The Age of New Beginnings: Colonial RP (Shut down)

[Greater East Germany]

(Also, if anyone wants to, they can form the Iberian Empire or the Byzantine Empire. I'd like to see Byzantine North America.

Did someone say the Iberian Empire?

Uh.. Aren't you in my co-worker's RP?

If you mean Molvaniia, yes.

Would anyone mind if I had the former Byzantine province of Spania so I actually have something to jump off to America with?

I don’t need all of it. Just the stuff around Gibraltar and Seville.

I'll happily negotiate something. Maybe an alliance where you get to use my ports? (Of course, I'll need something back)

I could deal with that. I could possibly offer Greek ship designs or, if we’re desperate, Greek fire.

Denied.

1. We haven't started RP Colonization yet.
2. But why tho? Just be the Dutch Empire.

Why not the British Isles? I could create a history for that

You have enough territory already. If you're supposed to be a Swedish Empire, having the British Isles doesn't make sense.

[Chinzaniastan]

NS country name: Chinzaniastan
Roleplay tribe name: Abyssinia
Tribe Chief: Tarik Menelik (Yes, this name is inspired by the late 1800's Ethiopian leader.) Chief's power is partially limited by a monarchial council which handles all things agriculture.
Capital village: Addis Ababa, largest city is massawa (population 70,000)
Population: 2 million people in region, however only 1 million in tribe.
Location; Modern Ethiopia, Eritrea
Additional info: This is my first NS RP, so be patient with me. (Help is appreciated) Also, the tribe is based around bartering and very primitive shipping. Abyssinians have been as far as Persia.
The Military has a manpower of 10,000 and is divided into 2 divisions of 5,000. Primitive bows and spears are used mainly, with an occasional sword-like stick. The "Tactics" used are generally swarming.
Massawa is the only trading port to the empire and is located in Eritrea. The main export is cassava, which is generally shipped by primitive boat to Arabia. (Please, tell me if anything here is inaccurate)

[Vadterland]

Here's my app.

NS Country Name: Vadterland
Roleplay Country Name: Eastern Roman Empire (Ανατολική Ρωμαϊκή Αυτοκρατορία) | Byzantine Empire (Βυζαντινή αυτοκρατορία)
RP Country Flag:

Location: Greece, Macedonia, Bulgaria, Anatolia, Sicily, Malta, Balearic Islands.
Capital: Constantinople
Ruler: Basileios Alexios VII Komnenos
Population: 14,900,000
Colonial Company: Imperial Elysia Company (Αυτοκρατορικός Ηλύσια Εταιρεία)
Additional Info: In this universe, the Komnenian Restoration succeeds and the Byzantine Empire is able to reconquer the territories it had lost more than a hundred years earlier after the events of the Battle of Manzikert, and expand across the Mediterranean in a limited effort to reconquer former territories of the Roman Empire.

One question, though. If we're going to be starting colonization only at the start of the RP, wouldn't it make more sense to start in the 1500s? That was when colonization actually started in our timeline, and around the time when the Spanish conquered the Aztecs and Inca. Why do we have to start 200 years afterwards?

By the way guys, it's much appreciated if you can help me in any way! Constructive criticism is accepted in all forms, and I really want to get used to NS roleplaying.

I'll try and see if I can add some of my perspective to your app. It looks good so far, and it's promising to see that your grammar is up to snuff, but there are a few things I'd like to point out.

I'm not exactly sure how prevalent parliamentary/council government was in Africa, but whether or not it was in this time period, it's probably not going to be as effective as a king or some form of centralized leadership. Ethiopia was a kingdom, and it lasted uninterrupted from 1270 to the 1900s, well within the time period this is going to be in. Who knows, maybe you could make that work or have it evolve into a more modern kind of democratic system over time.

Something more glaring is the population, which is pretty off. By 1600, Ethiopia had around 2 million people under its wing, and if your territory is going to be spanning Ethiopia and Eritrea, then it definitely shouldn't be just 30,000. That should make you a fully fledged nation, not just a single tribe. Speaking of which, we should probably allow for actual African kingdoms rather than just tribes. You can't really do all that much as a single ethnic group under tribal leadership, and we have quite a few instances of African kingdoms, like Ethiopia, Songhai, and Ashanti in this time period.

[Chinzaniastan]

Thanks! I'm very bad at tribal African history, but I'll take that into consideration. (I just couldn't think of an African male name)

If you're having trouble coming up with names, there's plenty of name generators that you can use, like this one, and the rest of the site also offers pretty much every other kind of name under the sun.

Thanks!

[The Imperial Warglorian Empire]

NS Country name: The Imperial Warglorian Empire
Roleplay country name: Anglo-Swedish Empire
RP Country Flag: https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/the ... 0830142222
Location: This and British America (1700 Territory)
Capital: Stockholm, London (Dual Capitals)
Ruler: Charles XII (Sweden)/Charles IV (England/British Isles)
Population: 12,271,339
Colonial Company: Anglo-Swedish East India Company, Anglo-Swedish Americas Company, Anglo-Swedish West India Company
Additional Info:
-History: When Charles II and his Royalist Followers were exiled from England after losing the English Civil War, instead of finding refuge in Spain he found refuge in the Swedish Empire. There he would fall in love and marry one of the Swedish Princesses. During the civil unrest that followed Cromwell's death, Charles, with a fleet and army composed of both English Royalists and Swedish Forces, invaded the Isles. Together with the disgruntled populace, Charles and the Swedish and Royalist Forces overthrew the Parliamentarians. Towards the end of Charles II's life in 1685 on his deathbed, Charles II, (partly to thank the Swedish and partly to punish the English population for "betraying " him) after a short discussion with Charles XI of Sweden, would declare a joint-Empire with Sweden, and would also declare that Charles XI and his heir would become the next Kings of England, as he himself had no heir. After Charles II died, Charles XI of Sweden declared the unity of the Swedish Empire and the Kingdom of England, creating the Anglo-Swedish Empire, with the Swedish King declaring himself Charles III of England.

This new alliance would bring many benefits, with the new powerful military of the Swedish Army at their fingertips, Scotland was further pressured and so joined the Kingdom of England (and so the Anglo-Swedish Empire) in 1689, England forming the United Kingdom under the Empire. In 1692, with the power of the powerful British Navy, the Swedish would invade and take over the Kingdom of Denmark-Norway and all her possessions. Russia and Poland-Lithuania would both declare war on the new Empire in defence of Denmark-Norway, leading to what would be called the Third Northern War, or Great Northern War. However, with the use of naval domination, Poland-Lithuania would quickly be knocked out (with the Empire organising a separate peace, taking some land) and then bringing it's full might on Russia. With the increased manpower from Great Britain, more quality troops could be fielded and eventually, after beating Russia in several major battles, the war would end in 1696 with Russia ceding the Empire some land.

Now a large empire, the Anglo-Swedish Empire now under the ambitious and intelligent Charles XII would look for further conquests.

-Army: The Anglo-Swedish Army, technically a united force, is also technically two armies: The British Army and the Swedish Carolean Army. The two differentiate their loyalties via their uniforms, which are of different colour patterns from each other, as well as different uniform styles. The Anglo-Swedish Army follows a strict and challenging training regime, following a quality over quantity ethos, relying on elite well-trained and drilled shock troops to go on quick offensives and breakthrough enemy ranks with well-drilled musket fire and bayonet charges to achieve victory over numerically superior forces. The Army also prefers a more meritocratic approach to officers and soldiers rather than via ways of a simple purchase of rank.

-Uniforms: British Uniform (replace white with yellow and yellow with blue), Swedish Uniform (replace yellow with red)

Tag. Franco-Polish to counterbalance the Anglo-Scandinavian rising power? Both of us being Catholic, and rivals of said nations.

[Benuty]

So seeing that the Parliamentarians have fallen...it would be interesting to play as a colonial company or at the very least parliamentarians in exile who are looking to the new world to build a model society, and country.
