Could there be a rule where every nation has to declare military budget and % of gdp figures alongside military troops so everyone knows how big other militaries are and to stop militaries suddenly being big.As it stands theres nothing to stop people looking at others military stats and simply doing a bigger military than their opponent.

Militaries by nation. This sheet has the size of militaries and I encourage others to share about their military size.

KEC Assembly

It was 1600 just months into his second term. James had worked on trade and achieved treaties in various countries around the world however now he wanted something different. Something more. He had run on a vision of a new treaty one that would revolutionise Skathia. He sent out a letter to the Nyland president and then letters to the Mandevine Community members inviting them to a conference.

The letter read :
Dear President Roxanne

I James Perrier-Abbott , president of the Mandavine Union believe our peoples have much in common such as our belief in universal values in human rights, diversity and respect of all humans regardless of our cultural differences. I also believe we have much to gain in further co-operation. I am today writing to you with this in mind.

I propose a new structure for the Nyland and Mandavine Community trade, regulatory and cross border securuty co-operation that recognises our shared democratic values, common issues and trade links. I believe more co-operation standardization and movement between our countries for tourism, economics and education can only benefit our peoples. With this in mind I would like to invite you to a conference in Quentin to discuss future co-operation and the future relations within Skathia and the Mandavines. The conference would discuss issues of security, economic, education and environmental co-operation among other issues to see the best way forward with a view to potentially develop trade treaties with the Mandevine community. I believe this will benefit trade and tourism withint our region.
May we move forward in harmony to greater things for our nations and into a bright future of co-operation, peace and stability within Skathia.

Yours Sincerely , James Perrier-Abbott president of the Mandavine Union

With the letter sent out all that was now needed was to wait for responses

It was 19:00 in Eiddinn, Matei Keegan-Nicolescu and Aoibheann Keegan-Nicolescu were dining out with the 3 children 6 year old Iancu Keegan-Nicolescu, 13 year old Cian Keegan-Nicolescu and 16 year old Nadia Keegan-Nicolescu at O'Mahony's a traditional strathaen restaurant in town. They had had a good day so far and had stopped off back from holiday to Hopkins Valland and Hopkins Eskkya. They would go to their small town later that night. All was well in their world, the kids were happy and loving their Strathaen Veg Stew a common dish at local restaurants. They had a good meal paid the bill and left for home.

In the night things went south very quickly. Nosebleeds started then the shortness of breath. 6 year old Iancu was the fist to succumb followed by Cian 5 minutes later. The parents tried desperately in vain to help but it was too late as they were suffering too. They called the ambulance but it was too late. They watched as their 6 year old son and 13 year old son died in front of their eyes asphyxiation taking hold. The ambulance came the scene they saw was shocking they took the family to hospitals with the rest struggling for life. They then discovered the note , the note confirming its link to the home ministers comments. This was given to the police. The police alarmed phoned the new home minister who then woke up Blair Gobnet McLucais. She was furious and knew to be concerned , the government would release their statement and call for a meeting with Carpathia, the first in a while.She had warned of this if the CN did not sack him immediately but the CN had dragged their heels , this was on them.

Directorate Use Only
Expanding Country: Khokharsa
EC.'s Government Type: One-party state socialist republic

Campaign Setting: 1600
Campaign Goal: Northern Skathia (for example, the area west to Khokharsa, including the coast, until that river close to northeastern Nyland)
Informational Links: Factbook

When did you last have an Expansion? Started on April 2018 (technically just finished)
When was the Expanding Country's last military conflict? 1540
Why do you seek to expand? to increase Khokharsan influence in Northern Skathia, to spread Skathian socialism

Campaign Plot
Elite divisions in [Northern Skathia country] led to low-intensity military conflict which involves power struggle, constitutional crisis, regional divisions, and ethnic tensions. One of the factions will rely on the support of armed groups and militias supported and armed by Khokharsan government in order to regain power. Khokharsa may eventually directly intervene to either install a more friendly government, instigate territorial tensions or even annex territory.

Potential for Other Player Involvement
Flo may be involved RPing one rebel faction. Other are invited to participate.

Besides Nyland, other nearby player-nations include Bisica, Mandavine Union, or Batavia.

How your country may evolve from success
Khokharsan government may adapt an even more proactive foreign policy, along militarization of Northern Skathia.

How your country may evolve from defeat
There may be a change in the leadership, or either the government or the economy may collapse, depending what kind of defeat obviously.

State: Hoinom
Population: 65,989,162
GDP: $870,970,490,880 (GDPpc $13,198.69)

Length of war: 1589-1599

On a scale of 1-10, how intense was the conflict?
A nationwide scale would be probably around 6, I'd say. But important regional differences: It could be a 8 in some regions, but 2 or lower in another (see below).

How much of your state did the country affect?
Based on the 1587 census, for easier area-focused estimations, you may consider the following information:
-Proper war affected areas with a combined population of 35,212,177 in 1587 (that's, about 55% of total the population)
-Provinces that experienced some fighting but not real war fighting during most of the years would add around 10,963,721 in 1587 (around 17% of the total population)
-The rest of the country only experienced some minor fighting and state repression in general, areas around 17,477,581 in 1587 (up to 28% of the total population).

Tieguo airstrikes probably only affected 16 of 33 provinces, which combined population would be 51% of the total population.

How many civilian and military deaths do you estimate?
I'm not very good at numbers, but I assume you can calculate a realistic number considering the information above.

Tieguo's imposed no-fly zone covered provinces with an original population of nearby 22,000,000. I imagine it would be more like "Libya-like" than "Syria-like" airstrikes, so speaking. Occasional airstrikes by Tieguonese Air Force also happened in an area that provinces that had a 10,520,216 population in 1587, but there would be more limited airstrikes against more clear military targets, so the casualties would be considerably lower than in the original no-fly zone.

Other no purely numbers you may consider or add to the final estimation:
-Pre-war famine and related deaths would be no more than 10,000-15,000.
-Early state repression would be probably below 1,000, up to 3,000 if you count early insurgency as well.
-1589 coup d'etat probably caused no more than around 500 casualties, but following repression may increase to 2,000-5,000 casualties.
-Extrajudicial killings in the northern provinces, by several factions, may be up to 10,000.
-Anti-elite repression in revolutionary provinces could have caused 20,000 deaths.

It is also noted that 2/3 of the provinces that were mostly affected by the war, did not experience much fighting since 1595, as there was several ceasefire agreements since then.
In the same way, the rest of the country (the other 45%), would have not experienced no real fighting since 1592


How many civilians do you estimate were internationally displaced?
I wrote that in 1591, there were 580,000 Hoinomese refugees in neighboring countries, and another 1 million internally displaced. An real fighting has been minor and mostly focused in a few provinces since 1595, I imagine that not much that the double of that original number (although probably a large number of refugees have been able to return the country since them).

Expanding Country: New Zealmark
EC.'s Government Type: Monarchy

Campaign Setting: 1600
Campaign Goal:
The goal is to annex the land right there
Informational Links:none atm
When did you last have an Expansion? Not at all
When was the Expanding Country's last military conflict? From 20 years ago
Why do you seek to expand? control More of the rivers as naval transport is getting even more important for New zealmark and its goverment want it because its getting paranoid

Campaign Plot
the people to the left might swear loyalty to New Zealmark because their still pretty close and enthnic soyabarian people might still live there asswell (its on the coast) and more to the southern regions I did there might be some force required to add it to new zealmark

Potential for Other Player Involvement
Ishnalla might help

How your country may evolve from success
It will by having more coastal land to build coastal harbors on, which will lead to more imports and exports for the entire region

How your country may evolve from defeat
Given the instabilty of the region in the past, it might collaps on itself
