Roughly doubled my claim, but it's still a bit conservative.

I say that Siberia can claim the east and north (didn't want to go too far, I'm inexplicably using a map without him on it), and a Manchurian RPer can claim the south.
Sometimes I'm reading through military threads here, and I stop and think "What the hell is wrong with all of us?" But then I get on Facebook, and realize I'd rather be insane than an idiot.

Adding it now. How does Russia always end up as red on the damn maps? Silly communists (don't tell Putin I said that).

I'll probably be using Lake Baikal there as a national symbol, and it would be an ideological castration if Siberia were to sever that from me...

When I make maps, I don't think about how I can make myself strong. I think about how I can make myself vulnerable.

And I actually thought to myself, "Crap, I'm going Red...we're not even reds!"
It was just the only color that wasn't used...

...and then I saw Sicily as I was moving my mouse to the "save" button.



P.S:

Well, in economics, no. But in everything else, yes.
Not only was he in the KGB, but he was in the Second Chief Directorate. The *best* KGB branch.

Putin is not a Communist in any way, shape, or form. Take it from a person who has been a Communist for more than thirty years.

Aaah, a Communist.

You see, I remember back to my junior English class in high school. My teacher made us read the Crucible, and then told us it was an allusion to the Red Scare of the 1950s.

I chose to interpret that loosely.

COMMUNIST! BUUUUURN THE COMMUNIST!

I split the rest of Siberia between you and Korea, there was too little land left between the two of you for any worthwhile nation to pop up.

Sounds good, I was kinda worried about that myself.
I kinda figured no one would actually try to make a country out of that little strip, but at the same time I thought it would give me just a little bit more power than I wanted.

You could have the territories you didn't want be just that; Frontier territories, where the government has little jurisdiction and has become a home to outlaws on the run, and anti-government insurgents.

That's pretty much what I was going to do with it. I don't mind claiming it if no one else wants it.

And of course, I won't be this nice in the IC about it. Not one step backwards and such.

I think the date is set at 1910, and most of the nations have finalized their map claims, but other than that not really.
