[RPU Training] 1925 Onwards Roleplay: A Slightly Altered History

[RPU] 1925 Onwards Roleplay: A Slightly Altered History

Introductory Note:

I have seen several roleplays in the previous weeks start and die within the first three weeks, and even in certain cases, the first three days. I would like to state that those who would like to participate will be required to have a discord account in order to both provide appropriate communication and in order to inhibit this sort of inactivity.

A Link to the Required Discord Server: https://discord.gg/5hwbgDM

Roleplay Lore:

Our story starts in the 1860s. The Failure of the United States of America to reunite has led to the full establishment and recognition of both the United States of America, Formally renaming itself into the Northern States of America (NSA), while the Confederate States reaffirms its sovereignty by re-establishing itself as the Southern States of America (SSA). In all this chaos, a breakaway state, known as the Republic of Michigan is formed, with its capital in Detroit. A following referendum by residents within the city of Windsor in Ontario, Canada choose to enter in union with the Republic of Michigan.

It is now the year 1925. The past war has left both Europe and the rest of the world in partial ruin. Hungarian refusal of the Treaty of Trianon has led to Its invasion and annexation by Romania, now recognizing itself as "Greater Romania". Greek Failures in the Turkish War of Independence has led to Italian and British governments granting Greece control over Cyprus and the Island of Rhodes.

The Russian Civil War has ended in an uncertain compromise between factions, partially recognizing the sovereignty of one another in which both new republics are formed, and nations such as Finland gain vital regions such as Northern Karelia.

Obvious Rules:

1-No Trolling

2-No Gold Usage allowed.

3-No Landgrabbing and random invasions. We are here to roleplay, not kill each other off.

4-Please Be Respectful

5-Follow the Rules.

6-Post on the DE as often as possible, However let me know if you might not be able to post or if you miss a day.

7-The game will not officially begin until Day 1 of the round, so you are not required to post until then, however i would like people to get to know each other, so post on the DE stating who you are.

Other Possibly Obvious Rules:

1- 1 day=6 months, therefore 2 days= 1 year

2- It is good to have general knowledge of post ww1 history and of anything that occurs between nations.

3-If a nation becomes 5 provinces, other nations planning on taking over it have the ability to vassalize that nation.

4-Vassalization: Economic and military control over that nation. you are allowed to gift it provinces if you would like.

5-Be Mindful of Relationship statuses with other nations within this time period.

What Buildings Can I Build?

-Anything, do what you want.

Unit Limits?

None. Spam those Artillery Units!

INFAMY RULES (for maintaining diplomatic order)

Infamy will be the "aggressive expansion" counter for this game in order to ensure that players are not expanding rapidly and uncontrollably.

INFAMY COOLDOWN: infamy drops by 5 for all nations, every 5 days (2.5) years.

-If you are at war for more than 3 years, the infamy cooldown is negated for you until peace.

-Infamy Cooldown stops at 0 infamy.

+50 INFAMY IS THE LIMIT: anything above triggers a coalition war.

Coalition War: Nations Around you gain 0 infamy for taking the amount of provinces that push you over the infamy limit.

+40 Infamy gained for revolting or declaring independence from your overlord

+20 Infamy gained for joining someone's war

+50 Infamy gained for breaking peace periods

(Peace Periods must last longer than 1 year)

+10 Infamy gained for declaring war on a country

+5 Infamy gained for taking a province, for both sides of the war

(if you take someone's province, and he takes it back, you both gain 5 infamy)

+5 Infamy gained for starting a colonial war implemented. ( war conducted in colonies and at sea only - if war is to occur in Europe then a separate post must be made declaring as such and taking the infamy hit for it )

-20 Infamy lost for granting independence to a vassal state

-Anything under 5 provinces is vassalized if it loses a war and is an active player.

-If it is inactive, it loses its provinces as per the infamy rules.

At this point, if you have read the rules, please do reply to this thread with your choice of nation and sample article. Thank you, and you will be informed individually once we can begin.

Eyo.

Italy, plis.

Italy, a relatively young kingdom. 1861 marked the year of the formation of the Kingdom - a unification of former great kingdoms, duchies, and republics, known for their innovative and scientific advancements throughout the medieval centuries of Europe. However, despite its young age, the Kingdom did not miss its potential for colonial expansion. Just on the opposite side of the Mediterranean sea lies the Italian colony of Libya. Italy prides itself on this African colony, and considers it a de jure part of the Italian Kingdom.

In recent years, with tensions in Europe growing after the Great War, Italy has shifted its national focus to centralisation, with goals of becoming a strong and stable Southern European military power. However, the Italian peninsula offers great potential for expansion, as well as threats. To the East lies the Yugoslavian Republic, the Greek Kingdom, the Remnants of the Ottoman Empire - the Republic of Turkey. To the North, the German people and their iron will of Central European domination. To the West - the proud French, and the isolationist Spaniards. Italy will attempt something that it has not achieved for centuries, or even millennia - to form a Mediterranean Empire, second to only the Roman Empire of old.

Herro I would like to play as The French Third Republic please

After having it's economy shriveled due to the past war, the Parliamentary Republic of The French Third Republic is stumped on what it's next economic move shall be. The war left them broke and with little to none resources to work with. Although President Raymond Poincaré has high hopes for the Republic. Staying away from the negative side of things, Poincaré wants to focus on it's economical power as well as Diplomatic relationships.

President Raymond Poincaré's speech in 1925:

"The current status of this country, is crippled. We will not be able to recover from the tragedies of World War One, alone. We must work together to rebuild this nation and restore it's glory. When have we ever given up? Never!

And we shall not give up now. Our Parliament is working with our allies in an attempt to trade for resources to rebuild our factories and workplaces. We will recreate the Republic together. And Remember, without failure, there can't be success."

- President Raymond Poincaré

The Southern States of America purty pls.

Southern States of America, a relatively young republic, still reeling from the loss of a war that killed hundreds of thousands within just a few years. 1865 marked the year of the formation of the republic - a unification of great states, known for their innovative advancements of crop harvesting throughout the first half of the 19th century. However, despite its young age, the republic did not miss its potential for screwing over its Northern neighbors, convincing the the group of states of war crimes committed by, what was then the U.S. government, that would propel them into chaos for the next century.

In recent years, with tensions in North America growing again after the conclusion of the first World War due to exporting power, the Southern States have shifted their focus to industrialization, with goals of becoming the absolute regional power of North America, uninterested in global influence for the moment. The South's many midsize cities offer great potential for expansion into the industrial sector, as well as improvement for agricultural practices. To the East lies the Atlantic Ocean, the gateway for future Southern imperialism. To the North lies the repulsive brother to the Southern states, the ones who lost a war of unification and progress. To the West, the remaining territories of the United States that were never fully settled, land that the Southern states see as resource opportunity. In the coming years, the Southern States seek to achieve a monumental task that both they and their northern neighbor failed to accomplish in the first half of the 1860s, uniting what once were the United States under one banner and one God.

The Weimar Republic

After years of division the Prussian Confederation unites the Germanic people creating the Weimar Republic. Being the center of Europe the Weimar Republic has been fighting most of the conflicts in Europe. During the American Civil War the Weimar Republic supported the NSA seeing that they could make an ally out of the NSA. This created tension between the Weimar Republic and the UK who was mainly supporting the CSA. The Weimar Republic also took apart of fall of the Russian Empire supporting RDFR. With the Russian Empire out of the way the Weimar Republic is know in acting more of its plans. The Wilhelm II continues to rule with major power in Europe. The Weimar Republic intends to win this time and nothing will stop the will of Weimar!

I would like to be The Republic of Ukraine.

As tensions arise in Eastern Europe, President Sasha Petrov has promised its people peace and prosperity. Can't that promise be kept? People throughout Ukraine rejoice of this promise to show that there still hope for humanity. Though, they are uncertain at the same time. Ukraine's Economic issues began to decline and wheat begin to grow. President Sasha Petrov has began the Conscription Act starting next year. He fears that Caucasus and their Northern brothers will initate a war against Ukriane.

United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, Please

Despite the British being successful, the British Empire was infinitely shaken, and in a turmoil of stability. With Tensions growing throughout Europe once again, it remains a question if Britain can afford another war of conscriptions and rations, and death. Though the British spirit is of patriotism and jingoism, another crisis could be the straw that breaks the camel's back, and sees the largest empire in human history collapse like a house of cards.

I would like to do the The Kingdom of Spain.

As the The Kingdom of Spain has just pulled out of a civil war and past that has lost all its wealth. The Kingdom of Spain has to come together and fight. The Kingdom of Spain has no war goals but the other Europeans do and to prevent a large war, The Kingdom of Spain has to fight off the rest of the world to give The Kingdom of Spain time to rest. May all odds be with Spain and may the Kingdom live through the Black night to see the bright of day.

I would like to be the Russian Empire

General Tarkov my friend, I would like to request a sample article. anything will do as it shows consideration and proper article writing skill :) Thank you in advance.

The Dominion of Canada please-

In game name- pieguy13

The Dominion of Canada is very exited to support it's British Allies, and with it's new leader, Brian McDonald, will support it's master country even better than before. As we head into an uncertain time, with many leaders of the world making sure they support one alliance inside of the complex system the world has become, The Dominion of Canada wishes to not be confused, and stand by its leader. As The Dominion of Canada wishes to grow stronger in this uncertain time, it wishes to remain neutral, but if forced to, will retaliate. The Dominion of Canada must grow strong. Long live Canada!

:D

The Russian Empire

The Russian Empire was founded as multiple Soviet states started to betray eachother. General Tarkov of the Soviets Red Army was elected the leader of the Russian empire he stated in his speech " We will restore the Soviet Union to it's rightful state! We will work to benefit the people of the Russian Empire! Our militaries will be ready for any conflict."

Kingdom of Sweden

Ever since the height of its power during the 17th and 18th Centuries, the Monarchy in Sweden has kept Sweden neutral and out of the wars in Europe. However times are changing and as a Constitutional Monarch, King Gustaf V holds little real power. There are growing circles both in Parliament and in the military that would like to see Sweden rise up back to the dominant power in the Baltic that it once was. Now with the election of General Karl von Essen as Prime Minister, many are wondering what the future for Sweden will be.

Both of you are accepted. that brings our required players down to 11, though we may start earlier. If anyone else is interested, do not hesitate to apply.

Also @Gen Tarkov, Your sample article was nice, but I am slightly confused. did you mean to apply for the Soviet Union or the Russian Republic? as the sample you provided seems to be a mix for both of them.

I have recieved a discord based article from Francisco Vila:

Yugoslavia, please

During the 1860's strife and rebelion occured in Yugoslavia due to the possible outbreak of previous wars forcing the government to enact martial law which blocked all froms of travel in and out of the country, and shortly became isolationist country which now is lead by a dictator government, and lead to thousands of lives, hungry. Fast forward to 1925, countless of rebellions occured destroying half of the country over the span of years and now the country is a full blown warzone as the rebels have organized themselves into one true force to be reckoned for the first time, and now the dictatorship is overthrown elections begin once again. (this is where i join)

Sample article (I use the Radio Format Cause its Fun)

Yugoslavia Radio!

=================================================

"This is your local disc jockey, Nikolai Kelkin and tada tada, i've got some news just listen to this"

"It's finally happened folks, we are free from that viscious dictator! Hoozah! but with great sacrifice comes with costs as cities all over yugoslavia is now leveled by government and Rebel fire which displaces several families which is very tragic, In other news we finally get to see the outside world! And i've got to say kiddies its absolutely amazing! oooo-hweee!"

The Application is accepted.

"well that is for the news, folks here have some music, we got the ink spots with I don't want to set the world on fire...enjoy"(edited)
