Your opinion on a interesting fact about the AN (II)

[Neu Libertalia]

Fact and opinion are the same:

Libertalia does not have a standing military. In truth, it is not even a complete state either. Libertalia is a "Pirate Republic", a loose confederation of a number of pirate settlements and cities in the Caribbeans. As Pirates, each Settlement has its own fleet(s), who perform raiding, scavenging, etc. in the North and South Atlantic ocean. These fleets have many different classes, from cruisers, patrol ships and frigates to actual, functioning Aircraft Carriers.

[Silver Commonwealth]

Woah. So, in a sense, it is a decentralized organization. I wonder, how would the pirates deal with situation, if some rogue pirate fleet would break a treaty, for an example.

While a modified Confederate battle flag is used by the regional army of Dixie (A Megastate of the SC's America), its regional flag is actually different, and confederate supporters themselves aren't liked in the SC- in fact, supporting the Confederacy might even get you hanged in SC.

[Nu-Cascadia]

It makes sense, the army is a very long-standing thing rooted in tradition. Symbolism can change for a new era; and it's a neat little factoid that paints a nice picture of a community.

---

Cascadian citizens are heavy spenders, with an average of one-hundred transactions per person per DAY. This is, in part, due to a high median income that Central Corporate pays to worthy workers. Another factor is that Cascadia is rife with practices that other nations regulate, such as readily available addictive substances and hobbies.

[Great Nortend]

That seems rather inconvenient. What on earth are they purchasing?

---

'Standard gauge' in Great Nortend is nominally 5' rather than the International standard gauge of 4' 8½". However, the Nortan Catherinian foot is somewhat shorter than the International foot, and so the Nortan standard gauge in fact works out to be around 4' 10¾" in Imperial units.

Wow, the opposite, of mine, my nation just has low taxes and high paying Jon's with a culture of money hoarding and health. Or just cheap safe hobby's such as reading.

The average spending power in Hystaria is around 120,000 and a full meal of meat bread and vegetables are around 5 yerk person and the terms(our currency) global\ galactic power is twice of the common ns dollor
from the Mary sue calling, I just didn't tell you why it was such, we are just a massive trade empire that harms other nations wealth just by our size, we aren't very centralized, and we are seen as exploitive of planets and other nation from small, weak, to large and powerful

[The Zravvisk]

Those must be some really addictive substances and hobbits. We don't have much in the way of regulation and we still would balk at having nearly half that in a few days.

@AN
Sounds like you are doing well for yourselves. The economists have given up on trying to put any value on our currency since we barter most of the time for our trading with other nations.

The Armada is one of the few nations in our galaxy that has explored other galaxies. We occasionally visit them using wormholes to chart new stars, find new artifacts, and contact new civilizations. The artifacts and works of art we collect while on these expeditions are some of the most valuable in all of the Armada. Back home we can trade some of them to very eager scholars and museums in return for quite a few supplies for us for more travels. Our chief's most prized possession is a book from one of these other galaxies.

Ceylon is a beacon of prosperity in the Thedish Empire. It has very high levels of infrastructure and economy, and the entire island is interconnected by rail. It has very strong IT, tourism, and services industries. It also has a large military base and port used to project Thedish power in South Asia.

How is the agricultural industry? You shouldn't rely on others to feed you.

The agricultural industry in Ceylon is sufficient enough to feed the populace; the government has been investing in vertical farms, hydroponics and GMO produce in order to better feed the Ceylonese population. The case is the same across the empire.

Funny how that all fits together. You should really convert to the metric system though. Imperial measurements are a pain in the butt.

The countrywide railways of Sassony use standard gauge, i.e. 1435 mm wide track. This gauge is also used for many urban railways such as metros and trams. The second most common gauge is meter gauge (1000 mm), which is used by trams, interurbans and local railways throughout the country.
For historic reasons, the interurban networks of Kīl, Lȳbēk, and Brūnsvīk/Vulfsborc use the "Eastphalian Gauge" of 1100 mm.

[The Intermarian Order]

Well, that's progressive of you, I guess.

Even though the Intermarian Legion practices a conduct of chivalry and holds an adverse to mistreating POWs or civilians, the same cannot be said for their treatment of Soviet NVKD Commisars during the Great Continental War. Soviet Commisars are often times executed on the spot by Legion officers as they are seen an enforcer of Stalinism Vanguardism and are known for killing off their comrades due to a simple thought crime. Those values don't bode well with the Legion and they are held in the same level of contempt as wasteland bandits and slavers. Simple Soviet grunts however, are treated well in accordance to the now defunct Geneva Convention. TL;DR, we follow something like the German Commissar Order.

Lana Vasilyevich, also known as Lana of the North Empire, was the Empress of the Empire of Wawakana which lasted from early 1212 to late 1463, with her reign officially starting in 1382 and ending in her death in 1459. Many historians mark her time in power for its benevolence, prosperity, and peace, disregarding ethnic squabbles, however, which tended to happen commonly between rival gangs in the south.

[Thedeny]

That is a very long and undoubtedly popular reign. I can imagine she’d be called one of the greatest monarchs of pre-contemporary history.

Edit: At least there weren’t any genocide or real conflict between ethnic groups..

The Kingdom of Thedeny has two dominions in North America: New Thedeny and Carolina. New Thedeny includes the RL New England and Middle Colonies, Virginia, West Virginia, Ohio, Indiana and Michigan. Carolina includes RL North + South Carolina.

[The Great-German Empire]

Nice colonies. Is their industrialization comparable to the corresponding US states of today?

---

Large, long-range jump jets are an integral part of German air superiority strategy because they can operate literally anywhere. They require a “runway” shorter than their fuselage length to take off (that is to say, a helipad or literally any clearing will do), can fly thousands of kilometers without refuelling, can refuel in mid-air, break the speed of sound twice over and are very difficult to destroy due to the size of their control areas and the plane itself. And yeah, they have low radar cross sections if you outfit them that way.

[Stellar Expedition]

That sounds like a horrible idea but also very characteristic of Germany... If you mean large as in larger than the typical 50-60ft length range, that's seriously sacrificing agility. Assuming you only use IRL existing metals, I would also doubt the "hard to destroy" bit... though, I suppose everything else about it could be true, so that is quite strange but interesting.

The Captain is usually the strongest person aboard the ship. However, because merit and personality come into play when choosing the next Captain (the First Mate doesn't necessarily succeed the Captain aboard the ship), Captains can be one of the weaker warriors aboard. This was the situation of the Second Fleet Captain, a ninja-like warrior who was actually much weaker than most officials aboard but was chosen for his incredible genius.

This is where the concept of the Captain having a personal guard comes into play. As he was not exactly strong enough to protect himself, he decided to reform the ship's police force. Initially, the First Mate supervised the Police Force. The Second had not chosen a First Mate yet, and decided to create a new role for the police force. Thus the Police Commander was created, a role as strenuous as the guards of the American Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. The Police Commander doubly runs as the Captain's personal guard as well as the head of the police force. With advanced comms technology and computer assistants, the role is made a lot easier than it actually sounds.

Now, the Second's Police Commander had their work cut out for them, but the Fourth is such an extraordinary powerhouse that he almost entirely negates the need for a guard. Eva finds herself in the position of having actually little to do. The ship's police force is small and has little on-board crime to deal with, so she only gets calls every once in a blue moon as well. In many cases, Eva, one of the strongest warriors aboard, finds herself actually being the one protected by the Fleet Captain...

TL;DR the Police Commander is currently a useless role because of how strong the current Fleet Captain is.

[The Zravvisk]

She can at least make sure no enemies will blindside him. That's the reason our chief has his own guards despite being the strongest warrior in the Armada.

Every few years the Armada will stop what it is doing and begin a pilgrimage back to the shattered ruins of their home planet. Once there, they met up with the shrine keepers there to discuss the state of the shrines and if any archaeological items were found that could shed light on their pre-history. Then the shrine keepers will be given lists of all the ships and crew that were lost since their last pilgrimage to be added to the shrines. While the names are being added, the Armada will reflect on all those that came before, both friends and family, and their sacrifices. During this time is also one of the rare times the zravvisk are willing to let outsides near the planet, mainly because there now a few million dragons wacthing each outsider like a hawk and ready to jump them if they defile the shrines. After the last name of the lost is added to the shrines, the Armada will hold a large feast to celebrate them then get back to their travels.

[United States of Natan]

That sounds like an interesting history, I'd love to learn more.

The United States of Natan has a martian colony. Due to extensive travel time between Mars and Earth however, candidates to represent the colony in the House of Representatives (our lower house; territories get 1 representative to Congress in that chamber) campaign from earth.

[Marcianus]

Mee too!

In Marcianus, old technology is used just as common as new technology.
Basically, you'll see lots of people use old things like walkmans, VHS, old cameras, old phones, record players, etc. And you'll see lots of people with VR, smartphones, new cameras, etc.

In 2790?! Buddha Muhammad Christ... how is that even possible?

In Bryttain’s timeline, the Scandinavian kingdoms of Denmark, Norway and Sweden joined together in a defensive pact during the First Great War. It later went on to form the Empire of Scandinavia, a union of the Scandinavian crowns and states. Finland later joined due to the threat of Russian invasion and influence. The empire was later named the Nordic Empire.
