I know it only says "pick one tech tree" but, like, c'mon. Exactly how much would I get from the Romanian tech tree?

As much as it has, including prototypes. If you find unsatisfactory, you can choose another tech tree that is still free, but you can not have two.

Almost done with the app but i was wondering, do you think germany would be the Defacto head of the internationale or would it probably be more equal, i could see Marxist-Thalmannist germany probably wanting to exert more control over the various communist parties in the organization but it would also probably face push back from say the British, though Poland for example would probably be under the Thalmannist camp

I’d probably lean more towards the latter just because the diplomatic dance for control would be fairly entertaining I think

Definitely would be entertaining, and probably a pretty big chink in the Internationales armor

[Ovstylap]

I don't see why neutral Italy couldn't have been a perfectly good option? We ourselves do have some extremists on either side of the political spectrum, but are predominantly a Constitutional Monarchy. Obviously there is an element of anti-Socialism, or specifically anti-Marxist-Thalmannism- I don't think it would be a provocative choice though.

We were thinking about nations that bordered Germany, probably simply because Wilhelm in real life never moved away from the first country he moved in. It would be perfectly possible for him to leave through Danubia or Switzerland and to reach Italy afterwards, it could be a very nice idea.

I also however assumed that much like in real life, France would also want to see him extradited, so I proposed nations that would be able to resist pressure from both sides.

But yeah, Italy could work very well. Even more so since from what I remember Wilhelm had a passion for archaeology.

I'd imagine that Italy would not want to extradite Wilhelm to France considering the conflict that had happened in the country, and would in this case be sticking by a fellow monarch- overall its justification would be that Wilhelm was going into exile in a neutral country. Alt-history Wilhelm II becomes a patron of the Italian arts. A bunch of exiled German aristocrats etc being an entourage going around visiting sites of antiquity and funding excavations.

I wonder if we get an Australian player who takes over Britain’s Far East colonies

[The Imperial Warglorian Empire]

Hm, would anyone have been willing to guarantee Bulgaria's and Romania's union against Russia in the late 19th century?

[Kisinger]

Hey I'm still here just moving into a new place

[Tracian Empire]

Hm, would anyone have been willing to guarantee Bulgaria's and Romania's union against Russia in the late 19th century?

Tough to say, since I imagine that Russia, Austria-Hungary and the Roman Empire all would have had different interests, so it would depend slightly on the union's policies.

Austria-Hungary could have, since we're working on a history similar to real life where Austrian-Russian relations broke over a rivalry in the Balkans - but they'd need a reason to do it. Either the monarch of this union could be from a German house friendly to Austria or to Prussia, and/or fear from Russia could have pushed it, much like Romania in real life, to join Austria-Hungary and Germany in the Triple Alliance.

Nation Application

Full Nation Name: The East African Commonwealth

Short Nation Name: East Africa

National Symbols: The British Lion

Capital: Dodoma

Territory: Uganda, Tanzania and Kenya

Form of Government: Federal Parliamentary Constitutional Monarchy

Head of State: It is quite a complicated matter. East Africa officially recognizes George VI as the legitimate king, but since none diplomatic relations with the Canadian (or the British in exile) government exist, the prime minister is taken by many as the Head of State.

Head of Government: Sir Edward “Ian” Jacobs, prime minister of EAC and the field marshal of the EAC colonial forces.

Ideology: Hardline Anti-Communism, Conservatism, Federalism, Imperialism (British), Monarchism

Population: 13 106 442

Military Description: The overall Manpower available to the Commonwealth military, is quite big. Almost 300.000 men are able to be recruited. The overall Manpower of the military is 325.000 men. The army is split into four parts:
- The Commonwealth Armed Forces - consists of 200.000 men, from which 75.000 are currently active. The Armed Forces are in a state of alert due to the situation at the border, and are currently tasked with helping the Colonial Guard stabilize the border and repair/modernize equipment currently available to them. The infantrymen are primarily armed with the Lee Enfield Rifle (standard for both the armed forces and colonial guard) and the Enfield no. 2 revolver. The machine gun units (around 1000) are armed with the Vickers machine gun as their primary weapon and the Webley Mk VI Revolver as their secondary weapon.
- the Commonwealth Navy - consists of 75.000 men, from which 25.000 are currently active. These numbers include the on ground personnel, which provides intel, maintenance… they are currently tasked with patrolling the coasts and repairing/modernizing the equipment available to them. The navy’s pride is the stolen HMS Hood, with around 200 beach patrolling ships, 20 H-class submarines and two light cruisers - HMAS Adelaide and Nottingham serving in the navy as well.
- The Commonwealth AirForce - created from runaway RAF personnel, this part consists of 10.000 men, from which all are currently active. They are tasked with repairing and modernizing the current AirForce equipment of the Commonwealth.
- The Colonial Guard (militia volunteer force) - this just newly created part of the army (est. 1934) consists of 40.000 men. They are currently tasked with keeping the situation at the borders under control, with substantial help from the military. They are primarily armed with the Enfield no. 2 revolver and the Lee Enfield Rifle. On the other hand from the armed forces, they are also equipped with wooden batons.

Tech Tree: Canadian

Economic Description: The economy, despite its militarized state, is still diverse, but due to the poverty in parts of the Commonwealth, underdeveloped and uneven. The majority of the industry is taken by the agricultural sector, despite the government’s efforts to reduce its hegemony. The second place is taken by the consumer goods with the military equipment ( primarily the Lee Enfield rifle and the Vickers machine gun) being in the third place. The Layout of the economy is quite complicated. You have the industrialized heart of the commonwealth mainly around the coast and in the big cities (Dodoma) but there are the parts where poverty is in an all time high and agriculture is superior in the regions (Uganda, Borderlands…)

Goals:
- restore the British crown within Britain
- enforce the emancipation proclamation accordingly to its importance (VERY. HIGH.)
- end or lower the poverty in Uganda/the border
- reorganize the military
- end the border conflict

Point of Divergence: The Revolution of ‘27

History:
The Commonwealth. Last remaining state loyal to the Canadian and British crown in these dark times.

(1927-1928)Britain was in flames. The failed Baldwin administration collapsed and so did the moderate socialists. India, jewel of the crown, was taken over by the red menace. Sir Claud William Jacob was on a mission with his division in East Africa, just cracking down on some small socialist movements within Dodoma, when he heard screaming. He looked out of the window, as he saw Dodoma in flames. The revolution has just begun. He saw military police clashing with the angry mob, and he knew what he had to do. Quickly organizing his division, he secured Dodoma, recruiting fellow loyal forces present in the Tanganyika colony. He quickly marched through the Ugandan parts, as he got the news of Britain and the remaining colonies in flames of the revolution, aiming to secure East Africa before it’s too late. And he was successful. The next year, was a year of stabilization. The newly formed East African Commonwealth needed to lick its wounds.

(1929-1935)Through the years 1929-1931 the Commonwealth struggled. The socialist panafrican movements ravaged the western parts, whilst in the east, organized crime and corruption was in an all time high. The Military Junta within the state was barely holding out, after the First Marshal (leader) Claud Jacob died of cancer. After his death, the Commonwealth entered a state of chaos. And in 1932, from the ashes of the previous government, the Triumvirate emerged. Backed by the Eastern (and still functioning parts) of the commonwealth, the remains of the army and the remaining government officials, a trio of bureaucrats who wanted to get the EAC back into working order. And they did they job. Through various reforms and anti-corruption fight, they asserted total control over the state, the army, and the ( still very much authoritarian and militaristic) government. In 1934, the nation could finally liberalize. The Military Governance was declared “suspended” and first free elections could be held in 1935 (though still controversial. Along the coastline and in the major cities, almost everyone could vote. In Uganda, only the white persons were allowed to vote, even that was very restricted. It was uneven, and the EAC still needs a lot of time to restore to a full and functioning democracy.). The son of the “Founder,” Ian Jacob (a member of the triumvirate) was declared prime minister. He immediately got into work, passing the emancipation proclamation of the EAC to furthermore stabilize the country and lower the socialist influence. By actively promoting emancipation within the Indian communities, he stopped the spread of Indian Socialism to the country. He furthermore industrialized the country and unarmed the political scene. It seemed like a better future for the Commonwealth…

(1936-present) on January 29th, outpost Zeta on the Rhodesian-EAC borders, near the city of Tunduma, woke up into sounds of gunshots. The Rhodesians have been a thorn in the eye for us, but we didn’t think they would start a border conflict. And both sides didn’t knew that this conflict would go on for years. The EAC government with their newly elected prime minister - Edward Jacob, the heir to the office of his father who died of cancer the last month, responded quickly. By February 16th, the Colonial Guard was up and running with 6.000 men ready to fight the reds. By March, the guard had 10.000 members and in the end of the year ‘36, 20.000 men had amassed to defend the commonwealth. The “Border Wars” only grew on intensity as the Sudanese socialist fighters attacked our borders in ‘36. In January 1st ‘37, the “Colonials” had 34.000 men and when the army joined in with their 5000 volunteer corps, the situation grew stabilized. However, in April ‘37, a bomb attack happened in the city of Mbeya. From there on, masses and masses of men joined the Guard, reaching the number that is toasty - 40.000 men. From the bomb attack on, the border was stabilizing. So now, the situation look better for the East African Commonwealth, one of the few nations still loyal to the British crown and maybe, there’s a hope for a better future of the EAC.

Tech Tree: Canadian

Economic Description: The economy, despite its militarized state, is still diverse. The main parts of the industry are taken by car productions (Ford, Mercedes) which the EAC has made deal with. They are producing armored vehicles for the Commonwealth, by which they help the reorganization of the army. The second next large industry is the agricultural sector, which due to underdevelopment in some parts of the commonwealth and the modernization in the coast is having a boom. Third and fourth largest ones are the metal and furniture ones. The economy is currently having a boom, despite the (already mentioned) militarization. Many civilian factories are being used for army purpose.

- enforce the emancipation proclamation accordingly to its importance (VERY. HIGH.)

(1929-1933) The Commonwealth, despite the British empire being in flames, was having an economic boom. In the year 1931, the emancipation proclamation was passed, as well as series of reforms which allowed greater personal freedom in the still very much authoritarian state. In the year 1932, elections were held, as two major parties were founded - Liberal Party and the Conservative Party. Sure, poverty was high, and sure, almost everything around us wanted our country dead, but still, it was a great time for the EAC.

Either the monarch of this union could be from a German house friendly to Austria or to Prussia, and/or fear from Russia could have pushed it, much like Romania in real life, to join Austria-Hungary and Germany in the Triple Alliance.

Hm, that could work. Both candidates for the Union’s throne were German (one of which was Austrian German), so they could’ve created the Union and then sought ought Austria’s guarantee which would eventually lead to the Union joining The Central Powers.

But then pull an Italy due to conflicting territorial interests and join the Entente instead.
