You might want to flesh out those applications with the appropriate backgrounds for the colonies. Also, think if you really need the colonies right away - or whether it wouldn't make more sense to first get situated with your nation in the international framework and then see how things will work out.

Ok, I'm Sorry :)

Nothing to be sorry about - just a friendly suggestion!

They aren't colonies they were part of my original claim. Cantignia didn't include as he said they were too much for a secondary nation but this is my primary nation now so I want them included. I don't really plan or doing a colonial claim with Ionia or if I do it will probably be months later.

[MENTION=1678]Ionia[/MENTION], I just think.. he was referring to my claim, which was excluded by me..

Even though I already made my request to regain the lands given to Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach, I must now also make another request.

Back in November, Auraria and I worked out the idea of two of the small islands on the Aurarian Gulf being naval bases, old colonies of Ivernia. This was decided because of Jurzy's decision to open up those islands to possible colonisation due to his feeling his nation was isolated. I wrote up the information on the islands, but then Jurzy moved on to another nation.

But he has returned to Auraria, and I would like to be preemptive and make the map claim now, as so as to involve myself in his RP sooner rather than later.

So my second map request for you @ is for two islands, Aengus's Island (Inis Aonghasa) and Choncobar's Island (Inis Chonchúir). Feel free to name them ''The Ivernish Isles'' or some other shorthand if you wish.

Relevant thread:

Any two islands in the cluster of islands near ''Frescanian Occidentia'' will do, I only ask the two islands are adjacent.

I am a diligent colony RPer as you know and I do not make colony claims lightly. I believe I can make good RP out of these islands and trust me, I'll be the first to get rid of them if it's not working.

Actually the entirety of SWE was made from Ivernish parts. I have the old maps that show those ''three prongs'' were Ivernia before.

I don't actually have a problem with little nations but if the lands not being used I want it back. At least back in Ivernia it's a part of my RP.

I mapped out the entire Germanian League some time ago. Do not remember three little prongs. Unless, of course, Franken's shape was amended during the numerous re-drawings of the entire map. As the song goes... in the eeeeeend it doeeeeesn't reaaaally maaaaatteeeeeer *shrug*

This is the map I gave to Cantignia. To construct SWE from. That pics already on the forum somewhere.

I gave that section away on the pretense that if I wasn't used I was taking it back. It matters to my RP which nations are bordering me, and It matters what shape and size my nation has as well as the location of the Provinces within. SWE took the place of Bervenia, and as such Bervenia is now smaller with a smaller population. SWE also was included in a three way RP with me and Franken that was halted because he became absent.


Bervenia was meant to be the most Germanic-Gael place in Ivernia, even with a history of terrorism due to their place between Franken and Ivernia, with some feeling Ivernish and some feeling Frankish. And I reported on this regularly enough in my News Posts. Even my very first post was about this. When SWE took that possibly contentious spot, that sub-plot ended.

Isla Nicoya

So, this is practically a colony request, but in a different manner. For a while I kept poking Xen into an RP over the islands previously held by Aresura with the eventual intention of annexing them into the Aurarine Republic. Since José moved Aresura away and I’ve returned to Auraria and ended the civil war, I’d like to start focusing on that RP that I was never able to pursue.

I have not settled on a method of annexation, but for the new Aresura, that I’m calling Nicoya, I intend for the island to eventually be fully annexed and controlled by Auraria, thus why I’m making this a colony application. I haven’t worked out the details of the demographics of Nicoya, but I intend to base it on Cuba in many ways.

As for the history, I plan to have Auraria and Nicoya united as one colony under the Aurarine Commonwealth and in 1950, when independence was granted, Nicoya was separated and became an independent country. Nicoya fell under a similar autocratic government that Auraria did and all was well for 3 years. Now that a true democratic government is in power, they are going to have a semi-nationalistic fervor that all Frescanian-speaking peoples should be united under the Aurarine Government and a strong feeling that Nicoya inherently is Aurarine territory.

I haven’t decided yet on how I am going to have the annexation pan out ICly, I have numerous ideas, I’m just here to run the idea by the great and powerful mods. The purple islands on the map provided will mark the territory of Nicoya.

Hey [MENTION=2]Cantignia[/MENTION] I was wondering if we could create an Egyptian NPC under the name Aegyptus. We don't really have one but Egyptians are really important history-wise and their absence leaves a lot of gaps. I'v emade a map of the areas they could take (I made sure it's relatively small so it doesn't take much space from actual nations) here: and I've also made a RP pertinent thread here: I've also created a factbook entry here:
Thanks in advance :)

I am moving towards a different path. Nicosia was fun and all but its severely limited in what I can realistically RP. NPC it, I think it will do well as an NPC.

Thanky sir.

When I asked to resize Carentania the purpose was to make it closer to the size it was in past maps, not to change its shape at all. I'd rather have it the way it was, because I have a lot of maps that will become obsolote with a change in shape.

Alright, so for EVERYONE ELSE this will mean shifting the entire continent of Himyar slightly south to ensure the channel between Carentania and Solaren does not become a river that they could build a bridge over when Carentania is enlarged. If you OBJECT please say so now, this update will probably happen sometime this weekend or early next week otherwise.
