You see, you misspelled Canton in your demands post. So, I decided to play dumb and not draw Canton in (I'm lazy). I was hoping you wouldn't notice.

Nation's Leader(s):Kaiser Amalrich von Hohenzollern

National Government Type: Absolute monarchy

National history: In the aftermath of the German kaisers compromise with the republicans the various noble families of the Kaiserriech were in uproar however they now very quickly realised that their opinion no longer mattered and that vast parts of their estates were being taken away from them. Despite the constant lobbying by these families to return to the old order no change occurred so in order to preserve the true German way the kaisers brother Amalrich von Hohenzollern who had always been opposed to republicanism declared that the homeland had been lost to the insidious revolutionaries and additionally that all who were loyal to Germany would follow him into the dark continent (Africa). Many people within Germany laughed at him and named him as a fool or as a maniac however what they didn't realise was that he was a maniac with money and support which lead to the establishment of a new German state in Nigeria in the year 1805 and despite the immense difficulty in setting up the state and the immense racial tensions between the German and native populations the small industrial state has managed to survive.

Good lord, I'm so busy. Sorry for taking so long to post but I promise I'll do one on the weekend

I like how there is all this color in Europe then there is this empty spot for Switzerland. Which makes me wonder if one could just annex it

I do not think you can just annex Switzerland, there is the Swiss there and no one will be able to remove them. The Swiss are in the mountains my friend.

I’d assume not, it’s Switzerland. One does not fuck with Switzerland.

Also, Nuverikstan, I’m expecting an Event on Friday.

You know what, I actually really like this. There are a couple of confusions I am having, but I am going to make this work. First, 750,000 Germans seems like a lot of Germans to follow you to Africa, but I am considering accepting it. Second, I do not understand what this Afro-German merger culture is. Is it a new German culture effected by its environment, or a mixture of native African and German culture? If it is the first, that's fine. If it is the second, that would not make much sense. I am pretty certain your nation would be racially divided for hundreds of years to come, so it does not seem feasible for your two populations to share much in relation to culture or lifestyle. Also, your Nigerian population seems a bit high. Not saying there are not that many Nigerians there, I just don't believe that many natives would assimilate into your nation. Third, switch your 3rd, 4th and 5th rates, to 5th, 6th and unrated.

I have edited the app and the Afro-German merger culture is more like the former, I tried to base it of the Afrikaners who emerged in Africa.
