The only reason I'd want to find people would be tech sharing.

Big mad if I can't make the Ainu Tributary Wo State.

Well they ARE easterners if I'm reading G's cheekiness correctly.

That is the twist. So I will keep to my original idea based on the local geography of the three mainland nations and my island. But then how it was worded was with Ainu that are my neighbors so I don't.

Bish what???

Apparently the sun rises in the WEST in this world, and journeys EAST, so the order is WEST to EAST top down.

'tis a cosmological risk when a planet gets wanged by an extinction-level event meteor.

I don't think that's how that works, but sure

Actually, it is. It's a fascinating study.

Granted, an impact large enough to actually spin the Earth in the opposite direction probably would have caused a significant portion of the planet to turn into molten rock from the heat of the impact dissipating, and boiled a large portion of our seas. Lucky, in this circumstance, we have !magic! to blame.

That's what I meant - sure it's POSSIBLE, but the force necessary and the outcome we have are rather unaligned

I hope G is joking.

What do you mean? He's not joking afaik. We already know magic is a thing.

Well I referred to the east has the land of the rising sun so that's weird.

How about you call us SUNRISE LAND (Nihon)

No Wo works .

Nihon is a prettier name

Yep it sure is.

So if the theory is true, me and the Ainu are neighbors. So no vassalization for Novas.

Just waitin' on three, and then we see if my people starve sweats nervously

I'm just trying not to be excessive with the baby-making seeing how that's backfired for a few people

'tis a tough calculation. Without children, your tribe can't expand or survive in the long term. However, you risk death in childbirth, and children are not free to feed - not at all.

Hmm, but failing to have kids is going to bite you too. Sure, you have to provide for them for 6-8 years, but I feel like extra workers are going to compound on themselves very quickly.

I think that focusing on food production and extra pops is really gonna pay off in the long run, assuming my entire tribe doesn't die of starvation.

Yeah, you and me both. I have three darn babies to deal with, all of a sudden. Time to figure out how to grow crops!

Righto chumps and chumpettes. I'm firing up the wood-burning update machine, so you probably have no more than a quarter of an hour or so to get those posts in.

Not gonna lie, I am open to vassalization or limited protectorate status in some fashion.

Well, I did make it quite clear that the sea is both east and south of you. You're essentially sending Neolithic explorers to try and gain value from walking along a coastline and peering out into the depths for something of value. Most of those resources won't be exploitable for some time ineed.
