Is This The World We Created? (AWRP OOC/Signups/Closed)

Hey guys, just like to point this out:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of ... udi_Arabia

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petroleum_industry_in_Iran

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petroleum_Development_Oman

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iraq_Petroleum_Company

So......your industries are not exactly going to be the world standard yet....even if you discovered them a few years before you did IRL (which is fine, of course), you're not suddenly going to be producing millions of barrels every day.

Yes, I've realized this. That's why most of the oil we're exporting currently is local, except for France.

[Katyuscha]

Lets say we discovered oil in 1913 instead 1923, O.K.?

That's what I was thinking.

[Mondrova]

Of course.

Kerbleak, if I get accepted I will buy oil from you lol

I'm pretty sure every country you claim has already been taken, so yeah...

[Greater Nilfgaard]

In Norway we gotz oil too, if anyones interested

Worst case-scenario you can just sell Muslim wives to people

How do you get your oil? In ice cubes?

Well of course. But you forget, I have the UAE.

Even with that, you wouldn't head oil production, assuming the countries that normally would have been at the time produce oil normally, and I don't see why they wouldn't.

[Neo Arcad]

It would be much easier to transport my oil through a pipeline than ship it by boat. And if you are done complaining about oil deals, I suggest you try to ally with Italy, Bengal, or Spain.

I propose: Oman-Persia-Byzantine Pipeline.

Oh yeah? Well, I propose: Moon-Galapagos-Antarctica Pipeline! Serving all the penguin-rich areas of the world... AND BEYOND.





I needs to go to bed

Not until '66. Also, Oman didnt have oil for a long time, so in here, our oil industry is larger.

Short History of your Nation: Republico de Colombia y América Latina was founded in 1498 when nobles led by Machante Luzero who were granted fiefs from the Spanish King seceded and joined together to form a new monarchy, but with a parliament that represented the people. Machante wanted some fairness for the people they saw for so long suffer under the Spanish Crown, and try to move forward to make a better economy for the region. With great reforms The Republico became an economic powerhouse of the Americas, in the 1600s it's ports saw some of the America's greatest trade, and most importantly some of America's greatest wealth. With the Latin Civil War starting in 1864, when Latin America tried to secede from the republic, there were many bloody battles that ended with The Republico winning, even though the Latins had to pay reperations, it left a stain on the economy, and created a depression that the nation did not get out of until 1872. The economy recovered, but it will never be as great as it was before.

Short Description of your nation: The Republico de Colombia y América Latina is a tropical nation that has some of the best waters and beaches you will find, the people have the warm, open, south american spirit. We have booming tourism, shipping, coffee, and fruit industry that supplements a lot of our economy, the nation is run in a conservitate style economy with a liberal style social issues view, and results in a balanced and effective nation.

Okay, good. Because it sounded like you guys were making very big plans for very large amounts of oil....

You also might want to keep in mind the historical price of oil at the moment. $1.70 per barrel in 1920 ($20.73 in current money).

[Mondrova]

Hmm, I'm looking over the history of oil production, and Russia was a large producer early on. Since it looks like we'll be pretty close from the get go, I should be set, especially with Nigeria, which has a cozy supply.

[Greater Nilfgaard]

In Norway we gotz oil too, if anyones interested

How do you get your oil? In ice cubes?

Damn bro, it ain't THAT cold. Our oil is good shit.

[Kengburg]

Yeah, I do not see any countries occupying that land, so...if someone wants it that bad they can just counquer me after I take it, because you just do not "claim" all that land after I worked for like an hour on my app lol

[Katyuscha]

That's what I was thinking.

Even with that, you wouldn't head oil production, assuming the countries that normally would have been at the time produce oil normally, and I don't see why they wouldn't.

I don't plan on leading the oil industry, I just plan on having a good chunk of it.

When I say "I" I mean the three of us.

Also, seeing as Iran has the second largest sales of natural gas, I can see that becoming a major industry later on in the RP.

Whatevs. I'm in this for the long haul I can wait.

Nope.avi

Oil rigs don't exist. Nice try, but I have Aberdeen, oil capital of Europe. All that oil and shellflish and mammoths belongs to moi even once the tech gets here.

Yeah.

As I said, I have no current intention on leading the oil industry, not for a little while, anyway. Most oil sales will be made locally and with good allies.
