Campaign Submissions, Expansion

[Arkiania]

I'd imagine there be little resistance. There wouldn't be much cultural conflict as everyone on the isle is pretty the same culture.

[Ayzek]

It's not all about culture though. Nationalism is the bigger thing. They've enjoyed independence for a couple centuries now, and I doubt they'd be content to twiddle their thumbs as they lose it. Much the same way that Canadians wouldn't really just go "oh, okay" if the US marched up, and the Scandinavians really aren't up for unioning, and those weird countries in South America that were once together aren't really down for it.

So unless you're willing to have resistance play a larger role afterwards, I would recommend setting the thing a few decades ago, where it's less prominent.

I'll discuss this further with Octitania.

Denied. Removing parts of the form doesn't make them go away, I'm afraid.

[Soyabarian Empire]

Directorate Use Only
Expanding Country: Soyabar
EC.'s Government Type: Empire

Campaign Setting: Current
Campaign Goal: The goal is to colonize or conquer the entire area encircled in blue, with the directorate willing. But if I have to compromise I propose the area encircled in red. The working name of that region is advinium

When did you last have an Expansion? with new zealmark, I don't know how long that was ago neither do I remember the date
When was the Expanding Country's last military conflict? The soyabar-svarna war was the last military conflict, but we had a civil war before
Why do you seek to expand? IC: More power for Soyabar ooc: I just want to rp war

Campaign Plot
I plan to plant my flags everywhere with secret service and a group of rebels who would in my favor win the war against the republic and making it into a monarchy vassaling it to soyabar and the legion might be involved. The working title is going to be advinium

Potential for Other Player Involvement
Others might become involved if they decide to support the native population, and dear god I hope it doesn't happen.

Consented. However, be aware: your chance of victory is so minuscule its hilariously not hilarious. You're not likely to walk off with blue or even red.

When did you last have an Expansion? March 2017
When was the Expanding Country's last military conflict? Arrenland hasn't had any major conflicts in recent history.
Why do you seek to expand? IC: Arrenland and Brymme have been going at it for a long time now. Brymme was formerly under Arrenlander control until about 70 years ago. The new government of Arrenland is notably aggressive with a firebrand chancellor who wants to turn Arrenland into a world power. Conquering an old rival and solidifying control over the eastern Kvaennan waters would fit nicely into that goal.

OOCly: I've wanted those islands for a good while now. Also my hopes for mainland conquest have been all but crushed by certain uncooperative parties.

Campaign Plot
The Brymmish people are the descendants of a mixture of Arrenes and Taeunasians, and today Brymme is an independent republic. Brymme was once an Arrenlander vassal state, with its own ruling prince who swore fealty to the king, even after traditional feudal vassal-liege relationships had been abandoned in Arrenland. This was a special concession to the Brymmish, allowing them to maintain a degree of autonomy.

Starting around 1506, at the same time as republican insurrections plague Adwest and fifty years after the republican revolt in the southern United Provinces led to the establishment of an independent Taeunasian Republic, there is a surge in republicanism and anti-Arrenland sentiment in Brymme. Many see the Prince of Brymme and the aristocracy as Arrenlander puppets. In 1510, a republican protest in the city of Brocctun turned into a riot, which turned into a revolt. The revolt spread rapidly throughout the island, and many nobles, alleged “collaborators,” and ethnic Arrenes were murdered. Without going into too much detail, Brymme eventually threw off Arrenlander sovereignty and became an independent republic.

There has been some tension between the two states in recent years. Most recently, Brymme has been accused of supporting separatist groups in Arrenland’s remaining overseas territories, particularly the island of Carruth, and there have been some near-miss incidents between naval patrol vessels of both countries.

After the firebrand new chancellor takes office, he takes a hard stance against Brymme. He demands that the Brymmish government immediately end all support for separatist groups in Arrenlander territory. The Popular Party-controlled parliament passes a bill banning any organization operating in Arrenland from taking funds from Brymmish government or private sources. When a separatist group with alleged ties to Brymme commits a terrorist attack in Carruth, the chancellor orders the seizure of all Brymmish financial assets in Arrenland. In addition, he orders more aggressive patrols of territorial waters, leading to a violent incident between two naval vessels. The exact details of the incident are not clear, but both sides blame the other.

Eventually, one thing leads to another and a shootin’ war breaks out.

The Arrenlander government will attempt to justify the annexation of Brymme as a return to the old order before the bloody and illegal republican uprising. The family of the last reigning prince of Brymme still lives in Arrenland, and they will probably be put on the throne.


Potential for Other Player Involvement
A war between two nations? Plenty of opportunity for the usual involvement there. The Taeunasians might decide that they have a special interest in intervening, considering their proximity to the islands in question.

How your country may evolve from success
After decades of idleness, Arrenland may come out of this conflict with a feeling of pride at their accomplishment, and a wave of support for Dunstan's ideas of turning Arrenland into a world power, thus leading to more international involvement (of the aggressive kind) in the future.

How your country may evolve from defeat
The people's opinion of Dunstan might drop significantly if he returns home in defeat, so to speak. He campaigned on aggressive, glory-seeking, power-building rhetoric, and he can't even manage the old rival Brymme? Arrenland's future imperialist prospects might not look so good.

Have you anyone willing to RP as Brymme?

Not at the moment, but I'm sure we can find someone.
