Colonization of Europe (MT, Open to all)

OOC: This thread will be based off of the ancient "Colonization of Africa" thread that I took part in (as Icovir).

Picture a blank map of Europe. A Europe that is ruled by tribes and clans and that has no organized government. Completely ignore all NS and real-life countries that exist in Europe. This Europe only exists for the purpose of this thread.

Now is your chance to colonize this continent. This will be an MT (Modern Tech) Role-play thread.

OOC:
Here's how it works:

I will first mark off each section of Europe. The borders of each section is based on the 2008 European map according to the United States (so it includes Kosovo). The map will also include Turkey, and will EXCLUDE all the small countries (eg. Vatican City, Monaco, Liechtenstein).

Next, you'll choose which section you want (eg. if Turkey is marked "1", you'll ask for section 1). I will mark your section USING COLORS (the continent is too small to mark it using words). I will make a key on the map so that you'll recognize your colony.

Afterwards, the map will be full. This is when role-playing comes in. You will run your European colony in any manner that you wish. You may sell your colony, invade other colonies, grant your colony independence, or just "be chillin'" on the European continent. Whatever you want (that the admins allow, of course).

Can the people of Acrela dominate the French? And Spain, if we're allowed two. :D (Section 14/12)

OOC: I'm interested in claiming the British Isles; though other lands like Russia are tempting as well. Is it possible to claim them both because I want to claim them.

So if I understand you right, this isn't so much of our nations colonizing (i.e. Claiming Spain in the name of Kurona) but it's more of like a tribal style like natural born tribes with tradition?

OOC: The Mephrasian Empire would be interested in claiming plots 23 and 8. If I can only claim one, I would choose 8.
Northern Rangeria
28-03-2008, 23:21
OOC: The Principality of Northern Rangeria claims plots 7 and 6. It's a matter of national pride for me to make sure my home country belongs to me :D

The Scandinvan Empire would like to lay claim to Estonia, Latvia, Sweden, Denmark, and Finland. Which is 6, 7, 24, and 25.

OOC: It's claiming the lands in the name for your nation. Think of it like the Colonization of Africa (in real life) and how they claimed certain areas "In the name of the British Empire" and such. So it is like your example, "Claiming Spain in the name of Kurona"

Afterwards, it's up to you if you want to RP your natural citizens, or kill them all and bring in your citizens, etc.

The leader of Wozmania would like to claim 30, 49, 2, 28, 44 and 48. As always

Hey Neo Ix can I have the rest of Britian since you have all of Russia?
Northern Rangeria
29-03-2008, 16:41
If it is acceptable, the Principality of Northern Rangeria would also like to expand their claim. In this case, to include plots 41 and 47.

Oh, and on a technical note... Cyprus is a country too.
Acrela
29-03-2008, 16:48
The Acrelan people wonder how long it is going to take for war to break out amongst these colonial empires...

1. I was hoping to keep my part of the British Isles as a link to Western Europe.
2. Jayate, do we RP here? Also, do I have all of Russia (including Siberia) or just European Russia?

No, I'll make another thread

But if you get into a full out war, then it's best to create another thread while linking it to this main thread.

I'm going to start RPing after I finish the map.

That, my friend, is what war is for.

True, but I would say it's in Asia (and not part of Turkey).

OOC: Thanks for the information, Jayate; but I need to know if I have only the European part of Russia or the entirety of Russia (which includes Siberia).

The entirety.

It does sound cheap lol

OOC: Thank you. Ixania does have Russian influences and it would be nice to have Russia as a colony. I'll get a post ready when I have the time.

OOC: Is it too late to claim #4?

I have troops mobilizing to there, but it's never too late to claim anything since you can just kill for it (not in real life, of course).

If possible, I would like to attain number four, or Belarus.



EDIT: I just saw there are people sending troops there. I'll be more than willing to fight for it...;)

I'll claim 30, 41, 44, 47, 48, 49 and 28 as well then.

By the latest map, neither Greece (47) nor Albania (41) is taken. The Empire of New Chalcedon claims them, as well as Crete, Cyprus and the Aegean Islands. We are, however, open to alliances and part-solutions in order to avoid all-out war.
