1870 : Alternative Divergence [AH][OOC][REBOOT]

[Seinlo]

Why would that be?

I already said from the beginning that the early part with Crusades and all might not hold.

But as there was no Islamic Renaissance, the shrewdness of the Rasulids and power/techness that would ensue may not work.

that would mean scrapping my navy, my army, and being reduced to levels that are completely unfair because I would never have been able to expand, and thus wouldn't have any valuable land.

That completely ruins my concept. I don't like this guidance, anymore. All it's doing is giving my nation yet another disadvantage.

How does it?

It merely blocks Islam from expanding into Europe or northern Africa. And a direct consequence of that is that yes, the Islam would have no Golden Age in the sense that it had in real life.

But as there was no Islamic Renaissance, the shrewdness of the Rasulids and power/techness that would ensue may not work.

I said from the beginning that Islam is crushed and sent back early on. I can't afford a strong Muslim presence in the centuries needed for the Imperium to solidify its territories.

There are going to be three Muslim player nations. It includes Elerian's, Mauristan's, and my own. Islam isn't going to be small, Trace. There are tens of millions of us.

Oh. I don't know. I'm just concerned because Danceria mentioned scrapping my app's history.

Rubbish, Islam being what it was wouldn't have built what you did, it's already been said you wouldn't have been a power house which you accepted Be sensible the sky is not falling and use some creativity instead, especially as you'd already been told you wern't getting any Pakistan at all.

And I already did say countless times that half of his history, from Islam reaching Persia and to the Crusades won't stand.

Government Description : The Government of the Commune of France is divided into a Legislative, Judicial, and Executive Branch with all three being subjective to the Legislative. The Legislative is known as the French People's Congress, composed of two houses. The Commune of the Union, composed of 126 voting members and the Commune of Regions composed of 26 voting members appointed by regional government councils, who both appoints the Chairman of the Executive Committee, Premier of the French Commune, and the appointment of Supreme Court Justices and convenes once every 5 years unless called for a special session. The Revolutionary Committee functioned as a congress of appointed representatives to handle oversight of the state when the Congress was not in session. The Revolutionary Committee is headed by the Premier, and is responsible for the establishment of the ideals of both of French Revolution and the establishment of the state in accordance with socialist principles. It holds the power to issue laws, create ministries, oversee policies, call for impeachment of the Chairman, and serve as general oversight and review of the French government. Governed by the National Republican Party, ran by the Premier.

Majority/State Religion : Majority Protestant, however no official state religion.
Religious Description : N/A

Economic Ideologies : Socialism
Major Production : Agriculture, Finance, Manufacturing
Economic Description : The French Commune is an industrial powerhouse, with agriculture elements still existing in many regions as well. With urbanization at an all time high, many labor jobs by unskilled workers have been taken leading to a development of railroads and other industrial goods to service the french worker. The economy is mainly overseen by the Regional Councils, who invest in certain industries in order to encourage growth in areas most needed which has lead to many new industries taking hold and expanding the french economy.

Army Strength : Composed of 300,000 men who are well equipped, well trained, and have good leadership. Divided into the French Army, and French National Guard. With the French Army holding 210,000 and the National Guard holding 90,000.

Further Military Description : The French Armed Forces is under the control of The Revolutionary Committee, placing the general leadership of the military under the Premier in an operational capacity, but recognizes the Chairman as the de jure commander in chief. The military is split between the French Army, French National Guard, French Marines, and the French Navy all being placed into a Ministry of Defence underneath the Revolutionary Committee.

National Goals : Encourage the spread of socialist thought across the world. (World Revolution!)
National Issues : Internal Political Stability (Infighting between factions), and External Security.
National Figures of Interest : Jules Guesde is the first, due to him being a main figure behind the commune movement. With his writings ushering french socialist ideals and his propaganda spread amongst the workers, makes him invaluable among keeping the social movement alive. Charles Delescluze, the Premier of the state was known for his militancy in dealing with the old regime and the official enforcer and leader of the National Republican Party (NRP). Also known for instituting Delescluzism, which is a mix between economic socialism combined with elements of capitalism to allow for the government to have a decentralized role in economics, by instead of fully controlling the large business entities, but instead granting certain bonuses and privileges to certain industries and promoting investment, while allowing other industries to develop on their own. However, regulation is pressed on all business entities throughout france, and the rights of the public worker are always taken into account before the rights of business owners. Paul Lafargue, advocates for a more Marxist State and is popular with the younger elements of the National Republican Party, advocating for a vanguard and advancement of a Marxist State. Believes the current state is to moderate. Louis Auguste Blanqui, advocating for Blanquism which advocates that socialist revolution should be carried out by a relatively small group of highly organised and secretive conspirators. Popular in France with certain intellectuals, but not anywhere else.
National Ambition/Aspirations : World Socialist Revolution.

History :

• May 5th, 1789 - 9th November 1799 - French Revolution begins, throughout the period socialist movements begin to spring up in support of the ideas of Liberty, Equality, and Fraternity. Creation of the French Council of Socialist, with membership growing due to popularity achieved during this period.
  
• November 9th 1799 - April 6, 1814 - Napoleon Bonaparte's coup is supported by the French Council of Socialist, with many in the council serving in various low government positions within napoleons government during this time.
  
• July 8th 1815 - September 16th 1836 - French Council of Socialist begins to be target Louis XVIII after the reestablishment of a monarchy. Establishing printing presses to publish anti-monarchist propaganda, and printing the new government as a puppet of other European powers. This soon lead to a campaign of violence across France with Anti-Monarchist and Pro-Napoleon forces engaging in violence against Pro-Monarchist and Anti-Napoleon forces.
  
• 1836-1848 - During these years, the French Council of Socialist began to take part in a more bloody campaign against the Pro-Monarchist and Anti-Napoleon forces which they called the "White Forces." And the White Forces began calling the other the "Red Forces." Over the years, these groups engaged in various violent actions with killings and arson taking place on all sides. Eventually, the Red Forces won out by assisting Napoleon III into proclaiming a French Second Republic, and appointing various leaders of the French Council of Socialist to important positions.
  
• 1848-1864 - During these years, the French Council of Socialist continued to grow and Napoleon III set up the second French Empire. During these times, Louis Charles Delescluze began to rally up political capital in the French Council of Socialist and officially split the council by establishing his own National Republican Party. The party was not a collection of various socialist ideologies like the old French Council of Socialist, but rather a party advocating a particular type of socialism spoke and written by Delescluze. He was later joined by young writer Jules Guesde and Paul Lafargue, which lead to his stance becoming super popular all throughout france. In 1866, the National Republican Party stormed into parliment, declaring that the Second French Empire no longer served the interests of France and that the National Republican Party shall guide the nation. The NRP were supported by the French National Guard, and a majority of the french working class.
  
• 1864-1865 - Napoleon III, ordered the French Army to begin to arrests the leaders of the coup and attempted to remain in control. This lead to a short, but bloody civil war spanning over 300,000 causalities, leading to the trial and execution of Napoleon III by the conspirators. The French Federative Socialist Republic was officially declared during this time.
  
• 1865-1867 - The French Federative Socialist Republic ended a number of practices of the old french regime, and instituted the new ideology of Delescluzism throughout France. Many old land owners were replaced, and leadership in the French Navy was put on trial and executed. This period was known as "The Transformation of French Society and Customs." And lead to France not only successfully transitioning into a socialist country, but also maintaining the successes of the French Revolution that was fought for years ago.
  
• 1867-1869 - The French Federative Socialist Republic begins an official military campaign into Iberia, intending to conquer new land for industry after the loss of many portions of Eastern France from Spain. The war drags on for two years, ending in a decisive French Victory once Madrid was taken.
  
• 1869-1870 - Spain succeeds eastern territories of Catalonia, Aragon, Navarre, Basque Country, La Rioja, and Valencia to France, maintaining the rest for spain. French troops held in eastern regions for peacekeeping purposes, helping to legitimize the new government.

This has nothing to do with what I'm talking about. Where did I mention Pakistan? Where did I mentioj being a power house?

All I mentioned was not wanting to have a totally worthless nation.



Never said Islam reached Persia.

Bur, alright, I'll just let you guys chew me out, and explode, and take out your frustrations on me

It says at the beginning of your history.

It specifically said that it didn't reach far into Persia, and I removed that part in my doc, as I removed the in-fighting.

Chill, Trace. I'm not in the mood to deal with this right now.

[Novacom]

Rubbish, Islam being what it was wouldn't have built what you did, it's already been said you wouldn't have been a power house which you accepted Be sensible the sky is not falling and use some creativity instead, especially as you'd already been told you wern't getting any Pakistan at all.

If I was chewing you up or taking my Frustrations out on you you'd more than know about it.

You don't have a totally worthless nation, you mentioned Pakistan because of the Ghurid's, you mentioned being worthless despite not being so, so I shall repeat what I said Before.

The Sky is not falling, Use some Creativity.

I am perfectly claim. But this isn't your fault, you are the one who worked on a history with the full knowledge that it might not be kept.

[Seinlo]

Besides, even if it did reach Persia (which would probably happen through waterways), if it didn't pass the Yazd province, the Zoroastrians could have still gained control of the nation.

We don't even know if Persia is being made, either, but that probably wouldn't have any impact on anything except for claims.

[Seinlo]

I don't even care anymore. I'm being fumed at, and ganged up on, and there's no reason for it.

It doesn't matter all that much as the fact that you were told that Islam couldn't reach Persia, and yet you mentioned it. It's more about the principle, listen to what the OP board is saying.

[Tracian Empire]

I don't even care anymore. I'm being fumed at, and ganged up on, and there's no reason for it.

This is all in your imagination, no one is ganging up on you. We are merely responding to your frustration to tell you that there is nothing to be frustrated about, and I am merely stating that I do find you having not listened to my historical indications somewhat annoying. That's it.

Mm'kay. I don't care about it reaching Persia, Trace. You're the one that brought it up. I can easily have Islam reach other areas throughour Arabia, Africa, and India fhrough colonization, explorers, and other such things (sea lanes are gud, yay), but Persia doesn't matter.

I brought it up because it's a matter of principle, and you have had similar actions in which you have ignored members of the OP board and what they were saying.

[Seinlo]

I'm going to go do stuff (maybe), and think about if it's possible for trade with other nations to have brought me the tech and science I need for my nation to be an affluent, educated, intelligent society. Pakistan is irrelevant, as are the Ghurids, and if they're still in my app that is a mistake. Mentions of Persia will be removed. If Persia isn't made, I would like to have that strip of territory on the other side of the Hormuz that I had IRL.

I'll also come up with an explorer named something else other than Muhammad Ibn Battuta. Perhaps just Ibn Batutah/Battuta, from Morocco, who will still be a great explorer.

Then I will wait, or come up with my econkmic boom guidance (which I hope Elerian will still help me with), or both. Probably both.

Mm'kay. I don't care about it reaching Persia, Trace. You're the one that brought it up. I can easily have Islam reach other areas throughour Arabia, Africa, and India fhrough colonization, explorers, and other such things (sea lanes are gud, yay), but Persia doesn't matter.

I forglt it was there. Doesn't mean anything, and I'm sorry if you thought otherwise.

[Seinlo]

Maybe an explorer from somewhere else would be better. Asia, or Europe, or... Well, those are about it if he isn't from Africa.

[Tracian Empire]

Considering the update in the app of France, it is now accepted.

When does the Hunnia reservation expire?

[Tracian Empire]

Full Nation Name : Kingdom of Germania, or Germanic Empire
Majority/Official Culture :German
Territorial Core : Germany, Denmark, Prussia, Silesia, Iceland, Cameroon, South Africa on the Map, New Zealand, Mauritius and Reunion Island.
Territorial Claim :Rest of South Africa, rest of the Baltic coast, Poland, Bohemia
Capital City :Hamburg
Population : 50 million

Government Type : Constitutional Monarchy
Government Ideology/Policies : militant
Government Focus : Largely focused on Economy with Military focus to enforce colonies, trade, etc.
Head of State : King Otto V
Head of Government : Dictator Johann Kleiner
Government Description : Most of the power still resides with the King, the elected Senate is administrated by the Dictator who is appointed from their number by the king. The Senate can veto the King's decree's with a 2/3rds majority. Laws made by the Senate must be okayed by the King unless the Senate overrules him with a 2/3rds majority. The King has full executive powers and can grant amnesty or declare a state of emergency giving him full power with just the acceptance of the Dictator.

Majority/State Religion : Teutonist
Religious Description : Combination of Catholic Christian Hierarchy with Old Germanic Pagan gods and Myths into the religion. Each of the old gods is worshiped as a patron angel sent by god to watch over and guide humanity. Except Hel and Fenrir who fell with Lucifer and satan which are separate beings in the Teutonist Psuedo Pantheon. The Teutonist symbol is a upside down Hammer inlaid into the Cross. The Term Apostle is used for the leader of the Church, much like a pope. The Church is centered out of Koln or Cologne.

Economic Ideologies : Protective Capitalism
Major Production : Refined materials and processed and manufactured goods.
Economic Description : Largely set up to refine imported materials as well as those found in the homeland regions of Germania. The exported items include weapons, textiles, building materials, and completed machinery and machinery parts among several others.

Army Strength : High Morale, Very Well Equipped and trained.
Army Weakness : smaller force, has a small fraction of forces outside wartime, continuously changing equipment can lead to logistical problems
Naval Strength : Hardy and fast ships
Naval Weakness : few vessels compared to non military ships
Further Military Description : The Germanic Military has a long and proud history often stretched to include Arminius who defeated the Romans in the Teutoburg forest in antiquity. With extreme pride and loyalty to Germania the Army boasts a strong morale and being one of the most advanced nations on the globe the troops have top of the line equipment and training. Sadly they are a smaller force and often cut their troops down to a token force outside of wartime. A major flaw in the Germanic Army is the continuous striving for better equipment. While not always a problem when it is it cripples the forces as some units will have little to no access to ammunition for different weapons from their sister units. This can lead to problems and even fighting over ammunition and equipment between units.

The Germanic navy boasts some of the finest ships in the world, often behemoth in size and extremely durable in construction these vessels are very fast compared to many counterparts due to the Germanic engines used. Sadly there are few of such ships and in time of total war old obsolete vessels must be brought into commission to enlarge the forces. The main problem lies outside of full on naval engagements however as the many Germanic merchant and civilian flotillas require naval protection which spreads the Germanic fleets out considerably.

National Goals : Expand via territories and economy.
National Issues : weaker nations must be defeated more trade must open up.
National Figures of Interest : King Otto I, Arminius, Queen Kunigunde the Catholic, King Augustus III, King Frederick the Teuton.
National Ambition/Aspirations : Dominance of Continental Europe and massive colonies.

486 AD: A unified force of German Stem Duchies and Tribes resist Frankish incursions into Germania proper. After the Expulsion of Frankish troops a bold powerplay by one of several Germanic Chieftains gives him a large Kingdom he would Dub Germania. It would stretch from the Rhine to the Elbe and as far south as the Danube. Not called Germania by other German Tribes, their name for the state has been lost to time.
495 AD: Germania under the first recorded king, King Reinhard I expands to include the coastal region near the mouths of the Elbe and Weser rivers.

670 AD: King Ingolf II bans the Catholic Church from Germania, however the Teutonist Church is largely just a slight alteration to the Catholic church that says the germanic gods were angels that appeared before Germans centuries ago to aide them.
