A Cold Era (OOC/Closed)

[Corporate Councils]

This thread is the re-recruitment thread for the ongoing alternate history Era series which has so far spanned from 1914-1941. We have recently finished up a second great war, or a Second World War if you will, and the wave of decolonization and player departures has opened up a few new spots for interested players. Because of the organic and ongoing nature of our game, there will be a few restrictions on territories and histories, since most territories in the game have been occupied or controlled by players at some point already.

At the moment we are entering a Cold War-type era (hence the name) in which the world is divided into a communist bloc, which is opposed by a capitalist/corporatist/anti-communist bloc. In addition, there is an unaligned bloc, which leans towards the anti-communist bloc, but maintains a great deal more independence in its actions and relationships.

For an application here is what we want:

Country name-
Type of government-
Population (Your NS one reduced by 1 decimal point)-
Capitalist, Communist, Unaligned-
Military Strength-
Military Weakness-
A link to a good representation of your RP skills (preferably from another NS game)-
Land-

I'll use my own app as an example.

Country name- the Confederacy of Corporate Councils
Type of government- Plutocratic corporate totalitarian oligarchy
Population (Your NS one reduced by 1 decimal point)- 330 million
Capitalist, Communist, Unaligned- Capitalist
Military Strength- Unparalleled navy (as of the current RP)
Military Weakness- Weak land army outside of some special forces
A link to a good representation of your RP skills (preferably from another NS game)- http://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=174553&start=1000
Land- Southeast Asia, Indonesia, Australia, New Zealand, South Pacific Islands (protectorates)

Furthermore, because of the importance that economic and industrial power plays in the world, we will be using the Absolution NSTracker page. Though it's not perfect and the military numbers can be fudged a bit, it's really been one of the best ways to determine relative standings between nations. For example, if a player devotes 60% of his government budget on the military and has 40% of the population in the army, there is a good chance that his economy couldn't support it and that his soldiers will be armed with sharp sticks and rocks.

Game rules will be posted once a new IC is established, but they're pretty standard for any war RP on NS: no-godmodding, use proper grammar, keep OOC and IC separate, etc... The only rule that might differ from other Cold War RPs is that nuclear weapons will be restricted to only the leaders of the three blocs and anybody unwise enough to be a rogue state. This keeps the unnecessary apocalypses under control and allows the leaders of each bloc to exercise some real influence.

The blocs so far:
Capitalists: The Confederacy of Corporate Councils (CCC)(leader), the United Republic of Treko, the Democratic States of Knockercord (DSK), the Kingdom of Bordurian, Shnercropolis, Company Paradis, Barlatia?, The Murray Dynasty, .

Communists: The Supreme Socialist State of the Union of Confederate Socialist Republics (UCSR)(leader), the Socialist Republic of Sjovenia, the People's Republic of Kingston/South Kings (SK), and The Glenn Nation.

Unaligned: The Empire of Zumreed (leader), Soviet Socialist Republics (SSR), the New American Union (NAU), the IRA Strugglehold of Chancetapher, People of the Illuminati, Wiendonia, Northern Anvils, Skakova, the Vaktovian Empire, New Sapienta, .

Alliance Unclear: Daragal,

Current open lands:
North America: N/A

South America: Basically everything since our Brazil player dropped, but at the moment they're divided up into a few different states, or are about to be.
Argentina, Chile, Paraguay, and Uruguay have all been part of the Kingdom of Bordurian since 1644, but recently have been "liberated" by the CCC and established as the Republic of Patagonia, a capitalist republic dominated by ethnic and cultural Poles.
Peru, Bolivia, and Ecuador were more recent additions to Bordurian and as such aren't dominated by Polish language or culture, but like their southern neighbors have been reorganized into the Andean Republic, another capitalist state.
Brazil is the former Imperial Republic of Atelia, a failed military state which collapsed during WWII.Colombia is currently occupied by the CCC and South Kings as part of an ongoing anti-insurgency campaign against a rogue Kingsington admiral, but the situation has decayed into a hellish quagmire as the Colombian population has risen up in rebellion.
Venezuela was formerly a colony of the SSR until an invasion of the now-defunct Murray Dynasty drove them out. Since then, the Dynasty has collapsed leaving it in a state of anarchy.
Guyana, Suriname, and Guiana have been set up as Marxist puppet states by the UCSR.
Africa (Afrika): Currently N/A except for Madagascar and Tanzania, former colonies of the CCC which were industrialized and transformed into corporatist vassal states.
The former colonies of the Murray Dynasty in the southern part of the continent are protectorates of the Empire of Zumreed (this means that they're open to new players, but expect Zumreed to boss you around, so beware of this choice).

Europe:
Sweden and Norway have mostly avoided the wars that have devastated the rest of the continent and have yet to be given any sort of historic background by any players.
Germany, France, Denmark, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg were all once part of the Murray Dynasty, a former great power of Europe that collapsed when its hereditary president suddenly died. Though some other parts of the Dynasty have broken away or been assimilated by other states, this core territory is now open and is currently the United States of Europe.
Britain is newly independent from the Murray Dynasty and its elderly queen has been reinstated; however, she has no heir.

The Middle East (the Middle West):
With the defeat of the Military Alliance of Germanic and Slavic States (MAGSS) in the most recent war, Turkey, which was jointly occupied is now an independent state.
Furthermore, the DSK has withdrawn from the Caucasus, Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, and Kuwait leaving any number or combination of them open to new regimes.
The Sultanate of Oman with backing and weapons from its patron, the CCC, has in recent years become a secular dictatorship which has been recently conquered Yemen and is expanding into the rest of the Arabian peninsula.

Asia:
The Central Asian Republic: A CCC-Trekish-Kingsington vassal petro-state established with the leftover areas in Central Asia to function as a unified region for hydrocarbon production, and as a buffer state between South Kings and Treko.

The Pacific Ocean:
Though the majority of Micronesia, Polynesia, and Melanesia have recently been claimed as protectorates by the CCC.
Australia and New Zealand have both been released from the CCC as newly independent, corporatist states. Before they were controlled by the CCC, they were part of the United Provinces of New Korongo which was absorbed by the CCC and Kingsington/South Kings.
The Philippines, and New Guinea are also open as breakaway provinces of Kingsington

I know that these holdings seem rather limited, but they're all that's been opened up by the current players. If there are any specific requests on land, mention in your app and I'll see what I can do to free it up, but I won't promise anything to anybody. I also am aware that some of these histories seem a tad convoluted, but again, ask here and I'll do what I can to clarify any confusion.

[Corporate Councils]

A very brief summary of our metaverse's Second World War.

After the devastating war in Europe, the former alliance system was recalculated to follow a more regional structure. In Europe, the states of Katyuscha, Treko, Sjovenia, Bordurian, and the Murray Dynasty all joined together as the Military Alliance of Germanic and Slavic States (MAGSS) based around the racial superiority of the Germanic and Slavic nations. As an alliance they invaded Turkey and the Balkans unopposed while committing humans rights abuses. Since most of other states in the world were dominated by authoritarian regimes, these invasions went unopposed.

To further complicate matters, a rebel faction of the Murray Dynasty had taken control of its Afrikan holdings several years earlier and gone to war with the Empire of Zumreed over the control of the Congo. After the CCC and UCSR had gotten involved in the conflict that was spreading across Afrika, the rogue general received unexpected support from the legitimate leader of the Murray Dynasty who joined the war against the other three states. These states, members of the more broad Earth Union, which encompassed most of the other states in the world, managed to fight the united Dynasty forces to a standstill and were starting to push back when the rest of MAGSS launched an invasion against Zumreed attacking from the sea and through the Sinai Peninsula. At the same time, partisans of the Soviet Socialist Republic, upset with Zumreed for occupying portions of their homeland, rose up as co-belligerents with MAGSS, while the legitimate Soviet government, living in exile in Hawai'i, joined the MAGSS effort by attacking Atelia in South America and conquered Venezuela in the process.

Though things looked bleak for Zumreed and its EU allies, a secret meeting on the Consular island fortress of Zanzibar between the leaders of Zumreed, the CCC, and the Murray Dynasty led to a peace deal with the Dynasty and their defection from MAGSS. As an ally of the EU, the Dynasty withdrew their troops from the Congo and Madagascar and launched a surprise attack against Bordurian, their WWI enemy, capturing the rest of its Polish and Baltic territory.
This defection also allowed Zumreed and the CCC to focus their main forces against MAGSS in the north in the two battlegrounds of Alexandria and Evansgrad (a city that overlooked the entrance to the Sinai Canal). Though Alexandria and the Nile Delta was captured by Treko and its allies, Evansgrad managed to remain standing, a factor that would end up deciding the fate of the war in the Mediterranean front.

Worried over the loss of Alexandria and the threat that the MAGSS army posed to his new capital of Cairo, the Emperor of Zumreed authorized the use of a captured Soviet weapon, Sarin gas, on occupied Alexandria, killing most of the unprepared MAGSS soldiers and any remaining civilians. Because of the debacle in Alexandria, a coup overthrew the Kaiser of Treko and installed a new, more democratic regime which withdrew from the war.

With the strongest members of their alliance having betrayed or withdrawn from MAGSS, the alliance began to crumble and the EU was able to launch a counter-attack. They seized the rest of the Middle West that MAGSS controlled, while the CCC's unrestricted access to the Mediterranean, thanks to the victory at Evansgrad, allowed them to raid and bombard at will the coastlines of Southern Europe and to seize Crete as a staging point for a full scale invasion of Sjovenia. Thanks to a coordinated attack on Italy by the Murray Dynasty, the UCSR, and naval pressure by the CCC, Sjovenia also withdrew from the war, leaving only Bordurian as the final member of MAGSS. They too would eventually capitulate.

While all of this was going on, the main strength of the CCC, its immense navy, was being used not in Europe or the Mediterranean, but in an all-out attack on all MAGSS holdings in the Pacific. Simultaneously attacking the Marianas, Hawai'i, and South America, they were able to take the smaller islands after a series of naval battles and blockades, but South America proved to be more difficult. The Bordurians were better soldiers and far more patriotic than their Consular counterparts, but given the superior economic backing of the CCC and its use of Sarin gas on the city of Valparaiso, they managed to convince the Bords to surrender as well, mostly ending the war in South America.

However, because the Murray Dynasty had become too agressive and expansionistic, there were factions within the EU that wished to see them laid low. As part of their peace with the Bordurian forces in South America, the CCC transported the entire remaining army to Europe and rearmed them, while coordinating an uprising in Poland and the Baltics to coincide with their invasion/liberation. On Easter of 1941, all of Bordurian rose up, somehow armed with military grade weapons, while its American armies invaded through Finland and drove out the occupying forces. Due to the shock of the "Bordurian Spring" the young leader of the Dynasty suffered a massive heart attack, prompted on by his acromegality and stress, leading to the collapse of the European power as numerous internal factions squabbled over control, while a communist uprising in Spain led to almost 1/3 of the country coming under the influence of the UCSR.

[Zumreed]

The Major factions of the Story

Superpowers:

The Confederacy of Corporate Councils: An East Asian country that is a confederation of large corporations, and the leader of the Capitalist nations. One of the most industrialised nations and known for it's dominance of the seas, the CCC has a hand in every Free market economy in the world. The CCC

The Empire of Zumreed: An Afrikan country, one of the oldest countries in the world, with the longest lasting Imperial dynasty since 180 BC. It seeks to unite Afrika under the Imperial flag. Zumreed boasts one of the largest and most motivated militaries. The Empire remains neutral in the conflict between the Capitalists and Communists because it holds ties with both sides, in the form of trade. Also known for it's massive industrial capabilities and natural resources. It controls a large amount of the world's oil.



Major nations:
The United Republic of Treko: A former Monarchy and the aggresor in both WW1 and WW2, the Trekkish republic boasts natural resources and a strong military power in the Balkans. The Trekkish are known for their rascism and xenophobia towards outsiders. The Trekkish Republic was made to sign a treaty with the Capitalist CCC.

Trekkish Ultra-nationalists are trying to create chaos near the Bordurian border. The Trekkish have deployed forces to Syria to restore order

The New American Union: A massive, Isolationist power that was formed from the Union of the US and Canada and the annexation of Mexico. The NAU is responsible for the invention of long range rockets and warheads. Ironically, the country is a Dictatorship and all the famous former American monuments were destroyed.

High risk of revolution, annexed Panama and controls Panama canal

The Soviet Socialist Republic: One of the most complicated Nations of the world, the SSR alternates between being an military dictatorship and a Monarchy. It is composed of Ethnic Russians, who migrated into Arabia. The world turned on the SSE and a worldwide witch hunt of the SSE was lead by the Murray Dynasty which commited genocide on Soviet civilians. Now the SSE is extremly weakened and restricted to Syria with many restrictions placed on it's military.It is currently in a state of civil war and anarchy. The Imperial Army of Zumreed is currently occupying parts of the country and is trying to restore order.

The Socialist Republic of Sjovenia: A former MAGGS nation, it was the second aggresor in WW2. It is known for it's innovation in Nuclear Power and insane experiments in Antactica. The country is closely allied with the Kingstons and is known for it's Socialist policies. It fell apart in 1968 due to an economic collapse, and anarchist elements.

The Democratic States of Knockercord: The Great Indian state that stretches from the Middle West all the way to the subcontinent. The country is known for it's democratic principles and ovverall friendliness. It favors the Capitalist nations although it doesn't have good feelings for the oppressive CCC. It fell apart in 1968 due to Nationalist uprisings through out the country.

The Murray Dynasty (Might as well) : A formerly large militaristic state known for it's hand in world affairs. It was the trigger that destroyed the SSR, and also was responsible for the events leading up to the 2nd World War. It had a reputation for stabbing it's allies in the back, attacking it's MAGSS allies in support of the EU, which prompted the CCC to support a re-armed Bordurian uprising to cripple the power of the Dynasty in the occupied areas. The Dynasty President promptly died of a heartattack. The Zumreedians have no love for the Dynastic states, since a rouge Dynasty General caused Zumreed to fight a 7 year war in the Congo in an attempt to liberate it and destroy the Dynasty armies

The People's Republic of the Kingstons: An Asian country that has seen a lot of political strife. It has shifted from Republic to a Communist state and boasts a behemoth military. It fell apart in 1968 due to an economic collapse and separatist revolts.
Will add the others later

The Armed Republic of Great Britain: The Armed Republic arose from the ashes of the Murray Dynasty after a six and a half year civil war that economically devastated the country. After the war, the new British Stewart Monarch ordered the execution and exile of nearly all of those with Murray blood in Great Britain and became an isolationist state. The Armed Republic went from a pile of ashes to an industrial powerhouse within a decade in what became known as the "British Miracle." They are most known for their innovation in defense and their defense industries which is arguably one of the largest in the world. The current Stewart monarch, Queen Katherine, is trying to solidify the Armed Republic's status as a major power and expand it's economy, breaking it's former isolationism. They are allies of the Commonwealth of Zumreed, and maintain friendly relations with the NAU.
Currently, the Armed republic is embroiled in a conflict with the Republic of Chancetapher after a terrorist attack by the PIRAC during the Queens Coronation.

The Republic of Brazilia: A South American country that was granted complete independence from the Zumreedian Empire. It was formed out of Zumreedian occupied territories during the Great War. The Republic is under the influence of Zumreed but seeks to expand itself. With the blessing of Zumreed they have begun liberating South America from dictatorships in order to create a unified South American country

Just to clarify, joining the Capitalists will most likely mean you will have more naval support. while Communist most likely means you have more Army support.

[Treko]

Just to clarify, joining the Capitalists will most likely mean you will have more naval support. while Communist most likely means you have more Army support.

Also, who would have they air advantage, and is the year going to be 1975 or 1976.

well since I don't have a navy ,my budget would be larger for the ground forces and aerial forces. So i guess i would have an excellent aerial force.

Accepted. I like to use NSTracker because it gives us a quantitative grounding, but we can talk about specifics later. Mongolia isn't open, but there is open space in Central Asia that covers central Russia down to parts of the Caspian Sea, if you check the link to the map you can get a good visual representation of it.

I would like too join, if theres still land lifted that is.

Go for it, the biggest chunk of land is basically anything in South America, there are a few spots open there. Also there is room in Europe if you'd like to play as a successor state to one of our former players.
