[Union Princes]

Will you be playing as your NS nation, an imaginary nation, or an RL nation?: NS
Name of the nation you are playing as: The Commonwealth of the Union Princes
The following part is not for RL nations
Location (should be fairly detailed, but not too detailed, and cannot overlap with one of the NPCs): territories of Austria-Hungary plus the Balkans.
Leader: The 12 Princes of the Commonwealth
Government type (roughly): imperial oligarchical meritocratic dictatorship
Population: 150 million
Army size (realistic!): 2 million standing, 3 million reserves.
History up to the war (briefly!): 300 years of civil war in that region from 1100 to the 1300s, followed by another 400 years of reintergration, revolts, uprisings, more minor civil wars, and border conflicts. An extremely militarized nation for the past 110 years that saw rapid industrialization and population boom after taking an isolationist stance as the 12 Princes were focused on consolidation and repairing infrastructure. Now, after years of tense benign neglect, the 12 Princes are keen on destroying the Soviet Union.

[Andsed]

Well maybe the south part of Poland which would be normal Poland would be invaded instead?

maybe

Eh well if you and southern Poland have good relations then maybe not and we could have Germany invade somewhere else.

I'm trying to avoid massive superpowers. Can you make it a bit smaller?

[Union Princes]

Can I do Austria-Hungary 1914 instead?

[Yatzatz]

Can I do Austria-Hungary 1914 instead?

You can do Austria-Hungary in 1920.
But seriously, maybe half the land they had in 1914. Two-thirds at most.

[Union Princes]

But there was no Austria-Hungary in 1920. It was dismantled after 1919.

So, no Transylvania and Bosnia?

That's the joke.

So Austria, Hungary, and Czechoslovakia? Sounds OK.
That should give Germany a lot of trouble. Unless you ally with them.

[Union Princes]

Don't forget Slovenia and Croatia, need access to sea still.

[Yatzatz]

Don't forget Slovenia and Croatia, need access to sea still.

Alright, The western half of Slovenia and the upper half of the Croatian coastline too. Update your app, change the location and population to fit, and I'll accept you.

[Northern Poland]

When are we gonna start IC? Just asking

[Yatzatz]

When are we gonna start IC? Just asking

Off the top of my head, after either 15 people join or a couple of polls for details are put out, whichever happens later. Probably at most a couple days.

[Union Princes]

Will you be playing as your NS nation, an imaginary nation, or an RL nation?: Imaginary
Name of the nation you are playing as: Austria-Hungary
The following part is not for RL nations
Location (should be fairly detailed, but not too detailed, and cannot overlap with one of the NPCs): Austria, Hungary, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Croatia, and Slovenia.
Leader: Franz Joseph Kruber von Habsburg
Government type (roughly): Absolute Monarchy
Population: 44 million
Army size (realistic!): 1.2 million standing, 800k reserve
History up to the war (briefly!): Born out of a Monarchist coup 20 years ago, the realm of Austria-Hungary that was supposed to be dismantled was glued back together with some territories still lost. Romania had Transylvania, Poland had Galatia, and Italy had the Slovenian Coast. At first, Franz Joseph was boy prince of seven so his grandfather, Gregor von Hapsburg, had to become Kaiser until he became of age. Kaiser Gregor, though old, was no pushover. He quickly pushed for a reintegration of Czechoslovakia which they accepted under the promise of protection against potential German or Soviet aggression. Gaining Slovenia and Croatia was harder as the King of Yugoslavia only gave back those two territories. To the King, Bosnia belonged to the Slavs. Though there was still a language barrier, the Grandfather Kaiser, as he was called, introduced compulsory education of the German language in the military and federal government. This meant that the minorities had to become bilingual in order to work for the government. Franz Joseph inherited the throne at age 17 when his grandfather died of old age of 73. Disciplined and scholarly, the young Kaiser set out to restore Austrian Imperialism over the Balkans and reclaiming territories lost from the First World War.

Slightly lower military, and accepted.

[Union Princes]

Revised. reduced military size by 500k

[Yatzatz]

Alright. Looking forward to seeing how you deal with Germany, the fact that most of your population (Czechoslovakia, Slovenia, and Croatia) probably hate you, and the Italians wanting some juicy Slovenian land.

[Union Princes]

I wouldn't say the minorities would hate me outright but they definitely aren't loyal. If anything, they're pretty much indifferent or mildly disgruntled. The government of Czechoslovakia did agree for annexation while Yugoslavia gave back my southern territory.

I'm wedge between Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy ,and the Soviet Union so its possible for a three-way conflict in Southeast Europe.

I got dibs on the Balkans and Galatia, just saying, its Hapsburg territory.

Italy will not be a problem. After all, God made the Italians just so the Austro-Hungarians could have an enemy to beat.

I mean it would be Habsburg territory if we spelled it right

The governments of Czechoslovakia and Yugoslavia gave you the land. I doubt the people there agree.

Trivia fact about Austria-Hungary versus Italy: In WW1, after Italy joined the war, AH began planning an offensive. However, it leaked, and the plans ended up in the French and Italian press for a month. AH went ahead with it anyway, and Italy didn't prepare at all, so it actually worked.
Also, speaking of Austria-Hungary's military, look up the Battle of Karansebes. It is one of the funniest things I've ever seen.

[Hansdeltania]

Reserve Soviet-ish Union

[Hansdeltania]

Will you be playing as your NS nation, an imaginary nation, or an RL nation? Technically real nation, but with more alternative elements
Name of the nation you are playing as: Union of Russian Republics (also known as Russia or Russian Union)
Location: Original Soviet borders before 1939
Leader: Premier Vassili D. Pachenko
Government type: Federal social democratic republic
Population: 173,847,317 as of 1939
Army size: 747,738 active troops, 16,227,257 reservists, 40,737,139 fit for duty
History up to the war: The October Revolution failed; the Russian Republic lived on and signed the same Brest-Litovsk Treaty. With no October Revolution, Lenin never took power and by that measure, Stalin included. Without Stalin's Five-Year Plans, there was no famine, and Russian factories produced quality products. The Mosin-Nagant M91/30 rifle has been augmented with increasing numbers of AVS-36 and SVT-38 (both predecessors to the SVT-40) semiautomatic rifles, preparing to either match or precede the US as the first major country to issue a self-loading weapon as its standard weapon.

No, sorry. Soviets are an NPC, there's no overlapping with NPCs, and no non-NPC superpowers.
