How many countries are there in Europe? Is there a European Union of some sort? If so, when was it created and what does it include?
 
How many countries are there in Europe?
20, if you include the Russian nations.
Is there a European Union of some sort? If so, when was it created and what does it include?
European Union? No. The European nations are too different, there are 'free-trade zones' however. For example there's the German Zone, which includes Austria and Brandenburg, or the Nordic Zone. Britain and France share a zone, seeing as our King is the Duke of Normandy it seems fitting.
 
So, is Normandy independent from France? What about Brittany?

How many Russian nations are there?

How big is the Royal Army? How was it started and by whom?
What is the primary weapon used by the Royal Army?
Have tanks been invented?
 
Would you kindly give us a brief description of each of the European nations and current issues influencing them?

What are the northernmost and southernmost points of the Empire of Mexico?

When was the Kingdom of Jerusalem established?
 
Do any of these names sound familiar:
George Washington
John Adams
Samuel Adams
Thomas Jefferson
Alexander Hamilton
John Hancock
Napoleon Boneaparte
Oliver Cromwell
Ulysses Grant
Robert Lee

I believe that most of the men I named above are from the new world, Cromwell and Boneaparte being the exceptions.

Are slavery or serfdom practiced in any nations?

What weapons are used in the Royal Army?

How often do you travel, and when you do where do you go?
 
So, is Normandy independent from France? What about Brittany?
No, Normandy is a Duchy within France and the Duke of Normandy is one of the electors of the King of France. It's a relic of history. Brittany is also a Duchy and an elector.
How many Russian nations are there?
3.
How big is the Royal Army? How was it started and by whom?
What is the primary weapon used by the Royal Army?
Have tanks been invented?
The Royal Army has around a million troops, around 400,000 are active troops (of which I am one) and 600,000 are reserve troops. The Royal Army was started by Henry X of England in 1632 during the Great French War. The primary weapon used now by the Army is the submachine gun. Tanks have been invented, however only in the past three decades.
Would you kindly give us a brief description of each of the European nations and current issues influencing them?
What kind of description would you like? The current issues are really as follows:
Britain: Irish terrorists in Connaught.
Iberia: Their African holdings are faced with potential war against numerous Islamic nations that border them.
France: Attempting to become fully united again, the past century has been quite peaceful however it looks like war may occur soon.
Austria: Still having problems with their minorities, primarily in the Balkans, Hungary has actually integrated well with Austria in the past century.
Sweden: Nothing's happening here really, except slight caution over the Grand Duchy of Muscovy who may attack Finland soon.
Denmark: Iceland wants to become independent, that's about it for them.
Burgundy: The main proponent of keeping France divided, so they're gearing up for war too.
Latin Empire: Huge problems with Muslim terrorists within their boundaries. They still displace Muslims in favour of Greeks. It's rumoured that for the past 50 years they've been sterilising those of the Islamic faith, which is why they've been encouraging Greeks and other Christians in the nation to have many children.
Italy: The current Pope has only recently been elected and so we're not sure about his stance on the Muslims in Tunis yet.
What are the northernmost and southernmost points of the Empire of Mexico?
Northernmost: 40th Parallel North, southern most is border with Honduras and El Salvador.
When was the Kingdom of Jerusalem established?
De facto 1756, de jure 1764. After the '10th Crusade'.
what is your favorite genre of music?
Classical is making a comeback, however I also like the kind of beat music that's come about in recent years, none of that hardcore stuff.
OOC: Is the first PoD in the 16th Century?
OOC: Yes, but there are minor sub-PODs.
Do any of these names sound familiar:
George Washington
John Adams
Samuel Adams
Thomas Jefferson
Alexander Hamilton
John Hancock
Napoleon Boneaparte
None of these sound similar.
Oliver Cromwell
I vaguely remember him being an astute captain in the Royal Army during the Great French War.
Ulysses Grant
Robert Lee
These don't sound similar either.
Are slavery or serfdom practiced in any nations?
Serfdom is still practiced by Muscovy, sadly. However after the Singulist movement came to movement all the slavery and serfdom in Europe and the Americas had ended by around the early 1800's (though some pockets of it remained until the late 1800's).
What weapons are used in the Royal Army?
Sub-machine guns, machine guns, rifles etc.
How often do you travel, and when you do where do you go?
[/QUOTE]
I travel a lot due to me being in the army, which takes me to Poland usually. However when I travel for fun it's to Iberia... Or when it's near the Holy Time I go to Italy to see the Pope.
What is status of Central Asia ?
Central Asia is (pardon my French) a clusterfuck of nations that hate each other. With constant Islamic and Christian influences they've hated each other and currently there's a war going on there right now. However it's all independent, the closest they came to unity was working together against multiple Russo-Polish, Persian and Turkish invasions.
What is status of Anatolia ?
As in who owns it politically? Turkey does, however it's a rump state and is incredibly divided.
 
What can you tell me about --

Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor
Henry VIII of England
Francis I of France

OOC: Is the first PoD European? Is it prior to 1550?
 
Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor
Ah yes, Charles V, the son of Emperor Philip I the Reformer. Charles V
Henry VIII of England
A fine King of England, his daughters marriage to the Hapsburg dynasty began the Hapsburg dynasty in England that still survives to this very day.
Francis I of France
Francis I was actually quite a good King of France, he just had no hope of standing up against his neighbours, especially Charles V.
OOC: Is the first PoD European? Is it prior to 1550?
OOC: Yes, it's that Emperor Maximilian I dies in 1502, allowing his son Philip of Spain to take over as Holy Roman Emperor and he then reformed the Church, which his son Charles continued.
 
Hey guys!

It would seem that I've found a crack in the Universe to talk to you through, so why not, eh? Ask me anything you like and I'll try and answer you.

OOC: :p Couldn't resist

Do you have automobiles like we do? What are the most popular models?

What is the status of space exploration, if any, in your world?

Are home computers popular and do you have anything like our internet?
