[Kingdom of Lechia]

Corrupt Politician: Artur Shevtsov, former Minister of Finance, is the main example of this trope in Waisnor. In 2007, he was accused of accepting bribes on an especially large scale and sent to prison for 12 years.

lets try be singapore and bosnia at the same time for some reason woohoo!

Hmmm in which ways will you Singapore and Bosnia?

While the idea is somewhat humorous and ironic, It does attain some of Singapore's welfare policies and social authoritarianism and Bosnia's ethnic tensions and governmental system.

"But both Chinese and Tsonese scholars disagree with this statement"

How humble

"In Lechia, Western goods like [...] are no longer available"

So what, your citizens are forced to use Lechian products of arguable quality? Sounds unfair.

Red Keep Solutions LLC - In Power

Well that's unexpected. Another megacorporation in power of the government

[Continental Free States]

A Massive refugee/fisher fleet exited the Nanjing port and went Northwest towards Japan but due to the stormy conditions of an undocumented typhoon, the fleet was forced to sail southwest without realizing where they were going. They would end up island hopping across the Pacific under the false pretense that they are near Japan and would end up trading with the natives.

You'd think they figured out they're not in or near Japan after the first handful of unfamiliar islands populated by Pacific Islanders huh

[The Aquaria]

The Second World War changed the political alignment and social structure of the globe. Statist Russia, Imperial Japan, Imperial America, and the Anglo-German Alliance became rival superpowers, setting the stage for the Cold War that would go on until 1984.

I hope those countries didn't really become 1984...

[Perikuresu]

The closest match to the Aqua language will be French.

Je sais du français mais brgghhgrgfhghhgggg *insert me vomiting here + this section is the obligatory english*

[Free Ravensburg]

TBA: Alphabet

i need to learn how to make a font/unique characters

[The Almightily Dollar]

Not much else is known about the city of Ravensburg during the Great War until A Canadian treaty in 1916 was written about what to do after the war.

I like how everyone just apperanly forgot that the City existed for like a decade

[The Caleshan Valkyrie]

Yes, his name is THE CORPORATE COUNCIL, all caps.

“How are you today, Mr. Council?”

“GUARDS! ARREST THIS MAN FOR NOT PROPERLY PRONOUNCING CAPITAL LETTERS! WHY CAN’T PEOPLE JUST SAY IT RIGHT? OH DID I SAY THAT OUT LOUD? THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN UNDER MY BREATH. OH WELL, THE DOCTORS ALWAYS SAID I HAD A PROBLEM WITH VOLUME CONTROL.”

[Perikuresu]

The highest building in their largest stationary city is specifically devoted to executions. The Valkyrie Tower is also a major tourist attraction.

One could wonder about the types of foreign tourists who visit the tower

[The Almightily Dollar]

Pacific Islanders, Asians, and the French, more specifically, the Namo-Moegapepeans, Chinese, Japanese, and the French

THE FRENCH. something about it is so funny

[Waisnor]

and the people of Australia want [LIES]

Just got this picture of Australian saying something like: "Is this so hard to just lie to me?"

[Continental Free States]

Orthodox Christianity: [...] Diocese of Lida [...] Diocese of Grodno and Volkovysk [...] Diocese of Novogrudok [...] Diocese of Glubokoye [...] Diocese of Molodechno

Catholicism: Diocese of Grodno [...] Diocese of Glubokoye [...] Archdiocese of Molodechno

The whole country has like less than 5 million people, why is it so devolved

[Grand Emilia]

"or, to the displeasure of everyone else living on the continents bearing its name, America"

I'm sure that'd sting if I were from Latin America.

[Perikuresu]

As such, the name "Emborough" was born, a portmantau of "An Emilian Scarborough."

One must wonder how their version of Scarborough Fair would go

[Continental Free States]

although the general consensus agrees on a theory that the Ancient Native inhabitants of early Apanalua originally viewed themselves as just an extension of Hawaii, albeit, with some smudge of superiority.

Did Hawaii as a unified concept even exist at this time? what did the Europeans name the place anyway

[The Almightily Dollar]

Milton's political opinions have been described as 'off the charts' and 'all over the place'

Radical centrist time

[Crimson Tree]

Yes, his name is THE CORPORATE COUNCIL, all caps.

God his parents were dicks
(i know he renamed himself btw)

Crimson Tree:

This name was chosen as it was the name of President Akagi's magnum opus, the Akagi Project, the result of this project being the monumental construction of the arcologies Crimson Tree was established in.

So Akagi named the new arcology after herself? Or was it named after her by others?

Cuba RP 2022:

Security Council: China Modern RP [...] France 2022 RP [...] Britain 2022 RP [...] America 2020s RP [...] Russia 2022 RP

so what's the difference with IRL?
