Maybe you will have a small navy or use renewable energy-style engines?

Not if your region currently produces oil - any government when they first came to power would have found people to get those rigs working and given severely depleted population even small amount of oil would go a long way.

I have no idea about exact locations globally but these modern nations- definitely sure my region of France does (because I chose the region based on it)

I'm thinking it's midway between. I sort of pictured the broadcast as an automated message. If you want, I can delete that part of the post. I;m trying to come up with an interesting way to instigate contact between us, it doesn't have to be this.

No it's ok. I'll just write a post about the government and military being a little shocked before doing a quick response.

I mean assuming you wouldn't mind us raiding English-Wales south coast with impunity (unofficial understanding of course) and you will owe me one when I decide which country I want to take over.

Is there another arrangement we could come to? Perhaps I allow your ships to travel the North Sea with imputiny, and allow access into my ports provided you don't raid them? Maybe I give you the Faroe Islands? I'm occupying them temporarily.

But England is such a fertile raiding area; especially since you can sail there in morning and be back for dinner. If we can't raid English southern coast that will damage our economy and entertainment. How about just Cornwall, Wales and Ireland; you can reign in peace around home and use French raiders as scapegoats for British problems while we get to continue our culture of harassing British villagers - everyone wins.
I am not going to call you for raids (there's no fun in that) but for conquest - just not sure who yet. I have it narrowed down to three targets - Germanic north coast, Greenland/ Iceland (once we know they are alive and kicking) or sail across the Atlantic for recolonization.

I'm pretty sure logistics would make an invasion of Iceland and Greenland or recolonisation of America is impossible right now.
