The Game[]

1983.50[]

Although much of central Mexico remains heavily infected, trade routes begin to be draw from the Yucatan west. However, currently there is no good land route from Mexico to Colombia.

The remnants of New York are annexed by the United States after negotiations with the state government.

The invasion of the Zanzibar natives into Dar es Salaam is successful. After a swift battle in which some of the town’s old guard and isolationist survivors attempted to hold back the raiders, the invaders managed to break inside the inner city. Ravaged by waves of infection and challenging military factions in the past, the city is desperate, and finally surrenders to the forces of the island.

After several successful raids in Arizona, including against the city-state of Tucson, the riders of the Apache Republic withdraw from their native lands to Hermosillo, where a non-nomadic lifestyle is taken up. 

Within the research facility of the Cureplex, a Commonwealth research team injects a Zombie with a dose of Phalanx. The Zombie appears to be frenzied, even berserk. After several days it is determined that the medication had no positive effect on the Zombie, and it is soon determined that this particular Zombie even had what many believe was an allergic reaction. Finally, the Zombie had one last outburst and attempted to rip itself apart.

Texans begin settling the western region of Texas. Much of Texas’ pre-apocalypse borders are restored, with the west and north, and parts of New Mexico, established at territorial status.

The Siege of Adana enters with EHU and American forces entering the city. The Turkish line is pushed as far back as Konya, meeting the already existing line at Kayseri.

EHU and Soviet forces push from Trebizond toward Ankara, hugging the coast for supplies and artillery. Within a few weeks the Soviets had entered Kastamonu, north of Ankara. The main line had surrounded Kayseri.

Soviet forces from Romania, after a swift campaign through Bulgaria, enter Thrace and begin cornering the city of Istanbul.

The rock group KISS officially appear in public without makeup for the first time on MTV. The Red Hot Chili Peppers launch their first, self-titled, album.

Soviet military officer Stanislav Petrov averts a worldwide nuclear war by correctly identifying a missile attack warning as a false alarm. (1983: Doomsday reference.)

Philippines opposition leader, Benigno Aquino, Jr., is assassinated in Manila.

French officials recognize the sovereignty of the English Channel nations to the north, opening trade with the coast. The area around Paris continues to be cleared.

ATTENTION: Mscoree will not be able to post moderator events this weekend.


Japan: Japan continues to build up the Self Defence Forces and infrastructure is improved. Some of the Maritime Self Defence Force still continues to patrol around Japan. Synthpop and Electro continues to rise in popularity. Some more Zen Taoist Temples continue to be built in Northern Japan. Tatsunori Katsumata continues writing the manga Amsterdam. Clean up and aid goes out for those affected by the earthquake and tsunami. The Republic of Kyushu is established as a vassal of Japan and its capital is Saga. Toshihiko Yokō becomes President of the Republic of Kyushu and begins to rebuild the island.

United Republics: The UR restores funding to URSA in anticipation of a URSA 17 rocket launch, the schematics and plan are finished, and closely resemble the Apollo 11 mission with a set of stages including a lunar landing stage. The most risky part is returning the lunar landing stage into lunar orbit and then return back to earth with the remains of the rocket. A test will be done in Antartida. Meanwhile, UR officials work tirelessly on the new ULN documents. Invite all nations to apply to join the ULN (all will essentially be accepted) [MOD RESPONSES!]. The ULN already has commitments from the UR, Brazil, Bolivia, Peru, Portugal, Granada, Confederate Islands, USA, UK, and Commonwealth to join. Infrastructure is continued to be expanded, and the the high-speed rail along the Atlantic is nearly complete. UR does contract its economy, slowing down the short term growth in exchange for long term stability. Propaganda is released to back this up. The UR intelligence agency makes contact with Turkish officials and wishes to bring a peaceful end to the Middle Eastern Conflict. Meanwhile, the UR continues to send supplies to Royal France and the UK to defend themselves. UR diplomats continue to create favorable relations with Bolivia and Spain. A meeting with Brazil is requested to discuss a trade agreement and defense [MOD RESPONSE]. Spain is once again invited to become an observer of the LAL [MOD RESPONSE]. Aid and supplies are sent to the colony in south Baja. The Republic of Baja and the Republic of Belize are asked to apply to the LAL [Mod Response], New Chan Santa Cruz is also invited to apply to the LAL. The colony of OTL Georgetown expands farther south and east. New Stanley also expands to 3000 permanent residents. A plan is drafter for New Stanley to fall under Falklands jurisdiction, thus giving it better representation within the UR. 

  • Japan Diplomacy: Prime Minister Yasuhiro Nakasone has no interest in joining another international organisation, and wishes to stay out of this.
  • Portugal: Infrastructure is built up. Industrialization begins. A military draft is implemented. 
  • Granada: Infrastructure is built up. A militia is created. 
  • RoS Diplomacy: We are willing to join the ULN.
  • Iran: The Persian Government would be interested in becoming a part of the ULN.
  • Falklands: We send engineers to New Stanley, and expand the base down, as the lower you are, the warmer it is in the Antarctic. They will be complete by 1985, and the colony will become energy neutral because we will make even deeper ones for Geothermal energy, so no energy will be drawn from other nations, and none will be spare for other nations use.

Central Italy (Kingdom of Italy): Infrastructure is built up and our border is fortified. We invite all nations of the Mediterranean to join the Roman Federation - an EU-style government where you keep as much sovereignty as they have in the EU. The Kingdom of Italy is also looking for allies. (PS: I don't get this map game. Can someone help me? Octivian Marius (talk) 02:16, May 17, 2013 (UTC))

Hello, this Reximus55 (talk), and I play the Confederated Islands. We are a powerful nation that is currently helping you to invade Rome. (We actually started this before you signed up). You are in fact invited to join the Confederated Islands, and it will be renamed to the Mediterranean Confederacy. Please consider joining!

Texas: Cuts all ties with the ISAF and the United States. It orders all foreign nations to withdraw any remaining troops in the country. The government announces plans to transition into 'self-sufficiency'. Meanwhile, Hispanics are flocking to western Texas and New Mexico to escape discrimination. The military pushes an aggressive campaign of expansion, capturing an area ranging from Las Cruces to Roswell. Tanks patrol the streets, ready to blast any Zombie in sight.

  • United Republics Diplomacy: Asks to meet with a Republic of Texas Diplomat concerning relations as well as the ULN, LAL, and racial discrimination within the country. (OOC: can you get on chat?)
  • Texas Diplomacy: We agree to begin discussions. We shall send an ambassador to Santiago.
  • RoS Diplomacy: The Republic of Susquehanna would like to keep good allies such as Texas, and offer an alliance outside of the ISAF.

Commonwealth: Research and development and testing on Zombified wildlife with a modified version of Phlaxicortin-X begins. Continues development and expansion. The scientists doing the work on the Zombies are not allowed outside of an ultra-secure perimeter and access to the cureplex is heavily restricted. 1000 military personnel are stationed at the complex at all times. The New Zealand project continues. Dubstep becomes the third most popular music genre in the Commonwealth, and performers begin to appear at bars.

I don't think Dubstep should be existing yet. It didn't form until around the late 1990s, if I'm not mistaken. See here for more info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dubstep -Kogasa Miko THPW2 Flag of Europe 2013 May 18, 22:22 (CET)

I'd say it would be a really really really really really really retrofitted version of it, not like we see today. Also, it isn't really a big influence on the people other than parties and stuff Canada2hy Hypothetical Alberta Blue Ensign Flag of Australasian team for Olympic games OreoToast555(Talk) 20:00, May 19, 2013 (UTC)

Confederate Islands: The Governatore continues in his long-term attempts to get Malta, Sicily, the Balaerics, and more small nations to join his Confederation. MOD  We increase our navy. Our attempts in Rome continue, and we are soon able to set up a city of Sardinians to lead the land of Rome. We also join the ULN as Sardinia, Corsica, Crete, and Rome.

  • CI Diplomacy: We request transfer of Granada and Portugal to the CI, which will then be renamed the Confederate Mediterranean, and will act as a protectorate of the UR, and its European branch.

Republic of Susquehanna: With support from UIC and Soviet troops, the RoS military storms Istanbul, and captures the territory. Work on the aircraft carrier is complete, and interior work begins. Plans are to launch in 984. Seven AH-1 Apaches are complete, along with ten AT-1 troop transports, two Type 209 submarines, and nine 1A4 Leopard tanks.

Work begins on a military base on Socotra with an airfield, port and military barracks. The capital city is named Hadibu. A civilian airport is constructed to give easy access to the mainland. Farms are constructed, and the government ensures that Socotra's natural beauty is preserved by setting aside land for a natural preserve.

The National Guard annexes the counties of Luzerne, Snyder, Clinton, and Carbon County. Plans are to expand to the East Coast by 1985. A defensive wall begins to be built around the nation of concrete walls topped with barbed wire, glass shards and steel blast doors with guard towers on every entry road, and soldiers patrolling every tenth of a mile. The wall is built around the current controlled counties. (Minus Luzerne, Snyder, Clinton, and Carbon Counties).

Navy upgrades to 1.25.

  • RoS Diplomacy: We ask to join the ULN, and are willing to provide aid to found it. The republic though, asks that the headquarters be in a neutral nation.

That would require war with the United States first. 

Oh, Sorry! I didn't know the US controlled that yet.

CSH: With the recent increase of stability, Many believe that the CSH is one of the happiest countries in the world. With the recent finish of the Caribou Bridge, the unemployment rate has dropped. Also a new movement is becoming popular in the government, Plans to incorporate Greenland, and possibly Iceland into the CSH are being debated by the State's governments. Also, A payment of 35 million dollars is sent to the United States. (We owe 160 million, including interest.) 

  • RoS Diplomacy: The RoS is interested in supplying military equipment to the CSH to provide it with an adequate defenses in exchange for allowing the RoS to build a naval base in Liverpool.

Chan Santa Cruz: The government lays claim to all of the Yucatan Peninsula, Guatemala and Belize. However, they hasten to add that they still recognise Guatemala and Belize. The claim allows for either nation to join at any point in the future, on into eternity, if they so wish. With Trade bringing in ammunition and guns the government begins drafting Operation Paybe (Mayan for Guide) to clear a link to the Panama Canal and a follow up Operation Balam (Jaguar) to clear South Mexico . We ask for ISAF help in these operations.

  • RoS Diplomacy: The RoS is committed to the Turkish operations, and is unable to spare any extra military personnel to this liberation - maybe in the next few years.

France: The moon city continues to develop and is now the size of Russia.

Mscoree has crossed out all of your moon city/New Paris posts. Also, it is implausible to expand a city on earth that quickly, let alone on another celestial body. G greg e (talk)

Iran: The Iranian military expands, as the King once more appeals to Iraq, Israel, Turkey, and Saudi Arabia for trade agreements. In other news, the Iranian Intelligence Agency (IIA) is founded. 

  • RoS Diplomacy: We would like diplomatic contact with Iran.

You're at war with Turkey currently.

South Africa: The number of pregnant women continues to rise as more children are born. The Plan continues into Stage Two. The large reservoir and canal network brings more water into previously ungrowable areas all around South Africa. A larger number, and more importantly larger variety of crops is grown. Extension of the water network continues too. A large amount of water continues to be brought to northern deserts. Trees planted to create new forests and jungles grow much better with reservoir water helping their growth. Construction on the biggest reservoir continues as its coated with cement and concrete to help keep the reservoir shape and so it does not collapse in on itself. The artificial hills become larger as more land is added onto it, and grass helps to solidify the shape of the hills. A huge amount of jobs is provided by the reservoir and an economic boom continues. Gold being extracted helps to pay for the refurbishment and bettering of factories. Tank factories continue churning out Cheetah I in smaller numbers and five hundred more are delivered to the Army. The Cheetah 2 continues production and one thousands of the tanks are delivered to the Army. More animals are secured and animal numbers have improved. Thousands of classes continue, as people who cannot speak the languages learn how to do so. More Suburbs are completed and opened to sale to the general public. The children begin to convince parents that racism is bad. Blacks continue to marry into different ethnic groups, continuing to blur lines. A large amount of state schools are constructed and more children are educated. The army is trained up to be even better, with the tanks and troops training together. A smaller, second reservoir network begins construction in the new northern areas of the nation. They will use water from the larger existing reservoir network to start off the flow of water. Relations with the Dutch continue to improve. As relations grow closer, talks of an equal union for the growth and protection of both nations' economies and militaries continues. The Netherlands also continue to expand their influence in surrounding areas. A large number of Protestant missionaries convert a large part of the remainder of the population of Belgium into the ways. Mass production of phalax starts in selected factories, which are under direct military control, with thw produced drug being distributed all around the army for deployment if there is a need. The country also launches expeditions to the Eastern coast of Africa. They make landfall in former areas of Ethiopia, Somalia and the former British colony of East Africa.

Austria: The vast industrial renewal program continues as work on the upgraded Bundesstraßen (Austrian autobahn) system from Vienna to the Austrian Alps, continues on schedule. The Nationalist forces and Emperor continue a large military build up in preparation of the invasion to take out Liechtenstein and all of the "rebels".

Northern California: Now, some of the area cleared by (Lt James) Grant's expeditionary force (later called CUAZEF, or Californian Unification and Anti-Zombie Expeditionary Forces) was later annexed to Northern California proper. Later, the CUAZEF forces attacked farther south, consolidating and driving out the Horde from the area, and proclaimed satellite administration from Stockton. On the domestic front, a Fascist organization, known as the Legion of the Iron Shield, or simply the Iron Shield, rises to popularity in the country. By July of 1983, about 40% of the regular army commanders and a whopping 54% of the CUAZEF commanders were members of the Iron Shield. At first, President Hummerton tolerated them, but later attempted to suppress them, because of their majority in his government. Elections were held in April, and the Iron Shield won a landslide victory. As a result Iron Shield chairman Louis Pittankel became premier, and Hummerton went into exile. Pittankel later took over the presidency, and became president and premier at the same time. He later formed a new government, suppressed all opposition, suspended civil liberties, imposed strict censorship, slaughtered hundreds of dissidents, landing oppositon leaders to jail, and decreed the formation of a single-party state.

Situation- 1983

Area annexed by Northern California shown in lime.

Isle of Wight: Wight focuses its efforts on becoming self-sufficient. A new administration is formed; an elected local council representing all the areas of the island. The industry is promptly declared state-owned and the tourist industry is disbanded. Tourist industry workers are drafted into agriculture and the newly-formed Wight Defence Force. Plans are created to make Parkhurst Forest, Brightstone Forest and Combley Great Wood into sustainable sources of timber. Capable boats not used for fishing are taken by the state and assigned to the newly-formed Wight Coastal Defence. A group of residents in Newport, the capital, decide to form a paramilitary force called the Newport Militia. These plan to fight for the state in times of war without a salary but are nevertheless part-time farmers and government officials.

  • RoS Diplomacy: We offer the Isle of Wight an alliance.
  • Isle of Wight Diplomacy: The Isle of Wight would agree to a mutual defense treaty but nothing more.
  • RoS Diplomacy: We accept, and send you 2000 M-19's, two AH-1 Apaches, and three AT-1's. We also invite you to join the ISAF.

Wu: The army continues pushing into Yue territory. Infrastructure is improved and it asks to join the ULN. Once again asks the mods to make an algorithm for the Battle.

If you want someone to do that algorithm for you, you need to include more information, i e, number of troops, location of the battle, battle plans, etc. "The more detail the more likely you'll be successful."  G greg e (talk)

Mexico: After many years in hiding, members of the Mexican government begin to re-group at Fort Mexico in Mexico City, one of the few strongholds to hold out against the Zombie attacks. Fort Mexico currently holds only 100,000 men as soldiers and no civilians but contact is established with the many fortified villages surrounding the fort. An international aid request is sent out (please sign below if you wish to help). The standard anti-Zombie fort consists of a high concrete wall topped by electrified razor wire and fronted by stake-filled ditches with watchtowers at regular intervals. Each watchtower has a high powered search light, a heavy machine gun and a security control monitor. These monitors review the information sent back by the motion detectors, CCTV cameras, heat sensors and security cameras. The gates are made of solid titanium and can only be opened from inside at the Central Security Center. The titanium has a layer of electrified metal in front of it and is topped by electrified barbed wire. On either side of the gate are two concrete control towers  with plexiglass windows and high powered flood lamps. Inside this perimeter wall is yet another identical wall followed by two electrified barbed wire fences, ten feet high and topped with razor wire. Finally, inside these are rows of concrete bunkers and lines of tanks and weaponry. Everything in the base is done underground in these sealed underground bunkers. Every door is made of six inch titanium and the single door on the surface and the doors between the bunkers are made of two foot thick titanium doors, each with 112 different locks.

  • RoS Diplomacy: We invite Mexico to join the ISAF.

1983.75[]

Japan: Japan continues to build up the Self Defence Forces and infrastructure is improved. Some of the Maritime Self Defence Force still continues to patrol around Japan. Synthpop and Electro continues to rise in popularity. Some more Zen Taoist Temples continue to be built in Northern Japan. Tatsunori Katsumata continues writing the manga Amsterdam. Clean up and aid goes out for those affected by the earthquake and tsunami. The Republic of Kyushu continues to rebuild the island. Meanwhile, a few Japanese begin to travel to Qui Nhon, Vietnam and establish their own settlement there, and soon the colony of Miyako is established.

United Islamic Caliphate: The nations infrastructure is restored to 75% through the current public works program, bringing the industry level to 0.75. A workers union develops however, due to a decrease in pay, and so noticeable progress to restoring infrastructure has stopped as they go on strike. 15,000 volunteers from the military reserve are sent to Djibouti to aid in reconstruction efforts to show the appreciation of the UIC for Djibouti joining the UIC. The first court system is developed. It consists of five judges per region in the UIC and are appointed by the Caliph, and are to be confirmed by the Council. The judges are then allowed to pick their own jury in every case that involves a jury, as long as they are born in the region they serve, and are Muslim (Women can be chosen, but rarely are by the judges).

  • RoS Diplomacy: We offer to aid the UIC in reconstruction.

Commonwealth: A modified version of the Phlaxicortin-X is tested on the second Zombie (RNG Failure/Success). Dubstep continues to be popular. Continues development and expansion, navy reaches 2.5.

Republic of Susquehanna: Work continues on the base and naval facilities on Socotra. The aircraft carrier is complete and Christened the RSS Resolute. Along with it, one destroyer, three cruisers, and two submarines, and six F-12's are finished. They are put into a task force together, and are deployed to the UR. The defensive wall is complete, and the army score is raised another 0.25.

Upgrades of scores are by 0.25 G greg e (talk)

Sorry, my bad, I didn't realize I missed typing the 2. Daeseunglim (talk) 21:14, May 18, 2013 (UTC)

Isle of Wight: Wight shuts its borders. Refugees and immigrants are refused, coastal defense boats are deployed at four different locations of the island: North base (East Cowes), west base (Totland), south base (Chale) and east base (Bembridge). Their primary task lies in intercepting boats and ships carrying unwanted non-islanders who seek safety on the heavily guarded island. However, trade is necessary for resources such as petrol, so the Fishbourne ferry port is still open to merchants, traders, diplomats and the like. However, they are not permitted to leave the port which is surrounded by barbed wire and watch towers garrisoned 24 hours a day. Wight can offer wool, cattle, sheep, chicken and other goods and livestock as exports The guards are equipped with rubber suits, gas masks to protect themselves from any contaminated visitors. The council also bans cars and stops any public transport because they waste fuel and energy. Electricity is also carefully rationed. Military and paramilitary is heavily trained in guerrilla warfare, defense against amphibious invasions and more personal skills such as in firearms and melee combat. Each soldier is issued with a shotgun or assault rifle, as well as an axe. Army score is raised 0.25.

Texas offers assistance to Mexico in exchange for permission to settle in what used to be Coahuila, Nuevo León and Tamaulipas. For the time being, expansion into New Mexico continues. They get as far as Carrizozo. A large-scale operation to relocate survivors back into Texas begins. To facilitate the operation, the Military is upgraded by 0.25. In an incredibly close vote, Texas Legislature agrees to ally outside the ISAF with the Republic of Susquehanna. The Know Nothing Party is seeing a resurgence, taking a highly xenophobic slant many aren't pleased by. Bidal Aguero, former Libertad leader, clamors for the banning of the KNP and restoration of civil rights. His cries are unanswered.

East African Federation: After conquering Dar es Salaam, the military moves to purge the city of any Zombies or potential converts, killing many of the creatures during the night. Though hundreds are lost in the endeavour, the military succeeds in clearing the city of the plague. Recruitment drives are launched in the liberated territories, and 350 men and women are sworn into the East African Armed Forces. The country prepares for an offensive on the old city of Tanga, sending scouts north to detect the location of Zombie forces and survivor militias before making the move to attack. The industrial base of the nation is upgraded by 0.25.

Centeral Italy (Kingdom of Italy): The Prime Minister begins orders for men to sneak into Zombie territory and ransack abandoned houses and museums for treasure. When asked about it by members of the press he simply said "Let's not look at what was lost, let's look at what can be saved." Also, the military is put into full gear for the liberation of Rome and maybe all of Italy under the kingdom's banner in the coming years. (No invasion of any country -- Yet.) What is my military score and I want to increase it.

Wu: Asks for a renewed alliance with England, Germany, USSR and the Commonwealth. Goes to 3 in Industrial score due to lumber and other resources found and mined. Japanese companies begins entering Wu for cheap labour. Asks to join the United Cure Organization again. Asks United Republics and the Confederate islands for an alliance. Declares war on Yue and asks mod to make an algorithm.

Wu's Battle Plan of invading Yue

Involves: 100,000 Wu soldiers, ten Zhilong submarine, the entire Wu Air Force, four Qiguan class Destroyers and one ZhengHe aircraft carrier

Casus Belli: Terrorist attack and to build an old country (Chinese culture)

  1. A fake bomb goes off in the parliament of Wu
  2. The President accuses Yue for bombing Wu, some people doubt the truth, but most people agree and propaganda increases.
  3. The ten Zhilong-class submarines attack the largest navy port of Yue, they are assumed to die, but the mission priorities are to sink as many navy vessels as possible. If a part of the fleet survives, they continue to attack the five major ports of Ningde, Foochow, Xiamen, Putiang and Chunchow.
  4. 50,000 soldiers attack Ningde as a diversion attack. 
  5. After a week, the four destroyers, with 10,000 soldiers accompanying each land in the ports of Foochow, Xiamen, Putiang and Chunchow.
  6. The ships destroy the city and allow the soldiers to land in the cities.
  7. Give food to the people as a way to say we come in peace.
  8. 10,000 soldiers will be left in Wu as a preparation.
  9. If the 50,000 are beaten back--> The 10,000 in Wu will round up the remainder as the 40,000 will attack them from the back. Then, the preparation army in Wu will strike from the front, crushing the Yue army in a two front war.
  10. If the 50,000 succeeds--> the army will roll into Yue

Chan Santa Cruz: With major operations on hold until the war in Turkey is complete, the military focus on training upgrading by 0.25. a slight expansion takes place, reaching Campeche.

Confederate Islands: The Governatore encourages local governments to work on our navy, and it increases by one. Our nations of Sardinia, Corsica, Crete, and Rome all send troops to continue the liberation of Rome, which is going really well. We invite Malta, Sicily (He's been inactive, so can mods make him mod controlled?), the Balaerics, Granada, Portugal, and Central Italy to the "Confederate Mediterranean" successor state of the CI. MODS and G Greg G

  • Central Italy: We accept.

United Republics: Development on a lunar landing project continues. UR colony Georgetown expands up to the Amazon forest. New Stanley continues development in an attempt to build the main infrastructure of the town below the ground. Major energy companies begin to buy into the solar industry within the UR. Industry increase 0.25 bringing the UR Industrial score to 2.25 (2.0 military, 1.5 navy). UR hears the Confederate Islands request and conducts a poll to those in Portugal and Granada. Results pending. The UR Atlantic high speed rail is fully complete ranging from Mar de Plata to Maldono. Santa Cruz and Paraguayan infrastructure continues to be developed. A large port begins to be built west of Santiago. The UR requests that all nations apply to the United League of Nations immediately. Furthermore, the UR sends an expedition team to OTL Cayenne.

  • Portugal: Navy continues to be built up (raises score to 1.25?)
  • Granada: Infrastructure continues being built.  

United States: With the war in Turkey coming to a close, we begin withdrawing soldiers back to the United States. The remaining forces begin pushing toward Ankara, aiding the EHU and Soviet forces. New York is officially annexed, and peacekeeping soldiers are sent into the north of the state to help restore order. Following the moderate success of the Vulcan missions, and of the Space Shuttle Columbia launch, which was launched in 1981, the Space Shuttle Columbia is launched.


1984[]

After numerous raids and almost falling into complete chaos, the city of Tucson is rallied and unified, claiming to be the true nation of Aztlan.

The city of Mogadishu is secured by a powerful warlord, who restores the city and claims to be the successor to the Somali government. He manages to secure much of southern Somalia and parts of Ethiopia into one nation.

After much fighting, the majority of Lazio, including the city of Rome, is cleared. Italian soldiers continue to push north.

The government of Sicily offers the Confederation Islands a deal, stating that they will hand over Sicily in exchange for the occupied sections of the mainland so they can restore Rome as the Italian capital.

Japan: Japan continues to build up the Self Defence Forces and infrastructure is improved. Some of the Maritime Self Defence Force still continues to patrol around Japan. Synthpop and Electro continues to rise in popularity. Some more Zen Taoist Temples continue to be built in Northern Japan. Tatsunori Katsumata continues writing the manga Amsterdam. Cleanup and aid continues for those affected by the earthquake and tsunami. The Republic of Kyushu continues to rebuild the island. Sega begins plans to create another console. The colony of Miyako begins to expand more into Vietnam.

Commonwealth: Another nuke is tested and an ICBM is tested, launched from Darwin, and splashes down 425 km northeast of Fiji. Fiji and Guniea are incorporated as territories, and the Australian Northern Territory is incorporated as Northern Australia. Development and expansion continues. I Still need an RNG for last turn's request.

The RNG was already done two turns ago.

Different RNG, read the commonwealth's post from last turn

Falklands: We start to send our civilian population to New Stanley, as we wish that the Islands themselves become training camps for the military. We begin to turn the West Island into an agricultural development zone (food production for New Stanley), and the east into a training camp. The civilian population will have moved completely by 1990, as we will use the intervening time to expand New Stanley to be able to fit the entire population into it, underground.

Central Italy: In preparation for war the navy's score is increased. Then we make a proposal to the united Mediterranean confederation for the occupied lands. We will create a vassal called the Roman Republic for the city of Rome. Central Italy will get all that is south and the CI will get all that is north. I also have a proposal for a Mediterranean Confederation invasion of Sicily.

Central Italy is an extension of Sicily, and it makes a lot more sense to follow the Sicilian proposal, with you controlling all of the mainland. 

But we declared independence and are now a Kingdom under the house of Savoy. I am working on another fan fic on our independence and grudge.

There are three factions of Italy, which are Sicily - the former government of mainland Italy, the Kingdom of Italy - royal family that control Naples area, and the Confederate Islands, who control the region of Lazio. G greg e (talk)

Texas expands into and Albuquerque. Sadly, a decision to make a right turn at the city led a platoon of soldiers right into a horde of Zombies. One of only two survivors was quoted as saying, "We... We should've taken that left turn at Albuquerque..." To prevent another tragedy, the military is upgraded by 0.25. Back east, the Know Nothing Party continues to thrive. To combat the growing threat, Bidal Aguero and a group of disgruntled Hispanic-Americans clamor for a reunion with the United States. The two forces oppose each other. 'Know Nothings', as they're called, burn down Aguero's old home while he's in prison. The act goes nearly unpunished by the local police.

Santa Fe is an independent city-state, the whole retro thing, means that to expand there you need to conquer them, or somehow assimilate them  G greg e (talk)

I completely forgot! Santa Fe can wait. Doctor Evulz (talk) 01:46, May 20, 2013 (UTC)

  • RoS Diplomacy: We offer condolences to the families of the lost soldiers, and offer to trade Texas 20,000 M-19 rifles for ten river patrol boats.

United Republics: Georgetown continues to expand in population, many natives, finding a settlement there are offered to begin trade, however, borders of Georgetown and its countryside remained under careful watch. Cayenne settlement is established. The UR announces that New Stanley is to be capped at 5000 people right now, and supplies are sent to begin the development of creating better and warmer housing - and technologically cheaper - for the 2000 people there now, expected to be complete by early 1985. Lunar experiments continue with a launch expected late this year. The goal being to put a man on the moon. Alfonsin's term as President is almost over. Much of the world looms over who is successor will be and how it might affect the UR. ALL NATIONS ARE INVITED TO JOIN THE UNITED LEAGUE OF NATIONS. Some pioneers from Santa Cruz travel northward into the Amazon. 

  • Portugal: Naval continues increases. Industry begins to be established.
  • Granada: Roads, buildings and public service buildings are complete. Granada begins to establish small militias. 

Las Vegas: Although, clear the city suffers from sporadic infestation due to the lax practices of the Mafia controlling the city. When a mafia meeting although secure, is breached by infected a Civilian government takes control of the city to try and improve. Military is improved by 0.25 to try and secure the city for good.

Northern California: Asks for alliance with the with Cascadia (the Northwest Federation). President Pittankel again dispatches a note to the Bay Republic to join Northern California. The note was rejected and Pittankel declares war on the Bay Republic and asks mod to make an algorithm.

Northern California's battle plan of invading the Bay Republic:

Involves: 400,000 Northern Californian foot soldiers, 80,000 tanks, 69,000 jet fighters (mostly MiGs used in the 1981 coup), 40 destroyers, and 19,000 Black Hoods commandos.

Casus Belli: Political Blunder and to forcefully annex this smaller state as a part of unifying California under Pittankel's rule.

  1. The Bay Republic rejects Eureka's demand to join us.
  2. A group of North Californian officers, disguised as journalists, plans to assassinate Virgil Baal, the leader of the Bay Republic, which was successful.
  3. The 'Black Hoods' pours into the territory of the enemy.
  4. About 50,000 regular and 5,000 CUAZEF foot soldiers massed around the bay, awaiting command. 
  5. The North Californian destoryer 'R.C.S. Modoc enters the bay, preparing to shell the city of San Francisco.
  6. Foot soldiers began attacking the city of San Mateo.
  7. San Mateo is captured. San Jose falls eight days later.
  8. Distracted, Bay Republic militias retreated to Oakland in the north, and to San Francisco in the south.
  9. North Californian MiGs launch air strikes on Oakland and Alcatraz.
  10. The North Californian destroyer R.C.S. 'Modoc confronts the B.R.S. Good Omen in a naval battle. It ends in a stalemate.
  11. In three months, North Californian forces already occupied all the Republic's territory except San Francisco and Alcatraz.
  12. Finally, North Californian troops enter the city and pulled down the the Bay Republic's flag, and the next day President Louis Pittankel declares the Bay Republic part of Northern California as the province of San Francisco.
  • RoS Diplomacy: We offer an alliance with North California, and are willing to send supplies.
  • Northern California: We accept your offer.

​Confederate Mediterranean: The CM, as the CI is now called, is officially established as the successor state to the Confederate Islands. They are currently leading the Invasion of Italy to clear if from Zombies. We ask the Kingdom of Italy to change its name to Savoy Naples, in order to prevent further confusion between Italian states. I agree with Greg's analysis of Italy. We want to create a UR-type government in the Mediterranean. They are all culturally similar, so we invite Malta, the Balaerics, Sicily, Granada, Portugal, Spain, and France (by ceding Mediterranean lands) to join. If we all band together, we will be unstoppable.

Austria: The vast industrial renewal program continues as work on the upgraded Bundesstraßen (Austrian autobahn) system from Vienna to the Austrian Alps, continues on schedule. The Nationalist forces and Emperor continue a large military build up in preparation of the invasion to take out Liechtenstein and all of the "rebels".

Republic of Suquehanna: The RoS incorporates the captured territory in Turkey as a state. A barbed wire fence is installed outside of the concrete wall for defense, and is electrified. A bunker is built in Socotra. An amphibious assault ship is planned, and another five Type 209 submarines are delivered. Another rocket is launched, this one taking another communications satellite.

Why can't I have the captured territory?Daeseunglim (talk) 17:19, May 20, 2013 (UTC)

You did take most of Thrace and the Istanbul region, however you need an algorithm to take Istanbul. Even if you did have this region completely, you can't annex it in this manner as this is implausible and against the rules.

Do I control it?Daeseunglim (talk) 18:30, May 20, 2013 (UTC)

You are occupying it.

United States: The majority of US forces are withdrawn to Cyprus or the United States east coast. The US navy is deployed from Cyprus to the coast of Turkey to patrol the coast in assist in sieging the remaining Turkish strongholds. US specialists and aircraft assist in the final push toward Ankara, which has descended into chaos. We ask that the belligerents of the war sit down for formal peace negotiations.

1984.25[]

In southern New Mexico the local survivors create the nation of White Sands, centered around Las Cruces. The nation, which is battle hardened from the Zombie assault from Juarez, reaches from Route 25 in the west to Ruidoso in the east.

No, Texas took Las Cruces in 1983.50. Doctor Evulz (talk) 22:29, May 20, 2013 (UTC)

Mostly as an un-associated territory and from people settling on the frontier (like past the Appalachians in the late 1700's).

Futura continues to grow, with almost all of the town’s population converted to the retro culture. The cultural revolution continues, spreading propaganda and media across Santa Fe. The city is isolated from the outside world. Despite the retro futuristic design of Santa Fe, the nation reaches out to the Tesuque and Pojoque Indian reservations in the north, adding the citizens of the north as valuable members of the nation. Scouts from the city set up barricades south of Santa Fe National Forest, creating a roadblock at Glorieta, blocking Route 25, another at La Cienega, and one blocking traffic from the north at Espanola.

the city of Tucson establishes its new borders south of Phoenix, and reaching the Mexican border. After the raids from the Apache Republic, there is much anti-Apache sentiment from the city’s locals, who turn away many refugees who show signs of native heritage.

The nation of Painted Desert is founded in northern Arizona, encompassing the entirety of the Navajo, Hopi, and Ute Mountain Indian reservations. The nation was founded as an alliance between the native communities of the area, serving as the successors to the navajo nation.

With the help of the United Republics the nation of Portugal manages to establish a grasp over all of its former country. The nation of Spain also retakes its land, excluding Granada and the nation of the Balearic Islands.

The survivors in Amiens, France declare themselves an independent nation known as Picardy. The nation begins growing immensely from trade between the Channel League. Despite this the nation is quite weak, considering it is highly infiltrated with criminals and pirates, and is constantly struggling against rebel factions.

With the French government reaching the city of Amiens, Picardy is established as a French vassal, and French forces begin aiding the city’s inhabitants to clear the area.

With Rome now secured, the Italian government again sends the nations of Central Italy and the Confederation Islands a deal. Sicily will cede its island to the Confederation, and the Italian government will rule over the mainland (the Central Italy player would play as Italy, and since the Sicilian player is inactive, he agreed to play as a different nation).

Malta continues to upgrade its military and defenses in case of an invasion. It’s army score is boosted to 1.50.

The invasion of the Bay Republic begins, with Northern Californian soldiers entering southern Mendocino. Some soldiers take up the flag of Jefferson, to which many far northerners affiliate.

With much of the Turkish high command in disarray, the city of Ankara is a bloodbath. The Turkish general in command is assassinated in a coup, leaving much of the city in rebel hands. The gates are opened, and EHU forces begin to enter the city. The remaining Turkish strongholds are divided among their regional commanders.

Japan: Japan continues to build up the Self Defence Forces and infrastructure is improved. Some of the Maritime Self Defence Force still continues to patrol around Japan. Synthpop and Electro continues to rise in popularity. Some more Zen Taoist Temples continue to be built in Northern Japan. Tatsunori Katsumata continues writing the manga Amsterdam. Cleanup and aid continues for those affected by the earthquake and tsunami. The Republic of Kyushu continues to rebuild the island. Sega continues plans to create another console. The colony of Miyako continues to expand more into Vietnam.

Elba: Soon after the independence from Tuscany, president Giancarlo Gasparri tries to improve the industrial sector, underdeveloped because of the Zombie crisis.

Alaska: The South Territory of Baja California expands north to Santa Rita. with the infrastructure in place near the beachheads, expansion should be very regular from now on. Alaska invites all of the Successor states in California to join the PCO. 

  • Bay Republic (NPC): We accept.

Iran: Iranian diplomats are sent to Suquehanna to establish proper diplomatic relationships. The war against Turkey continues. Military and economy expand.

  • RoS Diplomacy: We offer to trade steel, coal, and natural gas for petroleum products and warships.

Republic of Susquehanna: Diplomats are sent the Iran, and natural gas production is up. Five M2T Rampage' tanks are built. Troops are called home from Turkey, and more farms are planted. The army upgrades 0.25. Construction on Socotra is finished, and a new amphibious assault ship is laid down. 

Three more destroyers are built, and plans are drafted by the government to rejoin the US by 1987.

Confederate Mediterranean:

Official Stances: The CM will be divided into member nations based upon various factors. The current nations are Sardinia, Corsica, Crete, Kingdom of Savoy Naples, Kingdom of Rome, and Sicily. I (Reximus55 (talk)) will play as Sardinia, Corsica, Crete, Rome, and Sicily, and Octivian will play as Savoy Naples (which he prefers to call "Central Italy".
Military: With the full liberation of Rome, the military moves to liberate more of northern Italy. Troops from Sicily begin to attack the tip of Italy (Calabria). Finally, some Cretan troops move up to attack Greece and liberate it.
Corsica and Sardinia both continue to become exceptionally prosperous compared to post-Zombie times. They now have a lot of power, and both work to expand their navy. Crete grows also, but is generally detached from the rest of the CM, so it also deals a lot with Turkey, Cyprus, Egypt, and Libya. Rome is repopulated with people from Sicily who previously lived in Rome. Sicily begins to return to their normal culture since mainland Italy is now friendly territory and the refugees can return to most of southern Italy.
Central Italy: In happiness with our Annexation of Rome a suggestion from the king comes - build a new capital called Nova Roma. In preparation of creating a stronger CM the Navy is given a New Destroyer. Malta joins the CM. Any Mediterranean nation can join the CM, you will get financial support and part a soon Superpower. Also CM should we invade Tunisia to push the Zombies out of there and establish a vassal?
Invitations: We invite Malta, Balaerics, Spain (MODS), Granada, Portugal (G greg e) and Elba (Master001). (Malta - 1, Balaerics - 2, Spain - 3, All of them - 4, Malta and Balaerics - 5, Malta and Spain - 6, Balaerics and Spain - 7, None - 8-10) I got 7, so we will introduce Spain and the Balaerics soon.

You can't control an NPC, Malta will have to be RNG by a mod in order to join. G greg e (talk)

We can tell the moderators that we are all ears for a mod. Octivian Marius (talk) 21:36, May 20, 2013 (UTC)

Note to Octivian -- Can you post in this format? Write CM: then enter and indent. All things foreign relations go thru the CM itself, not its members. Also, would you mind if I corrected your posts to fit the canon of the CM? Thanks, Reximus55 (talk) 11:01, May 21, 2013 (UTC)'

Part of the deal with Sicily is that Italy and the Conf. Islands remain indpendent from each other.

No, not really.

You can clearly see it's been explained that way in the last moderator event. 

I honestly feel differently.

  • RoS Diplomacy: We ask the CM to to occupy the RoS controlled parts of Turkey.

Texas offers an ultimatum to Futura, "We will take Santa Fe. Whether we do so violently or not is up to you." [RNG please] Tanks roll up to the roadblocks, threatening to knock them down by force if need be. Meanwhile, the KNP thrives in San Antonio. It is quite possible their next mayor may belong to the party. Unionists are more popular along the former Mexican border. The Democratic Party has lost all Hispanic support and many are jumping ship to either the Unionists or KNP. The Republicans are faring slightly better, but their future is still uncertain.

  • RoS Diplomacy: A regiment of National Guardsmen are deployed to Texas to aid the military if needed. Plans to launch an airstrike into the town are planned.

Do you really need Santa Fe? Can't you just leave the harmless little nation alone?

Why, my good man, Rome was once a harmless, little city, easily crushable. Then it started expanding and winning wars, until it destroyed Carthage so thoroughly that Carthage was never a threat again. Texas will not become Carthage. (Besides, it's fun.) Doctor Evulz (talk) 22:56, May 20, 2013 (UTC)

There's another way. Simply turn Futura into a vassal. They'd be your harmless little loyal puppet, but still relatively independent. That'd be better for all parties involved.

Eh, I'll see how this goes first.

Why did you forget about Oklahoma and Northern Mexico? That's two plentiful sources of land that don't require bullying a smaller state. I hardly think little Futura is going to be a Rome.

Not to mention they're isolationist. Speaking of Rome, the city of Rome was actually heavily influenced by the Etruscans (like Texas to Futura) and the Etruscan kings' corrupt are one of the factors that contributed to Rome removing that system of government and expanding outward. You could be doing the same with Futura. 



United Islamic Caliphate (My computers been screwy, and has only let me edit once in about a hundred tries, so I'll just pick up where I left off): The strike is played down by national media, and key leaders are monitored by the governments intelligence agency, the Islamic Caliph Department of Interior Defense, or I.C.D.I.S. The union never arose with a name, but it quickly named itself the United Islamic Peoples For Fair Work when they began to attract larger numbers. The Caliph simply ignores them, and the council holds slight fear for what may happen, but ultimately try not to get involved. As'ad Nejem however, sends an email, letter and fax to all the council members and the Caliph, urging them to quickly end the union strike as quickly as possible, with as much peace as possible, citing the reasons behind the revolution that brought them the Caliphate. Little progress is made with only one-fourth of the country now needing rebuilding, and as such, the industry score remains at 0.75. On a better note, the town, Sayun and Habban, towns near two growing oil fields, grow tremendously with new residents. As such, the new Yemeni government has needed to increase the importation of food to feed the towns growing populations.

  • UIC Diplomacy: The Caliph rejects the aid offered by the Republic of Susquehanna, citing independence and nationalism, but his decisions is overturned by a majority in the Council, who accept the aid offered. The Council and Caliph offer to aid in the reconstruction of Eritrea's infrastructure and its people if they will join the UIC. (The UIC is described on paper as a Confederation since the incorporation of Djibouti, but in reality, it is much more centralized and more like a Federation in practice.)

Commonwealth: A modified version of the Phlaxicortin-X is developed and injected into a second Zombie (I asked for an RNG for this two turns ago, but nope. RNG requested [success/failure of test]) Continues development and expansion.

Las Vegas: Vegas extends its borders outward to the only plots of usable land created by the Mafia during their tenure as leaders. Vegas explorers are sent to the Grand Canyon. Transmissions are sent out to the surrounding desert notifying survivors that Vegas is under civilian control now - not Mafia.

  • Vegas Diplomacy: Vegas asks for trade with California.

Cascadia: The alliance with California is accepted. Meanwhile, the infrastructure in eastern Cascadia improves.

Wu: Asks for a renewed alliance with England, Germany, USSR and the Commonwealth. Goes to 2.25 in army score due to lumber and other resources found and mined. A train track is built, connecting Hangzhou and Suzhou. Prepares to capture Shanghai. Japanese companies begins entering Wu for cheap labour. Asks to join the United Cure Organization again. Asks United Republics and the Confederate islands for an alliance. Declares war on Yue and asks mod to make an algorithm.

Wu's Battle Plan of invading Yue

Involves: 100,000 Wu soldiers, ten Zhilong submarine, the entire Wu Air Force, four Qiguan class Destroyers and one ZhengHe aircraft carrier

Casus Belli: Terrorist attack and to build an old country (Chinese culture)

  1. A fake bomb goes off in the parliament of Wu
  2. The President accuses Yue for bombing Wu, some people doubt the truth, but most people agree and propaganda increases.
  3. The ten Zhilong-class submarines attack the largest navy port of Yue, they are assumed to die, but the mission priorities are to sink as many navy vessels as possible. If a part of the fleet survives, they continue to attack the five major ports of Ningde, Foochow, Xiamen, Putiang and Chunchow.
  4. 50,000 soldiers attack Ningde as a diversion attack. 
  5. After a week, the four destroyers, with 10,000 soldiers accompanying each land in the ports of Foochow, Xiamen, Putiang and Chunchow.
  6. The ships destroy the city and allow the soldiers to land in the cities.
  7. Give food to the people as a way to say we come in peace.
  8. 10,000 soldiers will be left in Wu as a preparation.
  9. If the 50,000 are beaten back--> The 10,000 in Wu will round up the remainder as the 40,000 will attack them from the back. Then, the preparation army in Wu will strike from the front, crushing the Yue army in a two front war.
  10. If the 50,000 succeeds--> the army will roll into Yue

Florida: We continue all research and military buildup.

United Republics: The colonies of Georgetown and Cayenne increase with pioneers moving into the area. The coastal regions are beginning to be settled. Infrastructure is built up along the Pacific Coast, and a port continue to be built up east of Santiago. Relations continue to be built up with Spain, and the council continues to ponder the Granada becoming a part of the Confederate Med, while the council and Portugal, decided they are better off separate, but does wish to continue tight and close relations with the CM. UR prepares to launch a rocket with a landing section to the moon. The UR navy begins to undergo, further, thus Increasing his naval score to 1.75. Chilean Patrico Aylwin and Argentine Lucas Larrenga both receive just under 50% of the vote resulting in a run-off to succeed Alfonsin as President. Alfonsin claims both men to be great for the position. Another vote begins, and Aylwin wins 52.8% of the vote. 

  • Portugal: Naval excercises continue. Industry continues to be improved. 
  • Granada: Infrastructure continues to improve. Officals ponder and deliberate with the UR joining the Confed M. 
  • Falklands: We continue to send people Antarctica, and we completely open the borders of the islands to Argentinians, to restore the population size.

South Africa: The number of pregnant women continues to rise as more children are born. The Plan continues into Stage Two. The large reservoir and canal network brings more water into previously ungrowable areas all around South Africa. The extension of the large water netowrk is completed, and links up with the under construction water network in the north. A large amount of water continues to be brought to northern deserts. Trees planted to create new forests and jungles grow much better with reservoir water helping their growth. The largest reservoir in the planet finishes construction. The artificial hills become larger as more land is added onto it, and grass helps to solidify the shape of the hills. A huge amount of jobs is provided by the reservoir and an economic boom continues. Gold being extracted helps to pay for the refurbishment and bettering of factories. Tank factories continue churning out Cheetah I in smaller numbers and five hundred more are delivered to the Army. The Cheetah 2 continues production and one thousands of the tanks are delivered to the Army. The army is upgraded to 2.5. More animals are secured and animal numbers have improved. Thousands of classes continue, as people who cannot speak the languages learn how to do so. More Suburbs are completed and opened to sale to the general public. Blacks continue to marry into different ethnic groups, continuing to blur lines. A large amount of state schools are constructed and more children are educated. The army is trained up to be even better, with the tanks and troops training together. A smaller, second reservoir network continues construction in the new northen areas of the nation. Relations with the Dutch continue to improve. As relations grow closer, talks of an equal union for the growth and protection of both nations' economies and militaries continues. The Netherlands also continue to expand their influence in surrounding areas. A large number of Protestant missionaries convert a large part of the remainder of the population of Belgium into the ways. Mass production of phalax continues in selected factories, which are under direct military control, with the produced drug being distributed all around the army for deployment if there is a need.

United States: The majority of US forces are withdrawn to Cyprus or the United States east coast. The US navy is deployed from Cyprus to the coast of Turkey to patrol the coast in assist in sieging the remaining Turkish strongholds. US specialists and aircraft assist in the final push into Ankara, which is loosely taken by the EHU. We call all the belligerents of the war to discuss peace (we will propose some terms on the treaties page). Route 90 from Helena to Spokane becomes heavily traveled as trade from the United States reaches Cascadia. The official border, which meets along Route 90 through Lolo National Forest is left completely unprotected, and soon criminals, political prisoners, and thefts use the forest to escape from Cascadia, hiding in the Lolo and St. Joe National

1984.50[]

Futura asks that they remain independent, but asks Texas instead for an alliance.

The deal from Sicily is again offered to Central Italy and the Confederation Islands, and it goes into effect.

This is inaccurate. The CM is a national confederation of Sardinia, Corsica, Crete, Rome, and Campania (Naples). Octivian plays as Campania, and I play as the greater CM, as well as Sardinia. Sicily is going to be incorporated into the CM, not be a nation apart from the CM. Reximus55 (talk) 22:09, May 21, 2013 (UTC)

No, that's not true. 

It is Remixuss55 who is asking now, I asked earlier Octivian Marius (talk) 23:16, May 21, 2013 (UTC)

Peace negotiations to discuss the end of the Middle East War begin. All major belligerents of the war are encouraged to contribute.

The Republic of Mombasa is established in the former Kenyan city by a large group of survivors and local gangs.

The Republic of Zaire, with the majority of its forces stationed in Kinshasa since the apocalypse, launches an invasion of the Republic of the Congo. Forces cross from Kinshasa into Brazzaville, striking down little resistance.

Contact is made between the Japanese settlers and the Vietnamese government at Qui Nhon. Many Vietnamese flock to the settlement looking for food and supplies. Soon a crowd of several hundred meets at the gates of the small village, demanding aid from the Japanese government.

Several wealthy Japanese settlers in Qui Nhon begin employing Vietnamese laborers to work small farms and shops in the town. The poor working conditions push the Vietnamese, who are in a large majority around the city, to revolt against the Japanese. Several thousand dollars of manufactured goods are destroyed or stolen during the workers’ strike, and at least two dozen people are found dead.

A pro-Democratic revolution begins in the Soviet Union. The anti-Soviet propaganda cirulated by Poland and printed by local rebels manages to whip the citizens into a froth. The Ukrainians once again reassert their independence, and manage to establish a permanent People's Republic of Ukraine. Belorussia follows suit and similarly restore the Belarusian People's Republic. Now completely cut off, the former Soviet soldiers in Romania, Bulgaria and Greece prop up Communist regimes in those countries.

The only reason I held off on the USSR was that they were necessary to take down Turkey.

After years of winter freezing and a concentrated effort to exterminate them, Northern Europe is completely cleared of Zombies. The Free Republic of Poland formally celebrates the destruction of the last Zombie in Polish territory.

Japan: Japan continues to build up the Self Defence Forces and infrastructure is improved. Some of the Maritime Self Defence Force still continues to patrol around Japan. Synthpop and Electro continues to rise in popularity. Some more Zen Taoist Temples continue to be built in Northern Japan. Tatsunori Katsumata continues writing the manga Amsterdam. Cleanup and aid continues for those affected by the earthquake and tsunami. The Republic of Kyushu continues to rebuild the island. Sega continues to create its new console. Prime Minister Yasuhiro Nakasone aids the Vietnamese with supplies. Meanwhile, Yasuhiro Nakasone condemns the wealthy Japanese settlers who employed Vietnamese to work for them, and orders an arrest for said wealthy Japanese settlers. He also apologises to the Vietnamese for the incident and pays for the damages caused. Some Self Defence Forces arrive to help out the Vietnamese to prevent incidents like this from happening again, as well as helping them out.

Kingdom of Italy: The Kingdom begins creating the air force. A nationwide draft comes into effect that every household must commit one man to the millatrty. Familys become outraged as riots begin. In response to the riots the Kingdom says that for every man in the army their family will get a 20 pounds of beef a month and an ounce of gold on top of their salary they made from their last job that the army gives them. All volunteers will get one pound of gold as a bonus and 20 pounds of beef all partially from the King's pocket. The Kingdom decides to invade Tunisia to liberate it from the Zombies. The Kingdom also continues to push north. The Space program begins in devolpment in Cambria. The Destroyer is deployed at a cheering cermony in Nova Roma. It begins to patrol the southern Mediterranean - particularly Malta.

CM Diplomacy: We offer the Kingdom of Italy to join the Confederate Mediterranean. (This will make it all official.)
  • Kingdom of Italy: I will join if the Capital is Naples.

Commonwealth: I need an RNG for last turns request! Continues development and expansion.

I don't know how many times I have to say this, but your RNG was already answered, when you first asked it.

Austria: The vast industrial renewal program continues as work on the upgraded Bundesstraßen (Austrian autobahn) system from Vienna to the Austrian Alps, continues on schedule. The Nationalist forces and Emperor continue a large military build up in preparation of the invasion to take out Liechtenstein and all of the "rebels".

Texas demands Futura be made a protectorate, and its name be restored to the Santa Fe. Meanwhile, almost all of New Mexico has been expanded into, the most recent editions being Española and Gallup. Scouts explore southern Arizona. Another draft is put into place to administrate the new conquests. Back home, the Legislature announced surprise gubernatorial elections in the January of 1985. The KNP has already put up a candidate for the elections: former Grand Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan David Duke. It's not very well-known how Duke moved to Texas, but he's been there since at least 1978, meeting the five-year requirement for the office. Meanwhile, Ben Barnes states that he would not seek re-election, while Bill Clements is the the front-runner for the Republican party. The Unionists are congregating into a single party, with Ramsey Muñiz and Carlos Truan being popular choices going around.

You can't realisticallly expand that fast, plus there are already inhabitants leaving in those areas.

United Islamic Caliphate: The Council heeds the request of As'ad Nejem while he is at Istanbul, and sends an offer to the unionists. (Need an RNG decision on whether or not the unionists agree) The Council offers the union a small increase in pay, but they also offer a moderate sum of money to be paid to all their families and themselves once they complete the rebuilding efforts, and for added measure, the Council offers a bonus to the moderate sum of money if they can finish rebuilding in 4 months or less. For two weeks, Sayun and Habban must endure food shortages and rationing due to two large ships of food crashing into rocks, and the food being lost to the sea, and they endure until more food arrives, and the rationing ends. The economy has yet to fully stablize, as not all parts of the country are working to their full prewar potential. It is this lack of stablity that causes a small market crash which causes food prices to increase on foods from within the nation, and that number of foods produces nationally is thankfully relatively low.

  • UIC Diplomacy (Needs an RNG decision): The UIC offers to aid in the rebuilding of Eritrea, its economy and its people, and offers military protection, on the condition that they join the United Islamic Caliphate as a state, with six representatives in the Council.
  • RoS Diplomacy: We cannot give more aid due to the hurricane, but Task Force 1 is being deployed to provide shipping coverage.

Confederate Mediterranean: We invite Italy, Spain, the Balaerics, Malta, and Elba to join the CM. In addition, our navy grows. Major Greek Ionian and Aegean Islands are recolonized and added to the CM, while CM forces attack northern Italy and Greece to secure more land from the Zombies. Octivian - Just accept the deal to join the CM, and our plans are in place.

When will the ULN do anything?

Republic of Susquehanna: The citizens vote down the proposal to rejoin the US with a vote of 46% yes, 51% no, 3% abstained. More farms are planted to accompany the growing population, and the military. The capital on Socotra is enlarged, and the airfield is completed. The RoS is willing to accept a peace deal to end the war.

An unexpected hurricane, named Hurricane Diana hits the RoS on September 23rd. (It had been assumed that it was going to hit North Carolina, but a freak pressure change drove it North), damaging Bloomsburg, Danville, Berwick, Sellinsgrove, and Sunbury. Danville is flooded, and the Governor Bonin declared a state of emergency in Montour County, Columbia County, Northumberland County, and Schukill County . The National Guard is deployed to prevent riots, and supplies are procured for survivors. Stats: 54 died, 851 injured, ~87,000 displaced, $463 million dollars in damage. Appalachian Heavy Industries are damaged and temporarily closed.

Because of this, the capital is moved to Williamsport temporarily.

United Republics: The Lunar Landing Rocket coined Artimus One is launched at the end of these three months. Brazil and Peru are admitted to the League of Latin America. The United Republics sends aid to RoS in order to help their civilians recover, As well a basic police force, doctors, and a few research scientists, the San Salvidor a Marie (Hospital ship) is sent as well. The UR industrialal sectors begin to be built up on direction of Aylwin. The UR's Georgetown and Cayenne expand along the coast toward one another, reaching Surime. The United Republics reaches out to Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo , and the region of South Brazil as it appears the government has once again abandond their people. UR intellegence agents continue to infilitrate Peru and now begin infilitrating Brazi.. Pro-UR parties are funded in Bolivia and Brazilian areas. 

  • Portugal: Naval expansion continues increasing the score to 1.5. Lisbon and Porto begin to grow. 
  • Granada: Continues to think of the CM's request, voting reaches closer to 50%. Infrastructure is improved, as well as industry. The city of Sevilla grows.
  • Falklands: The civilians move is complete (those that fit in the half finished city), and we begin to fortify the entrance to the underground city. We are now generating enough electricity to have some spare to send to other nations, and we begin sending large numbers of high capacity full batteries to the RoS to give them electricity, free of charge. The Falkland government now splits its time between Stanley and New Stanley, whichwe are renaming New Falklands. The islands have filled up again with ex-argentinians who have moved there.

Line is way to far, if you mean like generators and batteries, that is doable, also it takes longer build this underground town that the 9months, give it just a little longer G greg e (talk)

  • RoS Diplomacy: RoS thanks the UR for the aid, and supplies. You can use some of our warships temporarily.

United League of Nations: ASKS THAT ALL NATIONS SEND AID IN THE AFTERMATH OF HURRICAN DIANA, also is willing to host and mediate the Middle East War Treaty negoations (it is expect of it to do so). 

Elba sends 658,460,000 Elban Liras (500,000 USD) to the territories hit by Hurricane Diana.
United Republics: Sends a police force, reconstructive supplies, San Salvidor a Mare (Hospital Ship), and food and water to the area.
  • RoS Diplomacy: We thank Elba for the monetary aid, and the UR for the aid. The RoS is willing to sign a ceasefire.
  • The Commonwealth: Sends a fair amount of supplies and an MP force to the RoS. We also send a medical military ship.
  • Kingdom of Italy: We will send you 50 soldiers for rebuilding.
  • The Kingdom of Iran  Sends 1500 pounds of rice and pre-packaged meals to the region.

Iran: The military continues growing. Iran will accept the RoS trade deal only if the trade deal is still valid or may be easily re-applied when the Susquehanna joins the US in 1987. 

  • RoS Diplomacy: The vote to rejoin was shot down.

1984.75[]

The nations of Futura, Painted Desert, and White Sands, the major states of New Mexico, sign an alliance, fearing that Texas may threaten their sovereignty.

Zuni Indian Reservation and the town of Gallup join the nation of Painted Desert, establishing a permanent eastern border.

The invasion of the Republic of the Congo is moderately successful, and the city of Brazzaville is taken by the invaders.

The nation of Cabinda is declared by far reaching South African survivors in the former province of Cabinda.

Rabat, Morocco is taken by Moroccan rebels. The Moroccan revolution is declared over, and the nation is established as a democracy. The new Moroccan government begins aiding the Algerian rebels, who have nearly won the majority of the country.

As part of the Arab Spring, the nation of Tunisia falls into revolution. Protests begin in major cities.

Acording to the map an the nation list, there is no nation of Tunisia, and that would mean I invaded a perfectly functional nation by accident to push the Zombies out. Octivian Marius (talk) 21:20, May 22, 2013 (UTC)

I don't know what you're talking about, but just because it isn't listed in the nations list doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

The state of Eritrea declines the offer to join the nation of Yemen since their people are so culturally different.

Following rapid settlement and expansion, Texas’ stability drops to 46.

The deal with Sicily is officially enacted, creating two independent nations; the Confederate Mediterranean and the nation of Italy.

The hardline Soviet government falls after a coup deposes General Secretary Andropov and his supporters. Most of these hardline Communists flee to Siberia, where they establish the Socialist Republic of Siberia. This leaves the newly founded Russian Republic with mostly just European Russia.

Japan: Japan continues to build up the Self Defence Forces and infrastructure is improved. Some of the Maritime Self Defence Force still continues to patrol around Japan. Synthpop and Electro continues to rise in popularity. Some more Zen Taoist Temples continue to be built in Northern Japan. Tatsunori Katsumata continues writing the manga Amsterdam and will release it next year. Cleanup and aid continues for those affected by the earthquake and tsunami. The Republic of Kyushu continues to rebuild the island. Sega continues to create its new console. Some of the wealthy Japanese settlers who employed Vietnamese to work for them are arrested by the Self Defence Forces and put in jail. The Miyako colony expands slightly.

Alaska: The south territory of Baja California expands north to Loreto. 

  • United Republics: Aid is sent to further expand the territory, as well as some settlers.

Austria: The vast industrial renewal program is completed and the upgraded Bundesstraßen (Austrian autobahn) system from Vienna to the Austrian Alps opens, with the first car to travel the full length of the new road from Vienna to the Alps is the Emperor himself. Once reaching the Alps, the Emperor inspects the secret military force that has been building up in preparation for the invasion of Liechtenstein to destroy all of the "rebels". The Emperor is impressed and decides that the attack should commence very soon, until then, the military build up continues.

Texas: The alliance of microstates is not tolerated. At 1:02 AM local time, the tanks and artillery surrounding Futura are given the order to fire. Fifteen minutes later, bombers and fighters are scrambled from Kirtland, Cannon, and Holloman Air Force Bases. Tanks and infantry engage in "Blitzkrieg"-style assaults in White Sands. Preparations are made for similar attacks in the other countries. There are almost a million soldiers and hundreds of tanks ready.

Back east, the first presidential debates commence. Even after months, the Democratic Party has not decided on a candidate. Instead, there are dozens of Democrats running independently. None of them possess any significant chance of winning. Ramsey Muñiz is the unionist faction's candidate. He takes a harsh stance against the new war, stating that the other countries "need not be oppressed as we have." David Duke, the Know Nothing Party's candidate, is very favorable toward the war, saying that Texas ought to "assert its authority in the region". He went on to say, "The alliance poses a significant threat to Texan interests. If we allow them to do this, we are giving up a critical principle of this nation: to give our prosperity to all."

Muñiz replied, "As a Hispanic Texan, I can tell you that we have no prosperity!" Duke also accused Muñiz of betraying Texas and wanting to rob it of its sovereignty. Meanwhile, Bill Clements didn't put up much of a fight, and lacked support from minorities and many in his own party.

You do know this is like a college student picking on a group of elementary school kids? How the hell does a collection of microstates threaten the great and powerful Texas. I really loathe the Texan bullies right now. All this war does is justify their fear of the warmongering bastards in Austin.

Commonwealth: We recognize the russian republic and socialist siberia as independent states. An alliance request is flown to Moscow. Continues development and expansion. It believed by many officials that a medical breakthrough is imminent.

United Islamic Caliphate: The Council decides to respect the decision of Eritrea, but is still conflicted as to whether or not aid should be offered as a sign of goodwill, or keep the strained resources at the homefront. 5000 more reserve soldiers volunteer to rebuild in Djibouti, receiving the extra pay that comes with volunteering. The strike continues in the UIC as a response has not been received from the United Islamic Workers Organization, but the I.C.D.I.S has found (or forged) some incriminating evidence for several prominent party members, most of the evidence is for minor offences, but the Council requests that they wait until a deicison is made by the United Islamic Workers Organization before they arrest them or not. The Council send a extensive letter of thanks to the Republic of Susquehanna, thanking for the shipping coverage, but also thanking them again for their aid in the Yemeni Rebellion.

  • UIC Diplomacy: (Needs an RNG decision please) The Council offers the United Islamic Workers Organization a small increase in pay, but they also offer a moderate sum of money to be paid to all their families and themselves once they complete the rebuilding efforts, and for added measure, the Council offers a bonus to the moderate sum of money if they can finish rebuilding in 4 months or less.
  • RoS Diplomacy: You're welcome.

Kingdom of Italy: The Kingdom is proud as Commander Fellipe di Angelo is launched into space and as a glorius Kingdom cheers. The morale of the people skyrockets as more men continue to join the army. A new Naval fleet is being made. As the Kingdoms first new airplanes fly, they bomb the Zombies in Tunisia and create a air field in the small land that the Kingdom has captured called Nova Lombrdy. The airplanes turn around and fly to Corsica where they tell the head of the CM that the Kingdom will join only if you change the capital to Naples. Nova Lombardy has a Capital called Nova Milan that I believe is destined to become a sparkling city. Long hail the Kingdom and the King.

Why did someone cross this out?

Las Vegas: Following a population explosion Vegas begins to upgrade its infrastructure to support them. Major Food shortages are reported. Military forces begin clearing out the Mojave wasteland.

  • Vegas Diplomacy: Vegas asks for trade with Californian Republic.

Elba starts to upgrade ports and a new highway system is launched, replacing the Tuscan highway system. A new underground project has been launched and now it is under construction.

Republic of Susquehanna: Thanks all of the nations who aided us in rebuilding. Repairs are started in Bloomsburg, and the floodwall is rebuilt in Danville. The space program is temporarily cancelled until repairs are complete. We recognize the Russian Republic. Rail lines are repaired, and temporary housing is acquired for the survivors. A Cessna Scout Plane flying over Socialist Siberia disappears.


United Republics: URSAs Artimus One is successful and the URs Ajinca Lopes and Sir Brent Milwood lands on the moon. A returned trip, Artimus Two, is planned for the next three months using the same landing section. The UR continues to work on developing its navy, Increasing its score to 2.0 (2.0 mil, 2.0 navy, 2.25 Industrial). The United Republics sends agents to Greece to avoid a fall to comunism in that nation. The colony of Georgetown is now connected to Cayenne through the coastal regions. Outreach continues to the regions of South Brazil, Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. Pro-UR and Pro-independence from Brazil parties are funded heavily. Santa Cruz increases infrastructure and industrialization. Mining begins in N. Paraguay and E. Santa Cruz as well as the Andes Mountains. 

  • Portugal: Continues to upgrade infrastructure. Lisbon grows.
  • Granada: Continues to upgrade infrastructure and industry. Continues to consider CM proposal. For now wishes to become an associated state with the CM.
  • Falklands: We are nearing completion on the City of New Falkland, and 3/4 of the population are now living there, but argentinians are queuing to get citizenship to the Falkland Islands (free health care) and we will soon have a purely argentinian Falklands. We begin to mine in Antarctica, as it is rich in resources.

Chan Santa Cruz: Soldiers clear the Undead out of the Yucatan and take control of the entire peninsula. Industry is upgraded. (Can I have scores please?)

Army: 1, Navy: 1, Industry: 1.25, Stability: 50.

1985[]

A large protest in Tunis ends in violence, prompting a few hundred city inhabitants to take up arms against the Tunisian government. An organized resistance begins in the underground circles of Tunis and other major cities.

Violence breaks out in Moscow where the proclaimed Russian democratic nation is sieged by the Soviets. With the war in the Middle East ending, thousands of soldiers are sent back north. The Russian Civil War begins.

Leaders of the Soviet Union meet with other members of the Warsaw Pact. In accordance with the Treaty of Dubai, which the USSR is expected to sign, Greece, Bulgaria, and Romania are prepared to be entered into the alliance. The nations of Ukraine and Belarus are granted independence in exchange for remaining in the Warsaw Pact, becoming vassals, and aiding the USSR.

An armistice is signed, temporarily ending hostilities in the Middle East War. Delegates meet in Dubai to negotiate the end of the war. (Treaty page: Treaty of Dubai)

Aid from international organizations reaches the United States and the many remnant states in the area after the recent hurricane. Devastated areas begins to be rebuilt.

War is declared between Texas and the states of Painted Desert, Futura, and White Sands. Worried that their trade partners are at danger, the nations of Aztlan and the city-state of Albuquerque join the war against the Texans.

The remnant states of the former Soviet Baltics begin supporting the Democratic faction in Russia, despite the current success of the Communists.

The nation of Clayton is established in the New Mexico town of the same name.

Notice: Mscoree told me to post the moderator events for him in case you're wondering. -Kogasa

The United League of Nations once again asks all nations to join. Asks that all former states of the USSR join including Ukraine and Belarus. All North American, European Nations and Asian states are asked to vote on a represenative to represent their region on the permant (security council - USSR, USA and UR are already permanently on the council as founders)

Japan: Japan continues to build up the Self Defence Forces and infrastructure is improved. Some of the Maritime Self Defence Force still continues to patrol around Japan. Synthpop and Electro continues to rise in popularity. Some more Zen Taoist Temples continue to be built in Northern Japan. Tatsunori Katsumata releases the manga Amsterdam and features a new main character, Toyosatomimi no Miko. Cleanup and aid continues for those affected by the earthquake and tsunami. The Republic of Kyushu continues to rebuild the island. Sega continues to create its new console. The Miyako colony expands slightly.

Texas: A million men have been mobilized by now. Futura is encircled by tanks with close air support. F-4's go on bombing runs against all enemies. Clayton is offered a deal. It will be spared war if it agrees to become a protectorate. Meanwhile, David Duke appears to win the presidency with 42.6% of the vote, compared to Ramsey Muñiz (42.5%) and Bill Clements (12.9%). However, Unionists accuse Duke and the KNP of ballot-stuffing and demand recounts. By Texan law, they are granted. Eventually, a court battle ensues. It may last months.

Commonwealth: Our first ICBM is successfully launched, splashing down in the North Pacific (it was a test ICBM, or a blank missile, no warhead onboard). Continues to declare global neutrality, while still sending aid to the RoS after the hurricane. Continues development and expansion.

Kingdom of Italy: Because we are already pushing the Zombies out of Tunisia we decide to help the rebels by giving them two armored trucks, one tank and 500 machine guns. We meet on the bordar of Nova Lombardy and Tunisia where we give them all this stuff. The naval fleet is launched at another cheering ceremony in Nova Roma. We decide to improve our industry - something that has been ignored in the past year. The new fleet is sent directly to Malta where we give them an offer. Will you please join Italy, we have very similar cultures. We ask the ULN to join them. We have officially decided to join the CM. The draft is continuously used with many men doing war related jobs to get excused from the draft. What are my scores and if you cross anything out can you tell me why - not like last time.

CM offers Italy membership in the CM.

I've already went over this. Sorry, but you can't join the CM. Your scores are Army: 1, Navy: 1, Industry: 1, Stability: 50.

Yes, they can join it. They will simply have the majority of power in the CM. It is a confederacy where each citizen can elect a leader to represent their state, and then each state has a vote to elect the Persident (Governatore). This is similar to UK or, in TTL, the UR.

UR uses a US style electoral state election (each nation's departments, with some modifications to departments) to elect its officals G greg e (talk)

Not because he's physically incapable, but because it has been decided against.

Las Vegas: Vegas military forces move on Area 51 to secure modern military equipment and stores of oil and food and military grade weapons. Vegas expands exponentially over Nevada and begins trying to create an arable amount of soil in the desert in an attempt to reclaim it.

  • Vegas Diplomacy: We ask to Join the ULN.

Northern California:  Airlifts relief supplies to the Republic of Susquehanna after Hurricane Diana hits said counrty. The airlifted supplies come in the form of food, medicine, clothing, blankets, and ammo. Meanwhile, on the invasion of the Bay Republic, the North Californian ship R.C.S. Alex Mercer blocks the entrance to the bay and the R.C.S. Modoc prepares to shell the city of San Francisco. North Californian foot soldiers captured the city of San Rafael after intense fighting with the Bay Republic's militia forces, followed by San Mateo eight days later. Travis Air Force Base also fell, allowing North Californian MiGs to launch air strikes on Oakland, Alcatraz and Treasure Island.

You don't know that they exist yet.

CM: We expand our military and economy. We also invite Elba in as a protectorate, and finish the vassalization of the Aegean islands. We send our military in to liberate Greece, and ask Italy if they choose to become a protectorate of the CM, which would be allowed, per the rules. We also ask Italy to allow the CM to administer Tunisia, since overseas possessions of the CM are operated more efficiently, and it would strengthen our bonds. We ask for Granada.

Republic of Susquehanna: Reconstruction is almost finished. Troops from Turkey are recalled home. Flood protection is started in all towns, and farms are rebuilt. The RoS sends an investigation group to Soviet Siberia to search for the crash. Plans to launch a mission west to find more allies is planned for 1986. 

Chan Santa Cruz: We close our ports to Texan ships. We state that we support the rights of the Coalition not to find themselves oppressed by a colonial xenophobic government. We offer trade agreements to the Coalition Governments at vastly reduced customs rates. Naval technology is upgraded in order to enforce the ban. However, we do not declare war on Texas.

United Republics: Military forces increase to 800,000 due to naval increase of men because of the acquired and built up bases and because of this increase the Naval Score increases by 0.25 to 2.25 (2.0 Military, 2.25 Naval, 2.0 Ind). URSA launches another lunar landing on the rocket Artimus Two, with another successful landing. Secret: UR sends agents to Florida and Texas to copy former NASA plans for a lunar base. Secret: propaganda is increased in Greece to free them from Soviet ties. The UR continues to expand in Coastal Guayana connecting Cayenne and Georgetown through Suriname. Aid is sent to Baja California colony. Scout and exploration teams sent to West Africa, in hopes of anaylizing the situation. They decide to send pioneers to establish a settlement to OTL Abidjan. 

Elba: Thanks to the upgraded ports, Elban Navy tries to conquer Piombino.

Austria: The military buildup in preparation for the invasion of Liechtenstein to destroy all of the "rebels" continues as the Emperor returns to the capital and tells his generals to invade as soon as they are ready.

1985.25[]

All nations are asked to join the United League of Nations. China, France, the USSR, the UK, and the USA join as permanent members. The nations of Spain, Granada, Portugal, South Korea, Scandinavia, Confederation of the Baltics, Canada, Ireland, Peru, and Brazil join. Other nations are invited.

The nation of Hawthorne is declared in the Nevada town of the same name.

Survivors in Bullhead City and southern Nevada and California establish the nation of Mojave, encompassing Bullhead City and Fort Mojave, and reaching Route 40 in the south, and touching Mojave National Preserve in the west.

With military support from Italy and supplies from the United States, the Tunisian rebels manage to make some progress against the Tunisian government. A large firefight breaks out in Tunis, starting an around-the-clock battle in the streets.

Pushing north from Turkey, Russian forces secure the Caucasus Region and begin moving toward Moscow. Some peacekeeping forces also enter Ukraine and Belarus, where crime has skyrocketed since the reintroduction of private property. The Ukrainian and Belarusian governments begin to combat this by constructing new and more humane prisons on the sites of old Soviet gulags. The Ukrainian and Belarusian governments establish new spy agencies to crack down on the rising crime rate.

Soviet leaders begin considering the option of a peaceful union with the rebel forces. The democratic faction in the government still maintains a large following, and some believe it many be better to reform the USSR. One of the Soviet high command, Mikhail Gorbachev, general secretary of the Communist party, pushes for increased democratic reforms. A conference to discuss the future of Russia is called between the several Russian factions.

An 8.0 magnitude earthquake hits Santiago and Valparaíso in Chile leaving 177 dead, 2575 hurt, 142,489 destroyed houses and about a million people homeless.

All belligerents of the Middle East War are asked to sign the Treaty of Dubai, which will officially end the war.

Texan forces mobilize for the invasion of the New Mexico city-states (Texas, you need an algorithm).

Elba joins the United League of Nations.

Japan: Japan continues to build up the Self Defence Forces and infrastructure is improved. Some of the Maritime Self Defence Force still continues to patrol around Japan. Synthpop and Electro continues to rise in popularity. Soon a new genre emerges, called Techno. Some more Zen Taoist Temples continue to be built in Northern Japan. Tatsunori Katsumata decides to begin his plans for a game. Cleanup and aid continues for those affected by the earthquake and tsunami. The Republic of Kyushu continues to rebuild the island. Sega continues to create its new console. The Miyako colony expands slightly. Japan strongly refuses to join the United League of Nations and wishes to stay out of it. Meanwhile the Tōhōkai increases in popularity again.

Commonwealth: Scientists anticipate a major medical breakthrough in the later half of the year, scientists are enriching the Phlaxicortin-X and adding and balancing other medicines that have been found to reverse some of the effects. The navy and army blockades the strait between the other Indonesian islands and Guinea to prevent the Zombies from spilling out of Malaysia and ravaging Indonesia and spreading onto the commonwealth mainland. A massive wall project along the northern coastlines are under construction, towers and a large concrete wall, along with barbed wire, landmines, a fall pit and electrical fence is constructed, also in the fear of the spreading contagin. Continues development and expansion. Despite supporting turkey during their war, we deny signing any treaty. A neutrality pact, capable of being lifted in any circumstance that the nation needs to intervene in the world situation is adopted.. The pact must have a majority vote to be lifted.

United Islamic Caliphate: The union is successfully bought off, the money and benefit extinguishing their need to strike. Since this agreement was made through almost entirely peaceful means, there is more incentive placed upon the workers, who finally complete repairs to Yemen, and Djibouti, bringing the Industrial Score back to 1.00. Now that repairs have finally been completed, the Council votes in just a bare majority, 88 to 72, to divert some excess funds to the military. Most of these funds head to spearhead military research, much of it being reverse engineering seeing as they have a plethura of foreign tanks and a severe to near total lack of domestically produced tanks designed for desert warfare. The government attempts to find the leftover, non-military rebuilding workers jobs, many of them going to small to large industrial jobs, such as cutting steel, refining oil, and creating more small parts for the other industries. The Council begins debates to precede a vote on whether or not to sign the Treaty of Dubai. The reason for debate is stirred from automatic and mandatory acceptance into the United League of Nations, which some council members have pointed out that their goals conflict with the culture and religion of the UIC, and by joining, they force themselves to either comply and forsake their religion, or join and leave, and risk angering potential and current allies.

  • RoS Diplomacy: To aid the UIC military, the RoS donates the ten AT-1 Troop Transports, 13 1A4 Leopard's modified for desert and extreme heat, and four F-12's.

How do the ULN's goals conflict with your religion or culture? G greg e (talk)

Northern California: A group of radical northerners successfully assassinates Virgil Baal, the leader of the Bay Republic and asks mod to make an algorithm. However, we ask for supplies of Phalanx from Cascadia to continue our expansion towards infected territory, and 2500 foot soldiers to assist in the invasion of the Bay Republic. We also accept trade with Las Vegas, in return for permission to deploy troops to the city to aid in maintaining order, establishing a stable government and the suppression of the mafia, which is the power behind the Californian drug cartels. 

Sorry, there's a typo, that's why I edited this one to correct it. IstocnoSarajevo (talk) 13:12, May 27, 2013 (UTC)

Republic of Susquehanna: The RoS re-opens Appalachian Heavy Industries, and expands the complex, bringing the industry score up 0.25. Congress debates signing the treaty, with some pointing out the large countries all are getting things from the war, but the RoS gets nothing from our aid. Another ten AT-1 troop transports are built, 23 1A4 Leopard Tanks, 16 F-12's, five Oak Transport helicopters, and three new Amphibious Battle Tanks. To aid the UIC military, the RoS donates the ten AT-1 Troop Transports, 13 1A4 Leopard's modified for desert and extreme heat, and four F-12's.

United Republics: Aid is focused on Central Chile to rebuild. However, officials decided to rebuild Valparaiso, Concepcion, with the city Pacifica between the two being planned creating a future trading hub. Trailers and tents are sent to serve as housing for the time being. Nearly all of the UR feels the tragedy and send nearly 30 million dollars in donations, food and building supplies. Efforts are doubled. Naval forces in the Pacific come to rebuild ports in order to restart trade as quickly as possible. The Capital and governmental activities are moved to back to Commodoro Rivvadera for the time being. The UR asks all people of the world to donate time or supplies to hasten recovery. Only other effort not relating to recovery is a rocket launched to the Space Station as on schedule in order to continue energy-related experiments. 

  • Portugal: Aid and naval forces are sent to the UR to aid in rebuilding.
  • Granada: Aid is sent to the UR in building supplies and food.

CM: We expand our military and economy. We also invite Elba in as a protectorate, and complete the vassalization of the Aegean islands. We send our military in to liberate Greece, and ask Italy if they choose to become a protectorate of the CM, which would be allowed, per the rules. We also ask Italy to allow the CM to administer Tunisia, since overseas possessions of the CM are operated more efficiently, and it would strengthen our bonds. 

  • Elba: President Giancarlo Gasparri refuses to enter the CM.

Austria: The war begins as the Austrian military pours into Liechtenstein to destroy all of the "rebels" and annex the territory into the empire.

I'm gonna need some help with the algorithm as I have no idea how it works in this game ~Von.

Kingdom of Italy: The king decides to give the Tunisians five more tanks for their own good. The military score is increased by 0.25. Commander Felippe DiAngalo becomes the first Italian in space. We join the ULN. The north continues to be invaded. If you cross anything out tell me why first and how I could join the CM.

I find it implausible for a brand new nation to send someone into space, especially since in OTL, there wasn't an Italian in space until 1992, with the backing of the ESA and no Zombies to worry about. It's the same reason we didn't let France have a space colony. Doctor Evulz (talk) 19:51, May 25, 2013 (UTC)

Cascadia: The military improves as the fifth Triumvirate elections begin. The Californian requests are accepted. Meanwhile, the industry of Cascadia continues to improve due to the re-using of old power sources and materials.

1985.50[]

The Russian democratic rebels agree to reform the Soviet Union under a more democratic system. Mikhail Gorbachev is elected as the first democratically elected Premier of the Soviet Union. The Communist Party is divided between those in favor of more reforms in the Democratic Party, and those in favor of continuing with old ways in the Conservative Party. The Democratic Party wins a majority of the seats in the Supreme Soviet.

The Texan offensive is surprisingly repelled by the alliance of New Mexican microstates, whose forces used guerrilla tactics similar to those used by the Viet Cong. The new President Ramsey Muñiz, who had defeated David Duke after his ballot stuffing was revealed, uses this as a reason to pull out of New Mexico and begins pushing toward an end to the war. He turns his attention to forging a new ally out of northern Mexico with Mexican refugees.

The Republic of the Rio Grande is founded with its capital in Monclova. With most of the original Zombie population either dead or gone with their food the resettlement of the region progresses quickly.

Moved discussion to talk page.

Commonwealth: Scientists anticipate a major medical breakthrough within the next six months. A massive drill for a containment failure in Canberra is held, with 13,000 members of the National Guard division of the army involved, essentially what it was, is if in the immediate area, seek shelter in place. If farther out, evacuate in an orderly fashion and avoid the containment breach as much as possible. We launch our first satellite from Fiji. Continues development and expansion. Navy reaches 2.5.

Japan: Japan continues to build up the Self Defence Forces and infrastructure is improved. Some of the Maritime Self Defence Force still continues to patrol around Japan. Synthpop, Electro and Techno continues to rise in popularity. Some more Zen Taoist Temples continue to be built in Northern Japan. Tatsunori Katsumata continues his plans for a game and announces that Seiga Rokkaku will be the main character of this new game. Cleanup and aid continues for those affected by the earthquake and tsunami. The Republic of Kyushu continues to rebuild the island. Sega continues to create its new console.

Wu: After years of war, the capital of Yue, Fuzhou, is captured and Yue is defeated. The territories of Yue are annexed and the army is sent to attack Northern provinces. People rejoiced and celebrated for this victory. Industry and economy expand and increase.

Chan Santa Cruz: Now that the war is over we wish to draw ISAF members' attention to the plans put forward by our representative at the headquarters (wherever that is) for Operations Paybe and Balam. At the very least can we receive the shipments of weapons that we are expecting due to Resolution 002? Anti-Texan propaganda is introduced and wells are dug in many settlements. Each settlement is required to begin constructing a wall around its perimeter. We offer to provide resources for the anti-Texan coalition, and armed escorts for them. The government orders the design of an armoured cargo carrier with turret to prevent attack. This is expected to be ready by 1990, to use on the trade routes. For now, 4x4 cars with steel plates welded on and machine guns in place are produced for escorting the aforementioned traders. They come to be known as Ocelots.

  • Texas Dip: President Muñiz is interested in pursuing an alliance. We ask that no violence against the new Texas be taken.

Elba:In order to improve second economical sector, President Giancarlo Gasparri founds a new car manufacturer: Fabbrica Nazionale Automobili Elba (Elba['s] National Car Manufacturer Company) and a new license plate is issued.

Texas: The people are outraged by what they see as Muñiz's cowardice. The Know-Nothing Party capitalizes on this, with David Duke sharply criticizing his decision to withdraw immediately, especially in the face of a 'massacre of Texan troops'. The KNP swells in numbers. Already, they are in control of the President pro tempore in the Texas Senate, and they have a near-majority in the House of Representatives. This may be all they need to achieve supermajorities in both offices. Unionists become targets of hate crimes nationwide, their support thinning even in the 'Union Belt' along the Rio Grande. Texan settlers refuse to abandon their homes in colonized New Mexico and northern Mexico, kicking Mexican refugees out. A few brave soldiers refuse to retreat, continuing to fight. Some are never reprimanded by their commanders.

Investigations brought on by the controversy reveal more or less the same amount of ballot stuffing done by the Unionists as the battle stuffing done for Duke. Vice President Carlos Truan, seeing his political future plummeting, resigns to preserve some hope. The Unionists' numbers decrease by nearly a third of its original numbers.

United States: We sign the Treaty of Dubai, ending the Middle East War. A small force of peacekeeping soldiers is stationed in Turkey, helping to facilitate the reconstruction efforts. The foundations are laid for a naval base on Cyprus which will station a small fleet. Some of the Turkish bunkers are salvaged and repaired, creating the basis of the US military base and emergency shelter network on the island. We continue aiding the Arab Spring revolutions, sending supplies and weapons to rebel groups across North Africa. US forces in North America establish Sheridan, Wyoming as a forward operations base, moving soldiers along Route 90.

1985.75[]

NotLAH USwest 1984

The nation of San Luis is established in southern Colorado by survivors in the San Luis Valley. The city of Pueblo, a popular site for scavengers, is taken by the valley survivors.

Austrian speaker of the house, Amadeus Grün, dies suddenly in his home from a heart attack. The late politician, who was on his third term as speaker of the house, is replaced by Erwin Grosskopf, who will serve until 1988.

After a bloody few months of fierce guerrilla warfare the Texan-New Mexican border is left in ruin. Farms and settlements are razed near Santa Rosa and Roswell, killing dozens of settlers.

With the withdrawal of most Texan soldiers, the Texan settlers, now commonly referred to as West Texans, take up the job of defending themselves. Ex-Texan soldiers and militia help to quell violence in the south of New Mexico, where fighting has calmed down. 

The Live Aid pop concerts occur in London and Philadelphia, raising money for famine relief in Ethiopia.

An 8.1 Richter scale earthquake strikes Mexico City. Around 10,000 people are killed, 30,000 injured, and 95,000 left homeless.

The nation of Great Basin is established in eastern Nevada.

Democratic reforms continue in the USSR. The area around the Baltics and St Petersburg becomes a haven for democrats and anti-Communists.

The Austrians launch the invasion of Liechtenstein. The assault is successful and the Liechtenstein defenders are captured.

The Middle East War officially ends, with the signing of the Treaty of Dubai being finalized. The Republic of Thrace is established.


Japan: Japan continues to build up the Self Defence Forces and infrastructure is improved. Some of the Maritime Self Defence Force still continues to patrol around Japan. Synthpop, Electro and Techno continues to rise in popularity. Some more Zen Taoist Temples continue to be built in Northern Japan. Tatsunori Katsumata finalises his plans for a game, and will begin actual work on it next year. Cleanup and aid continues for those affected by the earthquake and tsunami. The Republic of Kyushu continues to rebuild the island. Sega continues to create its new console and will have it released by next year. The Miyako colony expands slightly.

Commonwealth: As is highly anticipated, scientists within the cureplex make a giant leap forward toward making a cure for the Zombie virus. The scientists discover that a chemical in some other medical medicine reverses the effects of the virus, leaving what could almost be described as a very sick, deformed human. Continues development and expansion.

Republic of Susquehanna: Congress signs the Treaty of Dubai, after the president gives this speech - "Why should the people of the RoS go so low as to want to take resources and money from a nation that has lost so much?  Should there not be compassion for the victims whose lives will never be the same? The mothers who lost children, wives that lost spouses, children that lost parents. I implore you to sign the treaty, with the grace known that we aided those in need."  The Coast Guard is upgraded by 0.25 with the addition of the river cutter: the CGB Rivershark.

Texas: Muñiz promises to aid the West Texans non-violently. In the eyes of the KNP, it is nothing but an attempt to save himself from complete disaster. Truan's resignation caused much of his followers to turn against Muñiz. His approval rating hovers around 30%. He appeals to fellow Hispanics, but even that seems to be a lost cause. Duke takes every method possible to make himself look charismatic and better than the current President. He states that a recall election is really the only option. However, recall elections at the national scale is not legally available.
