1861: Slaves, Loans and Gun Boats, OOC, many avilable

[Elepis]

they were friends with France and UK, they could get their help in putting you down.




Interesting, i had never heard of them (you learn something new every day). What will happen when if I (France) or UK come knocking?

African nations include the Zulu, Zanzibar, Ashanti and Ethiopia

Here's a fun fact: They may have been friends with the UK, but I'm in a Alliance with the UK. And if France wants to support the Ottomans, then I'll finally accept the repeated Russian offers of help and let Russian influence flow through my country. A UK-Rumania-Russia coalition will, in fact, beat a France-Ottoman coalition. So I would advise you don't support any Ottoman attempts to invade me. As if they would, in their declining state. It would be far smarter for them to focus on their shit economy and corrupt leaders.

I would advise not invading Ottomans for a while though, they may be the sick man of Europe but they would still be tricky fro a small nation to take out

What if Osterreich helps?

May I be the Maratha Confedracy

They had been crushed by this time, however you could be:
Portugal
Netherlands
Brazil
Ottomans
Bavaria

or any other nation on the list of nations on the OP

If Österreich helps and recognizes my claims to Northern Bulgaria and North-Eastern Serbia, then they can have the rest.

If you pick the Ottomans, by the way, Österreich and I will utterly crush you. Austria-Hungary was a major Industrial center with vast reserves of Manpower. Like the Ottomans, only without diseases influencing their wars and not in decline. Plus Österreich really hated the Ottomans. They supported the Balkan League in the First Balkan War.

Netherlands would be good though. Major trade power.

Severely in decline, everyone hates them, tensions shimmering with Österreich and Rumania, corruption and disease are rampant.

But, hey, they still are an Empire.

[New Jordslag]

Will edit accordingly on order.

Name of Nation: Rattanakosin Kingdom (Siam/Thailand)
Population: 5,845,000
Population [Empire Total Estimate] (If you have an Empire): 6,000,000
Military Branches: Royal Siamese Army, Royal Siamese Navy
Country and Territories (Preferably a map): Territory
Head of State: King Rama V (Fictional version)
Head of Government: King Rama V
Government Style: Absolute Monarhcy
Primary Weapon (Rifle): Unnamed Siamese Muzzle Loading Rifle
Secondary Weapon (Pistol or Knife): Krabi
Standard Artillery: Unnamed Siamese Cannon
Most powerful Naval Vessels: Ayutthaya (Coastal Defense Ship)
History (Optional): History is mostly the same up to 1861.
RP Sample: 2016
429 (It helps to find apps)

There are at least 2,000,000, if not 2,500,000 people living in Laos, Cambodia, and Thai-owned Malaya at this time. That easily brings you up to Rumania's population.

What did the Dutch control as colonies?

Indonesia, Sri Lanka, several cities along the southern Indian coast, Sint Maarten, Saba, Sint Eustatius, and...

That's about it. The last three are Dutch colonies in the Caribbean, with the largest one having no more than 12,000 inhabitants.
