We've been gone for so long 2.0(OOC/Sign-up)

[Bering]

You know the light blue area? Yeah that's the area I picked...

Darn, well that is awkward...

edit: Wait you said the part that used to be South America, the part that the blue is in was Africa

[Whiteshore]

Nation/faction name: Euskadi
location: The coast just north of Lisbon river.
Population (no more than 50,000): 21'000
five cloned crop/livestock species: Wheat, corn, cows, horses, dogs.
five starting technologies: Advanced computing, advanced naval transport, advanced aeronautics, metallurgy, mining.
culture:Ibero-Gallic
objectives in this RP: To establish a diplomatic relationship with every nation/feud, and to become the richest nation between the european cultures.
Anything else: I'm basing Euskadi off the Basque Country, which is an "autonomous community" of northern spain, being pretty much the only spanish province that could afford a colony ship, their leader is Fernando Paramos Gasteiz.
plz don't kill me germany

[Bearon]

I'm ok with the current borders.

[Bering]

So I guess this is the rough map:

It's not final, I still need to fix the borders, but this is the rough position of everybody
I will have a cleaner map with names of the factions up tomorrow

[Whiteshore]

Bering,who do you think are the three most powerful factions here?

[Bering]

Bering,who do you think are the three most powerful factions here?

That is a tough call, going by a combination of tech and manpower:
You, Me, and Bearon,
but only for the moment, since we are all pretty close in size and all fairly distance from each other, anyone could take those spots once we start RPing

Why am I the most powerful faction?Due to my cavalry?

That and your high population

[Bearon]

And me?

[Bering]

And me?

Let me write the details out

[Bearon]

Well I guess having the technology to make steam powered ships and the ability to know metallurgy along with my almost impossible to access islands makes me the strongest naval force but other then that.

White has steamships too

[Bearon]

Yes but I also have modern energy production which means I have the necessary coal to power it the necessary designs to make it and the necessary builders to build it. Plus I'll be more spread out and it will be harder to attack then defend islands like that.

[Bering]

To be more specific:

White: you have a high population and you are in a good region where you can expand quickly. You also have rice which is a quick growing crops that needs little room, same goes for wheat, and coffee is a good luxury resource to have. You have steamships which will allow you to become a competitor on the sea and cavalry and weapons for the land. The horses also don't need minerals which is the falling of a lot of higher techs, they need metals to be built, while steamships do require coal and metal, they can be built out of wood and wooden ones can be powered by sail.

Bear: You have a high population, which is slightly off set because you are so scattered. But you're larger territory means that you have access to more resources that you might need. You have wheat and potatoes which are both good crops for growing. Dogs are good for hunting too, all that means that you will probably have a good populations growth. Your messenger pigeons and steamships (weakness described above) are both good means of spreading news and will give you an advantage in the current landscape. Furthermore your access to modern energy production will be useful if you can get the right minerals for it.

Bering: I have a high pop and a lot of room to grow in. Furthermore I am located in the north and near the ice, which are traditionally good spots for mineral and oil mining (lot of animals died there when it froze over and the minerals are harder to explain). These minerals plus my solar power mean that I am in a good position to industrialize heavily. I also have enough land to farm with wheat and potatoes which are traditionally good in cold climates. The Dogs will help hunt and act as good sentries against animals. Our firearms and metallurgy mean that we will able to defend ourselves and arm ourselves if we need to, especially with the abundance of metals. We also have two rivers under our complete control, one of which starts at the end of the tundra and one part ends at our far south and the other at our capital allowing us send information throughout the territory if we need to and it acts as a convenient landmark to follow. Finally our biggest issue is also a strength, we have several competing ethnic groups that all desire prestige in the nation, this will cause them all to compete aggressively to advance and work, but because we are united, not attack each other.

(just my take on it)

[Whiteshore]

I also have an efficient administrative system as well.

(just my take on it)

hmmm, good points, I guess I hold some same advantages as well but I am more of an inland power. should I expand north and gain access to the ice and therefore minerals? or go coastal and build a naval capable nation?

[Tiroladinien and the Litorale]

I also have an efficient administrative system as well.

If noone objects, I'd like to join this as well.
