Sure thing. Although America might not need any extra guns, we got plenty.

Nation Application


Full Nation Name: Imperial Empire of Ethiopia and Eastern Africa (the last part was included as an attempt to impose a sense of unity in the empire

Short Nation Name: Ethiopia

National Symbols: http://states-world.ru/arms/eth-ax1.png

Capital: Addis Ababa

Territory: http://imgur.com/pLzkTTM

Form of Government: A monarchy though growing movements to increase the strength of the parliaments are gaining traction

Head of State: Zewditu, Empress of Ethiopia

Head of Government: Habte Giyorgis Dinagde

Population: 45 Million, rapid population growth as poverty continues to fade

Military Description: Modern and at the level of numerous European nations with a total army of 120,000 men due to imperial wars and well into a modern navy - Has long been expanding with modernization and new training brought on by foreigners

Economic Description: Growing at an incredible rate due to the large Persian investments and of other wealthy Africans, rapid development and a growing financial sector

Ideology: Pan-Africanism

Allegiance: Unallied

Goals: Unite eastern Africa, promote Pan-Africanism

Point of Divergence: 1889

History: Like Ethiopia in real times, the 1880’s were marked by great economic reforms as the first African nation state rose. But unlike our actual time, the country’s investments were not stopped as it became a target of colonialism. In fact, numerous nearby nations, attempting to cut off the rise of each other, continued their support for the desperate nation. As economic rise continued, the new capital was born. Laid out like a European city, it stood above the rest marking an age that would come to be called the ‘Imperial Age’. Why? For it marked the first war in which the once landlocked nation gained its coast. It’s rulers, administering for the first time a Western style government, were amazed at its efficiency. Foreigners aided the movement training a ragtag army into a truly African army with Western tactics. But using their own knowledge, the army, while small, became effective in the jungles and saharas of Africa. Soon, the empire amassed a great land with equally great financial assets. Though modernization was far from over with nearly 30 million living in poverty and a mere 16 million living in urbanized areas, it was nonetheless a start. Now seated to influence the growing changes in Europe, the Empire stands as both a bastion of African strength and a target of imperiality.

Woahhh. Seems a bit map fillery to me. Annexing Eritrea, even Somalia is reasonable but annexing Sudan and Northeast Congo is quite the bit much.

If Japan is open, perhaps Xath should RP as Japan since he seems to have experience as Japan.

Finished my post. The Confederacy is now prepping for blitzkrieg, as well as having told the British, French and others to do the same on their signal.

Meanwhile, trying to strengthen relations with the Papacy and convince Mexico to stay out of the war with the Union in return for some clay...

Which will be subsequently claimed when the Confederacy recovers from the War against the North and begins Operation: Golden Circle.

The French were at the Raleigh Conference, so...

I guess they may pull a Switzerland?

Also, I made the Mexicans an offer they can't refuse: what's more valuable, one sparsely populated state/lost territory, or three vastly more populated lost territories, with probably higher Mexican populations within them than there are in Texas?

Charge in guns blazing, move my boats in through the Mississippi and fire all cannons, bombard the border guards on the Union side using cannons and such, and use cars/armored trains to bash our way through into their railways to invade using their own infrastructure.

Do it all at once, and do it out of nowhere so they have little time to react.

And then, voila, you have a BLITZ!

But we're allies with the Vatican and Austrians, damnit!

Anyways, with your support, you'll get Canada, France gets maybe-Quebec, the Union is shrekt and the western states temporarily go to Mexico.

If all goes according to plan, that is.

The French had the same idea and got 70,000 of their men mowed down by German machine gun fire in a single day during an engagement during the Battke of the Frontiers.

Without substantial air fire power or fast moving armored units you won't get far with that sort of attack, and those technologies are simply either unexplored or completely unknown to the military theorist of the time nor has technology progressed enough that to allow them to happen.
