Recorded History [OOC]

This is an excellent application, for maybe five hundred years from now- it seems the Filipinos didn't really use metal technology until about 500 BCE, and didn't form anything larger than nomadic bands until about that period. Having a vaguely centralized government and cities five hundred years before villages formed comes across as iffy.

I think of it more like the greek city-states period. Hayme is the lead tribal center just because their able to assemble a force when needed. The spearheads aren't metal either their made from stone as for the villages their really just fortified tribal areas. A more advance state like China or Korea would outlcass us by leaps and bounds.

Sure, sure, but the Greek city-states certainly worked with agriculture; that's the reason they formed cities. The Filipinos won't do that for five centuries, six even. Forming a city before sedentary food production is all but impossible, unless you're only talking a holy site where hunter-gatherers congregate during "x season".

Has to be that our only other source is fishing.

Yes, yay!

Because without the experience and technology gained from conquering the New World Europe would never become the most powerful continent!

I think they could still conquer the Americas. The lack of Native immunity to diseases couldn't be helped.

IRL the New World wasn't really conquered until far later than we mostly think. The last Inka rebel leader died in the mid 1700s. The Mexicans revolted from Spain not to make their own country of whites, but to go back to the days of native rule.

I mean, except for America.

But look at how hard they worked to genocide the natives?

Lothair, sorry to be a pain, but Xelyrion has already been accepted by Allen - and he occupies most of Modern Greece (including the Peloponnese)

Screw it; here's the map of Accepted Roster nations that Allen has failed to put on the OP for a few days now:

M.A.P.

Thank you for this it help tremendously now that I can see most of the borders.

Uh, The Orson Empire? I just wanted to say that I'll be scrapping the nation in Sinai, since it wasn't accepted right away and I don't want to put a lot of work into a nation that'd be taken over right from the beginning. That, and I have a different idea that I like. I hope you understand, sorry.

Alright, thank's for telling me.

I was thinking more along the lines of a group of loosely united tribes of the same culture, residing in the Horn of Africa

Something like the Swahili City-States? sounds cool.

We could trade if you wish.

Allen, he who be sleeping.

He who be sleeping at 3pm AEST, and has been thus so for a solid 10 hours

Yes, we could trade, if you ever need more food, then they could probably give you some. They have enough with at least four kind of independent tribes collecting food, I'm sure they can spare some

Sounds great.

If anyone's in Far East Asia do they want to visit the Hayme if I get accepted.

Were there ships capable of reaching the northern Philippines in this era?

Maybe some of the :not Polynesian: designs, they were getting pretty spread out.

At most I would say from Indochina or Indonesia.

Yeah, just not as a usual thing.

Enough people reached Australia to have a viable population, and that was 49,000 years ago.

Would you be interested in Cyprus Bronze trade if i am accepted ?

Oh no, I get that- but I'm presuming the crossing is still dangerous enough that regular contact isn't a thing. There's a difference between the technology to occasionally carry lucky migrants to new lands, and the technology to maintain ties between islands. Only one in a hundred ships has to make it for migrations to work out, but merchants and traders don't take such risks.
