That's a really dumb idea, which is probably the point. Any person even remotely educated in Islam knows that "Wahabbi" is more of a loose derogatory term on any non-Orthodox Sunni Muslim rather than the term for a defined ideology. The irony of the Brits, who primarily funded and supported the Saudi State (The state holding Abdulwahhab and his children's belief as divine word) through three centuries, now hating it once it's in their own shores is very delicious though.
AN: Worldbuilding based on fighting styles is always cool. I am curious about how a mix of Brawling, Berserking, and Boxing (All Warrior-type skills in a conventional RP) can lead into a rogue-style hack-and-slash system though.
Once again, I'm gonna milk this until I figure out another fact:
Upon entering the Great War, the British Empire's primary objective was to seize Dunkirk and the ports of Wallonia and use them to transport around 3,000,000 troops through the Channel. It was only a stroke of luck that the Majority of the North German Qingdao Fleet had dropped anchor in France's ports after bringing back the bulk of North Germany's garrison from the recently-returned Shandong. France told North Germany that if Britain could achieve naval dominance in the Channel this early, the war would be over in a month, and so the Qingdao Fleet and the Homefleet moved into the channel and helped France battle Britain. Once they realized they had no hopes of achieving dominance in the next two weeks, Britain tried to move around them and make landing in France's Southern coasts. It was at this time that the Naval part of the Great War reached its peak.
France, knowing that if Britain could move even one ship through Gibraltar, it would have supremacy in the Mediterranean, used almost every resource it had to block the strait, causing something close to a naval "trench warfare" where five entire British and French fleets were laid to waste before Britain decided it was simply not worth it. So now, Britain decided to move *around* Africa and come through Suez (Which they controlled without a single doubt). North German "Crown Prince's Fleet", stationed in Schwarzpunkt and Luderitz, and later the North German "Mittelafrikan Fleet" stationed in Freienhaus, tried as much as they could to stop the British from moving their troops and their navy, and later the Italians tried (to no avail) to block Britain from moving through Djibouti. By the time Britain had arrived to Suez (early September 1908), the Great Front had been established between France, Habsburg, and North Germany, and so Britain couldn't afford to open a new front, therefore they were forced to, instead, move their troops to Trent (crushing the last vestiges of the Italian Navy which had put Illyria and South Germany in a blockade) and land about 3,000,000 of their original 4,500,000 expeditionary force, which moved to reinforce the South Germans in the trenches, primarily in Palatinate, Baden, and Bavaria.

The Great-German Empire wrote:The German Empire was renamed the Empire of Germany on March 30, 2019. The constitutional amendment was floored in the Reichstag by decree of the German Emperor, and passed quickly by the Reichstag and Bundesrat. The reason for this (apparently long-overdue) amendment was that Germany could not be called "Empire of Germany" at its inception in 1871 because this would be a claim to the portions of Germany under Austrian control; however, the name stuck even after Austria joined the Empire in 1927. Internal strife, distaste for ceremonial formalities and the like held the bringing up of this question for a long time.
More importantly, the amendment also renamed the title of the hereditary Head of State from "German Emperor" to "Emperor of the Germans". Emperor Friedrich V wanted to make it clear that the position of Emperor is one that rests on popular trust rather than obscure divine right, and that an Emperor is only legitimate if he makes an effort to faithfully represent his people's interests abroad.

Geektopia's flag changes based on its weather. At first, green and gray symbolized the murky radiation and harmful gases. Red and orange came along during a firey burst of meteoric contents came flying at the country. Presently, the nation is experiencing high levels of gamma radiation in the southern parts of Geektopia.
Geektopia has become kind of a magnet for cataclysmic weather, which is why there are underground bunkers strewn across the land as well.

Borgevia wrote:The United States adopted a parliamentary and eventually a Ranked Voting system because of Borgovia. It's not because Borgovia had any influence, but because Borgovia's ruthless capitalism pre-reform was so horrendous, if the United States have any resemblance to them, it could be weaponized by China and the Soviet Union against the West. This led to international pressure on Borgovia in the 1950s when the rest of the world moved towards a more Keynesian model of capitalism to combat the Communist bloc. The two-party system of the USA, where private donations influence elections and really no representation based on population is akin to Borgovia's Kleptocratic 'Corpus' where only those with money can vote, and they tend to vote for each other, the 'Corpus', an organization that runs Borgovia like a Trust as opposed to a federation of states. 21st century United States resembles a combination of Canada & Singapore in that it has the quasi-Social Democratic vibe of Canada but it's also Civic Nationalists with a hyper-insured, not universal, healthcare system similar to IRL Singapore/Taiwan.
Borgovia, during its reform, was infamous for its delegates to the UN accuse it of being White Supremacists:
The world is changing, yes, but the world also points to Borgovia as a black sheep of all that is wrong with the world. What of Belgium and the mutilation of Congolese? What of Britain and France, Germany and Japan, Russia and Portugal, that committed acts of horrendous genocides across their colonies? The only reason why the world despise the Corpus so is because our victims include White Europeans!
Another reason why the USA and most of Latin America adapted away from the ruthless capitalist attitude of Borgovia is because the world is aware of Fortuna, or, Falkland Islands irl, a debt internment colony that was populated mainly by Japanese, Hungarian, and German POWs of World War II. Since Borgovia didn't fully fund the war, and left the Corporations to do it, Fortuna is collectively owned by several Corpus members, used the POWs as indebted workers who owe the Corporations an outrageous sum for the labor and services, plus amenities provided to keep them alive. Many riots broke out, as Japan doesn't want their POWs back, and Germany is unable to convince Borgovia to return their POWs for trials; many of the rioters in the debt colony would often have boiling water poured down their throat or tubes shoved into their mouths/nostrils to be force-fed if it's a hunger strike. They're employees who owe to the Corpus, strap themselves up, grow up, and work!
This very thing is what scared the USA into reforming itself, and later convincing the entirety of the West to pressure Borgovia in the 1950s as the USSR is very well ready to slander the West using Borgovia as the 'true face of Western capitalism'. Italians, Spanish Franco sympathizers, and Romanians were spared just because they're Latino blood (1940s was a very racist time)
