1992: The Modern Scenario (AH, OOC/FINISHED)

[Novacom]

I got the idea that they wanted it due to the people celebrating and stuff. And I'm pretty sure the people within India could give less than two shits about annexing Thailand besides the corrupt officials. In fact, it's safe to assume that the would probably hold riots against it. As well, I doubt the efficiency of the Indian army against stopping insurgency.

Yeah, the Indian Union is not exactly a paragon of stability. This may not end well.

Certainly not given his current aggressive foreign policy

Posting today, anyone want to tell me anything before i start?

For the umpteenth time, can I consider my ammended application accepted?

What nation are you?

[Ptolemais]

For the umpteenth time, can I consider my ammended application accepted?

I replied to your ammendments a long while ago, but you never replied.

Ugh, damned forum, used the wrong draft with the wrong info.

1. Chile, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, Venulueala.
2. Just over 100 million by my rough count.
3. Seems fine.
4. You've a coalition of nations stuck between two expansionist powers, two of which (Colombia, Venuluela) have fought wars in which they've lost. Chances are they'll have a pretty decent military. Perhaps not top class, but something decent.

Plus, Centroamerica's toting three carrier battlegroups, whats the deal there?

1. Sounds good
2. Yep, once Eduador is added you get to roughly 100million
3. Great
4. I'd say you have a fair military, and limited production capabilities. It takes dedicated maritime capability to build warships, I think domestic production of frigates is more than generous. You can always start trying to come up with a destroyer with assistance from more advanced states (that's what Scandinavia is currently doing, and i'd like to think we are pretty advanced).

As said, Centroamerica doesn't have three carrier groups

If there are no further issues with point 4, then you're good to go.

[Limborg]

Can someone tell me the current alliances/wars?

Alliances haven't really been defined yet. I think we have:

NATO
GOPD (Some form of global NATO not currently implemented)
SDC (Not sure what's going on with this one)
Lezhe(sp?) (Turkey's aggressive alliance from what i've seen so far)
Non-Aligned Movement (soooon)

I see, thanks;)

[Sabara]

I'm not too keen to join the NAM anymore..

No doubt due to the absurd pace of the OOC.

As for #4, I'm fine with fairly limited naval capability, but I think that my ground and air forces should be fairly decent. At the very least regionally competitive. After all, the whole crux of my application is in response to Sydicallist threats to the north and Brazilian expansionism to the south-east.

Claims: Ireland
Capital City: Dublin

Government Form: Unitary State
Ideology: Irish Republicanism, Nationalism
Foreign Policy: Ireland remains neutral in most matters internationally. It maintains a solid relationship primarily with Western-European nations, with the exception of Britain, which remains a steadfast rival of Ireland. As per the inauguration of the Provisional government, Ireland has warmed up increasingly to Eastern nations, seeking to further antagonize the British.
Domestic Policy: Domestically Ireland seeks to establish stability and prosperity among all Irish people. Civil liberties are promised, and economic freedom is high. Government-controlled militias have ramped up efforts to rid the nation of leftist, and British-sympathetic elements. The former Irish Republican Army remains active, however considering the fact the majority of its leaders are currently on the Provisional Government Council, it serves as a wing to exert their personal interests.
Civil Freedoms /10: 8
Political Freedoms /10: 5 (for now, as per the transition of power)
Economic Freedoms /10: 9

Military Size: 39,560 Active, 23,455 Paramilitary
Military Description: Due to friendly relations with most Western nations, Ireland retains a fairly modernized albeit disorganized military. The military is fairly disciplined, however with recent unrest that led to the current provisional govt, discipline and morale have hit new lows.
Strengths and Weaknesses: Excellent ground-force capabilities, ruthless paramilitary force, fairly modernized technology. Poor organization, low morale, increased defection, navy is neglected, average air-force.
Law Enforcement: Irish Federal Inspector Department is the national department, primarily dealing with major crimes crossing county lines. Various smaller local agencies exist throughout Ireland.
Intelligence agencies(Domestic and Foreign): Irish Republican Army maintains an extensive domestic intelligence network amongst the numerous classes of people throughout the nation. The State Intelligence Agency maintains all foreign intelligence capabilities.


Description of Your Nation's Economy: Largely free-market state, maintains high economic freedoms with a strong entrepreneurial spirit. Agriculture central to economy, as well as extensive exports in machinery, pharmaceuticals, and chemical products.
Description of Your Nation's Government: Provisional Council temporarily holds power over Irish government. Legislature has been temporarily suspended until advent of new elections in 1993. Currently Provisional Council is made up of 10 officials from IRA, numerous business leaders, former political leaders, and senior military officers as well. Rebuilding nation after chaotic civil war is priority.
History of your Nation: Ireland's history remains largely the same up to just before WW2. With the rise of numerous nationalist and fascist movements throughout Europe, Republican elements within Ireland establish deals with Fascist leaders throughout Europe. A splinter group from the IRA is formed, the Irish Birthright Movement. IBM was an ultra-nationalist group that employed extensive terror campaigns against Irish government and British authorities in Northern Ireland. IBM became so hated even the IRA sought to eliminate them, putting the IRA in good graces with government. By the mid-50s, IBM was vanquished due to lack of support from former European partners, as well as a ruthless campaign by the IRA.

Civil strife remains issue as IRA turns its sights on government, utilizing extensive weaponry the Irish government granted them in their campaign against IBM. With advanced training, tactics and weapons the IRA is far more efficient, remaining in constant conflict with an increasingly authoritarian, paranoid government. IRA begins winning hearts and minds of citizens, who by the mid-80s have grown sick of government overstepping its limits. Protests turn into riots against the government, and in late 1991 the parliament is stormed, leading to the deaths and injuries of numerous politicians. Irish Republican leaders quickly seize power, alongside allies they had made in government, military, police and the private sector. Currently Provisional Council rules over Ireland, however vows to relinquish power after new elections in 1993.
Population of entire nation: 5,249,340

Is The White Horde still active? I need him to reply on the protests, but i don't even get a response on a TG anymore...

After all, the whole crux of my application is in response to Sydicallist threats to the north and Brazilian expansionism to the south-east.

We would happily sell you oil, i mean as yours isn't going to last forever.

FYI, Brazilian expansionism ended in the 80s when Uruguay was given back its independence. Now they are large supporters of peace and self-sufficiency

I doubt he is.

EDIT: Also, Limborg, we've been asked not to use the IC for the whole talking business.

We should just discuss the terms over telegram.

They will be moderately decent, and definitely regionally competitive. I was referring mostly to your domestic production capabilities, you aren't going to be building modern jet fighters or destroyers any time soon.

Oh if only you knew!

I don't have much in the ways for plans south, I'm more looking west and east now, still it'd be good to have a neighbor, even if it is an obviously inferior one

[Imperial Avantia]

Spain, your my first target.

Ahh, Le France. Would you like to enter into an oil for investment deal with the Caliphate?

Someone ELSE you mean, granted our Spain has kinda put his foot in it, but doesn't make it easier to stomach...

[Ugandavitz]

Russia wants friendship with Centroamerica. Feels reciprocal?

[Novacom]

Indeed we are, I'm sure we could heal the rift caused by Joseph Stalin and Juan García Oliver...
