The Dogs of War [OOC|Open]

Postby Caltarania » Thu Oct 01, 2015 11:18 am


The Dogs of War

1914 AH RP



Image


IC | Map | Theme


OP Board:
- Op - Caltarania
- Co-Ops - Liecthenbourg, The Jonathanian States


RP Description:

War. War never changes. So they say. And yet, as the governments of europe and the remaining world are gearing up a great war once more, while expecting to be back at home and peace by christmas, there are those who raise doubts. Defensive technology has outpaced its offensive counter-part, they argue. Some few imagine fields of war in which, by acting, you can only lose. But obviously all of that is ridiculous slander by the pacifist Intelligentsia. Others chant that the dead god might now be calling home is sevants. Pick a country, historical or a historical possibility, and lead it onwards to the future. It is the 1st of August 1914 and dark times lie ahead. Will you bring your country to glory? The drums of your soldiers are calling. The Dogs of War is a player-defined alternate history roleplay. Our timeline begins on the 1st of August 1914, with a nominal point of divergence of 1st of January 1750. Players may take up the mantle of a state that they craft using the app, or one that has already been applied for, if the person who originally made it no longer RPs it. You may apply for whatever you want, within the bounds of realism and the application, and also within the bounds of preset history as laid down further below. Other than that, you are free to create whatever nation you want; let your imagination run wild. However, note that if an area has been applied for before, then its lore cannot be changed from what is in the app from before 1914 (*note, there are few exceptions to this).

-Flag
-Great Seal
-Lady Liberty
Homeland Population: 99,111,000
Imperial Population:
-Philippines: 9016,000
-Other nonsense: ~500,000
Location/Claims: USA and its territories as of 1914
Capital City: Washington D.C.

Government Info

Brief Explanation of Government: The U.S. works the same way it did IRL, I don't think I need to explain it too much.
Ideology: Capitalism, Progressivism, Soft Isolationism
Leader/s:
-President Theodore Roosevelt (Progressive Party)
-Vice President Hiram Johnson (Progressive Party)
-Speaker of the House Champ Clark (Democratic Party)

Population Info
Brief Description of your people:
Religion: Officially Secular, but all sects of Christianity essentially dominant the nation.
Ethnicity: White
Main/Accepted Culture(s): American, Western European
Other Cultures: Mexican, Native American, Eastern European, Filipino. Pacific Islander

Military Info
Army: The Columbian Army is for all sakes and purposes, a joke. The 100,000 strong army is prepared only to fight banditos on the Mexican-Columbian border. Leadership is fair, but again focuses on the issues along the border.
Navy: The Columbian Navy is much better cared for. The fleet is modern, with decent leadership, and is able to manage the logistics of the Columbian holdings. In total there are 147 vessels.
-Dreadnoughts: 10
-Pre-dreadnought battleships: 23
-Armoured cruisers: 12
-Protected cruisers: 24
-Light/scout cruisers: 3
-Destroyers: 50
-Submarines: 27

Other Info
Brief Description of your Economy: Historical basis. My Columbia is not all that different, however the platform of the progressive party is slowly being implemented.
Goals: Murica everywhere
History:
History changes in 1911.

On October 11 1912 while at a campaign stop in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania New Jersey governor and Democratic hopeful Woodrow Wilson is assassinated while at a campaign event. The shock rocks the Democratic party, whose presidential campaign collapses as the much less popular Thomas R. Marshall to take control of the campaign less than a month before the election. As a result, former president Theodore Roosevelt wins the election in a landslide, defeating incumbent Republican William Taft.

Since then not much has happened. The Progressive Party saw gains in the congressional elections of 1912, but the Democrats still control both houses. Through some compromises the Progressive agenda is slowly being implemented, but the government has been somewhat hesitant to act.

Border conflicts with Mexico have become an issue, as banditos and the Columbian Army fight along the shared border a d chaos plagues the nation's government. Tensions between the two countries are growing increasingly volatile, as Roosevelt is trying to prevent the outbreak of all out war. Meanwhile, as the Europeans prepare for battle, the nation's leading Anglophiles are silently watching.
