Wow that was the 500th response in less than 1 month! Damn!!!!

Pernica, Population 511million

Requesting Oregon and Washington.

I noticed you are also in Earth III. Make up your mind, II or III. Read the rules on the very first page for an explanation.

Layarteb, I've decided I'm going to give up my California claims anyway and stay with my corridor going from Phoenix to Las Vegas. I'd also like to make a claim for Portland.

Here's my IC introductorily thread:

Orange County Evacuated, Republic Declared (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?p=7635640#post7635640)

Not sure if you need it or not.

Layarteb, I've decided I'm going to give up my California claims anyway and stay with my corridor going from Phoenix to Las Vegas. I'd also like to make a claim for Portland.

Okay so it's just Phoenix to Las Vegas, none of the other stuff to the east? Additionally, Portland is in Oregon, which has been claimed but if the person wants to be in Earth III he won't be in Earth II so he'll be out of it and Oregon and Washington will be open.

FT: Okay but what'd Colodia say?

I noticed you are also in Earth III. Make up your mind, II or III. Read the rules on the very first page for an explanation.

I'll renounce claims in Earth III, Earth II definently has more going for it.

edit: Not to be greedy or anything but could I get Alaska, or at least a nice Southern part of it. Washington and Oregon isn't a ton of space to stuff half a billion people. It's only a little over 160,000 square Miles and Alaska is about 590,000 square miles so that's not an unreasonable request... is it?. :headbang:

FT: Okay but what'd Colodia say?

I am making no claims to any of his lands in that thread, merely suggesting that my leadership is fleeing from them. He already agreed I get the Channel Islands and Baja, so there should be no conflict.

Correct. Nothing to the east.

Well, I thought that since the person hadn't made up their minds Portland would still be open...nevertheless, scratch that claim and make one for Mazatlan, a city on the Pacific coast of Mexico that is roughly on a line from the tip of Baja California.

(Actually, if I could have the whole of Sinaola (22,429 sq. mi.), but if I'm over my limit then just Mazatlan).

Pernica: Alaska is yours and cool you have all those territories since you will renounce Earth III.

RomeW: Well you are out of Portland. You want just the city? Is it part of Baja California or Baja California Sur because those are both in the claims bin.

Mazatlan is not in Baja California...it's in the province of Sinaloa. The city is a port on the Pacific Ocean and it's east of the tip of Baja California. This map may help where it is:

Mazatlán okay. Looking for the land area now.

Hey me and Nerotika are verry good friends, and he was wondering what the hell was going on with Mexico.

I dunno if he is home yet, so I am posting for him.

He claimed Mexico and we both saw a post that the claim was accepted, but problem is....it doesn't say he has Mexico yet. Could you clear the confusion please.

According to this, it's just 22,429 sq. mi.:

I sent him a TG IIRC that said Mexico as is is too big for him to claim (close to 700k square miles) and his pop limits him to under 500,000.

EDIT- South of my current claims.

Don't know, it's hard to tell.

I'll just keep what I have then.

Layarteb: I meant to say I didn't want anything west of Las Vegas (I confuse my east and my west easily). I wanted to keep the strip from Phoenix to El Paso and have my strip extend to Las Vegas (3593 sq. mi.- 718 mi. from El Paso to Las Vegas with a five-mile wide path).

Alright. In 14,955.63 square miles you reach 2.0m.

Thanks.

Thanks.

OT but that picture is amusing. Jesusland, lol. I'm in New York and I must object though. See, within 20 years, everything is going to be the United States of New York, capital NYC.

I've kept it since I'm Canadian and I just like the fact that it includes California as part of Canadian territory. With winter coming up, that's any Canadian's dream.

I also think it's a powerful statement on what the U.S. is becoming, but I do think it's a tad too sensational.

Layarteb, what would you say to myself creating a list of countries that haven't been claimed and putting it between the map and the list of already claimed nations? It would make the business of claiming a lot easier and CTRL+F doesn't really work most of the time (I tried doing that with the Czech Republic and it didn't find it, despite the fact it was on the list and claimed by Euroslavia).

Sadly, as much as Jesusland is the majority, the country is becoming more leftist. Given the Republican majority in Congress and the Judiciary and the States and the Executive, you just have to look at the legislations past recently to see (banning of the pledge of allegiance in 9 US states), etc.

Go ahead. yeah I must have missed that one on ES so I'll fix it now.

True...although with George W. Bush in power it doesn't look that bright.

May I claim the Mexican province of Sonora as well as the remainder of Arizona south of RomeW's corridor? I'll be getting numbers up in a second.

Sonora is 70,484 square miles. Working out how big the Arizona zone is...

EDIT: I say the southern zone is about 3/5s of the entire state, or 68,403.6 miles. Hope I can afford that...

I'd say that it's 1/3 of Arizona's territory, but I could be wrong.

Alright, assuming my new claims (with my numbers) are approved, I'll have a total of 194923.11 miles. This will differ slightly from your account Layatreb, because you left out Santa Catalina and one other island in your tally of the Channel Islands (sorry about that, they technically aren't part of the same chain but I included them all the same).

Actually, looking at it again it's more like 1/4...it's not a big area.

Actually, looking at it again it's more like 1/4...it's not a big area.

Arizona? The state to the right of Southern California with your corridor running diagonally through it to terminate in southern Nevada? Thats a pretty big chunk of the state I want.

(banning of the pledge of allegiance in 9 US states), etc.

really? which ones?

Well, using rough estimates from MapQuest's directions, this is what I get:

Square Miles

(Las Vegas-Tucson (roughly a triangle) to Arizona border):

400sqmi x 200 sqmi = 80,000sqmi/2= 40,000sqmi

(Tucson-New Mexicon border to Tucson to Arizona border (roughly a rectangle)):

65sqmi x 130 sqmi = 8450 sqmi

40,000 sqmi + 8450 sqmi = 48450 sqmi

For how long has RomeW had West Iraq? Surely he can't claim it while i'm in the middle of an invasion without him RPing it... and also it's not shown on the maps.

His population is greater then mine and my two countrys land masses equals that of Mexicos, if not...more then Mexicos. He really wants to join, but Layatarb says accepted, then someone who isn't in charge of claims says he can't have it. Umm....wtf?

Anyway, has my claim over Nayarit been accepted? It's directly south of Sinaloa and is only 10,465 square miles. (Source (http://www.visitmexicopress.com/destinations_state.asp?destID=35&dest_state=Nayarit))

Yeah check the maps and the claims.

Thanks.

ATTENTION

Okay, someone mentioned this (I believe it was Hogsweat) a few days ago. The topic was of a dedicated Earth II United Nations that ran itself and acted in itself separate from the main Nation-States Earth II. It certainly wouldn't be anything like it but rather a role-playing unit. It would get its own forum on our Invision Free account. So I want to know what you gentlemen think about this idea?

I do not have the resources or the time to run this as honestly running the thread itself takes up a lot of time. It would have to be an active member of Earth II and it would be run like the real United Nations, with one problem. I own New York and I am not a pro-UN guy and I am not going to be joining it so you'll need to find a new HQ for it.

The basic premise is that nations of Earth II could join it andit would be run like the real United Nations. Okay so now onto the idea. Please go to the URL below and vote in the poll.

That would be correct (EDIT- More or less. Obviously the Roman ruins would be rebuilt, but it's more or less the same city as in RL). Plus I'd figure that if the Roman Empire survived for so long (as my nation *is* the Roman Empire) it'd become some sort advisory figure in the world (hey, a nation that survives 2000+ years is one worth listening to), thus making it the perfect place for the UN.

Perhaps once you get a contingency you can put it to a vote, provide certain cities and have a vote to see where it goes? Democracy in the first and most fundamental step. As long as it isn't in New York though, I personally don't care. The UN HQ has been transformed into a governmental building (in Layarteb). After all, Layarteb City is NYC.

Well, Rome is being offered as a place for the UN HQ. Any other cities interested will have to bring themselves forward.

(Or perhaps we could have a rotating HQ...one year it's in Rome, another it's in San Francisco, etc.)

Well, this Earth II is different than the RL Earth, so Tokyo may not be the city we think it is. Though it's an idea.

Tokyo's still an ultra-modern techno-wonderland; it's just that Emperor Yamikuma (the leader of Earth II Marimaia) has more power than the RL Emperor. There's still democracy, but there's also a stronger secret police and it's slightly more paternalistic. Also, this Japan still has an empire, albeit one which has better civil rights than the RL version.

The Earth II UN would be more than welcome to situate the Asian branch in Tokyo.

I dont wish to own Kuwait if it is simply going to become a sattelite state of your Socialist Union. Being a capitalist can I just claim North Carolina? My meagre population will still cover that. Plllleaseeeee confirm this. Many thanks.

Commnista

Yes, I mentioned that U.N thing to you on AIM.

I vote for the U.N Asian Branch to be in Kuala Lumpur because;
I thought of the idea [:P]
The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics was an important player in the RL UN, since it made an opposition to the Western UN. We could make this same opposition.. some interesting arguments could crop up. Especially if its based in Kuala Lumpur. It's also a pretty exotic location... something more than Tokyo.

Oh yeah, and I made a forum for it :P

Right, so North Carolina is too confusing. Damn. Can I just take Colorado, North East Egypt(that unclaimed bit on the map at the top right of Egypt) and Gabon (Gabon is of almost negligible size in Africa) then? Im thinking a base in the Rocky Mountains, exxxcelent. Could anyone please confirm this? I think my population can cover these three tiny provinces.

Many Thanks

Commnista

Basically I thought it could run like this;
There are sections for each part of the world;
North America
South America
Europe
Asia
Asia Minor
Africa

Each one has a delegate. The delegate is selected by a vote.. you can run a vote on those forums. Only people located in the area can vote. You must state when you vote so we know the voting is fair. The delegate selected chooses a city for the HQ for that region. The delegate is also put on the UN Security Council representing that area. The voting polls must be constant so it can change.

How does that sound?

It's good. :) I've joined.

Nice.

You've forgotten Australia and Oceania. Also, I think "Asia Minor" should instead be "Middle East"...if Asia Minor had a delegate, they'd just have one nation (Zeronia).

Yeah, I forgot Australasia/Oceania. Mhm yes, Asia Minor = The Middle East. Also, how about we have Russia seperate from Europe. Layarteb has said that me and you are supposed to be the U.N mods for the site.

Also, how about we have Russia seperate from Europe.

That works. Or we could place the oblasts in the region where they're supposed to be (i.e. everything west of the Urals is in Europe, everything else is in Asia)

Yes. Claiming a state you get its land and what water it controls, in addition to countries. GL with the highway.

so you count the water into the square miles? If so would I still be able to get Utah and that island with resolute on it?

okay then I guess I'll drop the island and cut just a small sliver of Utah off that would put me over.

We do not wish ill against your nation. However your occupation of the Aguascalientes Province of Mexico is obviously an irritation to us as it would be to you if the positions were reversed. We do not wish violence against you but we will not hesitate to use it if your occupation continues. As you can see, the province is surrounded by our Mexican possesions and it is an insult to our pride that the Aguascalientes Province is not ours. We truly do not wish violence against your proud nation, and in return for the province we will become your allies, protect your interests in Qatar, open trade with you, and defend your other claims that you have abroad. I will state again though, that if our demands for the handover to us of the Aguascalientes Province are not met, then we will use overwhelming force to eject you from it. Please think on our generous offer.

OOC: Sorry, that's been taken by Tyrandis.

Ok, I'll try again. I've checked with CTRL+F in the first page, so if anyone claim to have claimed the territory I'm claiming now, go hang yourselves!

IC: The Cottish naval task force under Admiral Hamza Garoosh have landed on Micronesia, examined the islands, and after finding no government, claimed all islands in Micronesia for Cotland.

Cotland also want to claim Franz Josef Land (Northern Russia islands, right next to Svalbard), Novaya Zemlya (It'll be a perfect place to go fishing and freeze the meat... :p) and Kaliningrad (once you're finished with it, Layarteb, naturally).

So ye want

Micronesia
Franz Josef Land
Novaya Zemlya
Kaliningrad*

I put a star on that last one because you should check The Kingdom of Forgotten Warriors RP.

Well Cullenus has been deleted because of inactivity. Therefore Florida and a part of Antarctica are now available.

Note: Belarus is now owned by North Germania.

congrats :cool:

Well since Florida is up, I'd like to claim it. That should keep me well under my total...I would think.

So ye want

Micronesia
Franz Josef Land
Novaya Zemlya
Kaliningrad*

Yeah, I know. I meant that I'd like it after you were finished vith it. So... does this mean that the other claims have been granted?

Colodia: Florida is yours.

Cotland: Micronesia (I could have swore someone claimed it but I find no record of it so it is yours), Novaya Zemlya, and Franz Josef Land are yours now. Kaliningrad will be under "fire" for a long time to come now.

No problems. If you want some help in Kaliningrad, just give the word, and I'll send a few brigades.

Trust me, you don't want forces in Kaliningrad. If you think the situation in RL-Iraq is bad Kaliningrad makes that look like a peacekeeping operation.

OK. At least let me place my satellites at your disposal

LOL I got one up there already plus RQ-1 Predators. The thing is the insurgency isn't much that can be monitored from high above.

*sighs* Very well. At least I've offered support. Can I at least place a carrier group in the Baltic? That way I get to partisipate and improve my RP skills.

You can put one there but I doubt the nations around will be too happy about that and secondly I'm not going to allow you to fly over Kaliningrad in any support. It's an internal affair (hence insurgency) and we have it fully under control.

We now send a final warning to The Knights Templars, we have telegrammed you and posted on this forum about you releasing the Aguscalientes Province of Mexico to us, now if a reply is not given in 1(RL) day you can consider our two nations at war.

Deepest Regards,
The Principality of Gintonpar

OOC: We know you have been active as well because in your nation profile it says you were, anyway, theres still time to actually reply to my telegram if you want a peaceful solution to the conflict.

:: I sense another RP Brewing ::

Cotland, I may need help in subduing The Knights Templars elsewhere in the world if you wish to assist. Our troops fought well together in the Belarusian war and I respect you as a nation. We can deal with The Knights Templars in the Aguscalientes province, but as we do not know their other dispositions on Earth II we would be grateful for any help we recieve against them whereever they decide to pop up. We should be allies Cotland, I extend the hand of friendship to your nation.

Quite possibly, although Aguscalientes Province is tiny, it is a thorn in our side as it is in the middle of our Mexican provinces. We do not require or ask for any military assistance in that area, but if The Knights Templars choose the path of violence elsewhere in the World, and refuse the friendship that we are offering them and have offered them in the past, then conflict would be the only way to remove them from the Aguscalientes Province, which is ours by right as it is within our Mexican lands. Just to make it clear to The Knights Templars, I desperately want a peaceful solution to this issue, but if you choose to either ignore me, or choose the path of war, then war is what you shall have.

Ok, ok I'll let you handle this on your own. But if you need or want help, don't hesitate to ask.

Also, can I claim north-eastern Egypt? It's unclaimed, and it's a shame that it remains so colorless :p

Finally, can you tell me how much territory (square miles) I have please?

We will be happy to assist.

I've done a little research, and the Knights Templar hold the Aguascalientes province and Qatar. I'll send a few subs to the Persian Gulf to keep watch.

Your assistance is appreciated and is most kind. There is unlilkely to be much military action because of the small size of The Knights Templars territories and the fact that the Aguscalientes province is so far from any help from Qatar. Be sure that we will back you to the hilt on any problems you have after your backing has been granted for this province of mine.

OOC: If you check the Belarus rebuilding post on the forums http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=381357, you will see that I have proposed a non-aggression pact between Gintonpar, North Germania, Cotland and Layarteb. All of you check that out and reply on that thread if you are interested.
