Accepted but no to the ICBMs. I mean something not OP as well. I mean like a tech path that revolutionises your nation alone.Epraria wrote:I am going to give this a go.

Yes and no, I mean tech that is unique to your nation that can benefit it Militarily and Domestically

Largely unchanged from our history until after the reign of Ashoka. Although the empire Ashoka creates does not outlast him for long, his influences extend throughout Indian history, particularly in the field of political honesty and equality. Between Ashoka and the nearby Babylonian democracy the traditional caste system falls into disfavor. India eventually reunites as a democratic Federation, absorbing much of the territory Ashoka's empire conquered given their now deep historical and cultural ties. Throughout this time the people of India have leveraged their central location between the East and Europe/Africa to become a major economic power, maintaining one of the largest merchant marine fleets in the world.

No to that population, otherwise accepted. Maybe 100 million max, cause it is just Italy.Neros wrote:Nation Name: Greek Empire

Government form, History and Tech is good, but Population, I'd say add up like Everything South West of European Istanbul. Here's a list of nations, Croatia, Serbia, Romania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Kosovo, Albania, Greece. Cause Greece moved North West and a little bit east. Crimea is WAY too far. Armenia, I wouldn't say so, cause then we still have the Byzantines/Ottomans

Oh, alright. Sounds good. Do you have a map of the world already drawn up? If we never get a Byzantine, I'd love to have parts of Anatolia due to the Megali Idea.
On the population note, Scandinavia has 200,000,000 people when it's population has always generally been low (as a whole, it's about 25 million people right now) so I was thinking that populations needed to be raised on that percentage, which is about 800%. I'll amend it nonetheless.

Transport by sea is still the most economical way to move things about (in ancient Rome it was more economical to transport grain from Egypt than to move it overland from farms on the Italian peninsula).
One of the initial reasons for Africa being colonised was the need for safe ports and resupply points along the trade routes to Asia. Since that hasn't happened here there must have been a reason: while the prolonged peace would have made the 'Silk Road' overland trade route fairly reliable, and transferring goods from the Red Sea to Egypt and then Europe would suffice for a time, I can't really see a reason why something like the Suez canal wouldn't have been built.
I don't want to seem argumentative, but I do want people to be on the same page so there's less chance we'll need to retcon things if it turns out they've been basing their actions on mutually exclusive assumptions.

I understand what you mean, but they probably still built them in about 1700/ 1600. I believe that flight would have been the option they used by that date.Epraria wrote:Scandinavia is of course the nordic nations, Greenland, iceland and Finland but would it also include Murmansk oblast, Karelia and any north American colonies?
*facepalms* it's in the name, Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Finland. No to the American colonies, because no Europeans, Africans or Asians have yet to go there.

Have you forgotten that the vikings colonized Iceland and Greenland? So in all technicality Iceland and Greenland should also belong to me.

Iceland seems reasonable to me since it's relatively close to Europe and was even more hospitable in the past. But if we say that the ships sent further west from Greenland to NA were lost for whatever reason, I can imagine Greenland being deemed too far away, too unpleasant, and potentially too hazardous to bother establishing a presence in the past. That said, given that there is supposed to have been a bit of a land grab in the last half century, an outpost may have since been established.
@Red, So what is used In terms of cargo transport besides road and rail? Massive dirigibles? Sub-orbital cargo ships? Since one of India's advantages is it's large transport fleet its sort of important to me
