The Iron Curtain: A Cold War RP (OOC, Reboot, Open)

[Huguenotia]

Question, can we have a custom nation if it is also a minor nation?

[Puertollano]

Question, can we have a custom nation if it is also a minor nation?

As in, how custom?

[Huguenotia]

Question, can we have a custom nation if it is also a minor nation?

As in, how custom?

As in the entire island of Hispaniola was colonized by French Huguenots who eventually became an independent kingdom, custom

[Rhyssua]

What the hecc China... Mao wouldn't do any of that in a million years. Explain please

[Asardia]

As OP, I'm going to declare all posts from China void until we figure out exactly what's going on. This is completely out of character for Mao Zedong and China, especially considering how instrumental the west was in the collapse of the Qing dynasty. I mean, Japan hated the west and went militaristic to avoid a fate that China had, and now China is going to suddenly befriend them?

Yeah, this isn't happening. There's a difference between going ahistorical, and doing a complete 180 from everything leaders would normally do. Imagine if the US just said "West Germany you're on your own now", or if they let South Korea get invaded. And there's NO WAY Taiwan is being recognized by Mao. China STILL believes Taiwan is part of the People's Republic.

I mean, I think we make something work here, but I'm going to need a little breakdown on the history. I believe that going back hundreds of years is quite a change

[The Felan Federation]

WTF happened here?

[Hypron]

WTF happened here?

China not being China.

[The Felan Federation]

WTF happened here?

China not being China.

I heard.

Well. Shit.

Anyways.

Britain. The idea of the Indian Civil War is to split the country in three basically.

You'd have the Princes in the southern regions, commies in the far north-eastern regions and the nationalists in the north and western parts. In this situation, the nationalists are the ones whom pulled the trigger and are in a way - the same guys whom wanted to get rid of Britain. Only in this case, they don't want to remain kissy-friendly with Pakistan.

The Princes in the south want to regain their power and likely most welcome of American and British aid. The commies would be the weakest faction in the east (since from what I read, they weren't strong to begin with in India - due the secular western ideology clashing with the nation' identity or something).

Would you be up for supporting the Princely Federation? (I play to likely play the south)

The commies would be the weakest faction in the east (since from what I read, they weren't strong, to begin with within India - due to the secular western ideology clashing with the nation's identity or something).

Would you be up for supporting the Princely Federation? (I play to likely play the south)

Yeah, I'll back them up.

I sent you a telegram explaining it. Basically what Hypron said.

And I like this idea. I'll get up a map to see if I understood this correctly

Here is what I am thinking.

Ignore the Dominion of India name. It's the map that come closest to what I am thinking.

[Kamchakta]

Greater Seludong, PRCs IC have been rendered null and void for the inaccuracy of Mao Zedong ever doing something of that sort.

Alright. I used that HOI4 map as a reference:



In my next RP post, we'll have the Geneva Conference start (probably with the UK going as well). I think that can be an early catalyst for major divisions in the country. Also, since China has some control over Tibet, do you think both the USSR and Chinese can send aid directly to those communist areas?

[Arvenia]

I don't have so much time right now, so I might post on the IC next week, especially at the beginning of December. I'm also trying to figure out my next IC post. I'm very excited for my RP nation to be given an event from the OP.

Can you identify the colored areas on the map? It looks cool.

Pink = Commuist/Socialist areas

Green = Princely Federation (aka me)

Violet = Ultranationalists/Populists.

My apologies. Events have been rather shaky here so I've decided to leave them alone unless players asked for them. In this case, I'll provide some ideas. Before that though, I wanted to say that we're pretty active in the Discord, which is probably why the activity here in the OOC is quite low

1: Perhaps decolonization movements in Libya and Somalia? I realize they have representation in the Italian Senate, but historically, Libya gained independence in 1951
2: I think the development of the European Coal and Steel Community with France, West Germany, and the Low Countries is something to build up to
3: Rebuilding Italy from the war
4: Crackdowns on communists

Violet = Ultranationalists/Populists.

How long do you think it'll take for the civil war to be triggered? And can you tell us more about the ultra-nationalists political ideologies? Are they leaning towards a dictatorship, democracy etc

Well. They'd likely be of the fake democracy seen in the South Americas.

They would dislike Nehru for his buddy-buddy relationship with the Pakistani, since they see the Muslims as responsible for ripping apart India as it was. While all signs point to Nehru eager to hand over Kashmir to Pakistan. Since the situation is less politically hostile and a majority of the population there is Muslim.

I would imagine it would contain most of the hardcore nationalists and army elements, including more radical Indian National Congress members.

Rule Changes

Rule 4 is being expanded to include covert operations. This means that just like with invasions and military movements, intelligence operations in foreign countries must be explained here, and consent from the target player obtained.

Great. This plan sounds great to me. I've also provided a key for the map, and we can begin building up to the civil war

[Agarntrop]

Alright. Sorry to see you go. If anyone else has similar thoughts, please let me know.

And the date will now be April 1, 1950.

[United Elemental Nations]

Does the Vietminh still exist or not?

[Asardia]

Does the Vietminh still exist or not?

Yes. From what I've heard, our boi Ho Chi Minh is still alive and kicking. In fact, I believe the French are keeping a presence in Indochina as they withdraw to combat the communist insurgencies

[American Pere Housh]

What nations are still available?
