2060: The World of Tommorow. (OOC/PMT/OPEN)

[Ptolemais]

Guys, thats at least a decade away. Are we going to do a time skip?

I'm planning on beginning construction of a Lunar base in three years. I felt that was appropriate for a technocracy, especially since we are concurrently constructing a mass driver that should be done by the time we begin construction.

As long as I don't get bogged down in a war I should be on schedule.

Yeah, but I will blow all of your minds when I reach Pluto before all of you guys with my epic rockets!

[Ptolemais]

Yeah, but I will blow all of your minds when I reach Pluto before all of you guys with my epic rockets!

Except, that would not happen because you are not the only technocracy. All technocracy's, assuming they are focusing on space tech, should be able to launch at the same time.

And then everyone else, and then poor old India because it's a theocracy.

[Ptolemais]

It just means there will be fertile minds already waiting for you in outer space

It means everywhere in space will already be taken and India will be left with the dregs.

Assuming there will be a solar system war as WWIII.

[Mishmahig]

We could all share the moon?

I think we should create an international organization to handle these disputes, or at least set some ground rules.

Once the fascists get into space, there will be war.

Nonsense.

Japan won't do anything crazy in space. Like pushing asteroids into a decaying orbital path so they land on top of Japan's next foe. Not at all. Crazy talk.

I wouldn't stop it.

And so you other guys can catch up, I'll have some companies of mine sell you space tech.

[Meranthya]

Well then. If it's possible, I'd love a chance to take Switzerland and Austria! (I'd truly appreciate the Czech Republic, but I can live without it.)
... What's my status?

Correct your population and military to cope without the Czech, or maybe take France with you (It's so damn lonely!) and be happy with the Marine Nationale.

And please be a communist state or a theocracy. Poor old India needs some allies.

Yet another ideological enemy for India.

I will be your buddy. Lord knows I need somewhere to sell my products.

But India can't buy from godless technocrats. At least, not until the Brahmin have had their influence knocked down a lot.

Would India at least consider an alliance of convenience?

That, yes. Tami would be able to kick enough sense into the Brahmin for them to agree to a alliance to stave off China.

Brief (Paragraph) Description of your nation's history since the 2040s:

Fascism was never a dead ideology in Austria. During the catastrophic years of the 2040s, fascism was yet again seen as a solution to all the problems. Jobs would be created, a sudden influx of immigrants would be stopped, and the faltering concept of democracy would be removed. Friedrich Adler had for years organized a fascist party, highly emphasizing the integrity of German Austrians.
Supported by the people, as showed by opinion polls, Adler led a coup d’etat and took control of the government. He became der Adler aus Österreich, or the Eagle from Austria, both internally and internationally. Democracy was removed, with no actual elections justifying his rule. However, people were relatively happy with the situation, excluding many of a foreign background. Switzerland had suffered an equally harsh rise of fascism, as the German-speaking populace saw the success of Fascist Austria. Not long after, Switzerland merged peacefully with Austria and formed “Austria and the Alps”. Crammed between growing empires, they attempted to maintain a relatively peaceful approach. Despite the idea of "Lebensraum", they had little space to expand upon. Eyes were constantly watching for their enemies to mess up, for the Czechs to be merged, for Alsace-Lorraine to yet again become German. The army has later on become the top of the agenda, fighting the spread of communism and the new rise of democracy. Revolts are crushed, and the government manages to look glorious and powerful to it's country.

Brief (Paragraph) Description of your nation's economy:Despite a minor drop of the economy during the early years of the international crisis of the 40s, Austria could rapidly recover due to an organized ruling party. With the addition of Switzerland, the banking traditions of the Swiss Confederation would benefit the economy of the nation. Austrians can today experience a terrific life, with vacations and humane working conditions.

Brief (Paragraph) Description of your nation's society: Due to the state ideology, immigrants are nearly non-existent. Most are actually shot on spot, though those able to provide for society, or hold a pure ethnical background, are granted access. Clones make up a bulk of the working class and many even serve in the military, following orders solely from the ruling elite. Their growing numbers and importance in society are even contributing that they might soon be used as placeholders in parliament and within politics.
Propaganda is hammered into everyone's’ brains, maintaining a relatively obedient population. Revolts have occurred, though all members of said revolts have been executed.

RP Example: (Either a link to one of you previous RPs, or a good example of your RPing style.)http://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=265719 viewtopic.php?f=31&t=261506
Might be a long time ago since my latest RP on NationStates, however worry not. I’ve been RPing for many years now, and often include plenty of details. Here, I might provide you with both a general view of the nation (see it as a large gameboard!) and a view from Friedrich Adler, the ruler of the country. News and media will likely play a role here, highlighting events of importance.

Okay, I guess I can kinda work with that...

Any others?

[Post War America]

'afore I begin posting, would anybody be okay with a town of theirs being raided by techno-vikings? If so, do you wanna make a short interaction or just something I do alone? The whole raiding schtick is kind of important and in an introductory post I think I should bring it up.
