Wait, is a football/soccer cup drawing nigh? Martenyika is interested.

Tanks are awful to move so don't get a bigger one until you know you're going to stay in place.

I haven't decided what I want to do with my new tank. I've been waffling over how I want to lay it out and what I want to do with it both hardscape and flora/fauna wise, and have made no progress other than washing it out and putting it on the stand. Since my current tank is a jungle of vallisneria at this point I want to make sure the new one stays under control, but it's also a larger tank, and the more plants I have the less work I have to do myself to keep the water params and algae in line.

I'm nowhere near good enough to do it, but an Indian Mudskipper tank would be so neat to have

Don't be manacheistic to the point of assuming
that there is a good and a bad side in wars.

Background

The participation of Dragão do Mar in the Imperial War (1941-1948) in the side of the Neo-Imperialists is explained by a number of reasons.

The first is the alliance with Rio do Ouro (New totzka) that was established during the War of the Contested Crown (1915-1917). In this conflict, the Ouronan Royalists, backed by the governments of Rio do Ouro and Dragão do Mar, fought against the Ouronan Parliamentarists, backed by Ouronan insurgents, liberals and the government of Almorea. In the aftermath, the war helped to restore Ouronan-Marian relations, as it ended the cycle of revanchism between the two nations that lasted for centuries, and it also created and sentiment of distrust with Almorea.

The second was the anti-Noronican sentiment, caused by the Great Argus Wars, and its expansion over the Mesder Sea, that began in 1802 with the establishment of a settlement in Black Isle by the Noronnican West Sea Company.

The third was the good relations between Dragão do Mar and Keomora, that became stronger with the Keomoran support to the Marian monarchy during the Republican Revolt (1889-1890).

The fourth was the political and economic crisis of Dragão do Mar from 1920-1924, that made possible the election of Camilo Gomes, of the Marian Socialist Party to the post of Grand Minister of the country. Since 1823, when the country was born, the political powers of Head of Government were inferior to the powers of the Head of State, which was the Marian monarch. But in 1926, the first year of government of Camilo Gomes, the Amendment 89 was approved by the Marian parliament, and it removed all the powers of the King Carlos, turning the monarch of Dragão do Mar merely a decorative figure. With that, the post of Prime Minister was created, and it would have all the control over the leadership of the country.

The rule of Prime Minister Camilo Gomes

Camilo Gomes was democratically elected by the Marian population in the context of a economic and political crisis. With the approval of the Amendment 89 in his first year of government, in 1926, the political power of Dragão do Mar became concentrated in the hands of the Prime Minister, while the King became a cerimonial symbol.


Symbol of the Marian Socialist Party (PMS)
After the political reform, the main objective of Camilo Gomes was the reconstruction of Dragão do Mar under the ideals of the Marian Socialism, that, in his words "Would guarantee the sovereignty of the kingdom for a hundred years". However, the Marian socialist government didn't pursued or imprisioned the bourgeois class through socialist revolution, but insted it aimed to slowly turn the country from a free market into a mixed market before turning the country into fully socialist. According to the Prime Minister Gomes, "Dragão do Mar already passed by a revolution. We don't need another" (mentioning the Marian Revolution of 1823).

Several sectors of the Marian economy were nationalized yet in 1926, including the mining, oil, agriculture and metallurgical industries. It was a radical measure in the view of the media and the social elites, which became afraid of the ambitions of Camilo Gomes, but the masses of the Marian population supported him.

The government Dragão do Mar banned multinational companies of banking and tellecommunications from the country, as, in the words of PM Gomes, "The objective of these parasitic enterprises was to steal the Marian wealth and misinform the Marian population". The state-owneds banking company Banco of Dragão do Mar and the news publisher Diário do Dragão were created in few time to compete with Marian private companies of these sectors.

In 1928, with the country successfully recovering from the economic crisis, tens of Marian public institutions of education and research were created. With that, a great portion of the Marian population had access to schools and universities for the first time. It wasn't a surprise for anyone when, later in this year, Prime Minister Camilo Gomes was elected to serve for more four years as Prime Minister of Dragão do Mar.


The reconstruction of the Marian Armed Forces

In the project of rebirth of Dragão do Mar as a socialist kingdom, Prime Minister Camilo Gomes emphasized the importance to rebuild the strenght of the Marian Armed Forces and its reliance with the population. "As long as the Marian military continue subservient to the Marian people, Dragão do Mar will be subservient to no nation" used to say Gomes.

The first fruits of Marian investments in educations were harvested in 1932, when a whole generation of Marians finished their graduation courses in high-quality public universities. Engineers, physics and chemists became important in a national level, as the most of them were searched to work in a group of Marian state-owned companies of military research, including Barcones Defesa Naval, Aviação Mariana, Blindados & Cia, Companhia de Tiros e Armas, and others.


The beginning of the Imperial War

Neutral Dragão do Mar

In 16th of March, 1941, the Imperial War had started. The initiators of the conflict, which were labelled as Neo-Imperialists, were Keomora, Magarat (Athara magarat), Rio do Ouro (New totzka) and Norstham, and they rose to defy the dominant powers in the Western Isles. The defenders of the status quo in the region, which were labelled as the Free Powers, were Noronica, Almorea, Miklania, Aizcona, and several others.

At the beggining of the war, the Marian government was in a dilemma. While the country was reconstructed from a economic crisis and had modernized armed forces, its leader, Prime Minister Camilo Gomes was against the confront, and adopted a neutral instance towards both sides, even through Dragão do Mar was closer to the Neo-Imperialists in many aspects.

The reluctance to pick a side to support yielded very good fruits to Dragão do Mar in the first months of the war. While the Neo-Imperialists bought manufactured weapons and military vehicles from Dragão do Mar, the Free Powers bought beverages, agricultural goods and minerals. The Marian economy, which was a mixed one, felt stimulated to increase its production, and PM Camilo Gomes considered the possibility to maintain the country permanently neutral in the conflict.

support of Rio do Ouro in 1941
Differently from the industrial sectors, which were confortable with the Marian neutrality in the beggining of the conflict, the civil society of the country became very inquiet with the idea of abstaining from a war that was happening right in the proximities of Dragão do Mar. The conflict between Rio do Ouro and Almorea, especifically, mobilized tens of thousands of demonstrators in favor of the Ouronans, who, beyond to having several cultural similarities with the Marians due to the mutual Portuguese colonization, also were in an alliance with Dragão do Mar since 1917, and proved to be reliable partners. Also, hundreds of persons protested in the streets of Messejana in favor of the Empire of Magarat, mostly Marians who descended from the Tamu ethnic group, that is native from Athara Magarat. The support of the Marians to Rio do Ouro and Magarat was so great that the government of Dragão do Mar authorized the creation of a army division composed by 18,000 Marian vollunteers that would receive basic military training before being sent to these two Neo-Imperialists nations. In June of 1941, 11,800 soldiers, which were mostly Portuguese-descendents, were transported to Rio do Ouro to fight in the side of the Ouronans in the south of Almorea, while 6,200, that were ethnic Tamus, were shipped to fight in the side of the Magaratis in the battles of Central Argus.

By August of 1941, the Marian economy felt the first negative impacts of the Imperial War. The foreing purchases of Marian products had fallen abruptelly, as most of the nations involved in the conflict decreased their importations. The imports by the Free Powers, however, decreased much more, as the commercial routes became changed by the dinamic of naval battles in the Karnali Sea and the Mesder Sea. The only foreign markets that didn't decreased their imports from Dragão do Mar in August were the ones of Rio do Ouro and Keomora, in part by the existence of the trans-Raedlon railway, which crossed the three countries.

In the following months, until the end of 1941, the Marian commerce would become stagnated. The international trade in the Western Isles was drastically impaired and without previsions of a recovery in the next year. It's possible that, at this point, Prime Ministed Camilo Gomes approximated to the Emperor of Magarat, Temur Buduja, and they might have realized that, despite following different political ideals, both had much in common, as the aversion against the liberal economic model and the status quo of geopolitics in the Western Isles.


Entrance of Dragão do Mar in the War

After the forces of Rio do Ouro and Marian volunteers reached a stalemate in the south of Almorea, the Marian military strategists convinced Camilo Gomes that it was finally the time for Dragão do Mar to enter in the war. For that, Prime Minister Gomes decided to initially mobilize the Marian Royal Navy in favor of Magarat and the Neo-Imperialists, in order to increase the pression against Almorea.


Footage of the First Battle of the Karnali Sea,
of May 30th to June 4th, 1942
The Karnali Sea is the body of water between the Mesder Sea and the Argean Sea, and is a historically important commercial route. So that, the Marian leader Camilo Gomes knew that having control over it would be essential essential during the Imperial War.

In April 1st of 1942, Dragão do Mar declared war on the Free Powers and joined the Neo-Imperialists, leaving the neutral position in the war. The remaining soldiers of the Marian volunteer division were called back to integrate the ranks of the Marian Royal Army to fight for their country.

Due to a mere coincidence, the Marian declaration of war was announced during the April Fool's Day. This detail made millions of persons across the Western Isles think that it was a joke of the international media or the Marian government. The thought that it was a joke made tens of commercial ships of the Free Powers deny to change their routes, continuing to pass by the Karnali Sea, but in the following days they would regret of this decision.

In April 2nd of 1942, Dragão do Mar and Magarat started a coordinated blockade to the southern strait of Karnali Sea, only accepting the passage of ships from neutral countries or Neo-Imperialists supporters. However, several trading ships from the Free Powers continued to pass by the Karnali Sea, as they thought that the Marian entrance in the war was a April Fool's joke. As consequence, all the goods that they carried were confiscated and divided between Dragão do Mar and Magarat. In some cases, the commerce ships that denied to stop when the Marian Royal Navy approached were sunk to the sea by the cannons of Marian battleships.

Between April 10th and May 20th, the Marian Royal Navy executed series of bombardments against several naval bases and ports in the Almorean eastern coast. In response to these outrageous attacks by Dragão do Mar, and also the Marian-Magarati blockade, in May 28th, squadrons of vessel of the Free Powers attempted to put an end of the blockade of the Karnali Sea. The Neo-Imperialists, however, defended their position successfully in the First Battle of the Karnali Sea, that occured between May 30th and June 4th of 1942, with decisive victory of Marian and Magarati forces.

Retake of territories by the Free Powers

The Second Battle of Karnali Sea happened between August 11st and 12nd, 1945. It was conduced as an effort of the Free Powers to make land in Occupied San Montagna and liberate it by the end of the year, as this would allow them to move into mainland Magarat.

The Neo-Imperialist forces were composed by Magarat, Keomora and Dragão do Mar, with summed numbers of 5 carriers, 5 battleships, 10 heavy cruisers, 30 destroyers, 20 submarines and 5 oilers and also 400 carrier-based aircraft and round 200-300 land-based aircraft. The Marian participation counted with 2 carriers, 2 battleships, 4 heavy cruisers, 11 destroyers, 7 submarines and 2 oilers, and also 100 carrier based aircraft, and 30 land-based aircraft which were supported by Magarat air bases in San Montagna.

The Free Powers had 15 carriers, 5 battleships, 5 heavy cruisers, 10 light cruisers, 60 destroyers and 20 submarines plus 800-900 carrier-based aircraft.

The aftermath was a victory for the Free Powers, and it marked the period between 1945-1948 in which the Neo-Imperialists would suffer consecutive defeats. In this conflict, Dragão do Mar had one heavy cruiser and two light cruisers sunk to the depths of the Karnali Sea, and Magarat had two carriers sunk. 500 Neo-Imperialist aircraft were also be destroyed and the Neo-Imperialists lost around 2,000 men.

Wellsia wrote:Looking for the currencies of more nations and their values. Please help me complete this chart.
The various nations of The Western Isles each have their own currency which has many different values. This can be confusing in determining the value of your money in relation to money of other countries. To deal with this problem the league using various means established a unit of account called the Island Accounting Dollar (IAD).
How to use: to determine the value of another countries value in your currency then divide your currency's IAD value by the other nations IAD value (exp. An Ioudaian is going on vacation in Domanania and wants to convert his drachmas to traks. The bank takes the value of the drachma divides it by trak (2.00/.00926) equals 215.983. If our traveler wants to convert 5,000 drachmas he will get 1,079,915 traks.)
If wanting to find out how foreign money is valued to your currency, divide their currency's value by your on. (exp. The Ioudanian traveler has 250,000 traks left and wants to reconvert it back to drachmas. The bank divides the value of the trak by the value of the drachma (0.00926/2.00) and comes up with 0.00463. To convert the 250,000 traks back, he multiplies 250,000 x 0.00436 leaving him with 1,157.5 drachmas.

Bluebird Appliances
A Trusted and Reknown Altera Whitegoods and Appliance Manufacturer

Bluebird Appliances PLC is a Alteran-owned multinational conglomerate corporation
headquartered in Arcton, forming one of the largest home-appliance and whitegoods companies
in Altera. With its routes dating back to 1891 by Alteran-born Joseph Lichspear and Franceska Garwood,
Bluebird was originally a product name for a small selection of home appliances manufactures. However, the
brand would begin to become extremely popular and the company was rebranded to Bluebird Appliances in 1921.

The Bluebird brand name was registered by Lichspeer & Sons Ltd in the early part of the 20th century and was primarily used for their domestic range of polished aluminium products like frying pans, kettles, tea sets and jelly moulds.

In the 1920s, the company moved into electrical appliances including kettles, irons, heaters and steamers. They pioneered the first electric element that could be immersed in water leading to a range of products based around their "immersion element", including tea urns, kettles, steamers and coffee percolators. Later, they developed and patented a unique safety cut-out for kettles.

The Bluebird brand continued its success throughout the next few decades and became synonymous with solid, Alteran manufacturing quality and innovation.

History


First registered in 1891, the company Lichspeer & Sons Ltd was formed by a partnership between Alteran-born Joseph Lichspear and Franceska Garwood; due to a law forbidding women to form companies at the time, the company could not register Franceska Garwood within the company name. The company first began in a small workshop in the outskirts of Arcton, where both Garwood and Lichspeer spent considerable time experimenting - and then small scale production - of cast kettles, frying pans and other simple household goods.

As success grew for the partnership, the company moved to a larger - albeit still small - factory in the industrial district of Arcton in 1899. With an increased workforce and production-line, this allowed Garwood and Lichspeer to step back from the hands-on manufacturing approach they had taken thus far. With Lichspeer overseeing production, Garwood turned to experimentation - hiring a small team of engineers and designers to focus on new developments. This team at first focused on the creation and new production techniques and later a new range of productions that focused around breakthrough technologies.

One of these technologies was the immersion element; which allow for the heating of water inside an appliance - rather than applying heat directly to the exterior of the appliance. Whilst the technology was refined and perfected, it first saw its introduction in household appliances in the 1920s. Featured in a range of tea urns, kettles and even household boilers - the company's success grew. It was during this time that the brand name for these appliances - Bluebird - became a household name. Wishing to ride this success - and allow investors and customers to better identify the parent company, Lichspeer & Sons Ltd was officially rebranded in 1928.

Although the company was hit hard by the numerous recessions that arose during the 20th Century, most notably in the 1930s, 60s and 80s, the company was able to hold on, continuing to innovate the Bluebird brand with new technical innovations and influential product design.

Despite several offers from various Alteran and multi-national corporations to purchase the company; most notably Conway's repeated attempts in the 1990s, and 2010s - the company remains fiercely independent and proud of its rich heritage of product development and design.

Much of the designs of the products take inspiration from Altera itself; with many features based or inspired from designs and eras from Altera's history. The few exceptions are the "Aizcona" designs, which take inspiration from several well-known artists and designs based in Aizcona's - this design is known for its blend of traditional wood craftmanship with a matt colour palette.

Getting into the coffee-machine market in the 1950s, Bluebird products enjoyed a period of exclusivity in most coffee shops - as many cafés and restaurants had Bluebird branded coffee machines and grinders in their stores. The brand fell out of fashion in the 1980s as the company attempted to reduce costs and subsequently (albeit briefly) were known to produce sub-par products. However, the company has seen a revival in the commercial sector with many small, independent coffee-shops opting for a new brand of "retro" appliances; a gimmick swiftly copied by the larger chain-coffee shops.

As the concept of "Internet of Things" continuous to gather pace, Bluebird was admittedly slow to get on board with this trend, with the now-current Chief Executive Officer of Bluebird (distant-grandson to Joseph Lichspeer), Albert Lichspeer famously stating in 2014 that "... people don't want screens and digital complexity added to ordinary household items ...". As of 2020, Bluebird offers a variety of IoT-enabled devices, including fridge/freezers, toasters, kettles and coffee machines.

RIP

I probably could replicate them in a similar style. I'd have to experiment with my own national kits too - something for the weekend perhaps?

Segentova and Athara magarat

Cronies? Who are you calling a cronie?

Segentova, Athara magarat, Wellsia, and Alteran republics

ummm You ?

Okay. Well at the moment there is no Status Quo Changer power in your area and no power that seized other islands in that area.

I think AM is/was planning to invade the area

At the moment we are planning to survive in Argus because it seems like the entire southern continent is united.

Fair enough. I'm open to involvement, I just need to figure out a justified reason to include Weinam since it's miles away geographically.

I need to standardize all of the TWItter flame accounts I've made, some haven't been used in a while and aren't formatted quite the same, but they're my favorite part of rp so I should take the time and sort them out

The latter, if I'm understanding your question correctly. I'm open to basically all countries with an imperial-esque period of history, known to have a lot of colonies.

Reading old posts and I gotta say... dammit Wellsia for being such a spring of knowledge.

Athara magarat, Wellsia, Alteran republics, Almorea, and 1 otherNhoor

To be honest, you wrote a lot of stuff there that I don't remember agreeing to in the thread. For example, the risky loans part, having my production drop by 75%... also, Ostehaar's recession was in the late 80's, not early 80's - the wars I got involved in only ended in 84-86 and my crisis carried on into the early 90's.

I always thought of the Geal market crash as the result of a few stories coinciding with one another (civil wars, political instability, economic meddling) to create an unusual event. Right now it feels a bit like the story of the Bank of Geal.
