[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.

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.

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.

Give me game ID and password, if there is one.
not until i see a sample article my lovely friend. a sample article is a bit of writing that you would normally make on the newspaper to prove that you understand the game rules, what is expected of you, and what writing articles are.pythonpix wrote:

for example, here is one directly from the round:
==============================
Growth of the Turkish National Industry
==============================
As supplies continue to come in at increased rates from the middle east, Turkish industry has now maximized its initiatives for national growth using the newly incorporated infrastructure to be placed within major cities and supply routes towards the provinces of kerbala and mosul, while increasing the production capacity of industrial complexes, especially within the cities of Istanbul, Izmir, Adana, Trabzon, and Ankara, the national capital. furthermore, coastal cities and provinces are now the subject of a new initiative brought on by Mustafa Kemal Ataturk in an effort to provide both static and permanent defense against foreign invasions or wars of aggression. The Turkish war against greece in the past signalled the need for naval craft and airplanes as a means of defending both the aegean and regional borders.
====================
Diplomatic Communiques
====================
Turkish attempts to establish alliances with regional powers is not something that is new within the history of Expansionism and defensive tactical strategy. mutual defense aids in compromise as well as the ability to build a bloc of defensive allies to aid in conflicts with other invading powers. As a primary attempt for peace within the international sphere, the Turkish government is willing to attempt for the establishment of various land agreements and military alliances for the safety of its people both at home and abroad. Currently, land agreement attempts seem absolutely necessary within arabia, as the british colony of egypt attempts to expand its sphere of control through the invasion of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

POLAND:
The BBC Shortwave service today broadcast a short article from its Warsaw correspondent, Tadeuz Kulish, reporting on the recent change of government of the Polish Republic. In a surprise move, the Polish premier, Dr Zywickyzc Plochzkek resigned in favor of the head of the Polish Army, Marshal Rogodyctr Snzowl. At a speech announcing the change, Marshal Snzowl emphasized that the new government was committed to significant economic development to enable an increase in the size and effectiveness of the Polish armed forces. "Poland is surrounded by potentially hostile states with huge resources and it behooves us to prepare for the worst while working towards the best", said M. Snzowl, "With this in mind, I have the honor of being able to report that Dr Plochzkek has graciously consented to take on the role of Foreign Minister and we hope that his high international standing will allow us to negotiate appropriate treaties of friendship with our neighbors and other right thinking states". Tad Kulish commented that this swing to the right could be the herald for surprising new initiatives.
The BBC continued with its scheduled program concerning the upcoming London Flower Show.

I forgot the password to my account called General Python. Wait a bit, I am going to fix this issue. Yikes!
Can I play Sweden. Please
After the fall of the Swedish Empire, bringing the great power era of Sweden to an end in 1709. Since then Sweden fell into neutrality, not wanting getting involved with any conflicts. I have a dream. A dream where making Sweden great again. As I watch the world starts to change, the worlds economy heading into a dark path. The worlds powers shifting. My dream soon becomes a desire, reclaiming Sweden's lost territories and conquering old enemies. I only see two options, dictating Sweden's fate. Staying neutrality, letting others taking what they want or go to war, re-militarizing the Swedish Army, bring the economy to war affect, and taking what is rightfully ours. Even it cost a generation, so be it.
- Gustaf V, King of Sweden- 8 December 1924
