and fleeing with his following and refugees. During the sailing, however, the plates themselves sunk in the middle of the Atlantic, and the message was only preserved on paper records. As luck would have it, however, his fleet made landfall on the American continent (near the site of Veracruz), where they formed various colonial cities, coming into contact with local Native American tribes, including the Triple Alliance, headed by the "Golden City" of the Aztecs. Keeping a peaceful and friendly attitude with the locals, the Moor-men connected especially well with the cosmopolitan residents of Tenochtitlan, their "tribe" gaining the patronage of the emperors in exchange for providing the secrets of the strange medicines, beasts, and technology they brought with them. Over the course of roughly 50 years, Moorish culture took a strong hold in the Aztec empire and its cities, many members of the middle and upper class converting to Islam as it became equated with ingenuity, high culture, and resulted in one getting their heart cut out on a bleeding alter less often (Which is always a plus). Slowly, Selmi Islam overtook and absorted the native deities, making them spirit-servents of Allah, and wiping out it more "crude" portions. This was largely helped by the advent of Smallpox, which struck less hard and the Muslims cast as a sign of displeasure for not converting. The Alliance morphed into a Confederacy, then a Federation, and finally a united Empire under the reign of Aculnahuacatl Mohammed I, who used their technological advantage from Moorish know-how to subject the tribes in the region, both to the north and the south. This new union was enough to beat back Spanish attempts to claim their territory in the 16th century, and the full expulsion of Muslims and Jews from Spain gave them a further population boost as, being a Spanish-speaking nation (Well, Spanish and Aztec). The power of the monarchy was gradually reduced during the 17th century, though still robust, as authority decentralized from Tenochtitlan and to to other cities, such as Pueblobad (Huston), Segunda Sol (San Francisco), and Nouevo Texcoco (Salt Lake City). Initially, power was divested to "dynasties" of the city's founders, but by an Imperial Decree in 1701, partially for his own power and partially to appease a rising class of non-noble landowners, it was decreed that any and all could be elected as the current ruler's heir, for local vote, once the current ruler fell, provided he was approved by the Emperor.

During the 19th century, the Empire was faced with a rival: the United States of America, an English-speaking power to the North. With her annexation of much of the continent, the fuzzy lines of the frontier between the two powers lead to a series of small conflicts but, thanks to greater unity in the face of sectionalism by the US, with Northerners worried about the spread of slavery into an area were it was forbidden, stopped the issue from exploding into a full-on territorial challenge and major war, the issue was resolved peacefully in the Treaty of Nouevo Texcoco, in which Nahulata surrendered her claim to Oregon territory and southern Louisiana in exchange for the US surrendering any claims to Islamic lands. Since then, while there has been a great deal of tension, the Empire and her neighbor in the north have gotten along reasonably well.

He's right. You'll have to pick something different.

[Elderowa]

Just one nitpick as someone who actually likes studying History: Ethiopia is not an African Country that used Spears at this point! True, at one point they did, but by the 1850's, Ethiopia had Guns and a Western Styled Absolute Monarchy, and before World War 2 they had Trains and Railways and Infastructure and all that; they where basically the most advanced country in Africa, and the only one to beat Imperial Invaders (The Italians). To say they used Spears, kind of is insulting to Ethiopia (Not that I am Ethiopian, but still).

Anyways, I'll reserve Italy.

Nazism, thus, was not formed as the would be Fascists jumped on the Kaiser's coattails. Wilhelm promised to fight Communism and Fascism, wishing to restore Germany as a Monarchist power, and wants no competition from either rising political ideology. Throughout the 1930s, Hitler and Wilhelm have worked together rebuilding Germany and absorbing more ethnic Germans. The question is this; shall Poland fall, or shall the German Reich look elsewhere, perhaps outside of Europe?

Just diden't have a good example of any other country that would be THAT bad at military. Maybe New Guinea Tribesmen would be better. But noted: however, I would like to remind you that at least SOME creativity in history is preferable: I do not want this to be a WW II carbon copied. You can be democratic or Commie Italy if you want.

Awesome. I know it looks very similar to Germany IRL, but of course other people will be making big changes and I will probably end up invading a lesser Communist power, instead of Poland. If Italy goes Commie, they'll be my target

I was actually thinking about Communist Italy. Before Mussolini's march on Rome, the leading party in Italy was The Italian Socialist Party, which had actually recently aligned itself with the Bolsheviks. I'm thinking the Italian Socialists will become the Italian Bolsheviks (Will think of a Better name for them though) and would have violently taken over Italy. Although King Victor Emmanuel would not have been purged like the Czar of Russia.

How you going to Annex Austria though? With Hitler, he bullied the Austrian Government into voting for joining Germany. Is your Kaiser going to try to bully them as well? Or is he going to invade them? Because that could be WWII's Spark.

Also, having Hitler as your Prime Minister (Forgot whatever they called him) is going to be a pain in your neck, as he was constantly doing things behind the Presidents Back and then violently took over when the last President died. So have fun with that.

He will argue that they are Germans and send in Hitler to bully them. If that doesn't work, yeah, I'l invade and start the war.

And Hitler will be power hungry, yes, and will work to make himself the government. That's the idea, I want intrigue.

I'll take America, minus what has been claimed.

That's cool. Meanwhile, the Italian Communists are on the hunt for Mussolini (or his successor) who is leading some sort of Catholic-Fascist Guerrillas at this point. They'd be more like Falangists now instead of full blown Fascists now.

I'll have my App up in a bit!

I claim Britain and her colonies.

WW II is a war of FRONTS, not decisive battles. As such, it is going to take place on the grand strategic sense. I will largely allow people to manage it themselves, but will intervene if results are being grossly abused

National Background:

Italy, in WW1 actually was terrorized into helping the Central Powers instead of helping the Entente. Once WW1 was over, Italy's economy failed terribly, with revolutionaries seize this as an opportunity. In the 1920's several groups, including communists, fascists, anarchists, monarchists and others strived to gain control.

In 1929, with the help of the Italian Socialist Party, Benito Mussolini (who never turned to fascism) took control of the Party and later was elected to lead Italy. Benito Mussolini, once taking power began with stoping older policies and replacing them with Socialist and Communist policies. In 1932 he was given Italian executive power, tremendously increasing his power to a semi-dictator for a short while. During this time, Mussolini feared the Italian Socialist party would hold him back from going to war and from achieving true communism.

He used his executive power to liquidated the Socialist Italian Party, having high ranked members secretly arrested on charges such as treason or murder. In 1933, Mussolini also had the people controlling the duration of his executive powers secretly detained and do replaced by some of his hardcore supporters. He then outlawed all parties except for the Italian Imperialist Party, and began to emulate a form of Imperialistic Stalinism with Theocratic traits. Due to this, Mussolini put much stress on turning Italy into a scientific super power.

By 1936, he has outlawed privacy rights and the freedom of speech. He also declared his executive powers indefinite, and has began a process of nationalization. In 1937, he instituted a new governmental agency designed specifically for creating propaganda and controlling the Media. By 1938, Benito Mussolini, a man who once had a shining selfless dream of bringing Italy into a free communistic society free of classes, free of currency, has became corrupt and paranoid with his power. While in the name of communism, he has created a Stalinist dictatorship bent on technology and anti-fascism.

Well, this thread is very new. We were still discussing this thread just yesterday and today.
