We don't need to appease, we need to not piss off.

By the way, if anyone has better plans than an economic meritocracy, let me know.

There is a better plan than economic meritocracy, it's called COMMUNISM (Seriously, at this rate we'll just be capitalism under another name.)

Also you might need to set up a prompt to get people to post more, I'm a little lost as to what actions can be taken right now.

I would suggest unanimously or not choosing the First Secretary and agreeing on what ministries were there to be. Without that, issues will arise (there is a new batch of them already), but you won't learn of them in time.

Ok, I say I'm out of the running since we should probably avoid mixing military and political roles for now.

Communism is necessarily meritocratic.

From each according to their ability.

It's just a different means of distribution.

Argyle's the only name in the running so far?

Well, Enitan's also in the running now. May be the best choice to keep the nationalists and anti-imperialists on-side given that he is a native nigerian.

OTher than that, a Gendarmerie is a pretty good idea stabbymcstabstab. Means we don't have to invest in a SWAT analogue for the police and we'd have personnel able to handle occupations effectively.

Thought so to and besides I don't think we actually have a unified police force so I figure establishing one quickly was a smart idea.

Well, we've probably solved the question on how to police the military in the same swoop. Though we will need a civilian police force in the future.

We need some kind of elite guard, better trained and better armed some thing that can put down small revolts fast with force.

That's called the army. Besides I want something close to actual numbers before I start unit like that. Besides I got to Ideas for that that guard, a mechanized light infantry company or a mounted unit of Dragoons since most revolts are probably not going to be in areas with roads so both are going to have either vehicles capable of brute forcing through or something maneuverable enough to get through quickly..

Just equip some gendarmerie units with mechanised vehicles and we've got it.

Think we should set up some steel and textile Industries as well as Iron, Copper and Columbite mines to provide income.

Maybe set up some cocoa, coffee and cannabis plantations to support it.

Initially we'll need to get the stuff for those factories. So cash-wise we're probably going to be relying on agricultural products until those are set up.

Well we can get mines, plantations and some crafts going early. too bad we only have access to four types of thing to mine in our country.

What about logging or fishing.


As for military getting a NCO system and boot camp could help it.
