I have lots of grains and fruits too. Do you have anything that we can't grow?

Damn.

Hot air balloons?

Hmm... we could do with some gold, silver, salvage from the old civilisations, I suppose?

[Reatra]

Damn.

Hot air balloons?

Hmm... we could do with some gold, silver, salvage from the old civilisations, I suppose?

Yes, Silver from Nevada (just roll with it, it was there once), gold from the totally not populated valleys (farmers? I only see RICHES), and maybe I get stuffs. Like supping chocolate and coffee, and cocaine.

Omigurd Cocoa+Coffee+Cocaine=best berserkers ever

We'll call their regiment the CCC

So, in all seriousness, we probably don't have cocaine, because we lack the chemistry knowledge and stuff. We would probably grow coca leaves which you can chew and stuff, though, and we'd definitely still be up for growing cacao and coffee, which take less processing. Especially cacao. We could trade those as cash crops, in addition to our own produce of some types (e.g. plantains) for Californian precious metals and some of your crops (maybe cotton?)

Homeland Population: (population of everyone considered a citizen): 8,000,000
Imperial Population: (include population of colonies) 200,000
Capital City: Yerevan

Government Info
Government Type: (ex. The USA is a Presidential Constitutional Federal Republic): Administrative Monarchy
Brief Explanation of Government: (explain all the complex/unique stuff that can't be described in the type section):

Armenia is ruled by a monarch that exercises considerable, though not absolute, power over the country. His power is limited by the Zhoghov, or Assembly, a council of advisers attached to the monarch's court. While it's primary purpose is to advise the monarch, a super-majority (10 out of the 15) may overrule any decision a monarch makes. In addition, the monarch may only appoint the head of the Army, Navy, and Intelligence while the other 12 positions are democrat. Councilors serve 5 year terms and may be reelected hypothetically infinitely, while the previously mentioned military heads may be removed by the monarch at any time. Provinces are governed by Assembly-approved governors who serve for terms of 7 years. These governors may serve a maximum of three terms, or 21 years. The power of the Armenian Apostolic Church has been considerably reduced by the Saroyan Dynasty over the past half-century, and while no longer a political force that was once second only to the monarchy it does still wield some political clout, mostly manifested in the opposition LCP Party. (Lord's Christian Party).


Ideology: (Refer to this) Christian Nationalism, Free Market, relative Isolationism, growing Republican sentiment
Leader/s: (Head of State, Head of Government, etc.) King Tigranes Saroyan

Population Info
Brief Description of your people:
Religion: Armenian Apostolic Christian 79%, Russian Orthodox Christian 12%, 7% Shia Muslim, 2% Sunni Muslim
Ethnicity:
Main/Accepted Culture(s): (ex. IRL-UK would be English, Scottish; only cultures that are dominant and the gov't favors): Armenian, Georgian, Azeri, Russian (The few that there are)
Other Cultures: (ex. IRL-UK would have been Irish, Welsh, etc ; cultures that aren't accepted by the gov't/people) Persian

Military Info
Army: (branches, number of troops, quality of army, etc,)

48,000 Active, 80,000 Reserve. Mainline infantry consists of professional or semi-professional Gustavian regiments with 600-700 musketeers and 300-400 pikemen. Elite Georgian Lancers make up the Army's force of charge cavalry.

Navy: (branches, number of troops, quality of navy, etc,)

25,000 sailors, 3,000 marines. The Armenian Navy is primarily built for coastal defense and action in the Mediterranean, not in the open sea. As a result, the Navy primarily consists of frigates and swift sloops.

Other Info
Brief Description of your Economy:

The Armenian economy largely leans on the mining of gold, silver, and iron in the Caucasus Mountains. Subsistence agriculture dominates Armenia's territories in former Russia while Fishing is a big industry off the Crimea and in the Caspian Sea. Armenian merchants hope to gain consistent entry through the Bosporus so as to expose their goods to untapped Mediterranean markets.
Goals: Black Sea dominance, trade in Mediterranean, not sure what else, but stuff

History:

Armenia fell into a brief period of anarchy following Yerevan's baptism by nuclear fire. The government had been largely annihilated with Yerevan's destruction, and a military junta seized tenuous control of the country following a year of lawlessness. The junta reclaimed the wayward region of Nagorno-Karabakh while Azerbaijan still reeled from the bombs. A semblance of order was reestablished, and for a time it seemed as if things might return to normal a few decades down the line.

But it was not to be so. The Crimson Flu swept through the country, killing 300,000 and overthrowing the already unpopular junta. Armenia descended into darkness as civilization died with a final whimper. Only silence reigned over the Ararat Plain. Savage tribes hunted and scavenged across the country, eking out an existence in filth and squalor. Isolated groups of survivors would do their best to live in vestiges of the old world, but the old world had died and with it had gone the sense of advancement and achievement. Now there was only chaos and a seemingly unending feeling of defeat.

Over the next century however, something approaching order was restored to the country as these groups of survivors grew and made new, permanent homes atop the ruins of the old. These independent communities established ties with one another through the League of Vanadzor, which by 150 encompassed the whole of the country and spread to several Georgian communities as well.

It was to this landscape that the mysterious Astadoor arrived from the wild wastes of Persia in 175 AF. He did not bear the title 'Prophet,' though this was bestowed upon him some years after his death. Astadoor, who's ethnic origin remains uncertain, brought with him only a Bible and a history textbook of the old world. He began preaching throughout the League the need for a resurrection, one that would restore to the region old world values and old world peace. He was dismissed as a creep and a madman for much of his life but gained an excellent reputation as a healer and philosopher. He gained numerous followers in the last few years of his life but died in 217, leaving his Christian Resurrectionist movement leaderless.

While continually dismissed by the leading Councilmen of the League, there was one among them that listened with fascination as he began to plot. Gavril Saroyan, representing the town of Vardenis, began to militarize his city-state, using tactics derived from Astadoor's textbook. Vardenis advanced very quickly into 15th century technology while the rest of the League's cities stagnated in 13th century technology.

Vardenis's waxing power spurred the states of Artashat, Megri, and Yegnag'zor into an alliance against Vardenis. This tension culminated in the War of 231 in which the triple alliance was crushed by Vardenisite forces at the battles of Sisian and Yeraskh, mostly thanks to Vardenis' crude artillery and pike regiments. All three states opposed to Vardenis lost over half their territory and had to make numerous economic concessions to Vardenis. Yegnag'zor was completely annexed.

The League fractured following the war as Vardenis next conquered Hrazdan, Nakchi and Alaverdi, by 240, bringing the whole of Armenia under Vardenis and effectively destroying the last vestiges of the League of Vanadzor. Gavril Saroyan renamed himself Tigranes in honor of the ancient Armenian king. His last name Saroyan became the name of the royal dynasty as Tigranes Saroyan became the King of Armenia. Tigranes continued his conquests into the 250's, bringing the whole of Azerbaijan along with several Georgian provinces under Armenia's dominion before his death in 257.

The next several kings focused more on domestic affairs, crafting a strong and stable state. Artaxias continued the conquests of Tigranes; by 330, the rest of Georgia and numerous Russian provinces had been added to Armenia. Orontes II established a colony in the Crimea and conquered several provinces in northwest Persia. Christian conversion programs were put into place; these led to numerous Muslim revolts and a civil war in 581, but ultimately Armenia remained intact with these conquered territories firmly under its control by 600. The nation was democratized somewhat under Tiridates III and the National Council was reformed.


Armenia is currently ruled by Artaxias V, who seeks dominion over the Black Sea and trade in the Mediterranean.

Finally finished.
