Okay, you're good. But remember, I'm only the Co-Op, and I'm not in charge of most of Africa. The UK and France is, so watch out.

If they want to start a second war, alright.

Well Rashid did call them apostates...so just wait for the next IC post to see the reaction.

Also I object to any territory grabbing at the moment. And for Imperial America, you basically get the CSA minus Louisiana and Florida.

Apostates was in a battle speech at the Mecca trenches, how'd they hear that anywhere else?

It's possible there might have been a mole...or the fact that the trenches around Mecca are pretty big, and one's voice couldn't reach everyone so microphones or voice amplifiers where used and some scouts happened to record the speech from the cover of a rock.

One question. Why is French terrotory so appetizing to take? It seems like everyone wants a bite of France. Eat the escargot not the land!

And get ready to be suprised what the Muslim population in France has done (Hint: It’s not a rebelion).

It's not that it's too big, but rather the population is unrealistic and the GDP is literally that of the entire world today.

Well yes. It's hard to argue with that except for the fact that it is controlled by one of the global superpowers of the time that can easily fight a two front war.

In addition, is it puppet-o'clock?

Okay, there were a lot of things I need you to change. First, I am going to spare your nation all together because there already was a Republic of India, bu since he hasn't showed up in the RP, you can have India, as well as Paki, Bang, Burma, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam. However, Hong Kong is British and Taiwan is already a nation. And can you please explain the History of your nation? It help your nation a lot. For now, declined. THanks for your consideration.

Actually, you can't have South-East Asia, meaning you are left with India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Burma, due to the size of the nation. and you also have to change the GDP. Thanks again, and sorry.

The World Capitalist Confederation wrote:Country Name: The Democratic Republic of Africa
Fictional or Real: Fictional
Head of State: Nzimba Mbimwe
Government Type: Oligarchic Authoritarian Democracy
Capital: Leopoldville
GDP: $130 billion
Population: 130 million
Location: Democratic Republic of the Congo, Republic of the Congo, Gabon, Equatorial Guinea, Central African Republic, Cameroon, Nigeria, Benin, Angola, Namibia, Zimbabwe, Zambia, Botswana
History: In 1945, the world was very much weary from the Second Great War, as insurrections had begun across the African continent, led by a local warlord named Nzimba Mbimwe, who had been preparing for several years as the war waged across all of Europe. His insurrectionists had one demand: African independence. Brought to the table by the United States, who had seen the success of his revolts, a settlement was negotiated: they would get a small chunk of Africa, and not join the Soviet bloc for the next 20 years. Mbimwe, seeing that his troops were getting tired and that they had much worse equipment than the West, agreed.

The new fledgling nation has a lot ahead of it, along with having boundless raw materials and some temporary stability from the war. However, it faces a lot ahead of it: rampant corruption, warlord control, military interference in politics and cultural conflict. What next for the young nation? Will Mbimwe make himself a great authoritarian like Stalin or Ataturk, or will he end up squandering his luck and end up a second Idi Amin? It all depends on Mbimwe's personal competence...
Faction: Non-Aligned, not even with the non-aligned alliance...for now.

I somehow doubt that a large African nation, even one this big, would have a GDP larger than a united Scandinavia. Idk, just a feeling.

You using modern numbers?

Not only are the numbers way off (at this point the territories you've listed are still pretty underdeveloped, so it's unlikely the GDP will be even remotely close to that number) but it also doesn't really make any sense. How did you somehow conquer all of that in the three or so year time gap, when India gained independence, that'd be available? Why would South East Asians accept Indian rule? How did you have the resources in the first place to conquer it all? Etc

Thing is, countries of the modern-day are SIGNIFICANTLY more developed economically then nations of the past. At this time those African countries were still pretty darn underdeveloped. And seeing as you've only had about 5 years to rebuild, it doesn't seem too likely the GDP would be that high.

Not to mention you're grabbing numbers with a 70-year time difference. Y'know what happened in 70 years? The US turned from an agricultural-protectionist trade nation with little influence on the global stage to one of the biggest industrial powers in the world. Germany turned from a defeated, war-torn, split country with pretty much no independence into the leading economic powerhouse of Europe. The Soviet Union was one of two superpowers, yet only 40 years later it'd collapse.

GDP and development of economies can change significantly overtime like that.

his nation is big yes, but if you look at his gdp and population the country is very poor so i'll allow it (he can only have 1.3 million standing army at the most anyway so it's not like he's overpowered)

I said adjusted for inflation, calm down.

For comparison, it's about 1/10th the GDP per capita of the United States at the time, so hold your horses.

It's about the same GDP per capita as Kenya or Ghana at the time, so try not to have a stroke, eh?

The World Capitalist Confederation wrote:Country Name: The Democratic Republic of Africa
Fictional or Real: Fictional
Head of State: Nzimba Mbimwe
Government Type: Oligarchic Authoritarian Democracy
Capital: Leopoldville
GDP: $130 billion
Population: 130 million
Location: Democratic Republic of the Congo, Republic of the Congo, Gabon, Equatorial Guinea, Central African Republic, Cameroon, Nigeria, Benin, Angola, Namibia, Zimbabwe, Zambia, Botswana
History: In 1945, the world was very much weary from the Second Great War, as insurrections had begun across the African continent, led by a local warlord named Nzimba Mbimwe, who had been preparing for several years as the war waged across all of Europe. His insurrectionists had one demand: African independence. Brought to the table by the United States, who had seen the success of his revolts, a settlement was negotiated: they would get a small chunk of Africa, and not join the Soviet bloc for the next 20 years. Mbimwe, seeing that his troops were getting tired and that they had much worse equipment than the West, agreed.

The new fledgling nation has a lot ahead of it, along with having boundless raw materials and some temporary stability from the war. However, it faces a lot ahead of it: rampant corruption, warlord control, military interference in politics and cultural conflict. What next for the young nation? Will Mbimwe make himself a great authoritarian like Stalin or Ataturk, or will he end up squandering his luck and end up a second Idi Amin? It all depends on Mbimwe's personal competence...
Faction: Non-Aligned, not even with the non-aligned alliance...for now.


The one issue with this nation is that you're claiming French and British land. I don't know about the UK player, but as the French player, I've got to say no to the seizure of my territory.

All I'm taking is Benin, Cameroon, Gabon, the Central African Republic and Equatorial Guinea.

They're not worth much, anyway. How about a compromise?

You can take Benin and the Central African Republic back if you want.
