[British Empire Strikes Back]

You can invade irrelevant countries IE Somalia, Djibouti, but not major countries which other people may play IE Argentina.

No invasion of Somalia! It is British, and the rest of it is Italian at this time.

[British Empire Strikes Back]

I am planning on conquering Bolivia and Paraguay in the IC thread at the beginning of this RP!

If you keep invading countries it's going to prevent other people from playing.

I agree.

Also, isn't Bolivia communist or did that not happen yet?

[Democratic Peoples republic of Kelvinsi]

But, obviously nobody wants to play as Djibouti. Let us just set aside a "Do Not Invade" list. Until page 30 in IC, because nobody is joining after that.

History:IRL history with what happened in the previous RP.
Stalin died in 1953 and Khruschev emerged as First Secretary and Premier in 1953. He went along with his program sooner than before, allowing Hungary destalinize as the USSR,so the Hungarian Revolution didn't end badly. Hungary remained in the Eastern Bloc, while communism remaining the central ideology in the whole of the Eastern Bloc, with more power to the people and the USSR has improved its image and renown to the communists of the world. Khruschev has visited Cuba and has greatly improved relations with Fidel Castro. Khruschev has also attempted to normalize relations with Yugoslavia.
RP Example (A brief paragraph about something or an RP you may have been in):You know me

I am very conflicted. I want to be the USSR to follow the previous RP but I would also want to be Cuba under Castro and Che. If nobody applies, can I be them as well?

Accepted! You can be Cuba too, but I hope you can be more active than you were in a prior RP.

Several problems
RP sample?
Population to large.
Spelling mistakes.

[British Empire Strikes Back]

Well, how about my Deputy Prime Minister meets with your Deputy Dictator Leader?

The Deputy Premier is Anastas Mikoyan who is sent as a representative to North Vietnam.
Also, I don't support the Soviet System during Stalin era and following Stalin, except for the Khruschev era. Don't forget they opposed anarchists. However, I support Castro and generally leftist movements in Western Europe and Latin America.
Is Thatcher going to be appointed Prime Minister like in real life?

Well, he is still held up there? Khruschev can meet with MacMillan, just say it happened on a different day or something.

I am more of a Social Democrat myself, like Bernie Sanders or Scandinavian-style Democratic Socialist/Social Democrat.

Thatcher will be Prime Minister and I will keep my colonies for a while still. I will begin to give my colonies independence in a few pages, but some/most of them will stay British.

[Secular State of the Philippines]

Philippines under Byzantine ruling?

No, that's just the player's name. Would you be interested in joining this RP?

Would be but the Philippines now has its representative.

You could play as South Vietnam? Indonesia? Malaysia? Thailand? Taiwan? Australia?

[Democratic Peoples republic of Kelvinsi]

My colonies can get independence over my dead body(or the Carnation Revolution happens), depends on how long the war goes on.

BESB, did you write that whole speech yourself, or was it from real life? I don't think I'd be able to match that with something I write.

[Ebatonia]

Do you need to play as a nation or could you for example take the role of vice president Nixon?

[British Empire Strikes Back]

BESB, did you write that whole speech yourself, or was it from real life? I don't think I'd be able to match that with something I write.

Unfortunately, I did not write it myself. Harold MacMillan wrote that speech, and the photo of him in that post is from when he said it. Here is what Hendrik Verwoed (South Africa's Real PM's) response was:

Made to the South Africa Parliament on 3 February 1960:

The tendency in Africa for nations to become independent, and at the same time to do justice to all, does not only mean being just to the black man of Africa, but also to be just to the white man of Africa.

We call ourselves European, but actually we represent the white men of Africa. They are the people not only in the Union but through major portions of Africa who brought civilisation here, who made the present developments of black nationalists possible. By bringing them education, by showing them this way of life, by bringing in industrial development, by bringing in the ideals which western civilisation has developed itself.

And the white man came to Africa, perhaps to trade, in some cases, perhaps to bring the gospel; has remained to stay. And particularly we in this southern most portion of Africa, have such a stake here that this is our only motherland, we have no where else to go. We set up a country bare, and the Bantu came in this country and settled certain portions for themselves, and it is in line with the thinking of Africa, to grant those fullest rights which we also with you admit all people should have and believe providing those rights for those people in the fullest degree in that part of southern Africa which their forefathers found for themselves and settled in. But similarly, we believe in balance, we believe in allowing exactly those same full opportunities to remain within the grasp of the white man who has made all this possible.

Do you need to play as a nation or could you for example take the role of vice president Nixon?

I would prefer that you play as a nation. You can also play as an irredentist or nationalist organisation (ANC, ZANU-PF, RENAMO, etc.) Cabana plays as the US, so it would be his decision to let you play Nixon. I don't even think he was Vice-President in 1960.

Wikipedia claims he was, might be wrong. How long is this roleplay intended to last (in-game) and what's the timescale?

Oh I found something out. Swaziland is British still. So no invasion is needed. If you want Swaziland, just ask MacMillan.

Territory: Modern day Norway
Population: 3 590 000
Military Equipment (from a scale of 1-10): 4
History:
Norway's history begins with the dissolution of the union between the kingdoms of Norway and Sweden, which was set in motion by a resolution of the Norwegian Parliament (the Storting), under the House of Bernadotte, on 7 June 1955. Following some months of tension and fear of war between the neighbouring nations, negotiations between the two governments led to Sweden's recognition of Norway as an independent constitutional monarchy on 26 October 1955. (Hope that is okay). Further the nation has stayed neutral in conflicts. It is a proud member of both UN and NATO, and stays at their side. Speculation of oil in the North Sea has just begun, sea mapping bound to begin in 1962.
