Icedonia!

We're England on the map. We've beautiful dreary british weather, a distaste for most furniture ( baring tables and modest beds - kind of Asian in inspiration ngl ), a penchant for polygamy, the most efficient and hard working bureaucracy in the world ( the Accantry ), the most professional army in world, the most ( per square mile ) developed territory in the Europe, a killer red on white color scheme ( just look at this flag ), and a... budding problem with racism ( but what great imperial power doesn't ). We're the lawful evil of this RP.

Did somebody say...EMPIRE? Sounds like all you need to do is get some more tea-wishes, then you can go have a lovely time sending a corporation to take over India, and finally you’re set to rule an entire nation with two dapper lads and bicycle!

I mean... me and Hibernia ( Ireland on the map ) have set up the West European Company ( WEC ) to colonize western Europe...

And, ever since my war with the Imperium - I have been looking for an edge in the medical field to boost my population's over all health. I could use someone with practical medical skills. You would have some considerable resources at your disposale - and totally awesome aesthetic to work with.

Imagine the ideological mindset of Imperial Japan, the ruthless pragmatism of the Soviet Union, all upheld by some vaguely Scottish/Welsh militarists.

Sounds like a blast to me. Although I’m just a teenager, being trans and nerdy means I’ve spent an inordinate amount of time online learning about medical bits and bobs, so I might be able to at least help the effort!

I’d also love to preserve ancient languages, but with a few twists of my preference

Sounds fantastic then! I'll start drawing up a more detailed map of Icedonia then - to provide regional layout, and give a feeling of what all is in the country. If you have any questions about dropping in, Icedonia, or just want some advice on the game in general, please feel free to ask!

As for language, the official language of state affairs and business is Andonian - conlang devised by Issac from most of central England's native dialects. Everyone speaks it as a second language however, usually holding preference to their own tribal tongue; you would have more than enough languages to record in that regard then.

I look forward to seeing your app!

Icedonian humanitarianism? What, is that the part where the victims get eaten to prevent unnecessary waste?

As much as I hate to admit it, your invasion did bring out the better in Issac ( for tactile reasons of course ). The fact that some clans on our isle actually wound up swearing the oaths at one point out of fear, means that he can't use fear as a method of expansion anymore. Over the timeskip, we'll be taking notes from our new Hibernian partners and taking a more, diplomatic, approach to things. I.e., the Army will have dropped their policy of exterminations over this last timeskip. In time, this too will naturally lead to the end of the Conquered Women system.

Don't misinterpret this recent tender streak to be a sign of softening though - we've just become ruthless in more subtle ways.

Oh please, we're not the Commonwealth. We don't pussy foot around our authoritarianism - there's nothing secret about our death squads.
