~~Pre-1900 (Turn 0)~~

With the coming of the end of the winter of the year 1899, many powers are preparing themselves to begin the race for dominance and power.

For example, diplomatic pacts and treaties should be reviewed and formed, not to mention that forces should be deployed in strategic positions just in case.

Bretain: 8+3 fleets, already deployed
Ahrman Dominion: 6+1 fleet
States of Drudenburg: 6+1 fleet
Buenderland: 4
Belgia: 1+1 fleet
Zosterian Domain: 3
Rakdar: 3
Marrowlend: 4+1 fleet
Provinces of Asxai: 3
Galaran Union: none

[Sheb]

One Army to the Capital, One army to 32, Navy in 31.

We would like to offer trade treaties and alliances to Drudenbug (tntey), the Galaran Union (Tiruin), Rakdar (Taricus) and Marrowlend (Spiderking50).

[Taricus]

Two armies to 46, one to 42

Rakdar diplomatically declines Belgia's trade treaty offer at this stage, accepting the alliance regardless.

Rakda then offers both trade and research treaties, along with an alliance, with the Galarian union (Tiruin) And offers trade treaties and alliances to Asxrai (Eritzap) and the Zosterian Domain (Powderminer)

[Sheb]

We regret that Rakdar do no wish to enter in relations of trade. We are welcoming them as our allies nonetheless, and offer a trade treaty to Asxrai.

[TopHat]

one army to 47, two to 68, one to 49.
Buenderland offers trade pacts, research treaties and non-agression pacts to Zosterian domain (Powder Miner), Marrowlend (Spiderking50), Ahrman dominion (Kashyyk) and Rakdar (Taricus)
EDIT-fixed error in army deployment.

Spoiler: Amardan I addresses the world! (click to show/hide)

Hear me, all loyal Zosterians of the world, and all men dedicated to the removal of evil from this world!

The 19th century is drawing to its close, and the age of quiet buildup is coming to its end as well. The 20th century will be a glorious one! For this will be the century that the final battle between good and evil shall take place, the battle between Mazda and Manyen! It shall see the final triumph of good, and the purging of evil from this world. It has always been the Holy Decree that evil not be tolerated, but now it shall finally be carried out! I will see this, you will see this, the world shall!

And to all faithful Zosterian nations, all nations with Zosterian peoples, to every nation which believes in the ideal of good over evil, I implore you to aid us in this quest. For each nation that devotes itself to the removal of the forces of evil, the world will be more good, and each nation would have found a spot for its rulers and its people in paradise. Any nation that makes a pledge to avoid evil, a pledge to not war upon the helpless or the morally pure, to not lie to and deceive their friends, and to prosecute those that do, shall receive the full support and alliance of the Zosterian Domain!

[Sheb]

"Excuse me? How do you define 'Evil'?"

[Taricus]

In light of of reviewing it's potential industrial might, Rakdar formally offers to direct it's industrial power for other nations, for a price. At this stage, it offers the Ahrman Dominion it's services in return for Province #45 to be ceded to Rakdar.

[Powder Miner]

"Excuse me? How do you define 'Evil'?"

Conquering of the helpless or the innocent, or deceiving one's allies, essentially.

[Sheb]

"How do you define helpless and innocents?"

[Tiruin]

The Union was united--albeit at the cost of a reformed military creed and code. The dawn of Galar would start with the roots of the past Emperor: an army of professional volunteers.

The Galaran Union issues one discreet query to all nations of Bretania:
"What do you stand for?"

The impact of such a statement, along with the many miniature fashions on the sides--people, ideas, symbols-- foretell that it is an important, albeit an open-to-philosophizing question.

[Taricus]

Rakdar Accepts Buenderland's proposal of alliance, but must decline on the issues of the research and trade treaties.

In response to the Galaran union's question, Rakdar merely states that it's taking a pragmatic view of things, though not an expansionist one beyond the straits and mountains that ring the region where it has it's capital.

[Sheb]

We are primarily a commercial faction. And war distract men from the pursuit of business, as such, we want peace across the continent.

[tntey]

Move 3 armies from 3 to 2
Move 2 armies from 3 to 29
Move navy to the western cold sea

Accept the Zosterian trade pact.

[TopHat]

Buenderland formally proposes an alliance to Rakdar and a Trade Pact with the Bretain empire

To the Galaran Union: Buender stands first and foremost for Buenderland, its customs, development and people; and second to his loyal friends and allies, whose well-being shall be of the highest importance as long as they remain so. Yet what does the Union stand for, who would ask such a question?
