Long has the continent of Africa lain away, hidden from the rest of the world and her vast resources go untapped for the greater good of the world. But, yet times change and no longer can this continue as the demand of the wealthier and more powerful nations of the world increases so shall the supply has to also grow no matter what the cost. So therefore now the world looks to Africa and all the she has to offer has thus she shall now be made to give her resources to the rest of the world to satisfy the vast demand which could no longer be fed solely by the resources of one nation.


Rules:

No God Modding

Establish a colony and run it according to your own warped political ideals. Care for the native or deliberately oppress them. It's really up to you.

Resources they are in the same places as they are in real life.

To make a claim please RP it and your nation's arrival

As for things like genocide, slavery, forced removals, environmental crap, etc. do as you like as I shall not act as they police men here and I generally do not care, though I cannot say the same for the rest of the people here. Though to note they is no real population census as there has never been done so you can get away with killing a few million if you wish as there will be no proof to how many you really killed open to the outside world.


Claims are up for grabs till I finalize them.

Note: Please make claims reasonable and allow room for other players, Thank you.

The Kiravian Empire claims South Africa and Rhodesia.

Here is a map of our planned Austroafrican Colony:

http://i232.photobucket.com/albums/ee194/Glyphick47/Maps/Kiro-AfricanRhodesia.png
--

The INS Monterey Bay, a colonial transport ship, made ripples of white foam as it cut through the waters towards the Cape of Good Hope. It carried 1,500 Kiravian settlers to begin the colony of Austroafrica. The flotilla behind it carried supplies, machinery, and military units to secure the vast region of Africa that was to become the newest province of the Kiravian Empire.

The Scandinvan Empire claims Rawanda, Tanazia, Burnundi, Uganda, Tananzia Republic of the Congo, Angola, and Nambia.

Out of respect to the Scandinavian Empire, the KE relinquishes its claim to Namibia.

Out of respect to the Scandinavian Empire, the KE relinquishes its claim to Namibia.As our friends in Kirav have shown us proper discourse and respect we shall do the same and rescend our claims on Zambia and Bostwana.

Thank you. Yet, we have no issues regarding leeting the Scandinavian Empire have Botswana as well.

Here is an updated map of Kiravian Austroafrica:

OOC: The Commonwealth of Shansekia claims Sierra Leone, Liberia, Cote d'Ivoire, Burkina Faso, Ghana, and Togo (Most of these are quite small)

IC: The convoy of ships pressed forward. Consisiting only of 3 cruisers, it was mostly a mix of trawlers, cruise ships, and passenger ships. Over 100,000
were being deported to the new colony, where they would be forced to rebuld their lives. All for the name of Shansekia.

The Union of Police Stations (the government of SilentScope003) deplore this colonization of the peaceful region of Africa. Africa has always ruled itself for quite some time, and it is only now that these nations decide to just invade it and establish their 'colonies', obivously to 'opress' them.

It is true that Africans need civilizing. But invasion is not the way.

The only way to save Africa is to unite it together under a new nation: "The United States of Africa". This new nation will unite Africa together, letting it grow and prosper, and protect it from military occupiers. Africa, for Africans!

We declare this new state into existence and will hereby place it under our loving protection. This protection will ensure that the USA will not be conquered by evil, but instead, will be guided by a loving nation, who will respect the right for it to exist!

We are hereby talking with the leaders of Libya, Algeria, Morroco, and Western Saraha, on having them join up as founding members of the USA, uniting their defense policies together for the benieft of all. Anyone seeking to attack or destroy the USA will be met with the full warth of the SilentScope navy and the African population.

Thank you. Yet, we have no issues regarding leeting the Scandinavian Empire have Botswana as well.

Here is an updated map of Kiravian Austroafrica:

http://i232.photobucket.com/albums/ee194/Glyphick47/Maps/Kiro-Africa2.pngIn respect to the newly altered territory of Kiravian Austro-Africa we hereby submit a query if they would like to divide Botswana into two seperate spheres.

The Monterey Bay reached the peninsula that would become Saar-Austroafrica, the first Kiravian settlement, the first step that Kiravian civilization would take into this new land.

The Empire had grand plans for Austroafrica. They would not fall victim to the folly of imperialists that had come before them. Thousands of settlers would pour into the temperate coasts of South Africa, the rich farmlands of Rhodesia, and the coastal rainforests of Mozambique. The natives would be allowed to retain their culture, and, for th emost part their land. But with such large populations, there was no doubt that scores would turn out to fill the needs of industry. Yes, industry. Diamonds, iron, gold, and other rescources were ripe for the picking. Under Kiravian management Austroafrica would become a land of prosperity.

In respect to the newly altered territory of Kiravian Austro-Africa we hereby submit a query if they would like to divide Botswana into two seperate spheres.

That is certainly agreeable, that, or a condominium over the country. What borders do you propose?

OOC: Sorry for the double-post, y'all.

Latislavia, for the betterment of our economy, wishes to lay claims to the lands of the Democratic-Republic and the Republic of the Congo, and Madagascar.

OOC: how do u make the maps of ur claims like the other nations have?

Get a blank map from the Wikimedia Commons, and then fill in the countries that you've claimed with Paint or a similar program.

The sweat pored off of Mr. Nandha's face as he moved through the jungle. Behind him, several dozen similarly armed mercenaries outfitted in camouflage and clutching assault rifles followed. Catching a whiff of petroleum and burning rubber, he signaled for the column to stop. Up ahead, unless he was mistaken was Port Harcourt, a local center of the oil-producing area. Late last night, hundreds of mercenary companies had been dropped near key locations throughout Nigeria. Additionally, the 3rd Expeditionary Fleet was stationed offshore ready to unleash a storm of missiles if called for. Squadrons of F/A 32 Dogmas now patrolled the skies over the area, ready to intercept any air resistance and provide close air support to the ground forces. Little resistance was expected, for after all, the area barely had a functioning government, but the investors thousands of miles away didn't want to spend billions of dollars to see the operation fail.

Signaling for the column to continue, he begin moving, too, all the while thinking of how he would be a rich man after this little operation. Suddenly, there was some movement to his left and after taking about a half a second to remember that there were no other mercenaries from No Taxes in the area, fired a quick burst. At least one of his shots hit the target and a scream was heard. Quickly motioning for Karl and Gunther to go see what it was, Mr. Nandha stood there with the adrenalin just now hitting his body.

"What was it?" he asked when they came back.

"Just some idiot kid."

Mr. Nandha smiled now and soon the column was underway again and as they reached the outskirts of the city, he set his assault rifle to full auto. They had been ordered to avoid unnecessary casualties, but who would notice if a couple went missing?

OOC: No Taxes just claims Nigeria.

Lights flashed and ships slowed down as they prepared to land in the Gulf of Guinea-no, the Gulf of Carilos. They would start slowly, building Carilos City, then spreading out and forcing the natives to either become productive citizens or be deported to the new "United States of Africa" to the north. Eventually, they would industrialize, but they knew rapid industrialization would leave hundreds ignored. No, they would start out with agriculture, then build massive factories and harvest the oil, gold, diamonds, and many precious minerals available.

That is certainly agreeable, that, or a condominium over the country. What borders do you propose?

OOC: Sorry for the double-post, y'all.Here is the border we propose, which includes Scandinvan claims as well, and we also wish to note we no longer claim Gabon.

http://img528.imageshack.us/my.php?image=kiroafrica2be0.png

The Vetakan Dominion would like to claim Madagascar, Egypt or the Ivory Coast. The Vetakan Dominion shall retain Control of the area but the populace will have capacity to vote their own regional leadership and have a generous say in the running and rulership of the land.

President Pearce

The ship released a little convoy of landing boats, carrying the first Kiravians to get ashore. The new governor of the colony, Ian Tealford, planted the flag of Austroafrica and of the Kiravian Empire on the beach of the Cape. A few religious leaders said prayers, and then work began. Prefabricated buildings were erected according to the advice of surveyors. Walls were planned, sketches were made, and more Imperials made their first footsteps onto the continent that they might never leave.

OOC: I have Nigeria, and I think some of the others are claimed too.

Cookborough, my colony name will be Devaraja.

The United States of Africa has been offically formed! Each state has their own control over local affairs, provided they pay a tax to the national government and obey all federal rules.

There have been various decrees being passed:

1. The navy of USA would be composed of super-dreadnoughts. And only super-dreadnoughts. As super-dreadnoughts are the most powerful navy unit out there, the composing of our entire navy will ensure that we will control the seas and protect all trade.

2. The army of USA would be composed of tanks. And only tanks. Tanks are all-mighty and powerful, and nothing scares evil capitalist powers than the roar of a tank. Even a tank that has no gunpowder at all is more powerful than mere conscripts who will run away at a moment's notice.

3. The air force of USA would be composed of bombers. And only bombers. Why bother protecting bombers with fighters anyway? A bomber can just bomb anything and everything! Everyone is afraid of moral damage anyway!

4. Due to fears of ruining the enviroment, all mining in the USA is strictily prohibited. USA will make its profit only through eco-tourism.

5. All childern born in the USA must pass a "Civilization Test" at the age of 6. Passing the Civilization Test means you are civilized. If you fail the Civilization Test, you will be sent to a reeducation camp where you will learn how to be civilized. Civilization is most important after all, as if you are civilized, you cannot be conquered by Imperialism! Here are a small set of questions from a Civilization Test:

1) Name the comical song and video released on December 7, 2005 that featured Godzilla and Batman. (A:The Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny)

2) Who is Luciano Borzone? (A: an Italian painter of the Baroque period (although painting in a slightly more antique style), active mainly in his natal city of Genoa.)

3) Write the full history of Malua, one of the most versatile Australian racehorses in history.

4) How does "extreme full dark metal band" relate to animal rights?

5) Decode the following Youtube messages:
"hi m&te, a/s/l."
"u r so sm8rt, <3."
"0100111001101001."

OOC: We really need an updated map, Cooksborough. People are accidentally claiming already-claimed territories. Not to blame them though. This thread jumped to 2 pages really fast.

well i'm good with what u have and I'm happy with what i have so if we can all just figure out something it'll all work out

if everyone puts up a map right now i can make of for you likadysplit

OOC: Cooksborough, some of the other nations have colonies about the same size. If you really want me too, I'll take out Senegal, Gambia, and Guinea-Bissau. Guinea too.

[OoC:Yes, but the other nations are much larger and have more capabilities to do so. Sorry.]

OOC: We really need an updated map, Cooksborough. People are accidentally claiming already-claimed territories. Not to blame them though. This thread jumped to 2 pages really fast.

Yes, i am working on that.

Please hold off on claims until i can sort this out

If no other country as them, he Commonwealth of Latislavia wishes to also lay colonial claims to Kenya and the Sudan.

Sorry, I cannot print up the map as it exceeds size but the map marks Sudan, Kenya, The Dem. Rep. of the Congo , The Rep. of the Congo and Kenya.

[Good Idea, can you make you claim a little smaller though?]

Would kicking Western Sarah out of claims be acceptable?

OOC: Ok then, I've cut off Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Senegal, and Gambia. Bunch of lost natives, but eh.

IC:

Crashing onto the beach, war parties unloaded. About 3000 infantry were here, to secure a 20-square-mile beachead and a location for the provincial capital. The deportees were to remain on board their ships until it was safe.

I'm unable to get a map up just yet, I'm on a different computer to my own, but my claims are on page 2.

You have to RP your claims, you haven't yet and i cant give you any land if you don't

Would kicking Western Sarah out of claims be acceptable?

And either algeria or libya

OOC: Am I accepted or do I still have to cut off territory?

OOC: Am I accepted or do I still have to cut off territory?

[Ooc:take off Mali and you're in]

OCC: Aw, I loved Mali. Site of three major past African empires. Fine, then. Condiser it done. (I'll edit in a moment) Can I get Togo though? It's okay if I don't.

Kiravian settlement did not stop with the new capital. Smaller contingents of colonists had been landed across the South African coast. A fleet was being sent to secure Maputo, Mozambique.

Governor Tealford looked over a map of his colony pinned to the wall of his makeshift office, next to the makeshift flag of this new Kiravian country at the bottom of this new continent. A man of the Kaldev ethnic group, he was prone to the cultural drive to try to set up a life in some distant land, to bring an element of their culture to somewhere else. Africa had been his passion. He had studied its people, its history, its wildlife, its geography. He developed an affection for the manifold nature of every aspect of it. He was, until now, one of the few Kiravians to visit the continent. It had been his ambition to bring the Kiravian Empire to Africa. Now, he had the tools to do it.

Suddenly, a dozen planes and a sikorsky helicopter landed in Khartoum,Sudan. Out of these planes came soldiers, with the Latislavian flag patched on the side of their arm sleeves. Out of the helicopter came the Premier, Rein Wilhelms, along with two other government officials and two other African represntatives. They were surrounded by guards and soldiers. They were then escorted into the Embassy. Wilhelms sat down with the Sudanese leader. He began by telling him the benefits of colonization. Wilhelms had with him representatives from the Congo both the Democratic-Republic and the Republic, Kenya, and Madagascar. Wilhelms, along with the representatives, told the Sudanese leader that if established as a new colony, they would be protected by the law and have the same benefits as other Latislavian citizens. He also pointed out the new job oppurtunities that would come up, such as the creation of buisnesses, political oppurtunties, the enlistment into the Latislavian guard, and agricultural jobs. The meeting proved to be long, but in the end after almost 6 hours of talks, the Sudanese leader conceded and gave Latislavia the right to colonize the country.
Now the colonies were established, and given new names:

1. Protectorate of the Latislavic Congo-Dem. Rep. of the Congo and Rep. Of the Congo.
2. Protectorate of Patrique-Sudan
3. Protectorate of Caesaria-Kenya
4. Protectorate of Kosta Rega- Madagascar

OOC: could someone make a map of all of our claims, I tried to make one and I can't fit one on there, I would prefere either red or yellow for my claims.

And either algeria or libya

Algeria then. Libya and Morroco it is.

cook am i in or what eh?

OCC: Aw, I loved Mali. Site of three major past African empires. Fine, then. Condiser it done. (I'll edit in a moment) Can I get Togo though? It's okay if I don't.

[OoC: Well if you want it you can keep it, but you have to give somewhere else up.]

Barronia- Approved -What's your colony's name?

cook am i in or what eh?

[OoC: Yes, but you need to shorten you claim by a lot]

Cook, nice map. I like how you consolidated the borders, it makes it more realistic. You forgot to put Mozambique and Nyasaland under Austro-Africa, though.

ok ,
http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/ff165/Adamus4414/Surailianafrica-1.png

is this better

OOC: But can I get Togo?

IC: After a few hours, the beachead was set up. The new capital city, Carik, was surrounded by troops as citizens marched into its borders. Huts were already being built, and basic services would be set up within a few hours. Until then, they would just have to wait, read, and go to outhouses every once in a while. A nearby native village, very cordial, had already agreed to help them build as well as join them, and were even now marching across the hot, sub-saharan lands.

Cook, nice map. I like how you consolidated the borders, it makes it more realistic. You forgot to put Mozambique and Nyasaland under Austro-Africa, though.

Mozambique is a bit much, but you may have Malawi. Also can you refer to nations by their current names in the future, it's just very confusing for me.


OOC: But can I get Togo?

If you are giving up Mali, yes, if not, no

IC:To the Scandinvans:

We have noticed you have occupied parts of Africa, and are quite pleased and congratulatey you. However, we do wish to remind you that the charter of the Confederacy of Scandinvan Protectorates, of which Shansekia is part of, requires a no-tariff trade between us be allowed. We thank you for your time.

From Minister Cyran Dagg of Foreign Affairs

OOC: Ok, I lose Mali for Togo. Fine with me!

Thank you i will fix it on the next update, can you refer to nations by their current names in the future, it's just very confusing for me.


Oops. Sorry. I've been reading a bit too much about British Africa of late. Malawi, must remember, Malawi, Malawi,...Malawi.......

http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/ff165/Adamus4414/Surailianafrica-2.png

This might be better :P

OOC: Good luck. Surailia, if yours gets aprroved, you share your entire southern border with my northwestern border. :D BTW, is that Sierra Leone in your territory? I already got that.

Shan, 2 things

1. treaty writing time
2 we need ta figure out a territory cause i wasn't French Africa and you are getting all that i really want the ivory coast

http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/ff165/Adamus4414/Surailianafrica-2.png

This might be better :P

[Ooc: What's the colony's name?]

The one on top is "Corinth" The One in the middle of kiravian terra is "Les-Othea",the far west is "Terre-Neuve" and the south west is "Suralian Maila"

The whole thing is just Suralian Africa

OOC:Not very good, but the countries are in back. If someone could make a map and fill in all the colonies according to nation color, fill mine in black. This would be greatly appreciated.

OOC: Treaty writing time it is!

IC:

To Surailia:

We have noticed you are currently attempting occupy Sierra Leone. We have received word that you would much rather have the "Ivory Coast" (Cote d'Ivoire). We are willing to cede the Ivory Coast in exchange for Sierra Leone. However, we wish that both territories (Ivory Coast and Sierra Leone) have free "land rights" to both countries. Basically, my country can still purchase land and mine (under your laws) in Sierra Leone without requiring citizenship or some kind of green card, and yours can do the same to Ivory Coast. However, as the Ivory Coast is significantly larger than Sierra Leone, we wish that we receive some kind of one-time reinbrusement or continuing tax of some sort. I hope we can come to terms of agreement.

From Minister Cyran Dagg of Foreign Affairs

OOC: make me a map i am having issues understanding this

Ic: Surailia is willing to accept, but further Agreements must be brought to rest we shall parlee soon

Francois De la Carte, Minister of African Affairs 2007

The one on top is "Corinth" The One in the middle of kiravian terra is "Les-Othea",the far west is "Terre-Neuve" and the south west is "Suralian Maila"

The whole thing is just Suralian Africa

When Governor Telaforest heard of Surailia's annexation of Lesotho, he was quite happy. As a fellow UC member, he would grant Les-Othea access to Austro-African railroads and ports, so that they could develop their economy.

OOC: Here ya go: Image isn't working, it'll be up soon
Basically, I get Sierra Leone and you get the Ivory Coast, but our citizens can enter, exit, use the land, etc. without having to become citizens of the other nation or get special licenses

OOC: well i don't know my country might tax Shansekian mines excessively

OOC: It's called negotiation. I tax them a certain amount, you do same :P

is there any land left? if so, may i make a claim after seeing an updated map?

fun, but i'm more interested in just getting my territory on that map so i can go see sweeny todd with my "bitch" and not have to worry about ppl sweeping it up

I know surailia, but Ivory Coast is like over 4 times larger than Sierra Leone. It's not like my goverment will just exchange like that without compensation. Just give them some cash and they'll be fine.

[OoC: try to keep the OOC at a minimum, please]

The morning sun could be felt coming through the windows as could the hustle and bustle of the city. Carts moving, peddlers peddling, barges loaded with Egyptian cotton headed for Cookborough. Yes, Cairo was alive and well that fine morning busy with the day's new troubles. Yet, it was not just the city with newer problems this morning.

Governor D'Ambaro had been up all night, insurgency had been plaguing the city. It had happened sporatically but had now become a much larger problem. The fiends behind this crime had not yet been caught, no group had come forward to claim responsibility.

He looked into a mirror in his bathroom, "Ho bisogno del sonno..."

then he heard an explosion from out side his window


is there any land left? if so, may i make a claim after seeing an updated map?

Front Page, Where do you wish to claim?

fun, but i'm more interested in just getting my territory on that map so i can go see sweeny todd with my "bitch" and not have to worry about ppl sweeping it up

:D Do I detect some misogyny?

ok well we can figure that out later:P

ahaha lol no she is.....well she is a good friend....kind of like a faghag...i dono how do u describe her......

Long has the continent of Africa lain away, hidden from the rest of the world and her vast resources go untapped for the greater good of the world. But, yet times change and no longer can this continue as the demand of the wealthier and more powerful nations of the world increases so shall the supply has to also grow no matter what the cost. So therefore now the world looks to Africa and all the she has to offer has thus she shall now be made to give her resources to the rest of the world to satisfy the vast demand which could no longer be fed solely by the resources of one nation.


Rules:

No God Modding

Establish a colony and run it according to your own warped political ideals. Care for the native or deliberately oppress them. It's really up to you.

Resources they are in the same places as they are in real life.

To make a claim please RP it and your nation's arrival

As for things like genocide, slavery, forced removals, environmental crap, etc. do as you like as I shall not act as they police men here and I generally do not care, though I cannot say the same for the rest of the people here. Though to note they is no real population census as there has never been done so you can get away with killing a few million if you wish as there will be no proof to how many you really killed open to the outside world.


Claims are up for grabs till I finalize them.

Note: Please make claims reasonable and allow room for other players, Thank you.

[OoC: I know, that's way too much for you]

OOC: If you really want to, we can do it some other thread or something so we don't clutter this thread..."later" :P

IC:

The city of Carik was now well underway. Wooden houses were being erected and outhouses were complimented with recently shipped toilets, among other goods. The plumbing, transportation and road, and communication systems were being planned as well, but for now, people still had to go to the outhouses and shout outside. Meanwhile, the territory of Ghana was completly secure, and mining operations were already starting 4 miles north of the area.

Meanwhile, the local natives taught the to-be leaders how farming worked and what was needed. Soon, new irrigation channels from the Gulf of Carilos led to plowed and seeded lands. The natives also agreed to merge their village with the city, and also planned to have their warriors enlist into the Shansekian Army and witness the terrible and beautiful power of firearms.

All was well.

can i get Ghana too there and what about tunaisa?

[OoC: Well if you want it you can keep it, but you have to give somewhere else up.]

Barronia- Approved -What's your colony's name?

Awesome. The colony's name will be The Barronian West African Territories (BWAT).

OOC: Ah... Best of luck, Surailia ;)

IC: Saar-Austroafrica had grown to a city of 12,000 people. Nearly all of the coastal towns now had populations of at least over one thousand.

Now, the march inland was to begin. But to that to happen, affairs with the African natives would have to be tended to. What was the plan? Ally with who you can, send into reserves or 'homelands' those you can't, and conquer who resists.

It wasn't as disrespectful as it seemed. The tribes and cheifdoms that allied with the Kiravian Empire would be rewarded with land and autonomy. Those who submitted, but did not aid the Empire would not be harmed, but would live under full Imperial rule. And those who fought would get a fight.

The Imperial 18th Legion arrived in the capital. Their mission was to ensure that the interior was annexed safely. Once that was done, cities, railroads, hyrdopower plants, and bases would be built. Kiravization of Africa would dawn.

(OOC: Restatement of claims with the sole purpose of getting a pretty color=

The USA is composed of Libya and Morroco, at present. Future claims will have to, uh, come...er...eventually.)

The Boats landed, A legion of Boats landed and like ants the people began to work the Exploration teams left first They would come back in a months time and tell us where to settle farther up in "Suralian Africa" here though a group one thousand strong got right down to work.

From the boat Governor Antoine Delavoir and Maharajah Siddhartha Nampuripanijaab looked down at the New town.

The ghost of overpopulation was again haunting the Confederacy. Density has grew to 150 inhabitants per cubic kilometer and the arcologies were almost full and larger underwater settlements than towns would be not only unfeasible, but prohibitively expensive. Finally they decided to move, seeking to claim the northwest of Africa peacefully, by offering the natives their technology in exchange of sharing their lands and a promise of respecting the environment, their culture and beliefs. Departing from Porto Populi (http://img81.imageshack.us/img81/9229/tssmapmc4.jpg), a fleet of 100 cargo and transport ships, carrying besides enough supplies for two weeks, construction equipment, network equipment including computers and seeds, about 20,000 settlers, 6 iron columns and 3 steel striders. The fleet was escorted by a small fleet of 10 destroyers, 10 missile frigates, 10 submarines and 10 cruisers using similar technology to AEGIS, should an opportunist rogue State or modern pirate attempt to take them down.

Galdez, a middle-aged man asked his friends aboard one of the transport ships

"What are we supposed to claim?"

"Morocco, Western Sahara and Lybia, we shall split into 3 fleets to land at the coast of each of those forgotten lands", they said.

"Closest territories to our main land, it makes sense, anything else?", he asked, with his elderly wisdom of being one of the youngsters of the first generation of Third Spanish States emanating from his green eyes.

"Yes, there is one more thing: remember what a Confederacy means?"

"Sure, it's supposed to mean a group of independent communes united under a common goal and helping each other. So does that mean?"

"Yes... we shall become a completely independent commune, allied to the communes of the main land and also protected by them"

"I see. So how long will this travel take?", he asked

"The fleet is already splitting. Our ship shall land in the future Confederacy of Lybian Communes, while others shall land in the future Confederacy of Morocco Communes and Confederacy of West Sahara Communes. Everyone shall reach their destinations in a few hours. That map there has the details. The large white circles are the estimated locations where our fleets will land"

He looked at the map and nodded.

And their the three separated fleets moved to their destinations.

OOC: I start writing this before SilentScope post... here comes another diplomatic "hell"

We would like to claim- after having seen this morning's updated map and the latest posts- Morocco, Western Sahara, Djibouti and Gambia. We will treat these territories as semi-autonomous provinces so just list them as 'Democratic Eurasia'. We intend to bring civilisation to these regions. Our goals will be:
Creating and maintaining an working democratic system, an efficient economy and a modern infrastructure.
Ending barbaric practices that endanger people or the environment e.g. slavery, female circumcision, overgrazing.
While we intend to respect the local cultures, this continent must move into the modern world. Becoming a welcome part of a modern, successful country is the easiest way for this to happen- we do not intend to make the mistake the old colonists did.
If there's a problem with our selected colonies then let us know- we will respect earlier claims. If not then please give us the go ahead- could our colour be dark green or white?

[OoC:Okay, How about Guinea-Bissau, Djibouti, and Somaliland?]

A message arrive from EDDNet to the colonists of Morocco:

"A nation has made an early claim to such territories, we request you to land a few hundreds of kilometers southwest of the previously established landing area. We shall negotiate with them in attempt to have the southwestern portion of it, which borders with West Sahara and South Algeria, nearing Lybia. We shall inform you of the results of the negotiations as soon as they are finished"

The Magisterium had been slow off the mark, but no more. Owing to the size of the area at hand, over 300 ships of varying descriptions had been dispatched - escort carriers, cruise liners, military vehicle transporters, and even a contingent of battleships.

As the first landers beached upon the shoreline, the first of the recon squads unloaded. This was soon followed by a command division, who would soon set camp upon the nearest village, whether the residents liked it or not.

The Peoples Republic of Gulf Oceana would like ot lay claims on any territory not already claimed, We wish this be done accordingly. Thank you

Intercolonial Relations

To: Scandinavian Africa, Latislavic Africa, Surailian Les-Othia
Subject: South African Cooperation

As the four undisputed colonial countries in Southern Africa, it would be beneficial to all of our colonies to engage in an act of mutual cooperation and assistance. Namely, assistance in the development of our economies and territories.

We propose that free trade should exist between all mentioned colonies (Homelands not affected), and that a cooperative effort be put into development of infrastructure in the interior area where the borders of each colony do meet, and, in Latislavic Africa's case, port facilities on the coast of the mainland colonies.

Hopefully, this appeal for regional cooperation will be recieved well, and promote better inter-colonial relations.

We have noticed you have occupied parts of Africa, and are quite pleased and congratulatey you.

The Morroccan fleet finally lands in the southwest of Morocco, and supplies, people and construction equipment are unloaded from the cargo ships, escorted by one armored steel striders division with a total of 100 armored vehicles and two iron columns infantry divisions with a total of 600 men, while the small fleet lies over the horizon protecting the coast. As of its happening, a message is sent to USA, negotiating a parallel to split the Morroccan territory. Galdez walk on the beach, looking at his friend Saul.

"Do you think it's going to work out? I am afraid of the consequences this small claim might bring"

"Don't worry Galdez, we have thousands of good diplomats, and you know our established communes have a clear policy of avoiding to enter into conflict with nations where political and civilian freedoms are highly regarded, regardless of economic systems. Finally, there's a policy of not entering into more than one conflict per time, and we're already having some brave men engaged in Evoinia and in DEFCON 1 as a result."

"Let's hope this is solved in a good manner, I don't want this to turn into another 38th parallel incident.", he replied.

"It won't happen. We aren't the Soviet Union, we stand for democracy like them and we have a kind of free market, though different, actually freer than theirs", Saul smiled.

"All right, lets help the people them", Saul pointed to the people who were already preparing some buildings.

*OOC Edit:

I would like to RP a negotiation with SilentScope003 first and see if they can succeed, even if they have to buy that portion of territory from USA.

Understood. We do have quite a bit of land.

Sorry the internet here is balking around- I didn't see Kirav's posting when we refreshed and saw Cookborough's. We'll take Mozambique- if that offer still stands. To avoid any trouble with Kirav we'll be willing to negotiate a compensation fee. But why am I limited to only one colony?

Understood. We do have quite a bit of land.

No offense or anything, i just dont want like 5 people owning the whole continent

Sorry the internet here is balking around- I didn't see Kirav's posting when we refreshed and saw Cookborough's. Anyway, how about Sudan?

You can have Mozambique or Mauritania

Mozambique please. I've got a rather bemused fleet admiral waiting for his next set of orders off the Spanish coast- if he could keep going in the same direction for more then two minutes I'm sure his dizziness will clear up.

Okay Mozambique it is then

No offense or anything, i just dont want like 5 people owning the whole continent


None taken. I understand your reasoning.

A few hours after the landing of the Morroccan fleet:

The other fleets arrived at West Sahara and Algerian coasts, landing equivalent amounts of equipment, supplies and people over their coasts to the Moroccan fleet landing. The plan was to build the towns near the coast and after a day announce they were ready for more colonists from the dense megacities, and also seek to ally with the native people offering them a direct democracy and rights to believe and keep their cultures unchanged. The only difference for the three plans was all buildings from Moroccan landing would be cheap and expendable so they could abandon them and move to West Sahara should the negotiations with USA fail.

A small group of natives observed the Morroccan construction effort from the colonists from a stealthy position, assuming they were invaders, but still unsure about them as they seemed different from others who came before. They asked one of them to contact the settlers and see what they were up to and he courageously went to meet the Third Spanish States settlers.

OOC: Cookborough, check the edit with an OOC reply to your message in my previous post if you didn't notice it.

<snip>

Yes, i'm aware please notify me of the outcome

wat is the official status on the colonies in Africa right now because everything left is the People's Republic of Gulf Oceana and i would like to know to wat colonies i lay claim to without having to sift through 8 pages of dialog

Austro-Africa's colonial population had grown to 200,000.

It was time to press inward.

The Battle Anthem of the Empire played as a detatchment of the 18th Legion marched out of Saar-Austroafrica, along with non-Military service officers to oversee treaties, surveying, and mapping which tribes lived where, and what their threat levell was.

Governor Tealford was looked on as the supply trucks rumbled out of his capital city. Kirav's African Empire was beginning to take shape. "Soon," he thought, "Thousands more shall settle the interior. I shall be able to raise a Provincial Military to protect us. We will truly be an Imperial country here."

It was Spain's med coast. I've just seen that updated map, thanks for all that extra land. I've got to go now but if I put in a request for Djibouti (if its still unclaimed) tomorrow evening how will that be taken? Oh one other thing- you've included Swaziland in my mandate- now I'm happy to accept the extra land, but I won't take offence is you want to take it out. And could I, um um um, please have a different colour from yellow? Maybe white or dark green?
Now get out those sun glasses boy's its time to relax on the Indian oceans beaches! Its time for sun-tans, iced drinks and deckchairs!:cool:

OOC Question: Do we rp our own natives?

The first village was soon taken under the wing of the Magisterium, the leaders bribed with food and commodities. Several command tents were set up on the outside of the village, temporary structures until a more established military base could be constructed.

Helicopters were sent out, carrying various diplomats and soldiers, to speak to the villages more inland, and begin a concerted colonisation effort. They would be paid well for their services in talking to people about the benefits of joining the Magisterium's crusade to bring enlightenment, civilisation, prosperity, and a common cause to these forsaken lands.

The formation of Barronian West Africa was underway.

OOC: Wait, Oceanic Colonies has Ghana? I'm already RPing my capital there...

If it's Ivory Coast, I'm RPing with Surailia about that too...sheesh.

Fort Tanzania, Austroafrica

Dawn broke over the little Kiravian outpost on Lake Tanganyika.

It was the northernmost settlement of Austroafrica, populated by no more than one hundred souls, mostly Kiravian military personnel.

Private Éthyr Winterpine was walking back from a morning dip in the cool fault lake. Kiravians were not a tropical people. Kirav was a temperate land of forests and mountains, and Kirav's empire of colonies was mostly restricted to temperate places. Most of Austro-Africa was far enough from the Equator to keep it habitable to the common settler. Not Fort Tanzania. Butted up against a lake in the middle of the Rift Valley's jagged, volcanic peaks, not at all far from the Earth's bulging waistline, it was hot.

Luckily, a few minutes in the lake had cooled his system enough to work comforatbly for a few more hours. Winterpine was especially at risk. He came from the subarctic colony of Rower's Land, far to the north and west of Africa.

But it wasn't only that that put the Kiravian at risk. In the rainforests along the path back to the Fort, a pair of human eyes watched his every move.

OOC: Wait, Oceanic Colonies has Ghana? I'm already RPing my capital there...

any territory that was not claimed before my first post is now Oceanic Colonies so if Ghana was not claimed then...then it is part of the Oceanic Colonies

OOC QUESTION: all of the Grey Area's should be part of the Oceanic Colonies cus right now i have Ghana when i should have more then that...I was told that the territories unowned at the time i layed claim were all Oceanic Colonies!

I have Claimed Ghana and Tunisia (Surailia is in Frances and part of Italy so it would be a nice addition in my region)


Oceana
I will take north Ghana and you can have the coast....and i don't think you are allowed the rest of Africa.....you'd get invaded like mad....personally i think that we should make the Sahara a autonomous region as no one can live there anyways....

Whoa...I want some too. How's Uganda, Kenya, Burundi, Rwanda and Tanzania? More or less that grey bit of East coast?

Should the claim be approved:


The ship sailed across the Indian Ocean and was bound for Africa. Uiri needed more colonies as Uir Antarctica and Rin-Alep-Piren just weren't going to cut it. The flag would have to be designed and the help of the locals would also be needed. If Uiri was lucky, Kirav wouldn't yet have a stake in it. Everywhere they turned Kirav had a colony near theirs. It was time for a larger, grander Uir Empire, ironically spreading freedom throughout the world. Perhaps the locals could agree to a Protectorate status which would be just as good. Uiri didn't need to have the territory right away...

OOC Question: Do we rp our own natives?

You can, just be realistic

OOC: Wait, Oceanic Colonies has Ghana? I'm already RPing my capital there...

I don't remember you asking for it, sorry if there was a misunderstanding.

No they shouldn't...you asked for a territory and you got it. Besides, you are far to small to adequatly administer anything else. Any gray area at this point other than Algeria, Morrocco and Cabinda are open for claim.

[OoC: I know, that's way too much for you]

Well, can I have the Sudan or just Kenya then, I saw some trying to claim them, but i already had one or both of them. I would be willing to split one or both between me and another nation if at all possible. Also, does anyone have an updated map?

[OoC: for the sake of Cartographic aesthics would you rather take Algeria?]

It was...ahem, due, to Cartographic aesthics that I choosen what I choose. Okay though. Make your life easier. Algeria and Morroco.

I would like to RP a negotiation with SilentScope003 first and see if they can succeed, even if they have to buy that portion of territory from USA.

(Huh. Sure thing then. I always wanted to RP negotations...as, to be honest, war bores me. Will be interested to see how your negotiations will go. USA is a bit stubborn though...but if you play your cards right, you'll get what you want.

Will be making a seperate thread though, so that I can avoid the clutter.

The claim of Algeria may conflict with the new change from Libya to Algeria, but another 'divison' is possible.)

i will not give up any of the territory i have...and i need a lil more territory then i have because i am being screwed over... i should at least get a few more areas of territory..not the rest of the map but some...it is only right

Whoa...I want some too. How's Uganda, Kenya, Burundi, Rwanda and Tanzania? More or less that grey bit of East coast?

YEah sorry about that didn't see it I will be changing my claim to Eritrea so don't worry about it.

Uiri, you managed to put in my claim before me and you posted mine not that long before I posted mine oh well. I have changed my claim to Eritrea but perhaps we could split Tanzania.

Cookborough: Uir Afirik. My country doesn't know it is east.

Your nation is too small to be claiming that much land

So, then what all will I get? Just so I know.

Congo Forest, Highlands:

Commander Hiload stared unto the village which, until recently, had been another peaceful farming village on the banks of ones of the many rivers that flowed into the Congo River, but now it was nothing more then a pile of dirt, ash, and bones as the Scandinvan Imperial Special Operaitons Unit had been deployed to force into subjugation the local tribes and villages. Though there had been no diplomatic discussion between the two the Empire had decided the most effective way of taking control of the colonies was to destroy a number of villages and towns and then withdraw the force and submit a few bodies and claim that they were just a local band of evil doers that had been killed by Scandinvan soldiers. Using that as a source of their power they would begin to have troops garrisions established and begin to seize control over the countryside.

In the other regions the Empire had sent forces to either follow the same techniques in regions with similiar geographic properties. In other regions the Scandinvan Empire employed the securing of water holes well for desert regions, in grasslands they secured the local water systems, and in the mountains they secured the mountain passes with force.

Oh, they will co-operate. Mostly afraid and trying to get colonies away from the Kirav Empire. Don't worry, Uir aren't stupid and they pose no threat to you.



Ah. Just curious, as I don't know much about the K.E.'s image in the minds of most of the NS world. They have naught to fear from the Kiravians anyway, as Uiri was in the CN for a time.

So, then what all will I get? Just so I know.

Madagascar, however it isn't against the rules to gain land via invasion or purchase

Is it coast you want? b/c that's what I want. I'd give you Rwanda or Burundi if you don't mind landlocked with access to my ports for importing citizens.

Cookborough: Uir Afirik. My country doesn't know it is east.

Yes it is some coast that I want when I meant spilt it so we both get coast either way. If you do not like that idea then I will take you up on your offer and have Rwanda, with your offer of allowing our citizens to use your ports

YEah sorry about that didn't see it I will be changing my claim to Eritrea so don't worry about it.

Uiri, you managed to put in my claim before me and you posted mine not that long before I posted mine oh well. I have changed my claim to Eritrea but perhaps we could split Tanzania.

Well, I think I also get Kenya, so if you wouldn't mind making that adjustment. Then all shall be done.

Yeah sorry boyo but small nations always get the short end of the stick.....

well then i would like to lay claim to at least tunisia

No, your nation is about 3 or 4 days old, be happy with what you already have

well you cant blame him for trying....as for my claim to Tunisia

OOC: I just looked at the map and it only showed Madagascar. If u could please put Kenya in gold, I would appreciate it.:)

Boy, this has really been a scramble, hasn't it?

OOC: Niice, what do you have?

A the inhabitant of a small village called Dokambe gathered nervously in the centre of their cluster of huts in what was once Britain's Orange River colony.

Their tribe's leader, Mpanga, had heard of the coming of strange men from the south, and had come all the way to tis tiny border hamlet to parley with them. He stood at the entrance to the village, negotating with one of the tall, white men that had come. The cheiftain spoke in broken English. The pale man's English was better, but a few words of his native tongue slipped in.

"White man, why-do you come?"

"I ie from té Kiravian Empire, eth I have come to ask kër an alliancia with sur tribe."

The cheiftain was fearful. The last time white men had come, they had forced them into mines by the hundreds, taken their land, their kingdoms. But maybe allying with them would spare his tribe.

"What we do?"

"Sú will recognise Þur rule over this area, eth sur men will help us take control of more land. In return, you will retím your land fer, eth Þú will destroy sur enemies."

This was more than he could have bargained for. he had saved his land! And sealed the downfall of his rivals!

He signed the treaty that the Kiravian presented, bearing the signature of Governor Tealford. An alliance was made.

Oil gems and gold!

OOC: So I have Ghana, right?

IC:

It was done. All of Carilos was now completly secured, with troops finally reaching the colonial borders. Carik was up and running, its roads fully paved, apartment buildings planned, and basic services and trade running. Already, trade with the Scandinvans was starting up, with Kiravian trade being planned. Multiple small coastal and inland villages were converted to mining towns, and a mini-gold rush started from the mainland. Soon, over 500,000 populated the townships and cities, surviving in the winter with food from the mainland.

"So, I hear Carilos goes well?" said the Supreme Overlord, smiling.

"Yes sir." said the recently appointed colonial magistrate, General Beck. "The outflow of citizens to the colony was so fast, we had to close down the borders for 2 days. Anyway, the colony should be self-sustainable by summer."

"How about the resources?"

"Well, gold mining has already started. Iron, diamonds, timber, and oil should be up soon as well."

"Good."

Oil gems and gold!

No, I mean which countries do you have?

look at the map

and you get Ghana when i get Tunisia

Fine ill Give yall Ghana But i NEED Tunisia

ooc: Oh, ok then. Even though I claimed it first, I'll give it to you to use as a bargaining tool. o.O

OOC: I just looked at the map and it only showed Madagascar. If u could please put Kenya in gold, I would appreciate it.:)

Boy, this has really been a scramble, hasn't it?

Well, I think I also get Kenya, so if you wouldn't mind making that adjustment. Then all shall be done.

Latislavia - Be happy if I don't steal Madagascar from you. I have Kenya, that's final. Sorry I lafet for 40 minutes, I was kicked off.

Yes it is some coast that I want when I meant spilt it so we both get coast either way. If you do not like that idea then I will take you up on your offer and have Rwanda, with your offer of allowing our citizens to use your ports

Yes, that sounds magnificent. Rwanda will be de facto part of your colony although I would prefer not to make it de jure. Basically, I reserve the right to kick you off.


Flag for my colony coming soon to a post near you (in this thread)

Yes, that sounds magnificent. Rwanda will be de facto part of your colony although I would prefer not to make it de jure. Basically, I reserve the right to kick you off.

Yes very well, so just to be clear I get some control over Rwanda and am able to have it as a part of my colony but if you want to you can kick me out take over control of that area at any time correct

I may also connect it by air so that my colony in Eritrea and Rwanda are connected as well, just awaiting approval that I have Eritrea

Flag for my colony coming soon to a post near you (in this thread)

Sorry, didn't realize that Kenya was already claimed. Who has Ghana?

OOC: What can you use to make a flag for your colonies? Just curious.

As the Morroccan native saw the hundreds of armed soldiers and the hundred armored fighting vehicles, he immediately went to the others to warn about what he assumed they were there for:

"They are here to plunder our land and enslave our children! They sent six hundreds of armed soldiers to take everything and destroy and their vehicles of war. If we surprise them we can drive them off!", he said with consternation

"Wait! Are you definitively sure? They seem different form the way other invaders were registered in our history."

"I am definitively sure about" he nodded as he got an old AK-47 assault rifle from a hidden stash they had. "Morrocco might have been lost to chaos but we are still a sovereign nation and shall fight for our independence! Move forth! Jihad al Akbar!"

The wise elderly chieftain of their small community frowned "Forward to our deaths? Look at their vehicles! They probably have enough to load all their soldiers inside and our weapons wouldn't put a dent to them. Maybe they were worried other countries would ruthlessly attack them if they went in undefended, they don't seem to be preparing for attacking and expanding further through force either. And Ahmed, the Jihad al Akbar isn't a war that happens in the realms of flesh, but in the realms of the spirit. The grave misreading about it already brought too many unnecessary bloodshed and damnation to many lost souls."

Ahmed looked at the Elder and frowned:

"What do you suggest? Bowing to the invaders and serving them as slaves?"

The Elder was looking at the Third Spanish States military forces through a binocular as Ahmed spoke:

"Ahmed! This is completely wrong! Take a look at them and answer me: Do you also see the difference of their soldiers in comparison to all others?"

Ahmed took the binocular and observed the military forces ahead:

"They are just like other military forces, I see no difference at all. They are going to invade everything if we don't do anything!"

The elder gently replied: "Look at their uniforms, at their shoulders and around their breasts, look at all of them"

Then Ahmed slowly observed the soldiers once again, focusing on their uniforms over the breast and shoulders, he then noticed something peculiar:

"They don't have ranks or medals! They all use the same type of insignias!", and stopped looking at the binocular.

The elder then smiled: "They treat each other as their equals, even between their warriors, I am sure they shall treat our people as equals. We should drop our arms here and contact them. I know the 'world language' from the time we had a government, and I will try to speak with them, hopefully they speak English too. You don't have to protect or follow me, though I will not stop you if you wish to, just don't carry weapons or we might scare them. And the Elder went towards the Third Spanish States settlement, followed by a handful of his stateless people.

------------

A soldier from a 20-man group spotted them and said, in Spanish: "Comrades, there are some natives coming! they seem unarmed, you know what we must do, keep our weapons down and be friendly, in the hope some of them speak English"

They kept their weapons down and waved towards the natives as a sign of friendliness. Soon they approached the soldiers with caution, and their elder ahead of them, one of the soldiers promptly asked:

"Do any of you speak English?"

The elder Sajjad replied:

"I do. I would like to ask you who are you, where you came from, what you are doing here and what you intend to do."

The soldier said:

"We the iron column, the infantry of our nation, and my name is Leroy Meritt Zannon. We came from the Confederacy of Third Spanish States, a place Northwest of here where everyone is free and rule directly the land rather than bowing to kings, though nobody can impose their orders on minorites. We are building a town here to be the first civilized one for the future Marroccan Communes, which shall be completely independent from our mainland, and before you ask, a commune is a voluntary association of people where everybody is considered equal. If you or any of your people wish to join us, they shall have granted immediate political rights for the Marroccan Communes. We shall respect your culture to the fullest, with a few... exceptions"

"What exceptions?"

A female soldier looked at the elder and continued:

"We will not tolerate mistreatment to women and forced use of burgas or similar, except if they voluntarily accept submission and this shall not be valid for violent actions. Our people will not react nicely to the attempts of applying laws which order women or men to be stoned to death if they exert their sexual liberties to the full extent, neither shall tolerate such practices in our territory."

The elder expression became enraged as he shout:

"Ahmed was right! You are wolves in sheep disguises! You are a legion of unclean sodomites and infidels wanting to impose your arbitrary views of freedom over us as a pretext to sack our lands!"

Then before anybody got time to reply he said in a calmer voice:

"But as you said your 'communes' are voluntary societies, we shall tolerate your presence as long as you don't meddle in our small civilized communities and respect their autonomy."

The female soldier eyes were filled with anger, when suddenly five small teen feminine figures in burgas behind him took their burgas off as they ran to the Third Spanish States cities. The elder enraged shouted in their language as a fanatic hatred filled him, drawing a pistol from his pocket:

"The sodomites are corrupting our youth with their ally, the Great Satan! Charge!", before the soldiers could react he shot against the female soldier and against one of the teenagers, the name of the soldier was Maria Sanchez. She was wounded in the chest, and only through luck the bullet didn't hit her heart. She felt in the ground, agonizing in pain. The 12 years old girl didn't have the same luck and died on the spot.

Just after the shots Leroy aimed his G11-R against Sajjad and fired it against his head, killing the elder as an angry mob charged carelessly against them from the desert, most with swords only and a few carrying AK-47s. 4 heavy infantry soldiers aimed their A-31 light machineguns against them and shouted "Don't kill yourselves! Stop now or we will have to shoot!", as they were about 100 meters from the iron column and medics ran to attend the wounded soldier. However they didn't listen, as the soldiers forgot they didn't know English and continued their suicidal charge.

Having no other choice, one of them fired his machinegun and the others followed him. An AK-47 round from Ahmed, who was shooting randomly as he ran, got Leroy in the arm, and after resisting the initial pain, he immediately pulled an injection from his belt and applied it to his other arm as he shouted "I still can fight".

A rain of bullets slowly massacred wave after wave of 2,500 native fighters, only those few wise enough to take cover and use AK-47s rather than charging suicidally were still alive and shooting against the now entrenched Third Spanish States forces, about 100 of the native soldiers at 500 meters from distance of them. Five soldiers from Third Spanish States were gravely wounded in the firefight and many others were wounded.
Leroy arm was being bandaged by a medic as he used a .50 Desert Eagle pistol with his healthy arm: his pain was subsided by the drug he injected. They received an encrypted radio message:
"We had too many wounded already. Oso Artillery unit ready! Take cover, it will fire air burst shells against those fanatical brainwashed childkillers!"

They all got down and kept using suppressive fire against the natives as 3 artillery rounds flied from a few hundreds of meters behind them and soon passed above them. They got straight against the remaining hostiles where the impacted with the sands almost simultaneously, killing or wounding gravely them. As soon as the explosions ceased, there was no more fire. Then the medics which were not busy went carefully to the site, accompanied by rescue vehicles, to give assistance to survivors. Among many corpses they found 25 who were luckily still alive, but gravely wounded. "Send them to our vacant UCIs in the cargo ships!", a medic shouted as they were careful carried in the vehicles and sent to the ship.

From a bed inside a hastily built barracks, Maria, conscious, listened to the reports of the battle as a girl, Zaahira Farad, was near watching her. Tears swept from Maria's eyes as the "victory" was granted. In the eyes of most it was a defeat. They did not managed to achieve peace with the natives, and wiped out most able-bodied men from a nearby village. They were making the same atrocities of their European ancestors, ironically in the name of anarchism. Leroy was sat on a chair, his mood was not the best even if the pain from his wound was gone. A friend came to him: "We did what we had to. And look at the good side, a land previously occupied by medieval beliefs will now be freed."

Leroy looked at him and frowned "You can fantasize about being a freedom fighter as much as you want, but the truth is that we are imposing beliefs to a people, we are breaking their right of self-rule, we are forcing them to leave thousands of years of tradition, no matter how disgusting they are to our eyes, behind. We are nothing but a bunch of imperialist bastards here, this is the truth.", then the soldier said nothing in reply, he simply left. Only grieving remained to their forces...

(OOC: I'll have to start the negotiations in another thread)

---------

At the same time the towns in the border between Tunysia and Lybia and in West Sahara were already established and a official statement about they being independent States allied to Third Spanish States sent. The negotiations about Morrocco still were to begin though.

Sorry, didn't realize that Kenya was already claimed. Who has Ghana?

OOC: What can you use to make a flag for your colonies? Just curious.

Firstly, don't double post.

Secondly, Ghana is claimed by Surailia or Shansekia.

Thirdly I use paint. It can be surprisingly useful.

Yes very well, so just to be clear I get some control over Rwanda and am able to have it as a part of my colony but if you want to you can kick me out take over control of that area at any time correct

I may also connect it by air so that my colony in Eritrea and Rwanda are connected as well, just awaiting approval that I have Eritrea

What I had in mind. Technically it could be yours de jure and I could invade it and annex it to Uir Afirik should I want it but I feel having it de facto yours and de jure mine will lessen blood shed.

IC:

The ship came in from the North and landed on the shores of Northern Kenya. Men started piling out of the vessel and others similar to it also landed. The beach was very crowded and the 'Majour' planted in the pre-made flag using the Uir flag in the canton, a green stripe beside it for wealth. The bottom half was black and red. The black stripe was the top quarter of the bottom half while red filled the rest of the flag. Red represented blood which united all humans. Black was for the suppossed skin colour natives had.

That evening, Nikko Ladise, along with forces of 900 armed troops, sailed towards Madagascar. They hit land and were soon marching towards the capital. Ladise new that he was to be the new Governor-General of Madagascar, soon to be named Kosta Reiga. Many townspeople went back into their homes and shops as the soldiers approached. Ladise met with the current leader of Madagascar and said to him," A new age is coming, sir. My leader, Premier Rein Wilhelms, has called for expansion." He noticed the worried look in the leaders eyes. " Now," continued Ladise," we wish to be as diplomatic as possible. We wish to incorporate you into a new Protectorate. We noticed your economy is failing. Ours is on the rise. If you allow us to colonize this island and place you under control of our nation, we shall provide new jobs and better conditions for your people. You will still be leader, but you and I shall share powers. Your citizens will have the benefits of being a Latislavian citizen.They will be able to vote and enlist in the armed forces. We will not force your people to work. However, we will create more oppurtunites to work for the unemployed in your country." After much thought, the Madagascarian leader signed the agreement, handing over the nation to Latislavia, and establishing the new capital, calling it New Belrosko.

(OOC: I'll have to start the negotiations in another thread)

To be honest, erm, I already made such a thread...here. With the offical response about negogiations.

I'll post your response in that thread to save time.

I'd like to claim Western Sahara and Mauritania if I may, failing that I'd like Eritrea and Dijibouti

you can have Djibouti, Eritrea is mine

hey it got its title for a reason, and Africa is defiantly the richest continent on earth (natural) my colony itself has more oil than an Italian guys head

....

We have already layed claim to Eritrea, just wondering if we are apporved Cookborough

See 2 posts above

OOC: So I have Ghana, right?

Sorry, if you want Ghana you will have to talk it over with Gulf Oceana

OOC: I wasn't aware SilentScope got Algeria too...

OOC: Me neither. I would rather have Libya, so that I would have a huge gap in defenses, and it look pretty. Though in the end, I wanted to make it easier for the map guy, so he asked me to change it from Libya to Algeria. So, there we go.

This isn't, uh, a good thing, as you made some posts on Algeria. If you want, you can just retcon it to have your other colonies in Libya (due to the fact that nobody's claiming it), and just focus on Morroco for the territoral dispute. Of course, that cause territorial gaps too, making it hard for Cookboroguh either way.

OOC: I'll retcon it to Lybia then, with Tunysia as well, so for the Algerian settlement should be considered as located in the coast exactly in the border among those two countries. Guess the diplomacy will involve an stretch of "Algerian Corridor" as well.

[OoC: Wait, i'll switch around Algeria and Libya amongst you 2, if you want. I dont mind at all]

Guess the diplomacy will involve an stretch of "Algerian Corridor" as well.

OOC: Will be fun. :D

you can have Djibouti, Eritrea is mine

OOC: Thankyou, that will be sufficent.

IC:

Airstrip One was a testimony to the brutal efficency that was the Pact of Iron's war machine when the entire population had been exterminated and the country turned into a huge factory complex. It was one of the few remaining pieces of the Pact of Iron's overseas empire, and was now being used as a staging ground by the Empire of the Wolf to continue the limited imperial policy of the previous regime. A large task force comprised of every type of ship from light destroyers to a superdreadnaught set sail from the huge base and headed towards the coast of Djibouti.

OOC: what tech level are the natives?

One tribe, a particular sect of Zulu, had chosen to fight.

As such, the Kiravians had to pacify them. And so it came to be that 500 Kiravians, armed with swords and guns, descended upon the Zulu warrior encampment of 300.

OOC: what tech level are the natives?

PT, oh and what is your colony's name?

OOC: Ta muchly, and haven't worked it out yet. Call it "Wolven Africa" for now

IC: The first any of the natives of Djibouti would know of the incoming Wolven forces would be if they looked to the sky and saw one of the recon jets for the taskforce streaking overhead. Although spy satellites had been diverted to the area, now the Empire of the Wolf was moving in force. The jets would check that none of the other powers were trying to control the airspace of Djibouti, and if so they would report back to the taskforce. Even now the first troop carriers were heading towards the beaches, sending beach dwellers screaming and running further inland.

So then Kosta Reiga was established. It's capital, New Belrosko, had already begun to flourish. The buliding of roads was underway, and farms were created and hired formerly unemploued workers. Governor-General Nikko Ladise was now the head of the nation, but keeping his promise, made the former leader of the nation mayor of New Belrosko. Already, harbors were built and posters were placed around the city, asking citizens 18 and older to enlist in the newly established Kosta Reigan Guard and in the Latislavic Armed Forces. Already there was a new feeling. Needless to say there was major riots, but the soldiers put a stop to it without killing anyone. Ladise promised the people that they would be protected by the law and that direst democracy would be established and that the new protectorate would be under the same constitution and have the same voting and election system as Latislavia.

The Armed Republic of Greater Headhunters lies claim to the lands of Sudan, Libya and Tunisia. Any who claim these lands risks war with one of the most dangerous nations in the world. If you do give our nation good terms we may be willing to change our claims.

Admiral Lexivale ordered his ships to land. The soldiers quickly sprinted forward securing the sorrounding lands. Planes had already began to drop equipment, tanks and supplies. Lexivale got his men to form a cordon of protection around the landing zone. These next few days were going to prove interesting.

OOC: If you took away my West Sahara claim for a reason of balance, could at least you give me with Tunysia?

[OoC: Sure]

OOC: If you took away my West Sahara claim for a reason of balance, could at least you give me with Tunysia?

OOC note 2: Those territories will actually be(on roleplay) independent nations, though following the same political-economic ideologies of Third Spanish States. Somehow like in a Commonwealth or more exactly, like in a Confederation

All was set. As spring approached, temporary granaries were unloaded and seeds were shipped to new farms, where farmers waited for the right day to plant. Meanwhile, Carilos's population peaked at 900,000 and stopped as the colony was almost unable to be sustained. The military was forced to spike its airforce and navy to the area to procted the new hustling-and-bustling colony.

OOC: Cookborough, plz update the map to show ghana as "disputed". that would be nice.

The battle was swift and violent, like a typhoon.

The Kiravians waited in a light woodland as the Zulu, having noticed them charged from their camp, spears in hand. When they got close enough, the Kiravians opened fire, felling the vanguard. But, contrary to the expectations of the Imperials, they kept coming, just charging, and charging, with no regard for tactic. In little time at all, they were clashing with the forces of the Empire face-to-face. The lightweaight yet strong alloy of the Kiravians' swords hit the seasoned, unforgiving wood of the Zulu's spear shafts.

Most modern armies are trained for the gun, to attack from a distance. But the Kiravians were also trained for the use of the blade and bayonet. They were first-class in that sort of fighting. Among modern militaries, it was an advantage. Among these Zulu, it was the only thing keeping the Kiravians alive.

Still, their skill was true, and the soldiers held their ground. Their commander, Major Rupert Stonefield, ordered them to advance. The Kiravians ran forward, guns blazing, hacking past the still-charging Zulu. But their retribution was to heavy even for the legendary warriors. The camp was attacked, and as the sun set, its remains were naught but a dying ember.

The Kiravians took heavier losses than expected, at eighty dead, one-hundred wounded. However, the KE always had mercy and took prisoners. the 100 or so Zulu warriors not killed in battle were captured and sent to the nearest administrative community.

Did you not read my last post? I just claimed Tunisia.

Here is the flag for Kosta Reiga.:)

Did you not read my last post? I just claimed Tunisia.

With all due respect, you and everybody else, it seems. Several people claimed it before you.

The Uir spread out in all directions. They marked borders as they saw fit but approached by any official they quickly apologized and marked the border where they were told. Soon all the borders of Uir Afirik were marked. Most areas had natives and the natives were given precedence. Uir did as they were told as they were just their to protect the area; atleast for now. They tried to be as cautionary as possible. The 'Majour' gave the flag to who appeared to be the King. He liked the design and hung it from the wall of his palace.

There was however a special area which was marked. As a sign of peace, it would be the adiminitered divison of Ru Anda. It was legally part of the colony however the Bloumans were allowed to administer it (adiminiter in Uir). This would give them an ally on the continent which would help in case of invasion by another imperial power or a native uprising far later on.

Spears, as a sign of good faith by the natives, were given to the Uir. The Uir pulled out their guns and fired a bullet at a tree. The natives were scared at first but given the gun they fired it at the tree. They seemed thrilled and then fired it at a rabbit who had happened to be nearby. The rabbit was killed and the natives tested that fact. Rabbit was had for dinner that night and the Natives were very happy. The village was along the coast in the south and it was called Daresalam by the natives and so the Uir called it that too and named it capitol.

IC: Private Savoli showed the native that a chocolate bar is for eating. The native didnt understand. The native just kept trying to use it as soap. Very brown and sticky soap. A crunch in the nearby brush sent the native into a tense, crouching position. Savoli readied his rifle and turned off the safety.

The loin roared as it lept out of the brush. Savoli fired. The loin kept coming shrugging off the shots. Savoli tried to move out of its path. To slow he knew he was dead. Suddenly the loin shrieked and began to thrash. Foam flecks flew out of its mouth. Throwing up dust and dirt in its death throes the loin heaved blood. When it did stop, its eyes had already begun to have that look that only dead things have.

Savoli looked at the carcass for a few moments. His attention was drawn to the neck, he saw a black barb pertruding from its throat. The native stepped out of the brush on his right, smiling. Perhaps these people do know something after all, thought Private Savoli.

I will fight them for it! :mp5:

Not a good idea.

OOC: Well, it's kind of hard to fight someone for it if it's disputed (I think) But if you do, do it in another topic, plz. This one is cluttered enough. :headbang:

I will fight them for it!

please, you may claim an area, but not one that large. An area more appropriate the size of your nation. May i suggest Somaliland?

OOC: This is after the Vante-Kroandon War is over, FYI.

IC:

Official Declaration:
From: The Free Republic of Vantanas
Let it be known to all nations great and small on this, the beautiful world of NationStates, that the Free Republic of Vantanas has laid claim to the region of Africa known as Cabinda by the natives. This colony, henceforth known as the Free Colony of Harvest, shall promptly be settled by the Vantanian people and turned into a trading centers for the various colonies, territories, and otherwise national dominions of Africa.

Cabinda

The golden coasts of the untouched wilderness stretched before the Vantanians as they sailed forth in their brilliance. The sapphiric waves broke gently on the bows of the Colony Class ships, which then hit the soft sandscape of the Cabindan shore. Unloading, the colonizers became clear. One of the three ships held convicts, to help do work on the Free Colony until there terms were done, or the work was done. The second ship was filled with Colonteers, or voluntary colonists, here to build themselves a new life. The final ship had business men, representatives from the League, traders, and other business people. They all emptied out onto the shores, and started getting to work building a city to call home.

For the most part, the interiors of Western and Southern South Africa had been pacified. Settlers now arrived in droves. Austro-Africa now had a population of 420,000 colonists. Governor Tealford had opened up several new territories inland for settlement. Still, many hopeful emigrants wiated in Kirav for the oppurtunity to arrive unto the rich, fertile soils of Zimbabwe.

please, you may claim an area, but not one that large. An area more appropriate the size of your nation. May i suggest Somaliland?

Historaclly speaking I am not claiming that much land. For the size of my nation its about half as much as I would normally claim in real life.

OOC: If Somaliland is still open, may I take it?

If not, Sudan. I'd like to know before I post a LOLWTFCOLONIZATION.

OOC: Cookborough, I realize that Blouman didn't claim anything unclaimed and that he is offline and should make claims himself and that I don't know him IRL and so can only possibly guess this but I think he would appreciate the uncliamed portion of Somalia.

IC:

The Majour, Majour Gurison, went hunting using rifles with the King. They went in an HMMWV on a 'safari' as some of the King's subjects called it. In Uir this means Place of Edible Juicy Objects but the Majour carried on. They hid in the grass near antelope and fired from about a kilometre away. Two of the shots hit and killed while the other 4 or 5 missed. It was good time spent in making peace and Antelope were eaten for lunch, medium rare for the natives, well done for the Uir.

Historaclly speaking I am not claiming that much land. For the size of my nation its about half as much as I would normally claim in real life.

Well, International Incident-ly speaking it is, sorry you'll have to make the claim smaller

OOC: Cookborough, I realize that Blouman didn't claim anything unclaimed and that he is offline and should make claims himself and that I don't know him IRL and so can only possibly guess this but I think he would appreciate the uncliamed portion of Somalia.

Everything is now claimed, I believe! RP post tomorrow.

OOC: Question first.

Whoever claimed all that blue didn't claim the Democratic Republic of the Congo, is it open? If yes, I'd like that instead of Sudan.

Fort Tanzania, Austroafrica Colony

The small outpost on the Zambian side of Lake Tanganyika, and the only Kiro-African settlement north of Zimbabwe,was embroiled in a fight for its survival.

The one-hundred Kiravian soldiers inside its walls fired into the horde of attacking Africans. Spears were hurled, and arrows fired, but it had no effect on the heavily armoured Kiravians behind their defencive walls. Still, if the defence slowed, the walls' only use would be to collect the blood of its inhabitants.

Éthyr Winterpine, the thermophobic soldier we met earlier, had forgotten completely about the tropical sun. He was too busy unleashing the fury of his machine gun at the advancing Africans.

The battle was won, but it was not the last. Within the week, twelve similar assaults were carried out on the tiny outpost far from the Cape.

If that is the case then your map is hardly accurate.

I will also then claim Benin and Niger instead.

Yes, well i do have other things to be doing and it was claimed just before you posted. What is the name of your colony?

All but three are spelled incorrectly, he lists what I'd assume to be Tanzania twice, and gets both the Republic and the Democratic Republic of the Congo even though he listed he wanted the Tananzia Republic of the Congo (which I'd assume isn't a real country.)

Governor Tealford looked out the window of his permanent office, overlooking the rest of the capital below. His new country was progressing well. The population had tripled to 900,000. Soon enough, it would be a million. "One million!" he thought. This colony, his pride, his dream, his country. It had been his paramount goal to build a Kiravian nation in Africa. And it had begun to come into being.

Porto Populi, colonization day 2

A message was broadcasted internationally:

Confederacy of Third Spanish States Communiqué

We formally recognize the independence of the recently established confederacies of Algerian and Tunysian communes by human settlers originated from our country with support of the native and will not in any way interfere in their democratic decion-making process, but we are engaged into a mutual protection pact for as long as they need it to remain safe and they are officially recognized as allies of the Confederacy of the Third Spanish States as well. All military forces sent to those territories with the first settlers are also now completely unattached from Third Spanish States army and considered as their own military forces. We shall also keep an open borders policy with those two young nations.
----------------------

At the same time, enchanted by the advertisements of a land free from the visual pollution of skyscrapers and with much more natural environments, 5,000,000 citizens, most of them from ideologies without majority support like Christian anarchists, mutualists, anarcho-capitalists and green anarchists, were flooding the harbor trying to book tickets to Algerian and Tunysian coasts.

"Please, accept a reservation for tomorrow and then take a hotel and visit some of the great tourist attractions of Porto Populi for the rest of this day, all our ships for today going to Algerian Communes and Tunysian Communes are full.", the unfortunate member of the Porto Populi Confederación Cooperativa de Viajes said, only accepting it in exchange of having a 150% boost in his part of the profits in detriment of the other ones parts for as long as the situation continues or as long such function isn't entirely automated, as he believe to be working much more than all other members then he shouted again through a microphone:

"You all can bookmark your tickets through the Internet!"

"All right, why didn't you tell us that before?", the grumpy man at his front asked

"I've been here for 10 hours nonstop now and I didn't have a lunch, that's why I can't remember such details, but now that you asked it, know what buddy? Damn that 150% boost that would allow me to buy a mansion like those Tienda del Coche greasy-handed mechanic-engineers with Ferraris! I'm going to suggest my cooperate friends to make booking available only through Internet immediately and I'm getting out of here!"

The man smiled then and left away. Soon the mob went away as well, now for those too stressed to remember of the Internet to have headaches trying to find an hotel with vacancies.

This day, about 500,000 colonists arrived at Algerian Communes and 200,000 at Tunysian Communes, among another load of supplies for building and agriculture, those colonists immediately switched their citizenships to become Tunysians and Algerians and logged in the still under construction EDDNets of those countries. No incident similar to Morrocco's one happened in them, fortunately.

------------------

Intensive Care Unit #0055, Morroccoan coast under diplomatic negotiation

Ahmed finally regained consciousness and felt happy and thankful for Allah to have been spared from death, as it seems burying himself as deep as he could into the sand reduced the impact from the artillery. He felt much pain as he looked around, also thankful he didn't lost his eyesight due to damage provoked by the strike from the infidels, and finally thankful as well to see his limbs were in one piece. He then observed his location, too weak to get up. He was in a room, with an oxygen mask over his face, and he could see other of his comrades at his sides, all wounded but for a huge stroke of luck none of them seemed to have lost their limbs either. He then tried to guess where he was. Morrocco wouldn't have a so well clean and well equipped health care unit, then he concluded with fear: he was at a ship of the infidel sodomites, and his mind feared they were only healing him to give his body conditions to support horrible experiments they would conduct on him. After agonizing for 10 minutes, a doctor came to check the wounded soldiers and noticed him:

"Thank God you regained conscience!", he said in Spanish as he took a radio: "Is our Morroccan Arabic specialist nearby?", and then he replied. "Good, send him to the ICU 0055, we have one of them conscious but he is frightened to hell and we need to calm him by explaining why we had no choice but to do that"

The doctor looked at Ahmed with a smile, and he interpreted it as a sadistic smile of an evil torturer towards his victim, and then stopped to demonstrate signs of fear as a sign of manhood, if he was to be killed through torturous experiments, he would still die with dignity, he thought, and then from Paradise laugh at his enemies burning in Hell. He then said in his language, slowly but aggressively:

"Allah shall judge you after your death infidel! And your guns shall not ensure you impunity"

The doctor replied in a calm and friendly tone of voice:

"I am not here to hurt you, I am here to help you, it's a pity I don't know your language or you mine. It's also a pity our first contact had to be with radical Shi'ites"

Ahmed simply stared at the doctor eyes for five minutes, and then another man reached the room and looked at Ahmed, saying at his language:

"Can you understand me?"

"Yes, infidel! You can use me for your brutal experiments, but I shall never surrender my will to you monsters!"

He simply said in a friendly manner, with a laugh

"What? Spend hundreds in resources with an unhealthy and near-dying man when we could kidnap a perfectly healthy one to do the same?"

Ahmed shrugged "Then why would you send your enemies to first-world class floating hospitals?"

The man face sounded sadder: "If I was around when all this happened, I could have avoided the conflict in the first place. We don't like to kill people unnecessarily or to let helpless people die when we can do something to save them, regardless of what they believe in or if they were fighting against us before, but anyway, congratulations, you fought very well." and frowned: "That child died, and she was still mostly innocent, if your leader didn't shoot against a child and against one of us nothing of this would ever have happened and we would live harmoniously!"

Ahmed didn't reply to the man comment about his leader, instead he asked: "Where are the others who were alive? I only see four men at my sides, where me and those four others the only survivors? And did the others came in one piece?"

"They are in other Intensive Care Units, and there are other 34 survivors beside you. Clever tactic to bury beneath sand, you also had a great part in saving your own lives. And fortunately, none of you lost any limb or eye either. Just some broken bones, nothing that won't recover after two months".

Then he finally asked:

"Are we prisoners of war?"

And the man smile widened:

"I'm seeing no war around here. You all will be allowed to choose your fates after completely recovered, maybe you could consider living among us? As long as you don't kill people for doing what you believe to be deserving of death but isn't actually harmful to society, you would do fine."

"Sajjad said the Jihad was a spiritual war, not a war of flesh. But what he asked us to do was a war of flesh"

"Look, Ahmed, you can call my people sodomites and yes, they like to do consensual sex on whatever way they prefer. But my people, or at least the great majority of them, is also much more compassionate and caring for others than many more religious nations. The true evil, I believe, is not to avoid following strict moral codes about sex, marriage or alike, but something called egotism, which lead men to build empires from the misery of many hapless others, that lead men to make war for nothing but wealth and spill thousands of drops of blood for a single drop of oil, that my friend, is the true enemy, and true harbinger of the Great Satan: egotism. If the Jihad is a spiritual war, it must be fought by breaking the ice from egotistical men hearts by giving major examples of human compassion and progress in the name of Allah, not through slaughter. If you spread such belief of a Jihad as a war of the spirit, maybe you could finally make the West respect the Islam and stop drawing their prejudices of bomb-wielding suicidal men over your faith"

Ahmed became angered again:

"So this is it! You are emissaries of the Great Satan trying to use me and my friends to spread heresy over Islam!"

"Ahmed, did you ever read the Koran?"

"No", he quickly replied

The man then took a book from a table nearby and smiled

"Once you are well enough to get up, I suggest you read it entirely before departing, I am sure it will enlighten your life"

Ahmed frowned "How do you dare to make a forgery of the Koran?"

The man calmly replied "It is not a forge, and if you suspect so much, you should then instead find an original one to read, but take it with you anyway, so at least it'll prove we haven't removed, added or manipulated a single word, and this book wasn't published at our country either"

Ahmed stared at the man "We shall see it"

The man nodded "All right, now I suggest you to relax and rest, you are still very wounded, those doctors will come regularly to change bandages and assist you should something unexpected happen to your health"

Ahmed then said "This look like a dream"

The man simply smiled and left, saying before "Farewell Ahmed"

Then Ahmed felt asleep quickly...

"Are the burial ceremony being prepared according to Muslim traditions?", Maria asked from her bed

"Yes, completely according their traditions and with one individual grave for each of their fallen", the medic replied

"And was it decided how much shall we send as indemnity to the families who lost their fathers in combat?", she continued

"200,000 mutualist credits per lost family member"

"What? Isn't that too much? Will it hurt our economy?", Maria asked

"Nothing is 'too much' for a human life, in fact it's priceless", the medic answered. And no, it won't hurt our economy, it's the people from Third Spanish States that are sending such money"

"I... understand", Maria replied, denying her utilitarian world view which would lead her to an endless debate against it.

"Plus, this should at least give us a chance of reducing the taint on our image for the natives and avoid international repercussions as well. Most here are moderate Muslims, and don't stone people to death for sodomy, they simply fine them and ostracize them should they do it repeated times, which is very rare. Well, they shoot criminals on sight though, but complaining about it would be pure hypocrisy and you know why", the medic said

"Thanks for clarifying, I didn't consider the big picture behind this decision", Maria said to the medic before laying on the bed again to recover from her wound.

OOC: 3 or 2 more alts on the way(Morroccoan Communes, Algerian Communes (http://www.nationstates.net/cgi-bin/index.cgi/page=display_nation/nation=algerian_communes) and Tunysian Communes (http://www.nationstates.net/tunysian_communes), or only the last two if the negotiations don't work out)

The Union of Police Stations (the government of SilentScope003) deplore this colonization of the peaceful region of Africa. Africa has always ruled itself for quite some time, and it is only now that these nations decide to just invade it and establish their 'colonies', obivously to 'opress' them.

It is true that Africans need civilizing. But invasion is not the way.

The only way to save Africa is to unite it together under a new nation: "The United States of Africa". This new nation will unite Africa together, letting it grow and prosper, and protect it from military occupiers. Africa, for Africans!

We declare this new state into existence and will hereby place it under our loving protection. This protection will ensure that the USA will not be conquered by evil, but instead, will be guided by a loving nation, who will respect the right for it to exist!

We are hereby talking with the leaders of Libya, Algeria, Morroco, and Western Saraha, on having them join up as founding members of the USA, uniting their defense policies together for the benieft of all. Anyone seeking to attack or destroy the USA will be met with the full warth of the SilentScope navy and the African population.

OOC:Hi,I was wandering if there are any territories left even small ones,I'd really like to join on this scramble!

IC:As a new nation in this avvair(affair) The United Socialist States of Nosorepazzau

Actually Cookborough I knew you had a part of Eritrea but there was a part of it that you hadn't claimed the section on the map where your colony surronds a gray area that was the section I was claiming I know it is not all of Eritrea but it was a part of it I got confused on the map a bit and so the bit I wanted to claim was the grey area that was within your colony

Thanks for your aid of assistance. In case of any attack, we will TG you as soon as possible for you to come with reinforcements.

OOC:What kinda rules for colonization are followed here(Congress of Berlin?,or something else?)(If nobody has claimed them I would like to take Sao Tome & Principe and if possible Reunion.)

What rule? You make a claim, some guy approves it, then bam, claim complete.

Of course, every single nation is now claimed, so the wars are about to begin shortly. At least until a new Africa is made.

OOC: Cookborough, I realize that Blouman didn't claim anything unclaimed and that he is offline and should make claims himself and that I don't know him IRL and so can only possibly guess this but I think he would appreciate the uncliamed portion of Somalia

Thanks Uiri that was a region I was trying to claim, once I realised that you had claimed my orginal claim while I was writing up my claim. I will RP in regards to the section that I have adminstrative control over within your colony soon, and yes you are correct myself having defacto status is safer and more peaceful for the both of us.

Sure i will reserve it for him

Thanks Cookborough I will like to have that part of Africa as my colony cheers, Will RP shortly on our arrival but for now the colony will be called New Landronan

What rule? You make a claim, some guy approves it, then bam, claim complete.

Of course, every single nation is now claimed, so the wars are about to begin shortly. At least until a new Africa is made.

Well,in that case I'll just stick to my policies and come along for the ride!:D(But however has Sao Tome & Principe I'll be more that happy to negotiate with them!)

The situation had begun to calm down in the area formerly known as Dijibouti as there was no evidence of large-scale effective resistance, and everyone from the commander of the expedition to the lowliest private began to think that perhaps this mission would be a success after all.

All along the coast, the natives had fled inland and five large cities were being constructed along the coast to house the hundreds of thousands of refugees and colonists that were being shipped from across the Empire and were scheduled to arrive in the next couple of days. As huge construction crews laboured night and day to finish the temporary accomodation, the Imperial Army patrolled along the coast and established garrisons along the roads built by Army engineers whilst the Navy had to wait offshore - their temporary harbour was arriving in the next wave with the colonists. Efforts were being made to reach the natives, and a few isolated groups had come to the Imperial troops looking to trade.

To ensure that they would not disturbed, small packs of Wulfen headed inland. These fast and lightly armed groups of soldiers were mounted in Ural trucks, and their job was to see if any of the foreign powers were in the area.

OOC: Yeah, Blouman I guessed that that was what you were trying to claim as Eritrea and Somaliland are similar in appearance the difference being mostly their area and their approximity to the Horn of Africa.

Doing the RP post here as there has been more than a page since my last post.

The Majour was made 'Protector' of the Colony and therefore was in charge of Foreign Affairs and Defense of the area. The Major explained this to the King as best as he could and then asked for a map of the King's Kingdom. The Kingdom corresponded to what is known as Burundi and Tanzani. Ru Anda and Ken Ya weren't in his duristintion and so the Major suggested some conquest was in order.

Sorry, has anyone claimed Mauritius? If not then can we have it? Also I'd like to discuss a freedom of navigation treaty with Kirav for the Limpopo, Save and Zambezi rivers. I think that it'll really open up that interior to trade, make communications easier for you- and of course be of benefit to my companies. In short Kiravian and Eurasian ships would have the right to sail as far as possible up or down these rivers for free (other countries would either be denied permission or charged a fee). The territorial areas of these waters would still be under the authority of our two respective local authorities. This treaty applies to commercial shipping from our two countries, but if you needed to send troops via these rivers to deal with problems in the interior then permission would be granted, given prior notice and provided the number of troops and ships were given to us before hand. The three ports of entry to the Limpopo, Save and Zambezi are, respectively, Xai-Xai, Machanga and Chinde.

Governor-General Nikko Ladise had now set up a Kosta Reigan National Assembly. He said that this would be comprised of 2 members from each village province, so to have equal representation. Already, Ladise had messaged PMR Rein Wilhelms about the success of taking over. Not only were they able to talk it over, but they had literally purchased the land for only 65 million knuts. Even Ladise was surprised at how low the former leader had bargined away his own country, but then again, Madagascar's former monetary unit was low compared to the knut. By his own calculation, Ladise figured that one madagascar dollar was equal to at the very least, five knuts and fifty centreme. The ports were now set up and ready to be built. Military and armed guard were stationed at what were thought to be "flashpoints." More armed forces came in the middle of the night and had set up an enscription office for any citizen who wanted to join. Surprisingly, this morning, 500 male citizens signed to join what would be established as the Kosta Reigan National Guard. If they joined the Guard, the only clause to it was that they would also be willing to serve in the Latislavic Armed Forces. Already, ships were coming into harbor, carrying hundreds of citizens and armed troops. Ladise's main goal was to bring the citizens along slowly but surely without resorting to bloodshed. So far, to his surprise, it was actually working.

The coasts of Mauritania and Dijibouti were now secure, and with the arrival of the second fleet both colonies now had working harbours and a large ammount of civillian colonists. Any native that had approached the Wolven personnel were welcomed with food and kind words, and by now many hundreds were employed in the work crews that were busy building the infrastructure of Wolven Africa. A large highway was being built along the coasts to link the various settlements, and now ground patrols were being backed up by Army helicopters that were launched from the new bases being built. Indeed, even units from the Air Force were beginning to arrive and land now that large runways had been built.

The cities and towns were still very basic, most of the residents lived in a mixture of cheap prefabricated barracks or tents, but portable generators were providing electricity until a power plant could be built. Clean water had been the first thing the engineers had tried to locate, and had tapped a series of springs and rivers to supply the thousands of colonists and soldiers that arrived.

So surailia, I assume you AREN'T giving me ghana? that sucks, I have to edit all my RP posts to sierra leone. :headbang:
OOC: Actually, can we just split Ghana? Much easier for me.

IC:

The population of the colony, peaked at ~900,000, held as gold mines opened to the world. Riches poured out on trucks as the city of Carik quickly grew into a metropolis of shaky, wooden buildings. Nearby coastal towns also quickly boomed, and soon, towns across the colony sprung up and quickly sized to over a 1000 people each. Spring was coming, and planting of some crops had already begun as food support from the homeland dropped off and was replaced by steady export. Diamond mines, originally planned for July, were already being prepared as excavation crews queried the local natives for good locations.

The natives, also, had intergrated incredibly well. Most merged into the boom towns and Carik, offering adivce and support to the thousands of people unaccostomed to desert life. Those that remained in their villages remained highly supportive, providing some of their landsfor military fortifications in excahnge for cheap, simple firearms. The easy intergration was later traced to an ancient empire that had once held territory there, and had idolized anyone that had superior technology.

Well,in that case I'll just stick to my policies and come along for the ride!:D(But however has Sao Tome & Principe I'll be more that happy to negotiate with them!)

Message FWD to President Aposon. Reply from President Aposon:

Roland, I do believe that the whole continent has been claimed, however, if you are lucky you may buy or conquer some of the continent for your claim. Best of luck to you.

Sorry, has anyone claimed Mauritius?

The island? No. Although I would be willing to make it a condominium with you. I saw the similarly named country in North West Africa and thought it was refering to the island. I know realize it is unclaimed. I am slow and so you may have it unhindered by Uir.

More IC:

The Uir soldiers marched across, back into Kenya. They soon came to a village and the natives, scared by the guns, quickly handed soveriegnity over to the King & Protector duo. Very quickly most of Western Kenya was conquered and even some of Uganda. Nairobi village however had a King within its walls. The treaties, written in Swahili and Uir, the two new official languages of the Protectorate of Uir Afirik. The King too signed the deal and the King of Tanzania, Burundi & Ru Anda was created as High King. They then moved to the East Kenya which was where they had landed but the coast had been their guide and so they needed to conquer that King to.

The process was swift and soon the Uir boundaries matched the boundaries of the High King's Kingdom. With the Protector they divided the Protectorate into Rejons. There were 4 in Uganda, roughly corresponding to the Kingdoms of the 4 Low Ugandan Kings. There were 6 in Kenya, three corresponding to the Western Kenya Low King's kingdom, the other three corresponding to the Eastern Kenya Low King's Kingdom. There were 20 in the High King's original Kingdom and one of them was the Unik Adiminitered Teritori of Ru Anda.

Democracy was not the goal of the 'Ruling Duo' as Uir and Swahili speakers alike called them in their respective tongues. A constitution was written for the Teritori basically leaving Internal Affairs to the King and External Affairs to the Protector. There were arrangements to displace the King by Uir and to displace the Protector by the Swahili although the King could re-instate the displaced Protector and vice-versa.

The Rejons were subdivided into Munisipalitis. There were too many to really count them, numbering in the hundreds although the framework for adiminiterason was set in stone. Aposon was informed of this and he was quite delighted in how things had gone and so the name was official: The Protectorate of Uir Afirik was officially a part of Uiri as Uiri was responsible for its Foriegn Affairs and Defense and that, by the UN definition, made it part of Uiri.

Behind his lavish ebony desk with ivory trim, the newly appointed governor looked over his Recent Census papers.

Unless the map is wrong the countries you control have very little oil and not too many diamonds either. Nigeria, Sudan, Angola are the main oil nations in Africa.

If there is still a place on that oil offer, Surelia, that then a group of Eurasian companies and then government are intending to form the Euro-African resource consortium (EARC) to exploit the resources in Mozambique and Swaziland. If this company could get permission to work on some of those oil fields then all the better. The government is getting involved in this mining-timber-fishery(-oil?) consortium for two reasons. 1) To get some money. (I may bit rated a socialist, I may even be fairly left wing in real life, but I'm not completely stupid.) 2) To ensure that this exploitation does not exceed the limits set by the Oversees Governance Council (the government department responsible for the rule of all Eurasia's overseas possessions).

IC:

The two new provinces of the Empire of the Wolf had new official names, albeit rather unimaginative ones in the eyes of much of the citizenry. To the west lay Western Wolven Africa, and to the east lay Eastern Wolven Africa.

With the coastline now thoroughly secure, armed convoys began to push further inland. With the local intel and mapping provided by the Wulfen units, as well as airborne surveillance, the convoys were able to move quickly. Troops in BRDMs led the way, with colonisation personnel and equipment following in trucks. More BRDMs guarded the convoy, driving to the sides and rear, whilst above them helicopters provided warning in case of an attack or obstacles, though so far no large-scale resistance had been met.

As well as these official efforts, there was also some commercial efforts to exploit the resources of the new territories. Under the guard of mercenaries from Wolfbite Inc., various prospecting companies began to search for precious materials.

Its understood that NS figures are Exaggerated Everything in the description of your nation is "off" at best and is mostly a lark....and since we are working with real world recourses my boast checks out, BOOM~

Senegal has no Oil, in RL it has a small refining industry of imported oil but it has very little of its own oil. And even in RL the rest of your countries barely have that much Iron and Bauxite either.

Harare, Zimbabwe

This city had gone by many names. The long gone British called it Salisbury. The succeeding regime, cleanisng away any mark of colonialism from its country, changed it to Harare. Now, it would become Saar-Rhodesia.

As the Kiravian 18th Legion's jeeps and tanks rumbled towards the city, their wheels and boots crunched over the dry, barren soil of Zimbabwe's dead land. Under the British, these soils had been Africa's breadbasket. With white ownership revoked, the land fell into disarray and mismanagement, and then to abandon.

Under the Kiravian Empire, the soils would be black and fertile once more.

The local dictator roused his army to prepare for an attack on his capital. Wielding foriegn AK-47's, with no armour, and fortified only by the thin walls of Harare's buildings, they were no match for the technologically sophisticated Imperial Army.

Messages were wired to the dictator, demanding his surrender. They were answered in the negative. the fate of the town in the savvanah was sealed. It would be crushed, like Bulawayo, Upington, Gaborone, and the other cities whose armies chose to fight.

Artillery fired from nearby hills, shattering buildings, driving defenders back. The Kiravians, covered by shell and reinforced by multiple tons of heavy metal on caterpillar drives, moved forward. The light an medium infantry led the assault, backed up by the GI's and the Mechanized units.

In no time, the conquerers had reached the edge of the haphazardly built city.

The battle for Zimbabwe was about to be decided.
