I'm not a direct descendent, a branch descendent you could say. One of my ancestors married a Hohenzollern thus branching my family to theirs.

No. There is still a Prince of Prussia and a handful of Hohenzollern's left in the world. And since I'm not in the direct bloodline, I could not hold the crown.

Apparently the Irish are strong now because their expatriots will come back. Well considering the famine hasn't happened yet, it's still around 7 million people, so emigration has not really occurred

Anyway, checking the map I only see a few possibilities for applications. Brazil seems open, as does most of the Arabian Peninsula and heartland Anatolia.

Try to be Brazil and Second Incan Empire-Argentine Republic Alliance will FK you up

So basically there are no feasible options for normal RP'ing left, it seems.

Well that's difficult since practically all of Yemen is controlled by Ethiopia.

Can I reserve Denmark–Norway territories including Scottland?

Denmark and Norway: Yes
Scotland: No

You see Scotland is its own independent Kingdom as was affirmed through the history of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and the Netherlands.

I think there has been some confusion as to exactly what I approved the Byzantine Rifle as.

For one it can not be a full bolt action rifle just a very early prototype and not very mass produced since there would likely be a few problems that need to be sorted out as is with all prototypes.

I thought only early breech loading falling block rifles were allowed early? How does he have a Bolt Action in 1800?

OOC: *SECP said that the Byzantine Rifle is like an M1 Garand, approve by the OP; New Decius

THe M1 Garand was in use during WW2. I seriously doubt the OP allowed you to have such a weapon.
Its a semi-automatic rifle in the early 19th century. It was the FIRST semi-automatic rifle for fuck's sake.
