This is an idea I've had floating around in my mind for a while. I'm basically asking you guys to make your own nations using a blank Victoria 2 world map. (Because its easier to use fill tools.) I'm thinking of running a game inspired by Pantheon, Godhood, etc. using the nations you guys create.

Here's what you do:
1. Write up a nation's description, preferably using this sheet:

Spoiler: Nation Sheet (click to show/hide)

Nation's Name: Ex:The North
Nation's Government: Ex:Various tribes and clans united under a king. The king is determined by a huge melee where all the tribal leaders face off against eachother to decide who will be king.
Nation's History: Ex:In the past The North was just a term used to refer to the vast tundra and the tribes living there. But, recently the tribes were all united by a man named Avarian who defeated all the clan leaders and tribal chiefs in single combat. Now The North is trying to make its own place in the world.
Any Other Stuff:

2. State where your nation is. You can do this by either just stating your relative location using modern geographical terms or just editing the provided map outright.

Spoiler: Other Important Things (click to show/hide)

1. Reserve yourself a turn. I will edit the map via post order to avoid overlapping borders and such.
2. Tech is anything from Roman-era to Early Renaissance.
3. Try not to make your nation too large. Russia did not include all the Russias for quite a while.
4. Wait until the map is edited to edit the map yourself. Please, for my sanity.
5. You can make multiple nations, if you wish.

Use this if you can't edit the picture.

Any questions?

Nation: Bug City-State
Government: The Council of Queens
History: Not so long ago, there was a mighty city in the Bug City-State. Its inhabitants were rich and well-known. Then, they made a mistake: The first Insect Spirits were summoned. They spread silently for a long time, building warring cults. Then, the war between the species of Insect Spirits became open, leading to the extermination or exile of anyone who did not convert. Since then, the Insect Spirits have reconciled their differences sufficiently to allow for a sort of congress of the Queens and other mighty Spirits to be formed, governing the city, now known as the Hive. With this new organization, the Bug City-State (as it was called by the local humans) has spread far and wide.

Location: Those spots by Lake Michigan

Questions:
Why is a Mercator projection used?
What's the setting?
Does anyone get the reference?

Nation's Name: The Confederation of Knowing
Nation's Government: Religiously controlled, High Revealer as King
Nation's History and Stuff: The Confederation was formed from the systematic discharge of all the world's paranoid conspiracy theorists. They banded together to form a nation safe from aliens, shapeshifters, megalodons, terrorists, and ghosts, to name a few. The entire nation is a huge heavily militarized zone, with each settlement being covered in measures to protect from various threats. Confederation society is very rigidly structured, with periodic mass genocides to cleanse the population of insurgents. Confederates occasionally suffer from a form of schizophrenia combined with increased mental acuity, this is known as Natural Purity, and those with the trait are moved to the capital to be trained into elite members of the theocracy. The Confederacy is currently working on a space program to allow them to "find somewhere safer." Standard Confederate dress is goggles, a gas mask, a blank white full face mask worn on the back of the head, and a seamless full body suit of leather reinforced with metal wherever possible.
Location: Alaska, and part of Canada, zombies can't live very well in Alaska.

You can't have goggles, gas masks, or a space program. The realism on the game is going to be high. Read everything closely.

1.Early reniassance had glassmaking, why not make goggles?
2. Gas Mask- Leather face mask.
3. Space Program- If we vault something high enough, we can get to some sort of Aether Realm!

1. It makes it easier on myself.
2. High realism, except for magic. In-game Magic will be super difficult to succeed in using. I'll work out any problems that I see.
3. Your reference? I don't get it.

1. To ward off demon polar bears!
2. Not sure, they're crazy conspiracy theorists, they don't have to be practical gear as long as they keep said demons away.

No Remuthra, YOU ARE THE POLAR BEARS. Then Remuthra was a demon polar bear.
