Originally Inspired by the original Map Game, here is a really awesome new one! If you notice any discrepancies or implausibilities, please check the talk page and have a peaceful discussion about it.






Something you guys should read![]

Just click on the link Yeah! You betta click on this link! Do it now!

Rules[]

The Rules are as follows;

  • Just like the original Map Game, a turn is a year
  • Take your turn by writing a bunch of random events, then edit the map (Microsoft Paint, FotoFlexer, Adobe photoshop, of any other photo editor will do, but we recommend Plixr)
  • Don't be ridiculous! (i.e., Finland cannot declare independence and then invade the entire world, all in a year)
  • If you don't have a map to show for your new edit, it will be deleted! or a map will be mad based on the stuff you wrote.
  • This will stop in 1650.
  • Please leave comments on the talk page!
  • WE WILL ADD MORE YEARS ONCE WE GET THERE!
  • One other person must go again before you take a turn!
  • PLEASE, make the pictures more consistent. it just looks weird.
  • Also, if you create an event that is considered implausible, it will be discussed and if it is proven so IT WILL BE CHANGED.

  • The Byzantine Roman troops from Alaska arrive on Russia's eastern half and quickly establish a safe base of operations. Most of the Russian military is off fighting their brother's in Europe. They also support the Kamchatka rebels by giving them some military grade weapons to fight the Russians with.
  • In Europe the Russian forces are once again beaten back with advances made by whatever nations are left in the alliance, now vowing to not end this war until they have the Tsar's head on a Pike. They recruit two new nations into the alliance, both wanting more land, and both relatively silent for years now, Kara Kahiti and Xinjaing. These nations launch a joint attack against Russia and make huge gains, mainly from the help of villagers fed-up with the war.
  • China now enters the war on Russia's behalf and invades Xinjaing. This leaves much of the China's coast unguarded from Japanese raids.

This is met with roaring applause from the nation as a whole. (it has been 46 years since New Wales was founded, thus they have no NEED and no WANT to be under a European powers 'wings': Britain was born only nine years ago). They also expanded a small amount inland in North America. The Native American Union incorporates more tribes into its union.

New map.

Ivan appeals to the princes of the other Russian principalities, all of which want to restore Russia. He unites them under his rule, thus forming the Principality of Moscow, and begins building up his army and navy. Ivan promises not to expand Russia (a promise he does not intend to keep). Ivan then severs all ties to Russia's superior states and proclaims Russia's independence. The other countries agree to Russian demands, since they are all worn out from a decade of fighting.

This saddens the Ghurid Sultanate, but they vow to push the Malwa pigs out of the entire sub-continent, this is more for moral then anything else.
  • With Mongolia just suddenly reorganizing into a country, neither Chinese nor Xinjiang take not for over a year. Even though both nations make advancements on Mongolia, China is the most prevalent and begins to realize that this is not Xinjiang when Mongolian cavalierly attacks and decimates almost one-fourth of a platoon. China quickly halts its advance, and signs a treaty with the Mongolian leaders; a similar experience happen to Xinjiang, only on a smaller scale as most of their troops where south.
  • Xinjiang, with the distraction of Mongolia to the north, makes advancements on China-proper.

Pagan has had close relations with china for some time through trade and limited diplomacy, also it wishes to extend its border to the north in order to trade with some in-land countries. Japan joins because of the fact that they had lost a war to Koryo some time ago, and also see it as a moment in which they can better solidify their hold on the main land.

  • Austria and Hungary are forced through outside forces, mainly Byzantine Rome, to forge a single country to keep peace in the region. Many people in the new Austria-Hungary people hate that they are under the same government, but no one wishes to make Byzantine Rome, Poland, Prussia Germany, and Ukraine force a "peace" upon them. As of right now, the new government is more of a confederation then anything else, but this confederation does not work well until troops are amassed along their entire border from all previously mentions countries, to ensure that the region remains stable.
  • Dominion of the Almohades, Sudan and Kongo integrate more tribes into their nations. During this time, Sudan secures a MDA (Mutual Defense Alliance) with the Kingdom of Punt; it breaks down to if Ethiopia and/or the Berber State where to attack they would handle Ethiopia and Sudan would handle the Berber State unless just one attacked, in that case, unless it is Ethiopia, Sudan would only get food and supplies otherwise they would split Ethiopia 40/60 between them (unfortunately Sudan gets the 40). Sudan will also have to do 50% of its economic trade with The Kingdom of Punt.
  • Ethiopia ask the Berber State to help take out the Sultanate of Sudan once and for all, but they refuse citing Dominion of the Almohades and Emirates of Bepi Gahniya as more pressing concerns.

Even though the Kingdoms of Punt's military is not as advanced as others, it has numbers on its side.
  • Arabian Caliphate secretly incites Islamic riots in Byzantine Empire and Persia, both with heavy christian population; The riots are by the natives that have been displaced for either years or just ones that hate their new government.
  • Hindustan invades Baluchistan, but stops the capturing of this weak nation for two reasons:

. 1. Public outcries to not invade and instead keep the military operational only for defensive purposes. . 2. The masses riot in Baluchistan over the weak military, continues fighting, government that itself is weak and does not really care for its people anymore.

  • Mongolia makes a more favorable border with Manchuria. It is agreed upon by BOTH nations that this might be beneficial in future endeavors.
  • However, late in the year Koryo ends up accepting a peace treaty with Japan and China as it realizes it can't win. All captured territories are to remain under the government that captured it; Koryo has lost the Korean Peninsula as well as Korea. Later that same year, with its ONLY ally surrender, Manchuria also surrenders.
  • The Inca Empire falls apart and finally collapses at the end of the year.
  • Due to an earthquake a small island breaks off China and then declares independence, calling itself Sankasos.

  • Srijava conquers Sankasos.
