Are the Brits open? If so I'd like them reserved

Someone was the brits and they made a post like 3 weeks ago, but I havent heard from them since so they are open. France is also dtill open, didnt you originally reserve them?

EDIT: Apparently there is already a France so nevermind, coulda sworn he was going to apply as Argentina but whatever

And I agree with Chewion, these posts need ground rules. From now on, you need a minimum of two paragraphs in your posts, and you can't just straight up quote another post in the IC and reply to jt that way. If you want to address another nation ir react to something another nation did, you can write that nation a letter or you can have your leader make a speech, or something along those lines. I didn't expect so much stuff to happen and now it's almost impossible to know what is going on.

Also I thought this rule would be self-evident, but you are NOT allowed to post in the IC unless your application has been APPROVED by Apror (or me if Apror isn't here)

Has anyone taken Russia? If so, can I reserve Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Iceland, and Greenland?

[Hothnia]

After 23 years of concentrated funding on the navy, I'm sure even Belgium could grow a navy that size. ( To respond to France in IC)

You can reserve one of those countries, actually you would be able to reserve Sweden and Norway since they were still united at this point

No Argentina is right, that navy is borderline as good as the United Kingdom's. A navy of that size would not be able to be sustained by belgium's economy, nor would they need a navy that size since Britain protects them. A navy that size would easily bankrupt Belgium, nor would it even be tolerated by the Belgian people who are very averse to war at this point in time. The manpower a navy like that would require is incredibly high too, it's just not possible. You're going to have to change that

Also, SINCE WHEN IS IT FUCKING 1913?!?! I wasn't gone for that long, when the hell did 23 years pass?!?!

No, Belgium could bearly have supported a pre-dregnought, i doubt they can have (or even crew) 17 dregnoughts

Two is a little hard for some people. One paragraph(5 sentences) should be easy enough but still be long enough.

There are two dreadnoughts and 15 Armoured battleships. Plus a majority of Belgiums warships were built by Germany and Belgium does have a large economy for a nation so small. Belgium could support the warships, especially with German help. And the Royal Navy and German Navy had so much more than that, the tidbit I put in is around the size of the confederate navy from my estimation.

Also y'all know that the troops near Russia have been there for decades. They were the IRL defenses that were in the East for years before the war.

Russia is taken. You can take one of those Nations, not all of them, and if that's isn't powerful enough, we need some big players.

*Army modernazation intensifies*

I mean you can maybe get your new coats to half your troops in that time. Keep in mind trains were the main transport system.

Well, at least I've spent so much time preparing for round two! Time for an industrialized Aouth to do its work!

Yup. Japan too.

I have a problem with Belgium's Navy size. The reason why is it's basically near Great Britain levels, that's why. Not only that, it's bigger than Germany's in the period. It's going to be lowered drastically. It's not the economy, it's the fact your Navy is bigger than someone say France's Navy. It need to be lower than his at least, whatever it is. The only person to become relatively close to Britain levels is Germany. That, or Germany you need to lower you ship level to accommodate for all the help you gave Belgium.

I don't think the UK would allow Belgium to have a navy anwhere near as big as mine

I ain't lowering crap. I helped build them ships I didn't sell them mine.

What constitutes as help to basically make them third most powerful Navy? I don't buy that. I really don't buy that. I got help from GB, the strongest Navy on earth. My Navy isn't that big. I have a very strong economy. I ain't putting out as many ships as he is.

I need this war to go fast so I can reform my country to keep it from falling apart.

Tbfh, I have no clue what happened to Austria after the war, though I assumed it survived.

The only way I see Austria surviving is if the federalize given all ethnics equal rights and turn into and oiliarchy where officials from each state are voted on and then represent there people on the council. The council would be headed by one of the members from the states who was voted on by the council.

Is nobody even going to answer my previous questions or acknowledge my suggestions?

Then they will need to lower their navy to be realistic.
