I don't care if you don't like me. Grow up, suck it up, and change the maps to show my holdings. TGSR reconizes it, why can't you? You are causing people a lot of greif when they realize that what they wanted is held by me! I REALLY don't feel like spamming the hell out of this thread, don't force my hand!
You know, if you want to annoy Vineyard you could always change his colour on the maps to something else on a regular basis, say, every 5 days? :)
But seriously not liking someone is no reason to not update the map, not only does it not annoy the person you recognise (except in Vineyard's case) but it confuses everyone else.
P.S: Why can't i have that smily on the smilies thing?

To clear stuff up, Norleans was invading Iowa then Lachenberg claimed it. Norleans decided to sign a treaty with Lachenberg to grant Lachenberg Iowa (this is ongoing right now, and I may be involved).
Then while / after this treaty, me and Norleans will attack the Dakotas, as had been agreed between the two of us over TG and secret IC in the Earth V Incidents thread.

OOC:
Mauiwowee and Warta Endor are invading Northern Indonesia and when it is all done, the entire island of New Guinea will belong to WE and the rest of Borneo and the islands will belong to Mauiwowee (with a few small island exceptions), they've agreed to split it up that way.
Mauiwowee is invading South East China all by itself, using Hong Kong as a staging area.
Mauiwowee is also assisting JeetKuneDo take the Phillipines (which will all belong to JeetKundeDo in the end).

Not to nit-pick, (you've been doing a great job), but 3 things, On the Europe map, I would like it if it at leaset acknowledged the Azores. On the North American map you still need to show I have Bermuda (the little dot to the east), and you haven't shown that Jonothana has the Canary Islands. (The Islands between my 2)

I've fixed Bermuda and the Canary Islands (and putted Yefor 2 on the Africa map), but I haven't added the Azores as they are far outside of the map. I'll have to think of how to add those. I remember that TGSR has som islands outside the maps as well...

OOC:
This is a TG I just sent TGSR regarding new rules I think should be put in place:
TGSR,
I have a bit of a radical proposal for a change in the rules of Earth V. The current system allows players to use their nation's statistics as according to the NSEconomy Calculator at thirdgeek.com. However, this is not a realistic representation of a real-life nation. When I began, I only ruled over Belarus, Ukraine, and Estonia. When I extended my regime over the land that it now occupies, my economy as well as my population should have greatly increased. However, since such statistics are generated seperately of our Earth V RP, I have an idea for more fair and more realistic gameplay. Keep in mind that if this change is enforced, war will make much more sense, as there will be a motivation for owning land.
I propose that the population and GDP of a nation be strictly governed by the RL statistics of a nation's holdings in Earth V. I currently own Russia, Belarus, Moldova, the Ukraine, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Armenia, Kazakhstan, and soon Mongolia. Under this new rule, I would calculate my power based on the combined GDP and population of these Real life nations, perhaps doubled to account for the fact that Earth V seems to take place in the near future.
This would stop the unlikely event of a nation such as Procco having over a billion people, or any nation (such as myself) having a 35 million man army.
If this rule is put into effect, all nations will become severly less powerful. However, you must remember that this is all relative! So, instead of two nations sending five million troops to battle each other all at once, they would send the much more realistic 500,000 each. (Of course, in the case of a world war 5 million would be realistic to account for a draft).
I can easily write a program that will automatically calculate the summed GDP and population of a nation. I could even modify the existing NSEconomy code. Please consider this change, as I believe it will make Earth V a much better and more realistic RP. As proof, consider this:
1. When a nation conquers another, its inhabitants are integrated into society, they don't all vanish. If a nation is conquered in Earth V, (such as China) the victorious nation should get something other than land (ie. people for military and natural resources for economy).
2. The economy in Earth V doesn't fluctuate at all. When Vineyard cuts off all oil from the Middle East, some countries are going to have recessions!
3. Nations join Earth V and a billion people appear out of nowhere. I believe (although I haven't checked) that Earth V is home to over 20 billion imaginary inhabitants. A planet such as ours cannot support this many humans.
All you have to do is add together the GDP and population of all the nations you own, and multiply the results by 1.6. As I stated earlier, I can write a program to do this automatically in the future.
Here are the list of rules I would like to be added:
1. All nations must create a population and GDP equal to that of the sum of the populations and GDPs of the RL nations they own, + 60% to account for growth. These numbers are to be used for military and economic statistics. The GDP and Population of all RL nations can be found in the CIA World Factbook at http://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/index.html
2. If a nation like China is divided up into smaller territories in Earth V, divide by the number of territories you own. For example, Arenumberg has two out of four pieces of China, so his population is equal to half of China's, plus 60%. IE, this number is 1,662,524,958. This is bigger than RL China's population, but REMEMBER! Earth V takes place in the near future.
3. Since US states and Canadian provinces count as nations in Earth V, they are to be treated as such. Simply look on google for the GDP of New York, you'll find it.
4. If a player takes a territory from another, both must adjust their figures accordingly.

No.
That's a completely different Game now.
Don't even touch that.
If you wish to use this, go off onto another Server, another Site, and create your own Game. This voids a small portion of NS. That is completely ridiculous. Create your own Game if you wish to use that.
I abhor the suggestion. Using the GDP and Stats of a Nation that already exists is contradictory to what NS actually is, it actually being a marketing devie to sell JG, but still contradictory to the Game.
Not that it's bad or anything, nothing personal. Just bussiness.

Nationstates the way we play it is not the game at all. Nationstates is about deciding political issues and seeing how they effect the nation's political stance. Earth V is not nationstates, and the only reason it takes place in the nationstates forum is because we are in a community that is interested in running a country.
The Earth V RP is not nationstates in any way, and I'm sure we could completely dissociate ourselfs with it, but for the fact that it would be difficult to attract new members. Nationstates is not a realistic representation of a nation. The ONLY THING we use NationStates for is a forum, population, and budget. Everyone knows that population is nothing but how long you've been on NS, and your GDP can EASILY be increased by voting for purely capitalist NS Issues. You could be an uber-capitalist on NS, but then come to Earth V and use those stats to be a communist. My rules are fair and make for realistic gameplay.
Without such rules as these, there cannot be order. Imagine what would happen if the whole world was joined in one alliance. The game would break down, no-one would play because there would be no wars. However, under my new rules, if you invaded someone to get a valuable resource, they would lose power and you would gain power instead of these variables being determined by arbitrary numbers.
I have another nation with about 1.5 billion population and an enormous GDP. I could easily have it ressurected by the mods and give it to someone. That person could then join Earth V and be just as powerful as myself or Sharina. Obviously, this is unfair and unbalanced.
With my new rules, you must RP economic growth and own the resources to make such growth possible. You cannot have ridiculously large amounts of people living in small areas. For example, look how crowded RL Japan is. Lithuania is SEVEN TIMES SMALLER, yet when Procco first joined he fit TEN TIMES THE POPULATION OF JAPAN in Lithuania! Imagine how many people you can see just by standing outside in Tokyo or another heavily populated city. Now imagine SEVENTY PEOPLE FOR EACH ONE! That is the population density of Procco! Not only that, but his economy could NEVER be achieved in Lithuania!
These new rules are not that different and make for REALISTIC and FAIR gameplay. We can't have twenty superpowers in the world. If your nation loses 90% of its power, then you can see what a ridiculous game we were playing.

I just realised that there has been an error on the European map. Vineyard does not control Montenegro, which is unclaimed.
He never had a common border with Albania... Hmm... OK, well, a correct map is uploaded now anyway.
Kopparbergs, I'm in the process of annexing Sasketchwan fully. It will be annexed within two more Canada War posts, most likely.
Just giving you an heads up.
Also, I'm sending my navy to attack Jamaica, to stop Vineyard from building more ships and nip any potential problem in North America in the bud.
Attacks on Cuba remain a possibility, but Jamaica has to fall first.

I have updated the map of Africa with the invasions of Doomingsland, USSNA and RevertRomance. If someone else (i.e. Whittier- or Vineyard) wants their invasions to be marked on the map, please tell me wich countries are invaded, and by who.

---Zagreb News--- HEADLINE: Montenegro invaded!: Montenegrans woke up this morning and followed their every-day reutine. Make eggs, read the paper, eat eggs, drink coffee, and watch the morning news for recent events. But what shocked them this-morning was that they turned on their TV to find Croatian soldiers parading around the body of their former ruler In their Capital city. The Croatian Dictator said the following;"Early this morning, 400,000 troops were parachuted into Montenegro and captured this tiny nation in a matter of minuets, assasinating their president." said Dictator Ryan Vineyard in an early morning conference. "the people of Montenegro can now consider themselves liberated and under my protection." he added.
I don't know whats going on, but it appears that TGSR is starting to mess with me. He puts a new player in Yemen while i am invading it, he puts some "Gameskater" loser that has never posted in his life in Hersogovnia (which i owned) and now he takes Montenegro from me!!!!!

Moon bases? Hypersonic bombers?
TGSR has said that there will be no FT involved in Earth V.
If TGSR allows the moon base and hypersonic bombers, I will introduce my own FT to counter these. Namely a space station with weapons, dozens of attack satellites, laser / microwave beam anti-aircraft point-defense, and hypersonic missiles. ;)

Neither is Future Tech.
I concede my arguement. I was a little iffy because of Wirraway and Doomingsland threatening to use FT style secret tech in the upcoming Earth V World War.
Kopparbergs, I would like formal recongition of four new territories, and coloration of these territories to match.
Territory #1:
Ecaudor.
You sold me Ecaudor, and we have proof.
Territory #2:
Sasketchwan.
Full annexation post will be done tonight or tomorrow morning. For all intents and purposes, Sasketchwan is mine.
Territory #3 and #4:
Alberta and Northwest Territories.
Kormanthor sold me these territories for $6 trillion dollars.

Thus, my era of imperialism is now at an end in North America. Operations will continue in the Caribbean however. Once I get a couple of Caribbean islands, then I'll be done expanding in Earth V for a long time (not counting the imminent World War)

Kopparbergs has been deleted for quite some time now. Thus, there's no chance for maps to be updated in this thread.
In addition, we're still hoping for a map thread where maps can be updated several times a month to reflect new claims or invasions. I'm not sure if we already have a new map thread or not, as I haven't seen it or have any links to it (if there is one).
