Anyway, my app is edited, and I'll round up the history in a minute.

Research? We'll mainly be researching guerilla tactics and ways to improve vastly underdeveloped land (investment anybody?)


Actually, I just copied IOTL.

Frederick II was a Calvinist, most of northern Germany is Lutheran while most of the south is Catholic. :P

Also Reichsprovinz, which was a word I (think I) invented to describe the divisions.

Japan would be of great interest in helping you out.
Also, give us sloths, plox.

In return for Japanese investment in building tea farms and rice paddies, we would be glad to export a wide range of animals from our Amazonian-themed menagerie at cheap, low prices.

Hey,
"1730: The Austrian War
Bourbon mistrust rises sharply after losing the South American colonies. Increasing strife between Catholics and Protestants leads to The Battle of Santiago, in which Catholic and Protestant militias fight over Holy Site.
Bourbon Army steps in, Austrian noble Diego Vasquez, Count of Zamora claims the Spanish throne, launches another war. Decisive French Victory in 1734, after insurgent rebels are finally eliminated, along with Diego."
Is Santiago the one in Chile?

I just put 'Imperial Province' into google translate and Reichsprovinz was the best sounding thing it came up with :P

I think it's in Spain, most likely Santiago de Compostela or just another town named Santiago.

Probably the Spanish Santiago due to the fact it is basically a holy site of the Spanish faith/Catholicism.

Mhm.

So, do you get to enter Spain now or not?

Also, my religious situation has gotten weirder: turns out that privately, Frederick II was a Deist. xD

Oh, ok. I went through a bit more complicated of a process to make sure Reichsprovinz was also not derp-sounding in German

Anyway, who cares? :P I'll be creating my own administrative divisions soon; I'll need them to administer a land that could cover Europe and yet has not scarcely a percent of its population.

Ah, thanks. It was just in the same paragraph as stuff about South America, so I thought it best to check.

I should've known, though; I fought a battle at Santiago as France in 1000 AD RP. :P

Throughout my life I've always been able to enter Spain - my family has got a summer home there, they're just making horrendous queues to get into Spain recently. I've not been since a month ago or so.

Oh, I knew that when I checked his wiki page :P

More stuff on Frederick II;

From what I have gathered, it appears he was either gay or asexual (most probably the latter). He only had men at court though, so it's possible he was gay. This could be interesting. xD

Google Translate can get quite horrendously wrong, though.

OP, have you accepted my nation?

Nation Name: Kingdom of Zimbabwe
Capital City: Great Zimbabwe
Claimed Territory:In purple
Population: 9,127,584
National Flag:
Image


Head of State: King Mauringo
Head of Government: See above
Government Type: Absolute Monarchy
National Ideologies: Monarchism, Pro-Africanism, Free Trade, Western Ideas, Pro-Zimbabwe, Anti-imperialism
History: Zimbabwe was founded in the late 12th Century, as a number of tribes came together as the Kingdom of Zimbabwe. The capital of the Kingdom was made Great Zimbabwe, its great towers an ideal spot for the head of the nation. In the following centuries, Zimbabwe became very wealthy from the copper and ivory produced in it's middle provinces.

In the 1530's, the Kingdom of Zimbabwe expanded outwards into Africa, conquering much of the Mozambique areas. Zimbabwe expanded north into Tanzinia in the 1570's, accessing the Indian Ocean. In 1642, Zimbabwe set Southern Africa into its sights, as the King wished to control more of that area. The Zimbabwean Army ventured into Southern Africa, but encountered the Mthethwa Paramountcy, which was another strong African state. Zimbabwe went to war with the Mthethwa's, but lost to their fierce ways of fighting, ans thus were limited to the areas outside of Southern Africa.

In the 18th Century, Zimbabwe came in contact with European powers. Men from Venice, a nation far away in Europe, colonized the coastlines south of Zimbabwe. And this wasn't the only occurrence. All around the continent, various European powers began to conquer the African coastlines. And soon, the greater nations of Africa began to collapse, with their coastlines taken from them (and thus their contact with the outside world cut off). Now Zimbabwe stands as one of the last major kingdoms in Africa.
