Note: Corbournne, I assumed a few things about you - if you have a different history (which you probably do) on how Portugal came into being, we can talk about it there and change around a few things. If you want (hint, hint) we can put in things about hints of alliance, and "nice feelings" towards each other, seeing as how we are so close. Or, if you choose not be a close ally/friend of me, something else. Again, it's up to you and me.

Everyone else, post up those histories! ;)

That's fine, I had me conquering it at a different time, but its cool the way it is.

Now, I'm going to put stuff in my history (that I'm going to post on the thread) about me invading the Netherlands to try to come around and conquer Belgium, so there'd be a war, and we'd both have thousands of troops meaninglessly slaughtered. :p

I also plan on putting in a few other wars with you, because of our proximity. Perhaps a good old Futuran (British) Corbournnian (French) rivalry. Though, my national government came to power because of World War II, so if that happened, we'd probably be friends now.

Otherwise, I could just say I had a nationalist revolution and you could choose your stance toward me.

(And SSU, Canadstein, I think you can both join, just wait for AB's approval.)

Make a factbook. You can check the first page of this thread for examples of factbooks. Basically, include history, demographics, economics, geograhical and climactic info, government, and military.

Be sure of three things, though: you MUST maintain the combined GDP, Total Population, and Land Area of the nations you selected (Argentina, Falklands, and Uruguay in your case). Those are the guidelines for this Earth-you can find them on Wikipedia by searching Argentina, etc.

Good question, but not one easily answered!

It costs, of course, a Hell of a lot less to maintain a Turkish soldier than an American one, and if you turn your North Korean tank's engine over once a year or something it won't cost half as much to maintain as an otherwise similar Iraqi tank chasing around the desert during the war with Iran.

I think that different nations and administrations record things differently, too. The US published defence budget doesn't even consider the production and support of nuclear warheads, for example, so I'm sure different countries take different positions on whether a sailor's pay is included in the upkeep costs of the ship she or he serves aboard.

I'd guess generally that several percent of a warship's acquisition cost is needed every year to keep it operational. Tens of millions for that aircraft carrier, I'd think?

I've been wondering about weapons, too.

I'd imagine Bulgia using ex-Soviet weaponry, but I don't know if the nation covering most of the USSR ever established a Mikoyan-Gurevich enterprise... there may never have been a Mikoyan, so maybe there aren't any MIGs?

I don't think that it would be realistic for people to just dash around giving their nations weaponry originating in others without establishing IC how they would have got their hands on it and why, really.

At the moment I think that Bulgia will develop a small domestic defence industry, but mostly we'll just be building things like, say, an AB-54 assault rifle that basically is just an AKM with a heavier receiver or something. Now sure what I'll do about the rest!

AB does the map and stuff, and already two people claimed some of the areas around there, but he's been gone. Not everyone can be on NS 24/7.

On maintenance: I looked up on Wiki stuff on the Nimitz, and it says the cost of one is about 4.5 billion, while the average annual operating cost is 160 million, or a little more than 3% of the 4.5 billion. So is it around 3-5% instead?

On maintenance: I looked up on Wiki stuff on the Nimitz, and it says the cost of one is about 4.5 billion, while the average annual operating cost is 160 million, or a little more than 3% of the 4.5 billion. So is it around 3-5% instead?

Seems awfully small.

$160 million is probably 0.1% of the entire Bulgian GDP, so I couldn't scoff at it!

I'm assuming that for the first year, our military portions of the budget must account for the cost of the actual thing and the operational cost, right?

To clarify, a cost of a nimitz class is around 4.5 billion, and operating cost is 160 million (i got it from wiki). So for the first year, to have a nimitz-class carrier, we must take out 4.5 billion + 160 million out of our GDP's. However, in the next year, we only take out 160 million for that nimitz, provided the operating cost stays the same (i.e. it's not injured during a battle). That leaves around 4.5 billion from that first year of paying off the Nimitz to use for whatever in the second year. That includes building new/designing new ships or other things. Am I correct? Because otherwise, if I only had to spend 160 million on a Nimitz from my current navy budget (100 billion), I could have a LOT of ships. Even if such a Nimitz-class was bought in my country several years ago, I still need to account for it here by spending 4.5 billion in the first RP year. That did anything but clarify... :p

Also, how will we go along with RP time? Obviously, during wars and other such occurences, fluid time will be used, but on a general R&D basis, is it one RL day = one EFJ month? So 12 RL days = 1 EFJ year? I think that would work - but it's up to AB to decide.

I read that the Vatican is in your Empire and such would I assume the papcy is within your nation? As a Supreme Catholic state we would in fact take orders from such an entity (To a certain degree) of course there would have to be elections eventually, but if your population is bigger I imagine you could keep the position inside your cardinals.

I know I said that, and I will uphold that, it is just that the way Schroeder sees it, they might as well go and meet some people who can develope into business partners than sit back and watch an alliance form that has no need for the corporation.

The first thing of the meeting will be us asking questions of each others countries, systems, cultures and stances on issues so we are not totally clueless as to who we could possibly be going into a close alliance with.

I know I said that, and I will uphold that, it is just that the way Schroeder sees it, they might as well go and meet some people who can develope into business partners than sit back and watch an alliance form that has no need for the corporation. An economic aggreement can be sorted out by them, though...something Schroeder would like a lot.

I highly doubt that anyone's gonna claim San Marino anyway... :p

Nonetheless, while I agree with Honako that we oughta leave several of those larger nations being invaded to be claimed by others, it's not like we can force all of the current invasions to stop - as Shakal pointed out about, they were started before anyone said anything. Just... consider only taking one or two nations, okay, guys?

Well, yeah, at least if you plan on invaded - I can't stop that - limit it to maybe one or two nations (well, San Marino doesn't matter...) before you go on invaded the whole of the Yugoslavia. I know you started your invasions before I said this, but to be honest I wasn't exactly expected about twelve nations to be the targets of attacks in the first few days.

However, as DPW said, I can't stop you (well, I might be able to with force, but I probably won't).

Not Force...that would make the Pope cry :(

Not Force...that would make the Pope cry :(

My people are anti-Catholic, though some still are, so they would not care what the Pope thinks :p to quote my factbook:

In 1721 the French rulers of the Honakon mainland (RL China) demanded that all people adhere to the Catholic religion. Honakon was a white race then, and gradually becoming more European in there ways; however they disapproved of this relgion. Over ten million people left for the South Eastern states (RL Vietnam, Thailand) were there was British rule, as they enforced no relgion. Due to this, currently following any relgion in Honakon today is strictly frowned upon. They have an open relgion policy, but most chose to worship the King instead as there God like figure. Still, influences from other countries have still made it so around 6.4% of the country is classified as religious, with Catholicism still being the strongest faith with 4.2% of the countries people following that.

Anyway, I'm not sure whether I can be bothered to use force...I wanted to invade a nation myself, but now their is too many nations doing it...
