Current Head of State: His Majesty, Achille, King of Inodey, Head of the Commonwealth, &c.
Current Head of Government: the Rt. Hon. William Fielding, Prime Minister of the Kingdom.
Current National Religion(if any): None. The most practiced religions are Christianity, Buddhism and Māori Folk, although millions more practice Inodeyan Folk, which contains elements of many faiths, but is not a proper religion despite having a Dìad (Pope).
Population: 73, 500, 000.
Economy system: Pound (IP/£)
Economy(from 1-10): 8.
National Ideology: None. Current Government is liberal conservative (centre-right).

Nation summary: The POD is that the Declaration of Independence of New Zealand is not corrected by the Treaty of Waitangi. The King of the United Kingdom is recognised as the Protector of New Zealand, whilst the nation was technically independent and it had chosen a King of the Māori, Chief of the Chieftains. Intermarrying between races was not uncommon. After the British Monarchy fell in the United Kingdom, a large portion of the British population came to New Zealand and Inodey along with their King, George V, who married the Queen of the Māori, Maia Te Aroha Tingitakawa. Their great-great-grandson is our current King, Achille, a young man. During the 20th Century, New Zealand set itself about trying to be the world's wise, older brother - peaceful, prosperous and trying to police all the actions of every other nation. The UK is now excluded from the Commonwealth, as agreed upon by the Royal Family, and New Zealand is regarded as a successor state to the United Kingdom as much as Britain is. The King is also the Head of State of many countries around the globe that were once part of the British Empire.

40 million soldiers? I say that is way to much. Even for your damn pop. I mean, they would be well armed and you would have to feed them, arm them, and pay the costs so I wouldn't expect a lot of growth if you had 40 million soldiers.

[JRR]

I agree , I was aiming high to start out, I am India which has a large pop so I was seeing what I could do. ill lower to 20 see if people think thats reasonable.

Nation History Summary:

-In 550 BC, Cyrus the Great from the state of Anshan took over the Median empire, and founded the Achaemenid empire by unifying other city states. The conquest of Media happened as a result of what is called the Persian revolt, which was initially triggered by the actions of the Median ruler Astyages, and quickly spread to other provinces, as they allied with the Persians. Later conquests under Cyrus and his successors expanded the empire to include Lydia, Babylon, Egypt and the lands to the west of the Indus an Oxus Rivers. Conflict on the western borders began with the famous Greco-Persian Wars which continued through the first half of the 5th century BC and ended with the Persian withdrawal from all of their European territories. The empire had a centralised, bureaucratic administration under the Emperor and a large professional army and civil services, inspiring similar developments in later empires.

-In 334 BC, Alexander the Great invaded the Achaemenid Empire, defeating the last Achaemenid Emperor Darius III at the Battle of Issus in 333 BC. Following the premature death of Alexander, Iran came under the control of Hellenistic Seleucid Empire. In the middle of the 2nd century BC, Parthia rose to become the main power in Iran and continued as a feudal monarchy for nearly five centuries until 224 AD, when it was succeeded by the Sassanid Empire. The Sassanids established an empire roughly within the frontiers achieved by the Achaemenids, with the capital at Ctesiphon. Most of the period of the Parthian and Sassanid Empires were overshadowed by the Roman-Persian Wars, which raged on their western borders for over 700 years. These wars exhausted both Romans and Sassanids,which arguably led to the defeat of both at the hands of the invading Muslim

- In 750 the Abbasids succeeded in overthrowing the Ummayad Caliphate, mainly due to the support from dissatisfied Iranian mawali.[67] The mawali formed the majority of the rebel army, which was led by the Iranian general Abu Muslim. After two centuries of Arab rule semi-independent and independent Iranian kingdoms (such as the Tahirids, Saffarids, Samanids and Buyids) began to appear on the fringes of the declining Abbasid Caliphate. By the Samanid era in the 9th and 10th centuries Iran's efforts to regain its independence had been well solidified.

-In 1219-21 the Khwarezmian Empire suffered a devastating invasion by Genghis Khan's Mongol army. Mongol violence and depredations killed up to three-fourths of the population of the Iranian Plateau, possibly 10 to 15 million people. Some historians have estimated that Iran's population did not again reach its pre-Mongol levels until the mid-20th century.Following the fracture of the Mongol Empire in 1256 Hulagu Khan, Genghis Khan's grandson, established the Ilkhanate dynasty in Iran. In 1370 yet another conqueror, Timur, commonly known as Tamerlane in the West, followed Hulagu's example, establishing the Timurid Dynasty which lasted for another 156 years. In 1387, Timur ordered the complete massacre of Isfahan, reportedly killing 70,000 citizens Hulagu, Timur and their successors soon came to adopt the ways and customs of that which they had conquered, choosing to surround themselves with a culture that was distinctively Persian.

-In 1923, A civil war brought down the the Persian Empire, and made it's side fall to RL Iran. There was no official government but this era of the nation's history saw around 4 informal leaders. This era also saw alot of farming growth as farmers began to search for land to grow wheat and corn. In 1938, a official republic was setup- the Republic of Persia.

-1965, the Republic of Persia began a massive military buildup, causing much aggression towards the nation. After about 5 years of tensions among the middle east Persia invaded Oman, Yemen, Kuwait, and the UAE. They quickly defeated the opposition and annexed the land. While they continued to build thier military, they invaded other nations, they invade and annexed Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, and the mainland of Saudi Arabia. This marked the beginning of a new unofficial Persian Empire.

-In 1987, to avoid military confrontation, The Western half of Kazahkstan was given and annexed by the Persian Republic. This would bring on the renaming of the republic to the Democratic Republic of New Persia.

-In 2001, After several years of high tensions, The DRNP invade Iraq, The Persian Armed Forces underestimated and were defeated by the Iraqi militias. In 2005, a now revised invasion plan was carried out. After 4 years of intense war, the final battle of The Persian-Iraq War was ensued. The Battle of Baghdad was the bloodiest battle of the war 17 days, 4098 deaths, and 7000 injuries. Massive destruction was caused in the final week, the Iraqi Capitol Building was destroyed, almost the entire infrastructure was destroyed.In 2009, the Iraqi regime was toppled and Iraq was annexed by the DRNP.
