I have to say this up front because I don't really think I can get into the rest of the application without doing so. Since we base our population figures on RL population data of claimed territories, what you're claiming would be, quite frankly, LOLHUGE for AMW. We have a natural aversion to superpowers in AMW do to previous issues with former members. Certainly we're not opposed to large nations, though. We take into account the fact that certain parts of China will have very large populations because of the way we do our population figures in AMW. But, again, a billion or more is too large for AMW, and, I'm afraid, that, unless you're willing to cut it down to at the very maximum of around 200-million-ish (give or take), that I couldn't, in good conscience, give my own approval to your application. I cannot, however, speak for other members.

There's a question of feasibility of your claim, which isn't, necessarily, a bad thing. The applications process is a bit of a back-and-forth between the community (that is us) and the potential member (that is you). The goal is to gain enough of an understanding about your particular claim and how it works before we agree. Our process, while a bit slow, usually means that everyone has had a chance to digest your claim and offer opinions, insights, and replies.
AMW does, however, pride itself on cooperation. AMW isn't just a group, it's a family. And, as you could probably guess, being that we're more of a family, we do, from time to time, have our spats. But, there is a deep respect between players in AMW that, in all honesty, your direct reply to me doesn't seem to promote. I can understand frustration. Believe you me that you're not the first person to offer a reply which could be construed as a tad rough around the edges. The other facet of the applications process for AMW is to not only gauge your idea for a nation, but you as a player and potential member. IMHO, when offered a criticism from me, your reply seemed to hint at a more pointed sarcasm that is generally frowned upon in our little group. My apologies if it was not intended to garner this type of feeling. One cannot always gauge tone of voice from black text on a white background.

While a small part of me asks whether this or that re. Alexander and Buddhism in Britain may be a little far fetched, in all honesty it doesn't feel that important these days. I think most of us will just be glad to have a larger, livelier community, and it seems likely that your proposed new nation would make a positive contribution towards that end.
And, as a bonus, it'll finally put an end to dithering on whether to find a way to work Britannia into Walmingtonian lore.
((Oh, but I wouldn't necessarily describe the Thames as particularly massive, from the perspective of continental Europeans, so on that basis I have to veto the application [/joke]))
