New Imperialism - AH RP v 2.1 [OOC, Signup]

[Forty Twoania]

In Italy, pick a side, any side. Would you support Italian Confederation, DK, or neither, and to which degree? Italy would offer you bits of land in Piedmont and Switzerland (think Arpitania) while I'm not sure what DK is doing.

The Dual Kingdom will be joining the Frankish sphere of influence/bloc and joining in a military alliance soon enough c:

Edit: plus we are on the side of the Pope, and Francia is fairly Catholic...

It is going to be strange if DK and Greece end up in the same sphere of influence despite our issues...

Basically, pertaining to the NGC.

They are allied to the Russians and the Franks. They are forming a Franko-Germanic Bloc at the Berlin Conference in September (which is like soon or now ICly) where the Dual Kingdom of Catalonia and Naples will be joining the bloc and hammering out a treaty of Egypt with the North Germans (Egypt is the NGC's Protectorate, there was a war that we started against Egypt and we sorta occupy all of the Egyptian Libyan lands and the entire coastline to Alexandria still). That's all I can think of off the top of my head pertaining to the NGC.

Damietta is currently under Greek control but I would be willing to transfer it to NGC at the Berlin conference in return for allowing Greek access to certain Egyptian Red Sea ports, NGC's diplomatic support for Greek Somalia, and the Coptics getting more autonomy under Egypt

Meeeh. A big war, but somewhat doubting it being the Great War.

It looks like it will involve the Commonwealth, France, Germany, Ruthenia, Bohemia and possibly Russia, the DK, Portugal, the CSA and Pallasia; sounds like a Great War if you ask me. Though I guess that depends on how the war turns out and such; for example whether or not the Wooden Wall will hold.

From Buj's comments, I believe, if he maintains his status as Portugay, will not be joining any blocs.

That was what he said a little while back, might have changed since then. Also, why would Pallasia and the CSA have anything to do with a potential war between Ruthenia and the NGC, which is the event I assume would trigger the blocs.

Cordial relations are desirable, and Bohemia would like to avoid fighting the DK if at all possible.

Per my treaty with the Germans, or the pending one, we are obliged by treaty to remain neutral if war breaks out between the Franko-Germanic Bloc and Portugay. As in, if a member of the Bloc attacks Portugay I don't intervene. If Portugay attacks a member of the Bloc I don't intervene. Now, if a member attacks the Commonwealth and Portugay sides with them, this is irrelevant bc they did not directly attack Portugay.

I wonder if I could have a similar clause added for the Bohemians. Besides, I believe the NGC intends to pursue cordial relations with you regardless. So I doubt they would mind if I asked for a similar clause.

@Forty Twoania

I know lol. Forced to remove the military from our spats and have to settle things the "civil" way. Absurd.

[Caltarania]

@Glitter; Pallasia still claims the throne of the Commonwealth, and the CSA is entering cordial relations with the Commonwealth. I presume that if the Commonwealth's forces were tied up in Europe, then Pallasia would take the initiative to strike at the New England and Newfoundland colonies.

Oh okay. I assumed we knew for a fact Pallasia and then the CSA were going to take part in the war. But that makes sense now.

We claim the throne, but not aggressively. More grumbling about how those dastardly rebels in the east and south are plotting against us

If we were part of any bloc however, krieg kreig kreig

[Bujahla]

Portugal isn't in any position to join any blocs for whatever has happened in all the OOC that I've missed so neutrality it is xD. I think imma post late tonight that briefly hits all the things I've missed and advances in Japan. But I also haven't read a shit ton of the IC which might be important.

Nah, just a chance. Though, the CSA is an objective that the Commonwealth is looking towards. They'd be a core regional ally of ours, if we could ever convince them to ally with us.

I know, but it was just a thought.

And I still wouldn't doubt that the bellicose members of Pallasian society would preach for war if the Commonwealth's main military was fighting in Europe.

Name: Regno dei Romani

To be fair ICD, it's a little late. The IC is in August, probably late August, and we have agreed Rome will fall in Early September. The only way you can do much of anything is if you backdate everything, which really makes no sense considering you are going to fall regardless.

I'm not entirely sure why Allen told you to apply for it, considering the above.

I was just going off of what Allen said, But news is in he will allow me to play Tuscany-Lombardy

Well the player is back as of today. He just posted a few posts up the page.

Also, you do have to consider Tuscany-Lombardy is currently helping me siege Rome and appears to oppose the Italian Unification movement.

I really need a better information source then Allen haha.

Exactly lmfao.

I don't mean to say Allen is scrambling to find support for his idea, but Allen is scrambling to find support for his idea. The original (and I guess current) T-L player opposed it, so he was looking for foreign backing. Everyone backed the Dual Kingdom, so I guess now he is looking to flip T-L to his side by getting you in it.

We would prolly be more concerned with the CSA. Any cassus belli within reason that Pallasia could get for a war against them would likely be utilized.

If we were in a block, however, that would likely change.

Honestly his plan would have worked if the previous player wasn't here , I would have gone kingdom of Sardinia all over you

Yeah but it wouldn't have. Considering you'd face a direct invasion from the DK, Portugal, and Bohemia and I'd get economic backing from Francia. Also the Sicilians are pretty happy within the Dual Kingdom and don't even speak Italian considering they speak Sicilian. Only place you might find strong support is Ancona-Romagna.

Edit: But none of that matters, as we had the original player.

Obviously, But does Sicilian means something differant from IRL?

Lost interest in maintaining T-L.

Yes. Everyone living in Sicily and traditional Naples is considered Sicilian ethnically and speaks Sicilian, which is even more different than modern Sicilian due to Catalan influence in the language.

Eh, not sure about that yet. I see little left for me to pick anyway.

Considering the roster has recently been emptied, there's plenty open. I think Baja made a list of interesting nations with a brief description as to why they are interesting. It is floating around somewhere. If you like I can find it and tell you know what's off it now.

[Aldelxane]

You could RP Yemen (the purple blob thing) and try to unify Arabia.

[The imperial canadian dutchy]

SO yeah i'm going to take up T-L, but not go all militaristic "Fuck you give me the fatherland plz"

[The Grand Republic of Hannover]

Ah mkay. Didn't know you dropped it. Looking for another nation?

There are some nations open in Latin America

I know I am biased because I am Brazil, but I do think the dynamics in Latin America are very interesting

Well, as I said you are currently helping me take out the Kingdom of Rome.

Also my Crown Princess is one of your king's daughters.
