Colony Name (Your colony's official name): New Netherlands

Capital (Every colony has one.): New Amsterdam

Population (How many souls calls your colony home?): 313,000

Leader (Who, or what, runs the show?): Wilhelm Krol

Garrison (How many men and women in uniform can you muster?): 102,000

History (Self-explanatory. Write at least two paragraphs.): The New Netherlands was founded by the United Moon Company(VMC). The VMC was started by the Netherlands to start the Dutch colonization of the moon. New Amsterdam was established in 1872. The New Netherlands has never been in a war under VMC control. Things have started to change under Governor Wilhelm Krol.
Governor Krol has been looking to expand the colony at the expense of the VMC and foreign colonies. Krol believes the Dutch should start the race to take over the moon. This has been hard for Krol to focus on though due to recent internal problems in the colony. 4,000 people recently died from a yellow fever epidemic. The VMC was late twice with medicine shipments, which lead to the unnecessary deaths of 1,000 people. Because of this, a certain anti-VMC sentiment has risen recently. Governor Krol gave a speech taking te blame for the late shipments to take pressure off the VMC. There have been recent calls for his impeachment from office, but the Dutch crown has assured him of his place as governor. 2,000 professional Dutch soldiers arrived to help settle down the colony. Governor Krol has just started spreading propaganda of Dutch nationalism and calling for expansion on the moon. The colony is split on the issue.

Tag for interest. Also...

If this is a steampunk-esque role-play, then obviously the moon's resources have to cater for it.

Why not say that lunar valleys are treasure troves of virtually infinite coal and iron?

No.
A) Coal is formed from plant matter. Moon has no natural plants. No coal.
B) Iron, yes, it's basically infinite, but the moonies don;t have their own factories, mate. This isn't 2070 Moon Rising. They ship raw exports to Terra.

No because this is an interest thread and the app there was mentioned by the OP as a template.
The Empire of Handland wrote:Capital (Every colony has one.): New Amsterdam

Already exists.
Try "New New (Amsterdam)" 1, "New Amsterdam 2.0" "New Amsterdam 2: Lunar Boogaloo"

1 The brackets are important in order to differ it from "New (New Amsterdam)" which is also known as "New (New York)".

It did exsist at one point, but does not now. I was basing this off of Dutch colinization of America.

I may or may not have been joking, as I hoped had been implied amongst others by "New Amsterdam 2: Lunar Boogaloo".....

Hello there, Handland! I'm afraid TJS has a point. This thread is purely meant to gauge interest and gather creative input. Applications will be dealt with when-and-if the RP is officially started.

I understand. I hope my application will be considered if this does take off. You have an interesting concept here.

This doesn't seem like a bad idea. And since everything else I've been watching seems to have fallen through I'm free to say I have quite a bit of interest to invest.
The more space-opera like the story telling, and schizo the technology, the better!

Alright everyone, let's get down to business.

I've been quiet on this topic for a while, and that's a shame. My apologies. Still, I think this thread has confirmed what I set out to confirm. The idea of a steampunk flavored faction RP on the moon is actually something the NS community is willing to consider. That's fifty shades of awesome.

That said, I'm not too sure RL is actually going to let me kick this off the ground right now. With that in mind, I hereby declare that anyone who feels like taking this idea and running with it have my express permission to do so. Hear that, NS? If you want to make the moon rise - go right ahead.
