As a great man once said, "Holla holla get impeccable."
It's nice to see we can workm something out of this.
@Cale
With my proposal you would be looking at this
That's a pretty damn generous offer, look at all the shit you get. All I'm asking for is a share of the chinese coastal cities
If it's the uranium field you want, there's one over in India you can control, go get it.
You also have two more fields up for grabs in Africa which you are pretty much bound to control as well. Pretty much nobody except Slappy is stopping you from controlling the entire African continent. The entire African continent. So why don't you go get your African diamonds and leave Asia to me?
Nobody likes city hoggers. they are…impeccable

I'm not looking to get Kashmir, Nepal, or Tibet. This is strictly potential Chinese land.

BSoD, I have redrawn an effective map, accounting for the useless terrain in the west.
Be aware that this means you would control about half the world's uranium supply.
Something nobody wants anyone to do.

Actually, the less people have access to Uranium, the better. Provided I get me some…
@Cale
Half of Asia's uranium supply but by no means the worlds. There's still opportunity for you and MDF to get just as much of it as me
The uranium is probably safer with me anyway because I am not Russian Fedora. I'll be using it to tech into nuclear power plants, while everyone else just wants to get their nuke on
Also I can agree to those land arrangements. Since western china (the part bordering persia) is just useless desert, can I have that too?

1. Not really, according to the game's map, most of it is in your reach.
2. Maybe the rest of use want clean energy too?
3. No.

@Cale
1. We are looking at the same map right? There are 10 uranium dig sites. Only 3 in asia. The value of the dig sites have not been quantified and are assumed equal value. 2/10 =/= 50%
2. Fair enough but I have a huge nation and I believe it's going to take more than one site to keep every power plant stocked up. The one in China is the only other site in my reach. The rest are already claimed, except for the ones in Africa but you will get those before I do since you pretty much already control Africa.
3. Pwetty pwease?

You have enough (let's not forget your 3+ oil fields). We feel that this land is best divided up into a Forseti-Angmar venture.
You guys don't even belong in Asia. You are foreign European invaders
If you want a hunk of pacific then go get that juicy looking land mass that's right in the middle of it.
At least you guys have options. you can go colonize Africa or the America's like all the other nations that have the luxuries of a navy
Me? I'm boxed into one continent with no room to grow except into China. Give me room to breathe here.

1). So are you. (Culture: East Slavic (Ruthenian)*)
2). Those islands don't have uranium, which we need.
3). Why not build a navy?
4A). See step three (build a navy).
4B). You still have a huge chunk of China in the current plan. We just get sovereignty over the uranium fields.
*This is also a European Culture. "Ruthenian" typically refers to Slavs from Austria-Hungary, Ukrainians, and some Russians.
1. Damn, you noticed. Well that was a tongue in cheek argument anyway.
2. One in "South America" does. It's in that little cove bordered by Fasier, Medicia and yourself. Nobody owns it. Go get it
2b. You already have control of a uranium deposit. Right there in Sweden, Why does your tiny little nation need two and mine doesn't? If you think the one in Ukraine is good enough for my entire nation then that little deposit in Sweden is certainly more than enough for you. You can keep that and let the bigger nations take their fair share
2c. Same to you Angmar. You can easily capture 3 uranium deposits in Africa and India. Fucking three! Neither of you can argue that you necessarily need the one in china.
3. Because that's a whole entire tech tree that I need to spend several turns climbing up when I am already struggling to catch up on my ground force and economic tech. I cannot afford to spend a whole bunch into a navy when I don't even have control over any seas or any major ports.
4. We both know that the real value is in those port cities. I just want to share those.
[edit]
One more thing: Don't forget that you are both trusted trade partners so if you want uranium, I will be exporting it to you. Even if you don't control the field, you still get some

1). No further discussion required.
2). Arrrr, MDF already be controllin' th' cove.
2B). Den svenska uran insättning är okej, men jag ser verkligen att hålla detta ifrån dig och använda den som en kraft multiplikator.
2C). Does not pertain to me
3). Then you should have built your navy up.
4). If your navy can't do anything, why do you want ports? Do you know how easy it would be for a battleship/frigate-owning country to take it from you?

1. Meh
2. Meh
2b. Meh
2c. I don't think so. The Indian state has obviously already resisted an invasion, leading me to believe them to be quite adept. As for the African States, one is across a thousand miles of desert and the other is in the hands of an African Tribe.
3. We can't give you handicaps for your play style.
4. You have no use for them.
Also I made this since Vlad is now in and you want the Uranium deposit so bad.
Not accepting this means you are a communist.
As a neutral party, I feel the need to mediate here. I hate to see you all fighting over territory so how about I take all of it and we call it a day,

I'm not trying to hassle you, what you do is your own business. I was just lampooning putting time into thread that isn't as useful. I wouldn't be upset if you decided the whole thing is too much effort either. It's the not knowing that kills me.
If you must know the truth, I have been spending all of my spare time with someone special. This thread is still important to me, and it isn't too much work; I just haven't been budgeting my time. I'll put a deadline on myself for all future turns, then you know which day the next one is coming out, and I will be obligated to keep up. The next one will be today.

NEXT TURN: SUNDAY
Political Map
-China collapses into civil war after the abdication of the Imperial Family. The Nationalist Kuomintang and Communist People's Republic are the primary two factions which managed to rise above the petty warlords. An imperial noble family, claiming true rights to the throne, is ruling in exile to the far northeast.
-Angman, Fasien, Medicean, and Vascon miners descend upon Star Island in a fervent rush to claim the land's bountiful natural resources, especially the wealth of fissile elements.
-Map experimentation with armies and navies can be seen in China. Still unsure of whether the decision to add those to the whole map is a good idea. Tell me what you think.
The United Socialist States of Victoria
Dictatorship of the Proletariat
Army:[====|=]
Navy:[===|==]
AirF:[|=====]
-Weapons and supplies are sent to the People's Republic faction in China.
-A nuclear reactor is built, vastly increasing Victorian knowledge of atomic power.
-Destroyers are now being built.
-Advances into aviation tech are made with the invention of the biplane.
-Advanced rocketry is put to good use in the invention of the Short Range Ballistic Missile, a strategic weapon capable of accurately delivering a rocket to a destination up to one thousand kilometers away.
The Kingdom of Fasier
DarkErmac
Army:[===|==]
Navy:[==|===]
AirF:[==|===]
-Torpedo boat destroyers, or simply called destroyers, are developed and put into production. Aircraft carriers are also improved upon.
-The television is invented.
-Mechanical computers, such as punch card systems, are created.
-Oil extraction in Deisea begins.
The United States of the Syserror Republic
Blue Screen (of death)
Army:[====|=]
Navy:[=|====]
AirF:[|=====]
-Democratic ideals are drilled into the minds of young students. The nation's previously centralized federal republic is broken into several states for more efficient local rule. The nation is renamed to 'The United States of the Syserror Republic' to fit the new regime.
-A suggestion is lightly proposed to Persia that their nation should be absorbed into the USSR. They staunchly refuse, and respond by revoking their alliance.
-China is invaded. With the civil war interfering with national defense, there is little the imperial government can do to prevent the capture of the northern territories.
-The radio is invented. Assembly lines are introduced, increasing industrial output. Aviation is experimented with. Armored cars are now in production.
-The oil market turns in favor of Angmar and several Syserrene exporting businesses are made bankrupt as Angmar proves to be capable of producing far cheaper petroleum. The USSR's economy, heavily reliant upon oil refining, crashes, leaving many unemployed.
The Most Serene Republic of Crimsonia
Crimson Locks
Army:[====|=]
Navy:[==|===]
AirF:[=|====]
-The radio is invented. High yield explosives are now being produced. Armored cars are in production. The biplane is developed.
-African colonies are expanded into the interior of the continent.
The Most Serene Republic of Seccia
Slappy the Fish

Navy:[====|=]
AirF:[==|===]
-Torpedo boats, tactical bombers, and seaplane ships are all now in use by the military. Assembly line technology and theory is received from Morrowind.
-Victoria is threatened with force, and they oblige. Alpsia is no longer under enemy occupation.
The Noble Republic of Angmar
Cale the Witch King of Cats
Army:[=====|]
Navy:[===|==]
-The assault rifle is invented. Submersible craft are improved upon for much larger and combat-capable designs. The camera is invented.
-Oil drilling in the Gulf of Persia is subsidized. Exports of petroleum skyrocket as the middle-eastern oil reservoirs prove to be much lighter – and thus easier to drill and use – than Russian stock.
-Serbia and Angmar initiate a dual-citizenry legislation which binds the two nations together. Legal benefits applying to Angmen also apply to Serbians, and vice-versa.
-Military pensions are offered, making service significantly more popular.
The United Kingdom of Vascony
MDFification
Army:[=====|]
Navy:[====|=]
-The overseas provinces are granted home rule and each is established as a new crown kingdom.
-The sub-machine gun is invented. Various types of personal explosive devices are developed. Automobiles are in mass production
-A colonial base is established on the Horn of Africa.
-Skyrim is invaded and captured.
-The assault in Suevia is turned back.
-Morrowind's port cities are shelled, driving down their will to fight on.
-No significant domestic oil sources can be found. Most must be imported, mostly from Angmar and Deisea.
-Victoria offers to agree to a non-aggression pact if the war with Morrowind is brought to a conclusion.
The Noble Republic of Medicea
RocketPropelledPanda
Army:[====|=]
Navy:[==|===]
AirF:[|=====]
-The telephone is invented.
-Biplanes are in production, although the military rarely uses them. They are pushed for civilian use and transportation.
-Ambassadors to Victoria manage to open trade with the nation.
The Most Serene Republic of Morrowind
Fridge Logic
Army:[====|=]
Navy:[===|==]
AirF:[|=====]
-Monoplanes are created, and increased in size to create large strategic bombers. Submersibles are received from Angmar, and improved upon. Seaplane ships are in production as well.
-The new bombers are utilized to assault Brasil. The islands are bombed day in and day out, resulting in many civilian casualties and significant hatred for the Dunmer across Vascony.
-Victoria refuses to engage in the conflict yet. However, they have made a series of threats against Vascony, and are mobilizing their armies for deployment into bordering Vascon territories.
-Dunmer propaganda is littered across Skyrim just before occupation by Vascon troops.
-Manifest Destiny is achieved; the pacific ocean has been reached, spurring on great national pride. This, combined with the stress of war in the east, has resulted in a mass exodus to the far west.
The Federal Republic of Forseti
Vlad
Army:[====|=]
Navy:[====|=]
AirF:[|=====]
-A functioning nuclear reactor is built, although it is far from being capable of putting out enough energy to cover the cost of construction and maintenance.
-Japan has fallen, and is annexed.
-Automotive technologies improve, and a crude tank is developed.
-"Operation Leviathan" is initiated in Sweden to gain enough uranium to continue nuclear projects and fortify the region from foreign attacks.
-China is invaded. The collapsing regime is unable to prevent the capture of portions of Manchuria.
