@Red Arturoist - I had to revise the eastern French borders to fit with the XK-BAM, but thankfully I still had the original Q-BAM version to begin with

Would this be okay, @lotrian and @Gian ?

Also, from now on, second teams are open! Of course, if anyone who hasn't entered a nation yet has an idea, feel free to enter a team!

Anybody have an preferences one which of these I do?

I have a lot of ideas for a second nation.

- Varangian state in Thrace
- Britain with a weird government (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_forms_of_government) maybe a technocracy?
- An Esperanto state
- Some state where a deposed monarchy is reinstalled
- An Islamic state somewhere weird in Europe (since TTLs Europe is much more Muslim, it appears)
- A Romani state

I'm not claiming anything right now because I don't want to constrain anyone on their first nation, but just letting everyone know if I do a second nation it'll be wacky.

I would like to see a technocracy, or some weird Islamic nation. Thrace and Britain are already occupied, as you can see on the maps above.

Hmmm what about an Islamic technocracy? Like a Bulgarian State in Moldova.

 

[Capibara]

I was thinking about an islamic Ireland perhaps, if no one else has reserved this particular territory.

Spoiler: NOTES

[1] Essentially comprised of the more moderate Hussite forces (mainly Praguers, nobles, and the few Catholics and Ultraquists in Bohemia
[2] Basically, the more radical branches of the broader Hussite movement (mostly Taborites and some Orebites) that gravitated towards Calvinism, eventually becoming a Hussite-flavored version of it.
[3] Mostly from the country's German minority
[4] Typically the main stadium

Added roster for Denmark

 

[Capibara]

Done.

It would be interesting for sure. Any ideas how it would have come about?

Still working on the concept, but I was thinking on perhaps either an ambitious general from Al-Andalus taking advantage of a fractious Ireland and conquering the island or a Brian Boru-like figure converting to Islam, unyfing the country and then a centuries-long process of islamization with many remaining Celtic elements.

 

[Baconheimer]

I wonder if we could add a legend into the world map? I might add my second team and do thhat.

Form of Government: Single-party technate
Head of State/Government: Controller Vittirino Allesi (Padanian Division of Technocracy Inc.)

History: Lombardy had been an industrialized country since the 19th century, but it was never a prosperous one with an equitable division of wealth. In the aftermath of the First World War, in which Lombard soldiers died for minimal gain, a number of radical ideologies gained traction including fascism, communism, and syndicalism. The 1920s were years of streetfighting and bomb-throwing, and Lombardy was in turmoil. Enter Giacomo Carducci. A middle-class journalist, Carducci had fought with the Lombard Army in the First World War and later gone on to study in English-speaking countries. While in the Western hemisphere, he travelled in the same circles as Howard Scott, an enigmatic man who devised the concept of Technocracy. Carducci was enamoured and returned to Lombardy, where he set up the Lombard Division of Technocracy Inc., a group that both agitated for technocracy and was involved in electoral politics.

Giacomo Carducci​

The Lombard Technocrats took the country by storm. Technocratic streetfighters (members of the Society of the Monad, an oath-bound fraternal organization) patrolled the streets and brawled with socialists. Adopting socially conservative policies, they made inroads in working class neighborhoods that mistrusted the communists. When the Depression hit, Carducci was catapulted to celebrity status and made speeches before thousands. In the 1934 elections, Technocracy Inc. won a majority in parliament and set about to reform the country along techcnocratic lines. The monarchy was abolished and Giacomo Carducci was installed as Controller of the Padanian Technate. Carducci was, unfortunately, gunned down in 1937 by monarchists, and succeeded by Filippo Carboni. The Technate has survived to the present day and has moderated somewhat. It is not wholly free and can be classified as a single-party democracy.

Oh dear. Europe's getting a little crowded...

Yes, it is.

As I understand it Ireland and the Ukraine area are claimed and we have to fit five other nations in what's left.
