By the way, what is the date of the RP at its start? Do we start on 1 January, or the Spring Equinox, or is there some other specific date to start off on?

He said 1530, I would assume we start at the beggining.
Vorradia. A place where freedom is a fading memory. At the heart of the sprawling, embattled province lies Imperial City. Or as the city is really called by the poor souls who inhabit it: Forsaken Hope. Here they suffer under a fanatically religious totalitarian regime. Outside the city walls lies a frozen and inhospitable wasteland. The people here live free from government control, but at a terrible price. They live in small nomadic communities, struggling to survive in the harsh climate.

The Mali Guy (who answers to the name; Quendi) is grateful you think so. :p

But good or not this RP appears to be closed, something I wasn't aware of when I signed up.

Now, now, let us act like responsible adults. War doesn't fix everything. It can unbreak a lot of things, though.

Now, can I just make an OOC arrangement on the invasion of Egypt? I'd like to take a small portion of the West Bank of the Nile, near the coast, if that's ok. Crap, Acrot's already taking Alexandria. Umm, how about the Nile Delta? :D

Haha.... Cairo is being taken as well by the Arabs. Looks like you're running out of time... :p

Perhaps if you join my against the Arabs, I may sell you the Nile Delta....

Can't. I'm trying to stay neutral between your conflicts so that, if I do expand into Asia Minor, I wouldn't be threatened by Arabia, and I can't ally myself with Arabia because you could threaten my northern borders. Also trade routes are good.

True...

Or I could help you in gaining Egypt and take none of it. I probably don't have much use for Egypt anyway (apart from an early Suez Canal, which I wouldn't know how to use ICly). Besides, I already have Libya and Tunisia.

What do you mean you already have Libya and Tunisia?

So would that mean that my West African app could be accepted or would there only be opened up for European apps?

I suppose we could accept your app at that time, although I am not sure why you wish to be a conquered nation.

United Federation


United Federation, you cannot claim land like that so quickly. You must have posts where you battle the natives and capture land. Also, it takes time to conquer that much land. Barely a month has passed since the beginning of the RP. You could not walk the length of land in Africa you claim to have conquered in that time. And you have not RPed any ships suggesting that you had other troops moving by sea. Also, it would take more troops than you have, especially with 300,000 in Portugal, and groups in the Americas.

Speaking of the Americas, while your claim thus far is fine, it is a little unrealistic. If you wish to keep it in New England that is fine, but very likely the first Spanish explorers hit the Carribean, South America, or Florida/Georgia region. It would likely be these areas that you would have a map of, so these would be the logical destination for colonies. In this case, your claim is fine, just a little odd.
