Ministry of State

The Vetalian government would be interested in any information regarding the supply of raw materials on the island. In addition, we would be interested in the quality of the island's coastline for the construction of ports, as this island would serve as an ideal stopover point along our new trade routes in the more northernly parts of the planet.

Lying in the Northwest Subarctic Sea, Asåvik Island is part of the Avålora Colony.

The Kiravian Empire has decided to allow non-Kiravian settlers to cohabit the island, in order to creat a multinational demographic unique in the Empire.
The island is tax-free, and the Imperial government will not impose tribute demand from foreigners on Asåvik. All foriegners will be offered 5th level dual citizenship in the Kiravian EMpire.

The island has medium-quantity supplies of iron, tin, aluminum, selenium, and palladium. There have already been quarrie sset up for clay, shale, and mineral sands. Paper-grade coniferous woodlands cover the island but most are portected from forestry. As you can see, there are multiple natural harbours on the island that are ideal for port facilities. We suggest the low-lying shore on East Bay.

The Kuronan and Alfegosian colonies are accepted. May we please have the intended names of the towns?

We warn the atheist Alfegosians that they may face social pressure from the Evangelical community near Taigashore.

The Alfegosians will set up a small township named " Neo'delgi", which means "New Haven"

To the government of Asåvik Island

The Communist Dominion of Stoklomolvi would like to send 1,000 settlers to Asåvik Island to settle the area of land north-east of Taigashore in the peninsula. All settlers sent are atheist, and are Russian-Chinese. The reason Stoklomolvi wishes to send these settlers is to improve foreign relations with the Kiravian Empire, as well as to probe the area for resources, and, if any are discovered, share 40% with Kirav. The settlement is to be named New Vladistov, and will not conflict with Alfegos.

OOC: Thanks, i saw these colony threads and there were many ones where you claim areas and you were done

The Vantanian and Skamanian colonies are accepted.

Kirav, do you know any place on the map that you recommend for my colonists to settle? I think I might want to change my colony's location.

OOC: Oops, forgot the location part. If you could put me on the end of that empty peninsula just north of Taigashore, that'd be great.

Shall I start you a new thread for the RP?

The best location depends on what you wnat your colonists to do. If you're forming a shpping outpost and industrial centre like Vetalia, then you'd be better off on the coast. Religious colonies would be better off inland. If you're just a bunch headed for tax-free status, then you just go wherever.

I think you're in a good location to trade with the nearby settlements, but you can still request a change when I post the map.

Request granted, VOntanas.

If I am in a good location to trade with other colonies, I'd like that.

The goverment of the USSA wish to send 500 scientists to explore the compostion of the island, and 500 miners to mine said materials.

Map Update:

http://i232.photobucket.com/albums/ee194/Glyphick47/AsvikIslandMapupdate.png

Size of the symbol and font has no significance. It's just for convenience. Except with SNowspruce. THe underline denotes it as the capital.

While Stoklomolvi is happy that the settlement has been granted, it wished for the settlement to be established on the peninsula, not on the mainland.

[OOC: The peninsula meaning near Petropavlovsk.]

OOC:Damn time warpz!

GO ahead with the new thread, Alfegos.

I am thinking New Brittonia's colony may be my colony's foremost trade partner, since they are quite close on the map.

OOC: Yes, there will be an rp.

When will it start?

Stomoklovi, your settlement will be moved.

Fixed Map;

THe rp will start when Alfegos makes the thread.

The RP will be about us basically developing our colonies, right?

Started

Yes, and about trade between them etc. Maybe there'll be a raid on the coast, a few festivals, just a general, non-intense, enjoyable rp.

That sounds interesting, I hope we have a good RP.

Excellent job, Alfegos.

The rp thread is open now, y'all.

You can still open a colony if you'd like. We have much more space available.

Can I change my colony's name to New Bordeaux?

Oui, Monsieur. Il est au inconvenience non.

Interesting. Mine is based off of Teutonic-Celtic culture, particularly the latter. Even so, lots of it is purely my imagination, and there's also concepts from Rome and China in it as well.

We would like to develop a settlement on Asavik Island

Why are there two Colchis's? FYI, mine is the one between Neo'delgi and New Vladistov.

Kirav, do your officials visit all the colonies in two days?

I have many officials. Many Kiravians work part-time jobs in the government. So yes, most of the colonies will be visited in 2 days. after their founding.

The Greal colony is accepted.

The ROgue Protoss colony is accepted.

The Colchis on the West Coast is a Kiravian settlement named after your colony.(In OOC it's a randome mistake).

Okay, having a city named after my colony is okay, even though Colchis isn't an original name. It was at the edge of the world in Greek Mythology and Jason went there with the Argonauts to recover the Golden Fleece. I think it was somewhere on the Black Sea.

Really? Interesting. I've always been interested in the geopolitical knowledge of the ancient Mediterranean world that one can glean from mythology.

Can we establish new cities, etc?

Other than your colonial settlement, you cannot establish permanent settlements elsewhere, save for temporary one like mining camps.

Where can you build mining camps, etc?

In any area that is open for mining, except for protected and semi-protected forests. Or land near Danrev Kiravian settlements. They're likely to get pissed and kill someone if they get pushed around by foriegners much more.

Can you recommend a good area for my colony to open mines, preferably one not near the Danrev settlements?

Thank you for the information. I think I might have to build roads to connect my mines to the colony.

New Horizon and the Habana Cuba settlement are accepted. We regrest to inform the Habanans that we don't have any beaches, most of the shoreline is rock or gravel. Besides, the subarctic climate does not make for good swimming.

S&D, it is not neccessary to build more roads. The Kiravian settlers have already built routes on the Eastern part of the island.

Thanks for the information, Kirav. By the way, I have already had some mines built for my colony.
