Map Game Handbook

This article was ported from another wiki

A map game is a game where the player controls a nation or group of people. These map games are characterized by their use of maps, along with an alternative history or alternative future aspect. There can be a maximum of five active map games at one time.

Types of Map Games
There are a number of different types of map games, which can also be broken down into categories. The two types which often appear on this Wiki are thread-based games and article-based games.

Thread-based games
Thread-based games are, as the name suggests, played on a thread. The most popular example is Mappers In The Wild. In thread games, the first player (usually the creator) posts the map along with his turn. Then another player can join the game, edit the map, and post it along with their turn. This goes on and on, and there is no turn order. Turns are first-come-first-served. Players also cannot post two turns in a row. These games can sometimes be very fast-paced, and so a disadvantage is that you may leave it overnight and discover in the morning that the entire world has been conquered by one player. However, the fast-paced nature of the game also suits itself for players who do not want to wait for everyone else to do their turns, such as in article-based games.

Article-based games
Article-based games are played through articles. Two very popular examples are The Future and A World of War. These map games are turn-based, so every turn each player must play one turn. Each turn usually lasts one year in-game, although this varies between map games. Unlike thread-based games, article-based games have dedicated staff who administrate the game. They have staff for the map, for NPC events, for moderating turns, and for the overall management of the game. Players can be warned, kicked, and banned by staff for not following the rules. Some games require codewords or other actions in order to join the game and some place restrictions on what you can play as based on your activity or your edits. These games can sometimes be very slow and are more prone to becoming inactive than thread-based games.

Basic rules
In order to moderate and standardize map games, these rules have been created which every map game should follow.

Thread-based games

 * 1) You can only play one turn at a time. Two turns in a row is not allowed.

Article-based games

 * 1) The owner is the creator of the game or the user with the most power. In some games, the owner may leave the game, and so one of the administrators may take the owner position.
 * 2) The administrator has the same powers as the owner. However, owners can demote and promote administrators.
 * 3) Turn moderators moderate turns. They can also work with players to solve crises and absolve players from getting into trouble with the owner and/or administrators, as well as helping the map maker make the map and the NPC event writer write the events correctly.
 * 4) NPC event writers write the NPC events. They work in close conjunction with turn moderators and mapmakers in order to correctly determine the actions of the non-player-controlled nations.
 * 5) Mapmakers create the map for each turn. They get help making changes to the map by the turn moderator and also help the NPC event writer write the NPC events.
 * 6) Hierarchy of Power - who can demote/promote who.
 * 7) Owner
 * 8) Administrator
 * 9) Turn moderator; NPC event writer; Mapmaker
 * 10) Only staff can edit the page. However, some map games may allow for players to input their turns onto the page itself instead of waiting for staff to do it.
 * 11) Overpowered turns are not permitted. For example, making your nation or group of people extremely powerful within a few turns, or possessing WMDs.
 * 12) Don't be stupid. Examples such as Paraguay invading Mongolia.
 * 13) You can join as anything. This includes vassals or rebel groups for standard nation games. However, you may be limited in what actions you can do.
 * 14) Staff control technological growth. You cannot decide to randomly skip 10 years of research in the period of one turn. This is why staff will control how technological advancements work in the game, in whatever way they see fit.
 * 15) You may need to say a specific phrase in order to enter the game. For example, saying "ilovechicken" or saying the nation of group of people you want to play as backwards (i.e. ailognoM).
 * 16) Staff are always right, regardless of what you may think. Even if you think a staff member's action is wrong, it's their game, and their rules. Do not take this opportunity to create drama, and instead either live with the disagreements or leave the map game.
 * 17) If it's a meme map game, these rules will be very flexible. So don't complain if the "Dank Weaboonia Republic" is too overpowered. Meme games are unimportant.

Turn Layouts
Article-based games vary in the way the turns are laid out. Some use the paragraph, while others use a tiered system. All examples below are taken from The Future: Eve of War.

Paragraph example
Pan-American Federation [Mexico]: Economy, infrastructure and military improve. Population continues to grow very fast for Aztec, Mayan and Native American peoples, not for Spanish, white and black people. More residential buildings, cultural and public buildings, commercial buildings, militaristic buildings, educational buildings, factories with less pollution and mining plants are built. Continues building residential, educational and commercial groundscrapers and offices under these buildings in all cities, in hope to make enough place for new-born citizens. Solar plants are built on deserts, while wind farms are built on hills, deserts and farms. On Mexican Moon Colony, the population continues to grow faster and the settlement builds more residential, cultural, public, commercial and educational groundscrapers and factories with less pollution, oxygen separators and mining plants. Meanwhile, reach on large spaceships continues.

Tiered example
Petersburg Confederation:
 * Economy: Nothing much about the economy.
 * Government: The new issues about the Japanese revolts has caused several factions in the PC government to start arguing over what to do to settle the issue. Most, however, wants to attain a status quo in Japan, but with more governmental control on the puppet state.
 * Military: An additional Legion is added to Japan making the numbers of soldiers 300,000 now fighting in southern Honshu IN A DESPERATE ATTEMPT TO CRUSH WHATS LEFT OF THE REBELS. After Sweden fails to make peace with Finland, PC sends 500,000 people (ten Legions) into eastern Sweden, with an attempt at a landing invasion from Russian Gotland to Swedish Stockholm.
 * Diplomacy: Still demands Japan to assist in helping the rebels anyways, not to mention looking forward to crushing Sweden Resistance against Finland

An absolutely ridiculous tiered example
Tilean Confederacy (Rumano-Bavarian Union) (I've written this since the start of the turn so there are inconsistencies and may have OP content)
 * Summary: (Bold is territorial change/occupation by Tilea or important)
 * Military:
 * Technology: Railgun V (codenamed as the Peafowl Mistress; military codename is R-V/RR-49) is now about to be mass-produced, any existing ships will be renovated or decommissioned for building a new one if it’s obsolete. The other projects are still being commenced and researched, including the mysterious project called “Volta” which the government and the national intelligence agency RNIC wants to conceal its details until it is officially announced it’s done. Railgun VI (codenamed as Gagarin’s Rifle; military codename is R-VI/RR-60) is now onto research extensively and should be done around 2051 or 2052 as second priority. LASER research goes up again
 * Project Volta (2041-): The project is still ongoing for five years now, no extra information is being announced yet. However the military decided to say that a new munition will be in development this year as to enhance the military equipment by strength, revealing to be either a weapon for users or possibly a tank-artillery hybrid but the RNIC and military deny those claims made by civilians.
 * Project Punic (2043-2046): Railgun batteries are done (1.5x more powerful than its predecessor) and the project formally ends.
 * Project Dandolo (2043-): After reports saying Mosley became ruler of the Angevine Order, the Ruman military is considering to see if the AO has research on it but not officially stated publicly as they don’t even know Mosley’s true identity. Onto the internal project, most of the super-soldiers are stabilised and able to fight for the confederation but they are considered to be unstable still at least at a lesser extent. Next year the project will probably be done for the super-soldiers part (genetic modification to make it stable entirely after few days becoming a super-soldier) but after that they will constantly attempt to find a way to take down one super-soldier in another project by simply shooting two to three shots by one regular soldier under the name “Project Messe”.
 * Project Lazarus (2045-): The third version of the Ruman exosuits are continued to be developed. They are also announced to be deployed to the South German military here, even though they have being essentially merged into one army thanks to the Tilean Confederacy. Currently the armour is still available for the bodyguards of the Emperor, generals and designated soldiers still, but more soldiers are using it than last year.
 * Project Voden [AT-ATs and AT-STs] (2045-): As the CSA is commencing and continuing their research on those AT-ATs and AT-STs, the Tilean military and scientists from Rumas along with the partially done Bavarian project for the AT-AT have decided to announce Project Voden. The actual development started around 2045 but the project was announced at 2046. So far only prototypes of those AT-ATs are in development and would be subject to be done at least two to three years’ time, the other type AT-STs are still in development and would start its prototype process next year.
 * Summary
 * Infantry / Royal Tilean Army (RTA/RET): Since the merge of South German and Ruman forces, the infantry rose from 3.3 million to 5.25 million (4.25 million are from Rumas and the remaining fraction is Bavarian/South German) this year. Due to the Pyrenean Civil War, an extra 600,000 soldiers are conscripted in the duchies of Skavland and Tyranizia-Liguria, those who joined the army had six month training last year, pushing this up to 5.85 million this year but due to the same war, 190,000 soldiers died deducting the total forces back to 5.76 million soldiers. All soldiers have Railgun IV (aka Machiavelli) but they are becoming obsolete and since mass-production Railgun V takes up three-fourths of the armed forces (aka The Peafowl Mistress). LASER weapons is now used by one-sixth of the military and the production of those old outdated laser weapons invented in the late 2030s designed to take flesh and thick clothes out continues again. Grenades and other items are becoming essentially common for them, let alone the experimental EMP grenade is only used by the Ruman Emperor’s bodyguards though they are useless but they do serve the role of “when Battle of Rome has started”
 * Ground / Tilean Ground Forces (TGF/TFT): Since the South German and Ruman forces merge into the Tilean Army, the ground forces significantly increase as well the production of it. They have at least 2129 railgun tanks (all of them are from a Ruman project called the Eagle [aka R-38] and the rest are either generic; one-thirteenth of them are the Lonely Dragon [R-46A] which is the Railgun V version), at least 10,211 artillery (all of it are the South German-made the Iron Cane [SGA-III] but an experimental RA-IV [The Forehead Missile] will be deployed next year as a third version of the railgun artillery) and five experimental AT-ATs (“Kirk’s Weapon”). Around 960 supply trucks and 1300 transport trucks are also in the military but their production is growing due to WWIII starting soon.
 * Air / Royal Tilean Air Fleet (RTAF/RAT): Since the South German and Ruman merged into one army, this also increased. They also increased the production of bombers in case of WWIII and are extensively used for the Pyrenean Civil War. Major Tilean industries that produce planes are usually situated in Rome, Milan, Florence, Naples, Turin, Zurich, Achaia and Munich. 697 fighter planes (The Contemporary Fortress [introduced since 2042; Fighter VI]), 756 bombers (The Etruscan [introduced since 2043; Bomber VI]), 1820 helicopters and 1498 transport planes (The Wings of Cumulonimbus [Transport V]; can hold 30 soldiers in one plane).
 * Navy / Royal Tilean Fleet (RTN/RFT): Unlike the ones above, this hasn’t got any changes due to South Germany landlocked. Military ports New Venice, Genete, Naples, Syracuse, Carthage and Istra have continued to improve their building efficiency and are now quickly rushing through thanks to heavily funding. Submarines are also being produced a lot to prepare surprise invasions once WWIII starts by other nations, they don’t really want to step ahead. Five aircraft carriers, 79 battleships/destroyers (The Alpini [RS-465]; one-fourth are The Suricate Musketeer [Railgun V version of The Alpini; RS-465V]), 165 submarines (The Confronted [RSU-498]; one-fifth are the Dauntless Knight [RSU-510]), 96 frigates (Apollo [RS-392]; it is thought that the Anarchist is expected to be deployed next year), eight other combat vessels (generic or outdated ones) and 176 transport ships (The Hitchhiker [RT-301]).
 * Robotics: Continues to invest and build large robots, as well as resisting EMPs (about two years and it will be done). Currently they have 80,000 robot soldiers and 19,000 of them are in a battle against the fascist Occitans but they are not involved directly when Alessandro had initiated Operation Deadlock but instead they are deployed during the battle of Barcelona and Tarragona.
 * Super soldiers: Only 500 are in service and expected to increase to 1000 as scheduled by next year. These soldiers are not ready for the Pyrenean Civil War due to some instabilities but do make a serve as a bodyguard of the Emperor of Rumas.
 * Space / Royal Tilean Space Forces (RTSF/RSFT): At least 500 space marines are deployed onto the Moon now and expect some heavier equipment in development to be deployed in the next two years. They are still at a defensive stance and now at least 25 are sent to Mars due to Esceosia sending their troops here and copying them would be quite a movement to defend ourselves against other colonial forces if we got into war, but thankfully, that didn’t happen.
 * Conflicts: The clock remains the same as 22:59:30 for now according to Tilean experts as WWIII gets close. If Rumas were to be the United States of America, then it would be at DEFCON III or even II.
 * Operation Deadlock/Pyrenean Civil War (2045-) (WARNING WALL OF TEXT): By 2046 the front for Pyrenea would be west and east and with the initial 200,000 troops being sent and with huge support given by Tilea. Few Ruman and Bavarian legions numbering 600,000 in total are sent to fight against the huge numbers of 400,000 mixed soldiers, those legions are trained for only six months due to conscription enforced by the WWIII Protocol introduced two years ago otherwise 40% of the army are properly trained before the civil war. Alessandro “Cassandria”, the head of Operation Deadlock has decided to start plan a two year operation to liberate Pyrenea / Occitania from fascist rule all by himself with voluntary Ruman, Bavarian and Occitan armies (and Esceosian) while asking the East Occitan government to move to Rumas as exiled government if his mission to liberate failed. All Tilean soldiers are supplied from Genete, Gallia-Nicaea (Nice) and Turin which are key cities and also supply the East Occitan soldiers as well shown on the map.
 * January-June 2046: Alessandro and his able-generals concentrates on Montpellier first before simply heading towards Bordeaux. His personal legion “Caesarion” scouts the area at numbers of hundreds at 19th February. The city is basically militarised and has a lot of fascist soldiers along with those Iberian and Angevine volunteers given here. The East Occitan and Tilean troops then ambushed at 25th February on all sides, although Alessandro is unaware those highways bordering AO and Iberia is giving them supplies and influence direct at this time, they were able to capture Montpellier by 5th April. The Fascist Occitan army were able to stop Alessandro’s legion, allies and voluntary workers in time while this happened, stopping the front at Beziers by June 2046 but the Bavarian division led by Gregory Krulgescht captured Clermont-Ferrand with little resistance at May but traps set up by them caused casualties among Krulgescht’s legion “Bayern”.
 * July-December 2046: Alessandro and Gregory was unable to capture any further than near Beziers, but are able to take much of the rural areas of Pyrenea in the north by Gregory himself. Commander Mario di Monaco and the fleet commander Vittorio Riccardi lands at the Balearic Islands with a division of 60,000 soldiers. Eventually they finally took the Balearic Islands for themselves as most of the armed soldiers are actually fascist. Riccardi then directs to land at Catalonia, with Mario landing near Barcelona with his 50,000 soldiers. Later a reinforcement of 100,000 soldiers land at Tarragona and 150,000 in Barcelona at September. Due to being a naval invasion, supplies given are shot down by Iberian navy which Tilea alleged has ships stationed around Gibraltar, Malaga and Valencia ready to take down the Tilean convoy ships to supply the army with resources (munitions). Air strikes are also the main factor of taking those renowned ships down, especially the transport. By 27th November Barcelona is captured and 12th December Tarragona is captured as well, meaning by the end of the year, Alessandro and di Monaco could aim for Perpignan and Andorra at the first half of the year then around July, Toulouse and the end of the year Bordeaux.
 * Summary: Due to Operation Deadlock commenced by Alessandro himself, with di Monaco, Krulgescht, Riccardi, Florenza (expected to arrive next year with a 400,000 reinforcement) and East Occitan general Petevarde (I do know what to say) decided to help in this campaign, at least 190,000 Tilean soldiers died and 88,100 East Occitan soldiers died as well but the western side hit a blow with only 126,400, probably they are trying to keep their well-trained and loyal men at Bordeaux, Toulouse and other core strongholds in the west and leave it easy in the east with occasional well-trained ones. Catalonia at this situation is expected to become the same as Bordeaux would have. At least 1.29 million Tilean soldiers are in this war and an estimated 290,000 East Occitan soldiers are in the battle.
 * TL;DR: Tilea and East Occitania are able to take back Montpellier, Barcelona, Tarragona and the Balearic Islands through a bloody year long war and 1.29 million Tilean soldiers are currently deployed in the Occitan front.
 * Operation “Bene”/The Scandinavian War (2045-): We don’t know if Sweden’s threat is real or is a threatening joke to demand peace, but we continue giving in aid and send an extra 70,000 soldiers to keep the front stagnant and prevent the Swedish capturing Oslo and Copenhagen easily. If a nuclear weapon launches and probably most likely they would aim Oslo and Copenhagen, evacuation will be planned by the end of the year using airships but aid would continue in case.
 * Operation “Britannia”/Anglo-Scottish War (2045-2046): Kind of ended, but we won’t give up on liberating Scotland but for now Angevine Union is getting stronger due to alleged super soldiers and we decide to pull off for now.
 * Austrian Civil War (2046-): Because of a war going on between the anti-fascists thanks to all sides of their borders influenced by anti-fascists directly on it, the Tilean government decides to stage a coup on the anti-fascists, turning them into a puppet state (a brief one is given at Diplomacy – Austria [Anti-Fascist]). We also attempt to increase relations to attempt increasing hopes to join the Tilean Confederacy and given them military support by numbers of 70,000 “volunteer” soldiers
 * Military Intervention against ISIC: Even though the Islamic State will capitulate by two years, Tilea has decided to intervene and send 50,000 “volunteer” soldiers to aid CIO to liberate the Malay Peninsula and defend Bangkok.
 * Preparing for WWIII: We continue to prepare our defences and offences for WWIII. WWIII comes to a close, tensions are likely to go crescendo that the Tilean Confederacy has started to mass-produce and fund military quite more often this year. Navy is placed near the Pyrenean, Iberian and Balkarian sea borders in case of WWIII, the Pyrenean part is in case the fascists manage to take over East Occitania.
 * Science and Technology
 * Space Program (RTRIS)
 * General: The merge of RSAR and BRIA has finally come to a solution after a series of collaborations, it is announced that both space agencies will merge into the Royal Tilean Research Institute for Space is founded on 13th January, 2046. With both combined, the RTRIS now has at least 7800 employees, currently. Although there are is nothing to say any further, they sent out workers (robot ones) to mine Mercury just like other countries for an international project and for Project Helios and even the space elevator – just note that many people agreed on either the coast of REA or the ocean, not Congo (even if Starring were to be the original suggester).
 * Mars:
 * Aries/Schiaparelli/Nova Campania – Settlement program: Nova Campania grows, at least an extra 50 scientists (quarter of them Bavarian) are sent up here and agricultural yields begin to grow in the thin atmosphere as well as the knowledge of how to obtain water from soil. Some scientists are beginning to consider exploring the barren desert and find any possible “ice” to solve the Martian mysteries of how water had existed in liquid form. Meanwhile, 25 soldiers from Tilea are unexpectedly sent here by military orders just two months after the second batch of scientists arrived here and telling them privately to a scientist explaining “Esceosia has deployed a defensive force here and we should do the same”.
 * The Curfew – Mining program: Continues to invest equipment, by December they begin to launch the program immediately by sending those tools to the Tilean scientists to assemble those mining equipment and even put the location far away from Nova Campania (about 10-20km away to be presume) using rovers and transport they were given. Promotion of this will start next year as RTRIS announced to encourage at least 100 employees to get here by next year due to engine systems finally displaying four months of travel being put between Mars and Earth instead of six last year.
 * The Moon:
 * The Praetor – Mining program: Our employees is raised from 1200 to 3400 this year and an estimate of 700 billion dollars’ worth of helium is used for export to earn income. Nothing more is changed though but the salary is raised to 10,000 INT per half year.
 * Alpini/Nova Napoli – Settlement program: As more people are coming in due to terraforming committed by REA and AU, it is thought that by now 400 settlers and 200 scientists are in this settlement and it would be confirmed that the scientist population would be lowered and immigration would soon be prioritised due to the atmosphere nearly done but it would be low-quality so keeping a handful of scientists would be enough.
 * The Hadron Collider and LASER Research: LASER research continues further to develop our “second batch of weapons”.
 * Project Lambda: Development continues onto it, there is nothing more to be told but by the next two years it would get into its final state as the developer NeptuneGames has only 40-50 employees working for this game and it’s closed alpha.
 * Infrastructure: All below are low priority by text.
 * Cities (Duchy): The surge of Scandinavian, Pyrenean, Namibian and Austrian refugees led to a rising growth of Ruman cities rapidly. The Bavarian cities however remain the same but has usual immigrants. Most refugees coming into Rumas or Bavaria are usually Occitan or Austrian with occasional Scandinavian.
 * Rumas (Serene Kingdom of Rumas)
 * Rome (Duchy of Latium): The population grows from 18.05 million to 19.24 million. The local government refuses Esceosian Technologies to build here, even if they were to move onto Munich, Bavaria and Rumas is considered as “the Tilean Confederacy”. The local government also demands the government to do a senate vote whether to accept this. Most refugees that are not Occitan or Austrian moved to Rome.
 * Tower of Colombo: It continues being built, it reaches around 500 meters by the end of the year and the next two years, it should be done, but the renting and acquisition will be made next year for the lower ground. The floors are about four meters apart, resulting 300 floors once it’s done, reducing the population fitted into the soon-to-be the tallest building of Rumas to 8600 as the project has announced.
 * Roman Revivalism: Continues to be used in mainland Rumas and Tunisia. In Bavaria, only neoclassical architecture is used however but are heavily influenced by ancient Roman architecture the closer to Ruman borders, which meant the Duchies of Baden and Wurttemberg are a combination of those German neoclassical and ancient Roman architecture.
 * Istra (Trieste) (Duchy of Istria): Istra grows from eight million to 8.74 million. Unlike the neighbouring city of Nova Venezia (New Venice), Istra instead has the so-called alleged Croatian refugees from the east by numbers of only 2000, border controls in the Istrian province are now being enhanced until these fascist dissidents are being crushed.
 * Nova Venezia (Duchy of Tyranizia/Veneto): Population grew from 1.65 million to 2.32 million. The city encourages people to repopulate the lost region here, but since war is taking out the Pyreneans (mostly eastern ones) and the Scandinavians, the city is turning itself into an Occitan-Tyranid/Ruman city with a small diaspora of Scandinavians that take up only 0.5% of the city. The refugees will soon be assimilated to become predominantly Ruman by the next few years.
 * Naples (Duchy of Campania): Population grew from 4.38 million to 5.01 million. Not much is changed, but the Occitan refugees have arrived here quite a while.
 * Genete (Duchy of Piedmont-Liguria): Population grew from 3.60 million to 4.11 million. The city of Genete is now experiencing a lot of Occitan refugees from the west, huge camps were set around the outskirts of Genete where people were resorted to drink sea water or bottled supplied by the government of Piedmont-Liguria.
 * Syracuse (Duchy of Sicilicium): Population grew from 1.5 million to 1.84 million.
 * Abraia (Ancona) (Duchy of Illuccia): Population grew from to 3.2 million to 3.76 million. Currently one of the fast growing cities in Tilea and is predicted to reach five million by the next three years, there is a small influx of refugees that live here.
 * Bologna (Duchy of Trantio): Population grew from 5.02 million to 5.21 million. a
 * Milan (Duchy of Piedmont-Liguria): Population grew from 5.29 million to 5.45 million. Although it isn’t growing fast by reproduction, influx of refugees mostly Occitan came here.
 * Turin (Duchy of Piedmont-Liguria): Population grew from 3.14 million to 3.26 million. Unlike Turin, although part of the same duchy, the city receives less refugees than Milan or Genete.
 * Bozano (Duchy of Tyranizia/Veneto): Population grew from 1.05 million to 1.24 million. The city becomes an outpost “for training purposes”, with few High German (Austrian ones) civilians living here, they are expected to aid the anti-fascist rebels in Austria secretly through the Second Iron Curtain.
 * Lubiana (Duchy of Istria): Population grew from 2.24 million to 2.35 million. Similar case with Istra.
 * Valletta (Duchy of Sicilicum): Population grew from 400,000 to 490,000.
 * Messina (Duchy of Ionica and Duchy of Sicilicum): Population of both Messina-Calabria and Messina-Sicilia grew from 2.54 million to 2.68 million.
 * Geneva (Duchy of Skavland): Population drops from 2.45 million to 2.38 million. Most of the scientists stationed in Geneva withdraw after the Hadron Collider is shut down but civilian population grew.
 * Bern (Duchy of Skavland): Population grew from 1.9 million to 2.03 million.
 * Zurich (Duchy of Skavland): Population grew from 2.87 million to 3.08 million.
 * Carthage (Tunis) (Duchy of Carthage): Population grew from 6.1 million to 6.69 million. The city is expected to be mostly Catholic by the end of 2047 and is currently one of the fast growing cities in Tilea but no refugees are coming to Carthage, though.
 * Sfax (Duchy of Sfax): Population grew from 1.8 million to 1.97 million. Similar case of Carthage.
 * Tataouine (Duchy of Tataouine): Population grew from 1.12 to 1.28 million. Unlike Carthage or Sfax, the city remains largely Muslim but the Catholic population is steadily increasing.
 * Famigaccio (Freetown) (New Perugia):
 * Luccani (Kiffa) (New Trente):
 * Modecca (Lubango) (New Bari):
 * Pavona (Lubumbshi) (New Abraia):
 * Hamitonio (Bermuda):
 * Doualachia (Camerun):
 * Lychia (New Liguria):
 * Bavaria (Kingdom of Bavaria): South Germany renames to Bavaria once again.
 * Munich (Duchy of Bavaria): Population grew from 4.85 million to 5.31 million.
 * Landshut (Duchy of Bavaria): Population grew from 2.1 million to 2.54 million.
 * Nuremberg (Duchy of Drakenhaftland): Population grew from 2.45 million to 2.98 million.
 * Achaia (Stuttgart) (Duchy of Wurttemberg): Population grew from 2.74 to 3.39 million.
 * Agriculture: Yields continue to grow, terraforming of New Trente continues as much of the land is now 78% filled of vegetation. After the takeover of Senegal, they expanded into New Norsca for terraforming the region into a fertile land, meaning they could harvest huge yields once New Trente and New Norsca terraforming has done. For Tunisia, it remains desolate as they want this as a tourist destination and also as an urban region rather than a rural region like the Tilean colonies have.
 * Nuclear shelters:
 * Colonies:
 * Ruman Morocco: After last year of discussions, they decide to give up their colony in Morocco and give it to FSNA without any charges. Before it was given the population grew to 9.3 million.
 * New Perugia (West Africa): Immigration continues and is one of the fastest growing colonies of Tilea due to “their fertility rate being high”. Capital is Famigaccio and current population is 25.4 million.
 * New Trente (Mauritania): Terraforming continues, immigrants flock here due to promotion of it being “a paradise” according to the colonial government of New Trente. Capital is Luccani and current population is 13.74 million.
 * New Bari (South Angola): Capital is Modecca and current population is 23.91 million.
 * New Abraia (Southeast DRC): Becomes similar to European standards. Capital is Pavonia. Population is 13.55 million.
 * New Marche (Northern Mozambique and Malawi): The modernisation project is nearly done and by next year it may have a similar standard to European cities. Capital is Meneco and population is currently 4.74 million.
 * Camerun: Modernisation of the city has begun. Capital is Douala and population is 27.12 million.
 * New Liguria (Togo): Modernisation of the city has begun. Capital is Lychia and population is 15.98 million.
 * New Norsca (Senegal): Although NKU has entirely modernised the region, they want to take the step even more and terraform the area since New Norsca is semi-arid. Since the decline of Scandinavians here, the Ruman population rapidly grew through assimilation and immigration. Population is currently 7.12 million.
 * Bermuda: Small military fleet is now sent near the CSA water territories. Population of Bermuda in overall is 0.34 million.
 * Government
 * Border controls: Austrian border measures have being increased due to civil war, French borders are still closed.
 * The Second Iron Curtain: The Second Iron Curtain construction stops due to the Austrian Civil War and their coup is performed, however the wall continues to exist throughout the year even if rebels were to rise among the borders.
 * Political parties:
 * The Royal Family:
 * Diplomacy: Isolation from relationships is ongoing but still maintains relationships on their “mutual allies”.
 * East Occitania: Actively supports them with weapons.
 * FSNA: The colony of Ruman Morocco is ceded to FSNA without even asking
 * Esceosia: We also try to maintain our relations as usual.
 * United States of the Middle East: “Accepts the alliance”, but still not trusting USME quite well this year
 * Austria (Anti-Fascist): Rumas and Bavaria secretly stages coup with the rebel group. If that is successful, we would influence them indirectly after the civil war, as well giving aid, money and military support to them. It could also mean they would become a vassal and a monarchy (due to the Tilean Confederacy, both Bavaria and Rumas a monarchy) once the civil war ends.

 * Education: Education is still top-notch and in mainland Rumas, at least all of the people are able to read and write by hand. Overall literacy is around 95.6%, due to native immigration, these natives are thought to be illiterate but are taught by a program established by New Bari and other Southern African colonies owned by Rumas.
 * Demographics:
 * Population: Population grows from 213.6 million in mainland (incl. Tunisia) to 230.4 million this year. Outside of Mainland Rumas, the population grew from 74.32 million to 114.4 million this year due to them taking Senegal, Togo and part Cameroon. Since the formation of the Tilean Confederacy, the population in mainland Europe and Tunisia is 253 million (39.4 million and 213.6 million combined).

The birth rate is around 2.59 per couple due to their African colonies having a high rate of 3.89 per couple but is steadily declining.

The Occitan refugees aren’t assimilated this year yet, due to them having current special citizenship performed by basic background checks but are hitting the Ruman cities in the duchy of Piedmont-Liguria and partially the city of New Venice. Current demographics show the current ethnic groups as 68.5% Ruman, 13% Tunisian, 12.1% High German, 5.5% Bavarian (Rumano-German), 0.7% Occitan and 0.2% other (Slavic) in mainland Tilea and Tunisia (still considered de jure mainland Tilea) combined.
