1380 After the Fall
Post Apocalyptic Alternate History RP

Links: IC | Map | Number Map | Theme
Lesser Links: Factbook | Maps Thread


OP Board:
OP – The Industrial States of Columbia
Co-OP's – Mesrane
- Lore Master - Vacant


OP Directives:

Hail Hydra :P


RP Description:
The world fell. In a series of great disasters, mankind used its great power not for creation and progress, but for destruction. Cities and empires fell, and the world slid into chaos. Nature, seeing its opportunity, used the hungry seas, swallowing the old coasts and drastically altering the world's climates.

Our world, though fallen from where it was, endures. The seeds of new society lay with man, and as the ages passed, new empires rose to fill the void of the old. Will you expand your nation in the spirit of peace and progress? Or will you seek blood skies to fill an insatiable lust for conquest. The choice, great leader, is yours...

Roster:


List of Nations:
-The Heavenly Empire of the State of Japan/Nihon-koku-Soviet Chernarus
-Theocratic Union of Deseret-The Greater Dutch Republic
-The Kingdom of Armaenia-Mesrane
-The Kingdom of the Leveant-Conwy-Shire



Rules and Regulations:
There are a fair few rules and guidelines for the RP, listed here. These following six are basic and should be easily understood and followed, and after that will follow more specific info that is more liable to change.
1. Obey NationStates forum rules
2. Obey the OP and those appointed as per their role
3. Make sure you are not metagaming, godmodding, numberspamming, or generally RPing in bad form
4. Have a couple of paragraphs a post and good grammar & spelling
5. Exercise common sense generously
6. Be active every couple of days at least


-The fall is left vague on purpose, but can be described as the culmination of nuclear war, pandemic, and natural climate change in the mid to late 20th century.

-The population of the world is around 600 million, with
-North America: 80
-South America: 45
-Europe: 90
-Asia: 290
-Africa: 70
-The Mideast: 25
*Code Word: Ananas

-The Worlds climate is warmer than our own, and corrosponding climate predictions apply. In addition, fallout zones may be referenced to in ones country creation (they do exist, but most would have cleared or submerged by now)


-Tech can be described as a hodge podge of various influences, but the majority of tech should be pre to mid industrial. Some more advanced tech (Such as Hydrogen airships), is allowed, others however (such as atomics, most petroleum based locomotion, jet engines, aeroplanes) are not. Basically try to stay towards a low high tech sort of application (Take simpler tech and see how far you can advance it).

More primitive tech would be recommended to some nations as well, and once a few larger nations are determined, the op council shall choose some areas reserved for this.

Other Information
Applications:
If you want to reserve land, you must use the following reservation. Reservations will last for 12 hours though you can appeal to the OP to make it last for a maximum of 24 hours. These reservations are meant to give you time to make your application or keep your area safe while AFK. These are not meant to be used to keep other waiting. You will not be able to have a second reservation (for the same area) unless you provide significant reason why.

After nine days of inactivity, your nation will remain on the map, but will be open for application (You may take your nation again if it is untaken by posting a fair quality post in the IC, but if another player takes it it is theirs until they cede it.)

Since there's been an immensely long time since the apocalypse, can our invented countries bear no resemblance to the old countries?

So we still contain some of the cities, but our language will be different and culture different and all that?
I haven't decided where to be yet.

Ja, it has been a long time, lol, go right ahead. You probably will want a diaspora sort of thing if you want no resemblence to local cultures though :)

I'm thinking of a nation that forms out of several cultures all banding together.

That's sounds like a great idea! I may do something like the HRE electing their Emperor.

I have a question, is the number map supposed to be the map of accepted nations or is it supposed to show pre-designed territories? As of right now it's the same as the "Map."
