To What Is Rightfully Ours (OOC|MT-EPMT|GD|Semi-Open)

[Martilia]

TO WHAT IS RIGHTFULLY OURS

BACKGROUND

According to Mokastana, in order for me to gain more land in the region I need to do some roleplay in order to legitimize Martilia as to having a huge territory. This is why I have decided to create this thread for GD members to join. Although non-GD members could join as observers or probably just to react to the ongoing conflict within the region.

SCENARIO

Martilia was considered as one of the most advanced and influential nations in the world, but due to the collapse of the Haluziki government, suffering from their worst economic depression in the 21st century, and the subsequent failure of the new government to control separatists on the outermost regions of the country, most of them separated and formed their own illegitimate governments and sovereign states. Now, after recovering from these setbacks the government plans to retake what they considered as "rightfully theirs".

ACTORS

I plan this RP to last for a month or two perhaps, depending on how long the players would be able to reply on this thread and also as rich in story as possible as I think this would be recorded in the regional history of GD (with approval of The Macabees of course) with that said there should probably be no more than three sides and seven actors/nations joining the roleplay. Here is the breakdown:

• Expansionist Coalition (2 other nations) - These are the nations that will join on my side in conquering the lands that would be put under my territory.
• Dummy Nations (2 nations)- These nations are the nations that will be invaded in order to expand my territories in an RP way. I suggest that these nations should be non-original nations or nations that are just created temporarily by another player as part of the roleplay. (Although I suggest to balance out the roleplay is that one dummy nation should be controlled by a player from the Expansionist Coaltion, while the other is controlled by a player from the Containment Coaltion)
• Containment Coalition (2 nations) - These are the nations that will work with the dummy nations and probably protect them and will provide support throughout the roleplay.

NOTE: These factions ARE NOT THE OFFICIAL FACTION names. They're just named like that to easily spot the difference between them.

HOW TO JOIN

You just need to fill out the application form below with just one special requirement: your country must be located in Greater Dienstad. Simple isn't it?

No. of Years in Nationstates:5 years.
No. of Years in Greater Dienstad (since your most recent migration):⁶⁷³/_245,808 years.

And to have fun doing so!!

[Wanderjar]

What kind of countries are the dummy nations? I think I'd like to RP one of them for you, that's kind of something I enjoy doing. Depending on the nature of those countries, Wanderjar may be involved sending special forces of some kind.

[Palmyrion]

[ROLEPLAY APPLICATION FORM]
Full country name: Royal Palmyrian Commonwealth (Ang Makahang Mankomunidad ng Palmyria)
Government type: Semi-constitutional monarchy
No. of Years in Nationstates: Esalonia was my first nation, founded on 2014, so approximately 3 years.
No. of Years in Greater Dienstad (since your most recent migration): I recall I moved to Greater Dienstad on 2016, so I've been here for almost a year.
Coalition: Containment
RP Reason for Joining that Coalition: Containing the spread of Communism and the influence of far western GD slaver powers (because Potthan joined the other side). Sure, one of the insurgencies may be socialist, but with a little grooming and wooing they might become mixed capitalist
Expectations in the Upcoming Roleplay (OPTIONAL): The sphere of influence of Palmyrion and the Romani-Mar'si Union (RMU) expands as a whole; Palmyrion and RMU as a whole gain a new trade partner; they can gain a staging ground for their military assets for future anti-slaver operations (I'm looking at you, Ralkovia) in western Greater Dienstad.

So, Filipinos crossing swords against fellow Filipinos?

[Deamonopolis]

[ROLEPLAY APPLICATION FORM]
Full country name: The National Republic of Deamonopolis, or just Deamonopolis for short.
Government type:Single party state
No. of Years in Nationstates: Since november 2003-2005, several year hiatus for reasons best left undiscussed, semi-active again since 2012.
No. of Years in Greater Dienstad (since your most recent migration): I forgot, but my previous incarnations (Holy Panooly/Guffingford) were actually the founders of Imperial Armies, GD's predecessor.
Coalition: Dummy nations
RP Reason for Joining that Coalition: Deamonopolis' lack of activity in the region shouldn't be interpreted as a lack of power to act when threatened. Because of the sheer size of its landmass (twice the size of Africa I imagine it to be), it is impossible to guard the entire coast, so it's a logical target for expansion - and because Deamonopolis only has the flimsiest of diplomatic relations with other GD powers - attacking such a forlorn place shouldn't ruffle too many feathers, one can reason.
Expectations in the Upcoming Roleplay (OPTIONAL): N/A

These are the nations that would be conquered by my country after the RP ended. They're called dummy nations because they're just here temporarily.

I believe you cannot join as a dummy nation tho, these are just nations that would be rolled over during the RP.

To all those who have been accepted, and plan to observe the RP. You may start doing some News Dispatches and feel free to PM it to me so I could add it to the list of events in the OP.

Hmm. So you will be like funding separatist groups or supporter groups within the dummy nations?

Sure thing. Though, we'd ideally like some resource rights and some trade/claim benefits if that seems fair.

Cool, I'll get on it

[Lakanda]

Hi!

[Palmyrion]

If the situation escalates the RMU nations of Sha Mobutia, Holy Marsh, and Romandeos may enter the war. Sha Mobutia's contribution in preventing the Ralkovians from making full use of the Dikk River will be invaluable in this war.

Perhaps this might be the conflict that will trigger the Ralkovia-RMU War that spans the entirety of western GD?

Expectations in the Upcoming Roleplay (OPTIONAL):

Hmm, the maximum number of players that could intervene in the war with a sizable force has been reached. Although I could let you in if you agree to limited deployment to troops such as an expeditionary force attached to the coalition? Or providing an aerial support or bombardment? Or anything that is with very limited deployment.

Hi!

Oh, hello there!

Perhaps this might be the conflict that will trigger the Ralkovia-RMU War that spans the entirety of western GD?

It could be used as a pretext but in order for it to be fully legit I think there should be another incident or probably a division between nations that could spark this wider conflict. Or maybe this caused a serious tension between the nations because of my conflict?

Sure, but my nation does have interests in western GD and we have a hostile foriegn policy to communist nations so the Arcadian military would have alot of troops on the ground, and since you used to be a communist empire, my government would want to prevent that, but my nation could always attack yours later on.

EDIT: I'll just stick to small numbers, air support, and special operations

Alright. If you want to have a conflict with me let's do it in another thread instead. It's hard to have multiple wars in a single thread anyways.

[Houdou]

[ROLEPLAY APPLICATION FORM]
Full country name: Empire of Houdou
Government type: Capitalist Absolute Monarchy masquerading as a Constitutional Monarchy
No. of Years in Nationstates: 8 years or so
No. of Years in Greater Dienstad (since your most recent migration): 5 days (Very recent return)
Coalition: Expansionist (Expansionist, Containment)
RP Reason for Joining that Coalition: Pragmatic grand strategy concern. Propping up a strong, friendly socialist state in the Gulf of Chain region to strengthen Houdou's influence in the volatile but important Western Dienstadi region. Achieving a balance of power against other regional powers. Trying to acquire a friendly port and market north of the Houdou colonies.
Expectations in the Upcoming Roleplay (OPTIONAL): Houdou wants to expand its influence. Since the main player slots are crowded, I'd be doing mostly materials and training support for Martillia. Might be overt or covert, depends on the international situation. There's a possibility of directly-led air strikes against Matahi, too. Pre-war training or supplying of advanced aircrafts / missile might also in the agenda. Ground force is unlikely, but Houdou might consider air strikes.
