My bad actually - Alliance ofFree People has this stuff largely in claim but I don't have it on the claims list til now.

[Caturdays]

Well crap. Just not my day today. First I'm a little late for claiming France and then my second choice is taken. It's all good though. Guess I better get to work coming up with a 3rd choice. Third time's a charm.

To be fair any unestablished claim (i.e. pending) can be contested.

[Caturdays]

Eh I'll let him have em. I got my 3rd idea.

EDIT: Application Edited.

[Layarteb]

EDIT: Application Edited.

Tibet & Sikkim are under claim by Ekilion. Tibet can be found under Xizang on the claims list while Sikkim is under it's normal name.

[Banjamos]

Jeez, it's just not your day, man.

[Caturdays]

Hahaha, no it's not.

EDIT: Edited my application yet again.

[Layarteb]

@ The Interstellar Republic

• Your tailcode can only be 1 or 2 letters

Hahaha, no it's not.

EDIT: Edited my application yet again.

Okay three things and none of them stop you from going forward with your intro RP:

• What is your currency symbol?
• Mauritania (Nouakchott) is already claimed so it was not included in your list.
• Your math was off - 1,739,195.815 mi² (4,504,496.000 km²) but you are well within your limits so nothing is needed on your part

Viel Glück!

[Earth_ Two]

I just did a very mini update as follows.

• Caturdays: Claims added, spreadsheet updated, welcome [post your intro]
• RomeW: Claims added
• The Interstellar Republic: Claims added, spreadsheet updated, thread added

[Caturdays]

@Layarteb

1. Added the currency symbol. د.ج
2. Nouakchott was a mistake on my part. Fixed.
3. Funny thing about my math was that I put the total km2 for Senegal as the overall total instead of the actual overall total. Fixed.

EDIT:

  • Thread Owner: Caturdays
  • Location: West Africa
  • Classification: Introduction
  • Synopsis: After the successful invasion of Mauritania by Algeria after being attacked by Mauritania, the President of Algeria and the President of Mauritania sign the treaty that will create the Maghreb Republic and bring the Republic out of obscurity and to the world spotlight. Hopefully in a good light.
  • Miscellaneous Notes:

[Layarteb]

How semi-funny would it be if somewhere in the Levant a chemical weapons attack happened? Of course Earth II sort of turns a blind eye to that *myself included* but still amusing.

[Caturdays]

It would probably be more interesting to see how Levant handled it so soon after becoming independent. Plus who doesn't like a little death and destruction.

Me.

[Layarteb]

Everyone likes death and destruction except Brink, don't be that guy IM. Don't be THAT guy...

[Itailian Maifias]

What? After that little cold war with Olmeria, my people are a little sick of war.

A good batch of F-58 Vipers and a bombing run against Kiev will fix that right up!

Yeah, fly a bomber squad over Army Command. Real smart.

[Layarteb]

Nah you come in real low, moving subsonic, lock onto Russian High Command, fire away, and GTFO!

[Banjamos]

Nah you come in real low, moving subsonic, lock onto Russian High Command, fire away, and GTFO!

I prefer to blow everything up that's on the way to the target...

Well that's one way but you're better off blowing stuff up on the way out.

[Banjamos]

Well that's one way but you're better off blowing stuff up on the way out.

Or one could just blow everything up on the way there and on the way out!

[Layarteb]

Well that's one way but you're better off blowing stuff up on the way out.

LOL! See I'm of the camp that wants to get to the target safely, hit it, and then worry about afterwards.

[Caturdays]

I'm in the camp of hitting key defensive positions around the target before hitting the target with ground forces preserving the integrity of the building so it can be used for your own purposes. But that's not always advisable.

[Layarteb]

This is why I have this.

[Caturdays]

And that's why the Maghreb Republic isn't going to attack the the Empire.
