True. That sucks, I suppose :/


Well to be fair you did loose the war lmfao.

And I think any of your loses were minimal, if anything the Frenchies took the blow for you.

Just an fyi I had to take Belgium out of the currency union between Belgium (and Luxembourg), Switzerland, and France and abolished the Belgian franc and replaced it with the Belga (all of this actually happened in 1926, I just made it earlier due to civil war). I am attaching it to the British pound as the Belgians actually did, but hope to attach it to the United States Dollar, mainly bc Conference of Brussels and such. Plus, the Columbians are not really suffering from post-war economic woes like really any European nation is.

All is found in the third segment of this post about de Vil's reforms.

If anyone who is well schooled in economics notices anything that would well not make any logical sense, please let me know.

Also if you did not pick up on the meaning of de Vil and the intent for the character by my OOC comments, the second segment should do that for you.

BUt USGA is going to be the United States of Great Austria yes? Interesting if that is going to remain a monarchy. Not a bad thing, just interesting name choice per say.

In theory, I suppose, it's mostly based on US federal system, just with a hereditary president-for-life. I considered United States of Ciscarpathia, but Columbia is USC. Maybe Federation of Ciscarpathia?

There's also the whole Danubia thing. Maybe the Federation of Danubia? Or the United States of Danubia? However, if you wanted a United States why not do United Kingdoms, United Realms, etc. However, Federation sounds much better (plus we largely lack those).

Ciscarpathia sounds good if you no like Danubia.

I dunno, I find Danubia/Transdanubia to be fairly overused.

nitpicks;
If by "Seheime Kracht" you meant to say "Secret Force," in Dutch/Flemish the word for secret is "Geheim" (pronounced chxchxhcxhchxh-eh-haim) while "Kracht" typically refers to a natural force, e.g. gravity, or strength. "Geheime Dienst" (secret service) or "Geheime Politie" (secret police" or, huehuehue, "Staatsveiligheidsdienst" (State Security Service - Stavi) might work better.

Not like I have anything more important to complain about. :p

As for the currency standardisation, if the Belga is still a gold-backed currency, I'm not sure it's particularly relevant, since the rate of exchange will largely be determined by the value of the gold rather than the currency inherently.

Of course, in Germany, the state issuance of gold for currency might break down soon >:u

I am pretty sure you lost some lands in Africa - namely like the Nigeriaish area. Maybe you did not, I am unsure. But I know the Frenchies and Italians both lost some of their colonies.

Uh, Nigeria itself I got before the war, unless you were referring to something else.

Well the USGA was planned by Franz Ferdinand, so having it be a monarchy isn't really far-fetched at all.

Danubia sounds fine. Trans/Cis(Danubia) aren't a good idea though, because it's on both sides. Ciscarpathia... eh, isn't the greatest, but would do at a pinch. Bohemia still sort of messes it up, though. I think Danubia would be fine, or even Balkan (though that's probably bad luck).

On an even more serious note, the King and Queen's opposition to the States-General will not sit well with the Dutch public.

No, the King and Queen will replace the States-General with a more public senate. Which includes representatives from the poor.

Bwah, the States-General has been a part of our politics since 1600. Why not just change the workings of said States-General? Bicameral legislative power held by the people-elected Second Chamber and the province-elected First Chamber or Senate. Will fix all yer problems.
