Corporate Cosmos [OOC | Open]

[Ralnis]

Question, could my power also have the same Mechanics as Corporates?

That's not how it goes I believe. If anything, I could bring in corps and will have a minor corp underneath the Cossack nobility.

But add most of Siberia than just a city.

So, the whole of Serbia? If so, sure.

More or less.

[The Empire of Tau]

The G.R.U has no Corporates, it's all the state now.

The Cossacks will have a minor corp.

Is it state-owned?

[Ralnis]

The Cossacks will have a minor corp.

Is it state-owned?

Backed by Nobility and uses free-market ideas, since they are a special-economic zone.

You'll be watched heavily. Hiding anything from the G.R.U is going to be a very hard and a death wish.

Or I can crash the economy, causing you to take loans and have long lines for bread while I laugh in space. So your just going to have to deal with the Cossacks nobles of Siberia.

Tagging for interest, but probably won't have the time to join.

Fuck it, you can just keep Siberia. I'll add a note that I did not take you over yeet.

Look, I'm not saying I'll finance Ralnis in this war in order to get preferred access to his markets...but corporations gotta incorporate, you know?

Power Application
Name:House Rastinov
Territorial Holdings:Sakha, Krasnoyarsk,Yamalo-Nenets, Chukotka, Magadan
Leader Name:Igor Rastinov
Brief History: The Second Russian Revolution had become a wake-up call for the Cossacks, many traveled back in the plains of Siberia and settled there, not wanting to be part of the war. They grew in number during the war as they brought back their traditions and love for freedom as they marched on their own beat. They eventually structured themselves as a nobility, each signing an alliance as a coalition of noble houses that will defend each other. The war ended with the GRU winning but didn't wish to invade the coalition and an uneasy peace was maintained by the Russian Union and the Siberian Cossacks that took over the Siberian Plains. This split centralized the power of the nobility, allowing for House Rastinov to grow in power and become among the largest power with the largest reserves of minerals and metals in the world, and he plans on using it to escape the dying world to spread the Cossack traditions to a new world, untouched by Humanity and a frontier that they can call home.
Corporate Policies:
Tax Codes: There are flat taxes for corporations in Cossack lands but a sales tax of five capital for commercial goods
Patent Licences Sales: Any innovation that is developed in Cossack lands can be copied by the Cossacks by a price negotiable but no lower than 5 capital
Foreigner Regulations: No corporation may have no more that 2 mercenary battalions in Cossack Lands
Part-Time Warriors: Cossacks battalions maybe sold to corporations for 4 capital but must be used outside Cossack lands if processed more than 2, if have more than 2 in Cossack lands then they are barred from trading for a year until they comply, further disobedience will result of seizing corporate assets.
Industrialist Boons: The first Factory is only 1 capital, but there only be in the power. Grants will be given to those who promote industry in the Lands
Tribute to the Lands: For every 1 advance arms a corp makes, 1 must be given to the House
Sanctioned Warfare: No Hostile Takeovers are allowed, save for petition to the government for a sanctioned takeover.


Corporation Application
Name:Clan Istangr
Operating Base: Sakha
Leader Name:Udinav Istangr
Brief History: Created by many of the lesser Cossack nobles, Clan Istangr was built up from trading around both sides of the war but were shunned for their greed. Now the Clan is the one that is at the forefront of trying to bring spaceage colonization to the plainspeople, working on developing extremophile tradition and genetics for colonization of worlds that aren't particularly in the Goldilocks Zone. Because of this, they have been looking for support among the fellow noble houses in order to make their dream come true.
Corporation Expertise: Colonization, colonization of extreme climates to be more exact. They select people with hardy genetics to make sure Cossack culture spreads among the stars.

I like how you copied my policies Ralnis

So, your government is going to subsidize building Factories? Just clarifying that the cash actually does have to come from somewhere

This works for me, though to clarify, as a Power House Rastinov will have its own income and whatnot in relation to the GRU.

[Ralnis]

Tau gave up his claim to me as I threaten to crash his economy should he try to muscle me to far, so I am my own man. But if this is what you want as a balance then I can take it.

Ah, fair enough. Yes, I suppose you’ll be in Siberia and China, more or less.

More Siberia and get into China for relations and resources since Tau has encircled me and still wants to invade me. So we're at a cold war as for right now.

Hmm. So you’ll be starting with less regions?

No, I thought I would be having just those territories I named? I could be in both Siberia and China?

[Plzen]

Consider linking a map in the original post? Much easier to count territories that way.

Corporation Application
Name: Britannia Weapons Corporation (Major if accepted)
Operating Base: London
Leader Name: Josefa Rose
Brief History: The main corporation fueling most wars previously fought around the world, the Britannia Arms Corporation was privately set up by the Rose family during the period of warring. Of course, with how far destruction had come it could be said that their business was booming as they expanded beyond weapons and reached ordinance research. In the aftermath, the corporation was wealthy riding off the back of the war and lasted into the dystopian era. The Corporation was highly secretive of it's research, going as far as to kill it's own interns if they found out about it. Now, they're one of the last major corporations of the world, still banging the drums of war as weapons continue leaving the production line.
Corporation Expertise: Like it's namesake, the corporation mainly focuses on mass production of simple weapons for the military of nations.

Corporation Application
Name: Praetor Corporation
Operating Base: Undisclosed, as yet.
Leader Name: Director Cromwell is the majority shareholder by a significant margin.
Brief History: In the immediate aftermath of the collapse, all those decades ago, much of the world was in utter disarray, with the disenfranchised and former soldiers alike setting about looting, rioting and destroying all that they could. Cities were gripped by pandemic, the countrysides by famine, and it soon became almost impossible to profitably trade, through the sea of bandits, looters and desperate governments. It was at this point the young captain of a paramilitary force, Director Fairfax, emerged in the remnants of Europe, leading a drilled, disciplined mercenary company of some size, known initially as the Praetor Battalion. Director Fairfax and his company sold their services far and wide, but tended towards the reassertion of profitable trading order; guarding merchant caravans, crushing bandit groups and re-establishing order in cities. Equipped in the highest grade equipment available, the thick body armour and face-masks worn by the Lictors, the soldiers of the company, soon became immediately distinct, and by the time the first wave of disorder was calming, the Praetors were well known and well feared across the post-European states. Director Fairfax proceeded to hand control of half of the shares of the company to a deputy, Director Ireton, who set about transforming the mercenary body into a more profitably directed enterprise for times of peace. Ireton, in his vision, came upon the idea of utilizing the company for another purpose; protection. The merchants and states who had employed them had come to trust the Praetors, who had never broken a contract, and Ireton leveraged this into founding one of the most trusted banking organisations, first in Europe, and later across much of the western world. With the initial capital invested into the company coffers, they set about the business of banking, issuing loans, providing credit, and integrating themselves thoroughly into international trade. Director Ireton prospered immensely, a man of pragmatism at heart, but several years ago he passed away, leaving the now utterly reshaped company under the control of Director Cromwell, a man who has spent his entire life in the company, rising through the ranks of the Lictors and the Bank simultaneously, until buying out the majority of the shares and inheriting those of his father in law, Ireton. Director Cromwell, sicne his accession, has reinvested in the Company's soldiers, drilling and refitting them with modern equipment, and leasing some as bodyguards to the directors of smaller corporations, or as full companies to the less stable governments of the world. Cromwell, now that the possibility of space travel has once more become available, has latched onto the idea ideologically, and heads a significant faction of the corporation who see it as their moral duty to travel into the stars beyond, to ensure the rise of a new order for Humanity, in the stars.
Corporation Expertise: The Praetor Corporation prides itself on the discipline and training of their armed forces, which they are more than happy to rent out for mercenary service. Naturally, with such a force at their back, debts to the company seldom go unpaid, and no safer vault may be found than those of the company headquarters.

That's my application done with, I'd prefer a major corporation. I'd thought that was what I was applying for, since I'd asked if there were any major corporation slots open before applying.
