My map is minimalist, Bucky's is geographic and detailed. His is pretty, mine looks more in line with a Wikipedia article map.

Send me an example map you like if you want. I am not an artist, so have realistic expectations, please.

Size of the contiguous United States in land mass between California and Japan with the bering strait lining up perfectly with my nations geographical center.

AquilaJordyn wrote:Also, map style. Do you want a political map, with a minimalistic style as you see in usual political maps, or what?

Yes :D that would be perfect

....bro how do you expect me to fit a U.S. sized place in the Pacific? Also, from a lore perspective, while I get what you are going for, that doesn't make sense I think if you want a true-to-life superpower. Since you are an island chain, wouldn't being spread that far out just limit you? My nation is a series of islands.being relatively close, my people can bridge straits of water, and require a smaller navy to defend themselves. The more spread out you are, the harder to defend, the harder to settle, and also, larger doesn't mean more productive. Japan is much smaller than Russia, but wealthier. Maybe shoot for islands the size of California, if you ask me. I'll do what you want, but I think that a huge island chain across the Pacific would be less stellar than you think.

My friend is Filipino. Being and island chain hurts them, because it keeps tribes geographically isolated, with poor infrastructure and such. Your nation in my view, would be less a centralized state and more a Confederacy of ethnically similar but culturally distinct groups.

Do what you want, but and island chain the size of the U.S. would be less badass than you think.

Again do whatever you want, but this nation seems unrealistically large

You were the man you once made a God-emperor, so not your most far fetched idea honestly.

I'm thinking a rather concentrated majority in certain areas and the rest of it either being scarely populated by our version of hillbillies and natives and lots of wildlife. But yesh i do wanna cash in on the nation size

...well, upon consulting a program that lets you move countries around (for comparison)...it's not that obscenely large I guess, given ocean area. If you're going to have that much-unsettled land, definitely consider the possibility of territories, with small, rural populations, a cowboy esque type of law out in the country, and natives...

Some Pacific Islanders, maybe Māori would be an interesting dynamic.

Perhaps the colonists reacted violently towards the natives. Although Venetians were unusually cosmopolitan for medieval Europe, so perhaps they would coexist, eventually interbreeding...maybe most, or at least a sizeable minority of Genovians are halfies, half Māori, half Venetian. Māori-Venito's.

These two are half Filipino and Italian.

I was thinking of writing up my own distinct civilizations/tribes that would be there just because the idea allowed me to more creative. Essentially create a distinct people from scratch instead of using the already existing maori.

I was also planning on Genovia having it's own manifest destiny type thing and brief cowboy super mario moment in our history and well... uhhh mostly reduce their population by the same percentages that the americans did to their natives.

I finished my book's prologue if anyone is interested in reading it.

It's still barely more than a first draft so I welcome any feedback or criticism.

Oh I'll offer criticism.

I might have to give you permission to access it.

Be gentle, it’s my first time.

Just so I know I’m not letting the entire internet access to it, you can’t edit it or anything right?

I deleted everything....

Yeah no it's view only buddy

I haven't read it yet, I'll read it sometime today.

I really think I want to work on my Philosophy and Legislature factbooks today, maybe finally, finally response to the Genocide RP...

I've just been out of it lately with Nationstates. I'm not even disinterested, just more interested in other games.

Don’t make my pulse quicken for a split second like that

I’m the same way, other things just took priority.

Relax bro, even if I had, I know how to press backspace...I also know how to press save :)

I just realized my Imperial family has no coat of arms. They lived during European feudal society, they need a coat of arms. In English coat of arms, you add a lion for each King in your family. I should just pick something like a whale and had about 100+ whales on their arms.

So basically I need a coat of arms and flag. Logically, maybe the coat of arms main symbol should be on the flag. I could go for a Spanish style flag, with their actual cost of arms on the flag, but I don't know if I want to go Spanish on the flag...

Why a whale? Wouldn’t a dragon be more fitting? Or was that a joke

Why Spanish? I thought you were Greek/Roman/Venetian?
