So, I will instead be playing an expanded Genoese-dominated republican confederation that includes the territory belonging to the County of Nice, the Duchy of Massa and Carrara and the island of Corsica. I've already started writing the application (could take a little longer because of work but I am working on it regularly).
This Genoa is dealing with an internal crisis - a revolt in Corsica, the rise of discontent in the capital due to declining economic opportunities and the growing wealth of traditional elites - all the while handling external issues, such as the flight of many young men overseas who are signing up to work for these increasingly wealthy elites and banking families that control Genoa, either as some kind of laborer or, increasingly, as mercenaries working to fulfill the contracts of the bankers in this war or that. Plenty of room for my desire to do some internal RP while, at the same time, opening the possibility of me RPing with other folks here.
I should lyk that France already has Corsica in its app, and dealing with a Corsican revolt is supposed to be one of their issues at the start. Unless you asked them for it, ofc.
Thanks for the heads up, I was basing my claim off the updated map which didn't include Corsica. Guess this was a mistake. I won't claim Corsica then. I'll amend my claim to include the province of Frejus which Rodez's application didn't include but Sao Nova Europa did. If this is a mistake I'll gladly retract it and just stick with Nice.
