I did to cean then he told me to send it to you and well I'm about to give up.

Honestly I've started to not give a shit.

The union itself is similiar to the boer republics if they had a monarchy and were relying on the zulu to enforce rule on the bantu and southern n'dele.

Well, nobody is able to do anything for you until you send Garwall a map claim.

@Garwall: His claims, so you don't have to dig them up.


Also, @the guy who wanted Australia----I forget what happened after the Australia guy dropped out, but if nobody's said it yet, go ahead and make an application.

Hey, here's what I recommend. You could look at a physical/political map of Africa, select an easily communicated boundary for your territory, like a river or current national border. Then you could get somebody to paint that onto a map claim.

I'll volunteer for it, but I'm an idiot when it comes to uploading files. Anyone else want to?

Also, as a side note, I noticed that almost all of us import grain without all that many nations exporting it. Someone's going to have to make an agricultural nation someday, perhaps one of the American states.

Well, I import agricultural foodstuffs from my colonies in India, which isn't really "importing", more of an internal transfer of resources. Still.

Well I would have put grain as one of my exports, since I think Canada's pretty good about exporting grain, but I already had three exports and with how focused on the military Nova Britannia can be they would keep surplus grain at home for whenever Nova Britannia needs it. Of course, if I could expand southwards into the Great Plains then I could start exporting the extra grain once the area is firmly under Britannian control
I have another question, what is the status of Japan currently?

Most Mediterranean and Latin American countries domestically have enough grain to sustain themselves however for an war economy thats a totally different matter.

I'm going to be eating through practically all of the export market.
And I noticed in the apps that about a third of all countries are listing grain as a major import, which of course implies a domestic deficit.

Afghanistan now exports grain, netting itself a pretty healthy sum considering all the nations that import it.

This will be good for future Afghan relations.

I may be mistaken but, I don't believe Afghanistan's hilly sandy terrain is good for growing grain. But again, im not an expert on such things so * shrug. *
