East Asia is especially open.

True freedom can only be where there is no exploitation and oppression of one person by another; where there is not unemployment, and where a person is not living in fear of losing his job, his home and his bread. Only in such a society personal and any other freedom can exist for real and not on paper.” -J. V. STALIN

I like the idea of this RP and I already read a the first and the last IC page.
I already saw that it is a little bit unrealistic in contrast to the 25 years of IC. Im locking at you european empires.
If I got everything right it plays in 2975 BC and everyone understands all languages.
Well I might make a App and hope that it wil get accepted.

I like how one of their biggest hits on Aksumite Christianity is that we believe our God died on a cross, when we don’t. That might work for Trinetarians, but it doesn’t work for Aksumites. But beyond that, the son of God was allowed to be killed, and the purpose for going to the Earth was in the end, to die for man’s sins. Tbh there’s lots to be said.

Beyond that, the Cross has no real role in Aksumite Christianity. It’s viewed as simply the tool used to kill the Christ, not as an object worthy of worship. Using it as such would be considered Idolatry. It would not take long to point these things out. In fact I’m pretty sure people who talked to the Aksumites know this. It’s worthy of another post I suppose.

My app is finished. I'm just not sure about the landing position. Would it be better to be near others or not?

If you want to start your own civilization I’d say you want a decent distance. East Asia has only one active player, me, and is mostly open. India, for example, has only one person in it and they are closer to Pakistan.

Southern China is very open right now and you’ll be able to make contact with me relatively quickly after establishing your own civilization. I also have no capability or reason to go down and kill you yet, as right now I don’t even control all of China’s north plain.

China sounds interesting,but if there is one place I know nothing about then its ancient China. Honestly I would have to search for everything like: how did their society work, what ressources did they have, how developed there they, what citys did already exist, how looks China like and where would I even start.
On the other hand its something different then Europe.

If you're looking for player interaction, the red sea and northern Europe are the current hotspots.

Beyond that, the only other active areas right now are europe, eastAsia, and california ( sort of ),

Later in the secondary school he soon found himself isolated and only really being able to make conversations with the smart ones. Later he grew found of physics and learned a little bit about it. Because most pupil on a secondary school dont go to high school, they had to take part at a practical course. In the fist two years at the secondary school he had to paticipate in a metal work course. There he learned a little bit of how to work with metals. In the 9. and 10. grade he had to take internships. The first one at a survey company and the second one by a Stonemason.

In school he had to work in the labratory and would learn how to work with the materials. Some times he would be given a task and should make the experiment all on his own.

Theme Song?: I will find one as soon as I need one. Right now there is no need for a Theme Song.
What do you wanna see in this RP? What would make it better?: I want to see the journees of the characters and the rise of their nations.

I just dont like the huge empire what already exist in stupid locations.

@Empire of Techkotal Please no more Europe players. We need people near the Fertile Crescent.

I really don't understand why authors are landing in their respective homelands. It really is starting to bug me. Everyone needs to spread out. The Filipino guy is in Naxos, the Kazakh is in Egypt, or near it, there was a Korean in Sardinia but I don't know what happened to her, multiple Americans all over the place, with an African American in Ethiopia, an American in Sumeria, an American in China, etc. There is already enough happening in Europe, and I think people should land in the Levant or something. Hell, you could of landed in the Indus Valley Civilization. Europe needs to stop gaining attention.

But no, you chose instead to land in Southwestern Germany... An uncivilized place which had 0 progression in civilization until way, way, way, way later.

We fit into the country of Cascadia. The classic move from California to Washington States with some still back in Berkeley California. California since the forest fires has not been the same. I think I might fit in pretty well in those geographical boundaries. I had enough and moved to New York.

I wonder why someone has not come up with a fictional country or short lived country that disappeared.

and I'm not going to the mediterranean
Simply because every time I have something to do with nations I'm at the fucking mediterranean.
It just gets boring after a couple of times. If I'm not going to europe then I'm going to south China.
It might not be so "civilised" but there were less forest and more fertile land and their there some bronze age civilisations in the north.
