Forge of Empires - AH RP [OOC/Open]

[Caltarania]

Oh, I should specify the roll of the "Vice-OP." Basically, he's the head Co-OP, but fancier. He has pretty much equal power as me but I do more of the regulatory work. He's in charge of history and stuff and if he gives a ruling on anything then it's good as gold unless I over-rule it, but I probs won't. He also fills in as OP in my absence and if I'm in a dispute with someone he decides stuff.

I see. I hope Alaskya has no resentments toward its former colonial master?

Good. I would like to discuss with you how you became independent? As i want our histories to match so that there is no confusion. Plus I would like to have your input because if effects both our countries.

[Reatra]

How many people do you think genoa has total? I can't figure it out...

Mkay. I'm thinking sometime in the 1812's they have a revolutionary war, but it'd be hilariously melodramatic.
I'm also thinking larger population due to ending serfdoms very early on, if that's okay with you.

[Gibberan]

I'd like for New Granada to be a former Aragonese colony instead of Spanish, but then it can't be called Granada, more like New Huesca or New Zaragoza or something like that...

Think The arrogonese were more focussed on the Med

Maybe the Spanish founded it but the Aragonese stole it?

I could see an Aragonese venezuela due to size.

What are Spanish-Aragonese relations like?

If they are sour, all the better. A Spanish Colombia New Granada and an Aragonese Venezuela would only give our two countries more reasons to hate each other.

This government complicated enough for ye' xD?

Government Type: Semi-Federal Parliamentary Democracy under a Constitutional Monarchy
Brief Explanation of Government: The government of the Dual Kingdom is, in fact, as complicated as it sounds. England and France are both home to individual Parliaments, in Middlesex and Ile-de-France respectively. The Monarch has properties in both cities, along with properties in Windsor, York, Orleans, Caen and Angers. These two Parliaments, when combined, make up the Parliament of the Dual Kingdom or 'le Parlement de la Double-Uni'. French and English can be used in either Parliament, with the overwhelming majority of MP's being bilingual, fluent in both English and French. The Parliaments are known as, individually, the Parliament of England and le Parlement de la France. The individual Parliaments decide on law for their respective regions. De jure they need royal assent, but this is rarely considering in the actual day-to-day workings of the Parliaments. The government is then made more complicated by the existence of the Royal Regional Assemblies, or les Assemblées Régionales Royaux. There are seven of these in the Dual Kingdom and they are, in no particular order; The Welsh Assembly, the High Court of Ireland, the Council of the North, the Breton Parliament, the Senate of Flanders, the Council of Normandy and the Aquitanian Assembly. They deal with regional issues of their said locales; for example, the Council of the North would deal with the subsidization of industry in Northern England, but would still have to adhere to the laws set by the Parliament of England.

I plan to have Catherine the Great, who because the French Revolution never happened (the Execution of the Monarch's turned her into a more conservative and autocratic ruler) stayed Liberal and implemented numerous reforms such as emancipating the serfs and modernization.
