Hi Everybody!
In this thread, we each come up with our own alternate country, by giving facts and stats about it, as well as a brief history. The key is, that all the countries exist in the same alternate world. So please try to be realistic and read all posts before posting. it wouldn't make sense to have a Europe ruled by The modern Roman Empire, and another one ruled by the Greater German Reich.
In fact, it would work better if you only sticked to creating smaller alternate countries, as oppossed to big wank-style ones, since the more land you claim the less their is for other people to make a contribution.
I'll start...
The Dominion of Newfoundland and Labrador
Commonly known as: Newfoundland and Labrador
Capital: St. John's
Population: 500,824
Head of State: Prime Minster Daniel Williams
Currency: The North American Dollar
In Existance From: 1937-Present
Histroy: Newfoundland and Labrador was a colony of the British Empire until it gained status as a Dominion along with many other former countries in the thirties. Although their was some talk of joining in a larger union with other former colonies, most Newfounlanders and Labradorians were against this, with former Prime Minister Joseph Smallwood famously saying "We'll go our own way." Today Newfoundland and Labrador have seen a slight growth in terms of their economy, with large reserves of oil
having been discoverd in Labrador over the past decade.
*********************************************
For now I would like to stick with countries that exist in the present. Eventually when thing get fleshed out, I may allow for past countries to be described.
Edit: Feel free to add maps and flags and coats of arms for your countries. Creating multiple countries is fine, but try to keep some room open for other people.
