It's not only that. I have already established in my application that the history of Japan and Asia are the same with a small time skip in Japan for the sake of simplicity of language. That is the only change. The Koreans didn't become... well 'Koreans' until 1000 years later.


Duly noted. That's hardly a very complicated issue, however. A few simple edits, and I'm sure we can have that sorted.

Tell you what, why don't I forfeit my place as Lithuania and settle in as South-Vict's vassal? If he is a king, I'd be happy to be a loyal count, duke or some such feudal flunky. I can give him a hand in writing simple, descriptive posts that'll help bring his RP properly to life. I'm sure he'll be writing decent posts in no time.

Who knows? It might even be fun. :)

There is two rival states on the Korean Peninsula who are at odds with each other. A vassal state in this scenario would be very unlikely. Sorry if I seem overly concerned about these things, history OCD I call it.

The two rival states are Silla and Balhae.

I'm aware of Silla and Balhae, Varra; but I don't think the political makeup of the Korean peninsula is really the issue here.

What is the issue is that we're here to create an RP together - to sit down, write a shared story and have fun - together. If South Vict isn't able to stick to the rules and perform according to our expectations, we shouldn't push him away or ban him. We, as decent human begins, should help him. Help him find the inspiration, gumption and willpower to create amazing stories, lively characters and awesome posts. Help him do and participate in what he so obviously wants to be a part of.

RPs benefit from that sort of thing. No, really!

I am aware of this. I hadn't made any point in saying that he shouldn't become a country in East Asia.

My point was there were many flaws to his original point, such as the peninsula not being near unified, and conflicting with my backstory. And I do not think a Vassal state would work due to the bickering of the Korean peninsula based countries.

In the context of an RP, facts are tools - something that helps us do what we do. The moment our tools hinder us, we should cast them aside.

Take Silla and Balhae, for instance. In this RP we, the authors, set the boundaries for what can and cannot work within the stories we create. We use our imaginations to create peoples, places and histories that never were. Wars that never happened. Futures that will never be. That's what so damn fun about this - it's all up to us. Historical facts, dead kings and ancient borders are tools we should use to inspire our RP. The moment they hold us back however, we must put them aside; as long as doing so doesn't break the RP's original premise.

Well, I have already stated in my application that the history of Japan/Asia remains the same except for Japan having overcome the challenge of a written language around 50-100 years earlier due to simplicity's sake.

So even if a person wanted to settle in Asia, they would have to be a country already established, due to my app's history being accepted.

Asia's History was the same up until now. At this point however, after getting new Nations, go nuts. Also Africa and the Americas are open for craziness.

True, but we must remain within reason. No Turkic tribes with 20 million people, or Sub-Saharan Africa with incredible architecture, that would break the RP. However, 6,000,000 Dutch rebels is acceptable.

Military: As a society organized along feudal lines, the Empire of Korea's armed forces are all characterized by a medieval cocktail of liege-oaths, blood and peasant levies.

Language: Korean, Manchu, Mandarin.

National Religion: Buddhism.

National History: Korea is a culturally cohesive, feudal society recently united under the righteous rule of the House of Seong. If Japan is the land of the rising sun, and China where the sun sets, then Korea is where it shines - bright and glorious.
