After-World: A Post-Nuclear Nation Simulator (OOC, Open)

[Silician]

Silician, is the thing that is supposed to get the RP "really started" really and incurable disease? I personally do not see how that would cause competition or cooperation between the players unless you intend to flesh out the concept more. Also, please tell me this is not a zombie disease, or something equally impossible.

Also, I am curious as to the epidemiology of this mysterious disease. As very few of the nations here have face to face contact with one another, what is the transmission vector? Also what is the onset, duration and mortality rate of the disease?

No, after some thinking, I figured that my original idea would not work. This is not the big idea I had. I'm going to need some more time to think of something new. I'm sorry about the delay. The disease is a virus spread by the cold environment and is spread from person to person. On average, the virus stays in the system for about two weeks, but for the weak and elderly about a month. Mortality rate is 1% overall for the continent, but higher for colder regions.

Time to settle down, enjoy some canned food in a government research and development bunker in the middle of nowhere, with sealed doors not getting the disease. No, but seriously, if that happens, INCREASE MORTALITY. I want a pandemic to sweep through Black Mesa.

Sure, if you want you can kill off more of your population. I won't stop you.

I posted to the IC, lets get this party started!

The area I live in is both cold and hot depending on the season, the winters are bitterly cold and snowy, while the summers are hot and quite dry. So depending on the season this will effect me real badly or virtually un at all.

Well, it's winter time now.

Name of Government: New Texas Coalition
Territory: I'd like the territory to start at Texas, stretch West bordering the gulf, and end near San Antonio.

Government History (origins, rise to power etc.):
The New Texas Coalition is, well, new, having only originated around 30 years ago. At about 2351, descendants of citizens of Houston began to emerge from a vault... er, I mean bunker, and colonized the outskirts of Houston (the center was far too radiated for colonization). For 45 years, these survivors lived in a state of relative peace. Then, in 2396, a group of explorers from New Houston traveled to San Antonio, connecting with the citizens of New Houston via courier (the radiation would've caused electronic communication to be very faulty). They found that San Antonio was in a pretty well-off state compared to New Houston, and the radiation wasn't nearly as bad. Unfortunately, San Antonio had been colonized by vicious warmongers, and the adventurers were killed. Over the next few months, New Houston-ians (or whatever you'd like to call them) elected a leader to communicate with the San Antonio people. The elected leader was called John Hawk, a diplomatic man. After a couple of failed attempts at diplomacy, and having a couple of attempts on his life, he managed to ally the citizens of San Antonio. John Hawk claimed power, and created a government, which he called the Council of New Texas, although the territory itself, which stretched from New Houston to San Antonio, was called the Coalition of New Texas. He started an operation to remove the radiation from New Houston, which he called "Operation Colonization". It was a success, although it took 7 years and killed over 100 people. The Cabinet of New Texas ruled the Coalition from the dead center of the city. They have become expansionist, and seek to gain more territory, hopefully controlling all of Texas in the future. They have set up a few more settlements between New Houston and San Antonio, and every one in ten people are drafted into the New Texas military.

Description: The Coalition seeks to recolonize Texas, so that humanity has a remnant of previous civilization. They are a bit authoritarian, but ultimately seek the greater good.

Population Levels (within reason): Somewhere between 3000-4000 people (whatever works)
Technological Levels/Advancments: MT
Notable Traits (Economic, Military etc.): Pretty militaristic, with one and ten people drafted into the Military.
Leader of Country: John Hawk
National Capital: New Houston

The RP has been over for months.

[VALENWORLD]

the rp is not over. there are still people waiting for things to happen and some people that want to join. just because some people don't check it anymore doesn't mean that rp is over.
