most likely going to be when i get back, so romew or layarteb, if you read
this, if everyone does this by 25 July, Can one of you do that for me, it will
prob take a few days.

Holy Republic of Hawdawg

Population: 1.5+ billion

Alliances: Roman Confederacy

Why: Economics, and location of my orginal state. The Roman Confederacy has done wonders for my economy, helped build a interstate system in Libya, etc.


I was a member of the NAANP (Celtayoshi group) but I withdrew after selling my lands in North America. I maintain embassies and trade ties with all the NAANP countries.

I maintain no other alliances, but I offer assistance from time to time to other nations that have assisted me in the past with defensive issues.

-Hawdawg

The Empire of Cotland

Population size: 1,3 something billion

Alliances: Roman Confederacy, NAANP, other

Why:

RC Because of the economic benefits, and being in an alliance with some of my closest allies. Attachment: 5

NAANP Because of the friendship I have with the other members of the upper council, and for having friends to call on if my lands are attacked. Attachment: 9

Other Independent alliance with NG, a close trade and mutual defense agreement. Attachment: 9

I also have a lot of embassies around the world, but have certain targets in my scope, although those are long-term plans...


Why do I have to list this?

The Hellenistic Empire of Nikolaos The Great

Population size: 3 billion

Alliances: Roman Confederacy

Why: My whole nation is in the Mediterannean Sea. So I joined it.

Attachment: 5

Other: An independent close alliance with The Island of Rose. Probably my only closest ally in E2.

Thank you for the first ones, the reason, cotland, is that the alliances are so tangeled, what i will try to do is create a master list of all alliances, and list the people in them from most wanting to be part of, to less wanting. After that, i will try to untangle some people, that way you wont feel torn when your two alliances fight. In laymans terms, i will be redoing the alliances, then i will present them to you guys and you tell me if you like the way it looks.

The Imperial Union of The Island of Rose

Pop size: 2.4 Billion

Alliances: NATO

Why?: Just 'cause

Other: NtG and RomeW, I like them >_>

The Nine Sultanates of Elephantum-Pop 1,083,000,000

Alliances-Roman Confederacy (3)
Why-Because I used to own Sicily, but I gave it to TLS

Alliance-Middle East Stability Coalition (10)
Why-I founded it!

Other Allies-Cotland, TLS, are biggest allies

The Carthaginian Techno-Caliphate of The Lightning Star


Why im there:

The Roman Confederacy: Because I'm Carthage. And I practically own the passage from the east to the west of the Mediterrnanean.

The MESC: Because I own a ginormous portion of Saudi Arabia as well as Syria.
My country has this amount of people:2.205 billion
How attached i am to this alliance (1-10):
RC: 9

MESC: 9
Why to the previous question:

RC: I put 9 because even though we will most likely fight to the death for the Confederacy, we are not willing to do something that will screw up our populace.

MESC: Pretty much the same as why we put 9 for the RC.

I'll add this to the main OOC discussion list

Empire of Layarteb
Pop: 3.5bn
Alliances: NAANP, TOA

I am in the NAANP as a collective security agreement.
Attachment: 8

I am in The October Alliance because it's a solid alliance between some powerful nations that are truely good people.
Attachment: 10

Good reltationships: Cotland, RomeW, others I think...

Duke Barol, allow me to say that "untangling" the alliance structures with a simple list like this is hopelessly idealistic and extremely unrealistic, if not impossible. I admire your intentions, but ICly that is not the way things will work. You just don't "give up" on allies at the snap of a finger, plus ICly alliances won't just "break up" because one nation says so.

What I said in the main discussion thread is that we need to a) figure out ICly why we're in all these alliances, b) see what it is these alliances will serve for each of us individually and c) figure out and understand the role the alliance(s) shall play globally. In other words, we need to focus our RP's on our alliances and figure out how we can use them (because there's A LOT of potential there- certainly we're not all going to get along, right?) instead of just simply discarding them.

Roman Confederacy

NAANP

You are aware that the NAANP is really only a defensive/security alliance, so generally we don't do very much cause we don't often get invaded?

rw:so should i not bother?
everyone else: should i not bother as he said?

No, not really... This thread doesn't really have a point. It was a good try though. A cookie for that.

:: throws cookie to DB ::

::cookie hits in forhead, causing huge cut and concussion::
ok if you say so.

i apoligize for waisting all of your time.

*Presses gauze pad to duke*

It was a decent try.
