History of the World 2.2 - V (Cuz 2 just wasn't big enough)

Did you lose your auto save?
It's a good idea to rename your last auto1_save before loading up a save cos it will overwrite it.
If you get dropped go into your civ folder and just rename it before you do anything else. This will be at the beginning of the turn from which you were dropped but only you will have this save (as long as you got auto saves ON!)

I've lost several rounds of production in this game as Raz kindly points out but I'm cool for us to go back to Mongols IF drake really wants that. Consider the time. I often let things go through to the keeper to keep games moving but not trying to make you feel bad

Ok ok ok, i am a complete bonehead. I only checked autosave #2. I checked autosave #1 as Deity suggested (I think) and I do indeed have an accurate save after all....sorry sorry sorry. I pulled a Nappy what can I say.

I will upload it here! And this time it is the right one!

The lack of signing of the Nuclear Treaty by the powerful Zulus is a particularly ominous sign. They have ignored our statement that we will NOT build Apollo nor Manhatten and will not sign the Treaty.

What does the world make of this?

It is becoming clearer to us that maybe they wish to build such Wonders themselves.

No no Manhattan project planned in the Zulu Nation. Not at all. Nuclear War is the last thing the Zulus want. What Keating fails to remember is that the Zulu proposition was not just outlined towards the Aussies signing a statement that forbids the building of Apollo, it was outlined for the whole world........So until the rest of the countries of the world, particularly Mongolia, China and Israel, sign a statement that condemns the building of Apollo, the Zulus will sign nothing that says we will not build the Manhattan Project..........

We don't want to build it, but if the Apollo wonder is built, we may be forced to do it.......in that case, the Aussies must not blame the Zulus, but the builder of Apollo for they will have forced our hand. We are leaving it up to everyone else.

The Zulus expect that China will probably be building Apollo, that way the Aussies get out of responsibility and can freely build parts without consequence. We suspect the Aussies would expect us to then strike against China at that time and then have a valid excuse to attack us.

So Australia, if you truly agree to the Zulu outline, then you will join us in attacking any nation that builds Apollo. If that is not your intention then please withdraw your signature, because that is what it is all about.

Here is the map for the latest save. This map shows the results of the WAAR-Mali peace agreement and the EU-UAS peace agreement.

1585 AD MAP

Since I just love making maps, and since there wasn't a good one made for last week, here it is. EU-UAS Peace made and AI acquisitions returned. WAAR-Mali Peace still being negotiated. This is from Raz's save that we used to start this week.

A speaker is coming to campus on Thursday who may be of use to me and I'd like to hear him speak so I won't be able to make the session this week. I've started asking around for a sub so it should be alright. You all ask a few people yourselves. I'm not really doing anything critical so I don't care too much who subs.

We've got plenty of time to find someone, it should be alright.

It might be a good idea to look for a Capo sub as well, its been a few days since he skipped the game and still no word from him. Who knows, he might not be here next week either.

"sir it appears that the EU government is in dissarray. No sign of Churchill has been seen for over 20 years now. The new self appointed leader General Arty Intelli seems to be after maintaining power." Spoke Benjamin Disraeli WAAR Secretary of State to the President Roberto Auldinsky

"We cant allow this situation Ben, contact all the world powers for a summit, Churchill must be found, some one's inteliigence must know where he is and what has happened to him. What of the rumours that communists are behind this, where is that Lennin?"

"No reports of him either Mr President. Too early to blame the communists for this one. The only good news is that General Arty has signed the peace treaty."

"Yes but for how long, we all know the pecularaties of his phylosophies. It was one of his Uncles that attacked Khurdistan not so long ago. And we all rember the great Israeli / Adriatic war started by his ancestor too."

"Yes sir we are on the watch, fortunalty the Australains should be able to stop any direct attack from Bosporus , their usual avenue of attack."

"Yes I thank President Paul for that, but I still worried about the East Ben, Kazakstan is very vulnerable and so are many more provinces there."

"Mr President what do you decree?"

"I beleive we need to increase the protection of our eastern frontier, send word to the World leaders that any incursion of the EU into any of our provinces will be met with the full force of the WAAR army. Hopefully it wont occur or the Australains or Mongols wil lhold back the advance, but nothing is guaranteed in this world. Heaven forbid if General Arty were to get hold of Nuclear Fission and start the Nuke Project. If that were to occur we would expect even the Zulus to acknowledge our right for preemptive strikes agaisnt the city so building it."

Guys I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry...

Look, I'm very sorry I so wanted to play but I have been very busy since Thursday so I haven't had a chance to explain myself, I am technically late for my Religious studies class right now (wait, Capo in religious studies!!!?!?!?) so I can't really go into detail.

Lets just say it involves a lot of alcohol and being in the United States Marine Core for three days!

Yeah, its very strange, I'll tell you guys right after my class and hopefully figure out what's going on. Anyway man, I hope nothing retarded happened while I was MIA. It always seems to happen, but I'll give you a full report of what went down Thursday night, I had EVERY intention to play.

And for the two Aussies here, it is a FEDERAL OFFENSE in the United States to skip out on something involving the Military once you sign up, so no lame ass excuses to get out of it could have worked, sorry I didn't know sooner or else I would have had a chance to let you guys know about it, but I couldn't. Anyway, I gotta get my ass to class.

So I'll talk to ya in an hour. Peace.

And no peacekeeping is necessary against the EU, we are very peaceful.

The Offices of Adriana Alessi
421 Eastern Drive
Monaco, France

TO: THE ENTIRE F*CKING PLANET (joke)
FROM: Interim President Adriana Alessi

It is with great tepidation and sadness that I announce to the world the passing of Winston Churchill, our President. He was a great man, but like all other man he suffered from vices that were beyond his control. In this case kidney failure.

With that said, as per the European Constitution I will now acquire the office of President until the next general election.

In case you are unaware I am Adriana Alessi, former General and member of the European Joint Chiefs. I was a corporal during the Mongolian-Israeli resistance campaign in the Balkans and Russia. I had no intention of public service until I was appointed by Charles DeGaulle as Secretary of the Interior to head up the reconstruction of our territories after the Mongolian-Israeli onslaught. I am quite sure you have heared of me.

Regardless of these facts there are many pressing matters other than my reputation to attend to. Many things have occured in the world which disgust and shock the European people. As you are well aware our country suffers from vast internal strife, resulting in numerous failed coup de-etats.

In this case Marxist dissidents under the guise of Arturo Intelli attempted to assassinate President Churchill, he was shot in the Kidneys which were racked with years and years of alcohol abuse and then perished. This just days after Churchill held a meeting with Labor Party leader Vladimir Ulryich Lenin.

I thank you in advance for your consolation for our loss, Churchill was a great man and only acted within the best interests of peace throughout the world. Something that his colleagues in your nations felt necessary to overlook.

The European Union was invited to act as a buffer state between Israel and the Zulu Federation, we did not want to do it. The job was horrible, it strained relations with Israel and possibly with the African Nations as well. We NEVER wanted it, we didn't like it, it was a job we were given and we fulfilled its requirements PERFECTLY. Any nation that wishes to equate this endeavor with our militancy is advised to pick up a f*cking dictionary and learn how to speak. I apologize for my "French" but it seems PERSONAL attacks are the order of the day based on the messages our government has recieved.

I shall now go down the list on a nation by nation basis and explain any questions that may reside within them, first WAAR. We hold no ill feelings towards this nation at all, any aggression seen on our part has been fabricated or assumed due to historic realities. In any event conflict is unnecessary and so is any sort of "peace keeping" mission. I feel our LACK OF ATTACKING is enough peace, don't you? It is ridiculous to begin peace keeping missions on a sovreign nation's territory without that nation's own consent and further to state that a nation who has done no wrong is an aggressor. To President Auldinsky I say this; if you want the DMZ back into place you should say so. Correct me if I am mistaken by YOUR NATION broke the DMZ when it INVADED OURS AND TOOK HALF OF OUR LAND WITH YOUR ALLY. As a sign that we hold no ill will towards the Israelis we will reinstate the DMZ upon discussion with their leadership as to what it would entail. Further we will pay restitution for the library that was destroyed in Khurdistan.

To the Union of Asian States; we have never held your nation with contempt, private notes from the Kingdom of the Adriatics show that on many occasions great leaps were made in attaining a military alliance between our people which never materialized. We note that ever war your nation has been dragged into against us has been at the behest of your so called allies. We are sorry that this notion of hatred pervades our people, and hope to reconcile our differences. We kindly ask that your units be removed from our territory, and further ask that units in other nations' lands be removed that MAY be targeted at us, we do not want war.

To the People's Republic of China; we ask that you rescind your statement to build the United Nations. It was agreed upon by every nation in the world that it would stand in Amsterdam, and while we are attempting as hard as possible to make that a reality we are constantly racked by WARS and INTERNAL STRIFE based on the actions of foreign nations who shall go nameless. We hope and pray that you will reconsider your position and allow the UN to finally be erected in Amsterdam, where it has been decided to stand.

To Australia; We have no idea why your nation holds us in such a vile manner. We have not been your enemy since medieval times, we have never done anything wrong to you at all. If not signing your treaty is a bad thing, then you are free to feel that way. However I continue to hold to the stance that we need a WORLD comittee to establish this treaty, and further research as to exactly what harm would be caused by such a weapon. Europe agrees totally with a nuclear ban, but only if it is achieved in a proper and fair manner.

To Mali; We feel your pain, we have been in your position and we understand that it is not a good one. At the first possible moment we will deliver a 300 gold relief fund to your nation. We are unsure how much aide was given by these so called "peaceful nations" (who by the way stack military against Europe's borders) have done for you, but we promise to give 300 gold in aide to your nation and we shall also send two engineers to help rebuild your terrain.

To our great friends the Zulus; your people have been nothing but good to us. Your nation stands as a beacon of ACTUAL peace and ACTUAL objectivity. Every war you have been in has been in the protection of national sovreignty, and for this Europe loves you. You are the only true people on this Earth, including our own people, who speak what they do, and do what they speak. You have our undying loyalty. Europe would go into the depths of hell and battle the devil for your nation. We would fight to the last European to defend your nation. We are your undying allies.

With this said we hope the world takes notice of its own propoganda and stops trying to make an evil juggernaut out of Europe, besides the Mali who were just stomped into the ground by the coalition of "peaceful nations" we are the WEAKEST and most IMPOTENT nation on the planet. And yet we are called the bullies?

Thank you for your time.

Interim President,

Adriana Alessi

For simplicities sake and ease of updating each week, I changed the format of the site.

Everything is still archived though.

Well folks its tuesday here and i still haven't found a sub. I suggest you all really start asking around I think i have exhausted my list of candidates. I really would hate for UAS to go AI, and i'm sure everyone else would hate it too. Please find a sub.

"Madame President" said the Chauffer as he smiled and nodded opening the door to the limousine. It had only been a few weeks since Adriana Alessi was named President, she felt weird being greeted in this manner.

Vittorio Rossi approached with a large smile "Adriana, how are you this evening?" he asked holding a large leather briefcase under his shoulder.

"Very well Vittorio, well other than this speech. I'm nervous." she said.

"Don't be, there's nothing to worry about, the world is going to watch this speech it is an important speech." he said patting her on the shoulder.

"Yes an impoverished country making major statements, that's a laugh. Nobody cares about us anymore, we are a non-issue now. Our politics have doomed us, I'm trying to begin a transition but it is going to be difficult." she said as they began walking up the stairs of the Parliament building. They chose the secret back route, they didn't want press involved anytime before what was to be said was said.

"Nobody said this job was an easy job, truthfully I couldn't do it and I've been up here for decades. There's nothing to worry about, Lenin is in custody and you've already released a statement saying you will reapply the DMZ as long as you have a meeting with Israeli officials first, nothing is going to happen right now. Just play this cool and you should be fine." he said, attempting to comfort her. He fully realized how precarious the European position was, if the internal strife wasn't enough the Mongolian artillery and Australian infantry parked just miles from their border was.

"Well, its easy to say that Vittorio, but its nearly impossible to believe it. We really have no evidence against Lenin other than the assissins being Marxists, that won't stand up in court and another newsbit for the media against our government is more than I can stand. We have to give him a fair trial no matter how badly he stirs up dissent." she replied.

"Don't worry about him, that's a matter for the judiciary to decide, you are the President and you have a message to give to the world. C'mon, if you do a good job I'll take you to dinner, I know how long its been since you've gone on a date." he smiled.

"Oh Vittorio, you were always the charmer weren't you?" she said mockingly "No, its okay, I am the President, there's no need for dates. Besides, you're an old man." she said.

"Hah, true, true. Well, you are five minutes late Madame President." he said "C'mon, go in there and knock their socks off..."
