You, you haven't? Well I suppose that explains quite a lot, doesn't it? Something must be wrong with my telegrams...I wonder if that's the same reason the French guy hasn't edited his post yet, or has he? I haven't been on the sign-ups for awhile. But yeah, I've kind of sorted that out in the OOC so mind changing it?

I might kick the rp off with an invasion of Northern Switzerland. Unite the Germanic peoples and all that.
I am from the United States, just so you know.

That's what I'm gonna do, I had no idea we had an IC thread...

EDIT: Now that I think about it, would you like to invade switzerland first? I like to have additional motive to invade as well.

Invasion of Ireland here. I'm only hesitating because I've never done a group thread thingymajig before, so I'm waiting for someone else to create one so I can emulate their format for the first post.

It is an RP group. You create a thread for a specific event. So if you're going to invade Switzerland, you create a thread for the invasion of Switzerland. Only events related to said invasion would be allowed in that thread. It keeps everything nice and organized.

Again, it's a group setup. So there isn't one single IC thread for everything.

I've been in Groups that have a Central IC thread, it's just very broad and general outline of what's happening in the world. Events that typically happen have their own separate thread that's in detail about something that happened in the Central Thread. I've also been in groups that do this, so I just assumed that we we're doing the first option considering Niki's AWRP and all.

Anglo-Scanian annexation of the Irish Free State is underway.

Edit: How would I get the thread into the OOC thread? TG Garwall a link?

Yes.

The Thai Empire expresses neutrality. France surrenders.

Speaking of which, I'll launch the the Bengal/East India Campaign into the grey area to get it under control. It must be a mad house in there!

Also; I noticed before people were on about agriculture, rubber, and the like. Thai Agricultural process is huge as hell to feed our population, so I'm sure some export is there. Those Midwest states are also world breadbasket, same with Russia and China. I also think the Rio de la Plata is an epic Agricultural Center (IIRC, Argentine was set to be a World Power in the 1900s due to it's export of Beef)

Lovely, it'll be nice to see what the Catholic states think of such terrorism. Or so I'll spin it to my people. :P


But on a more serious note, I'll make the IC thread for the Anglo-Scanian/Irish conflict either later tonight or tomorrow. Because it'd be dull posting by myself, I'd encourage someone to RP as the Irish Free State, or post a few things there too. (Don't go all charging in there, though, declaring war left, right and center).

Just to let everyone know, Nigeria, which is the main portion of my Empire IRL exports a lot of rubber and is the worlds 7th largest oil exporter so don't think I'm god modding when I add those in later on in the rp.

RUbber is assuming that it ever really got out of South America and that, if so, it spread to your nation.
As for oil, your nation will first have to be able to find it, find it and then have the technology to drill it. Not sure how well it can if your nation is pretty not associated with west.
Hey, it is Parhe :D I am always open to telegrams.
I know it is a Work-In-Progress, but I would love it if y'all looked at my new factbook and gave me some feedback!

Their was no commercial drilling in Nigeria until 1956, so I wouldn't say you can use it...

Well, oil interest started around 1914. The main reason oil was not pursued during the British Rule was because it was more profitable to focus on crops and such.

Well rubber that is exported from Nigeria IRL, comes from the nation not from south America, :palm: and the nation is developed enough in this RP to begin drilling within ten years. Read my app if you don't agree. The whole point of my empire is that they have the ingenuity to do things without western assistance.

Don't worry I have you down as the Heretical Anglo-Scanian Union that has continued it's recent Catholic Genocide with the Aughoracy (how ever you spell it) Massacre which was because the Catholics revolting against the tyranny of the heretics, the Pope is willing to offer compensation for the loss of the Irish Oppressor Fighters, and is proposing to send in a paramilitary organization to teach the art of warfare against the tyrants. You know, all the good stuff.

Take a look at this if you have problems with what I said. We can start exporting oil by like 1930
