cRPNES: civman's Role-Playing NES

[civman2000]

It seems that the old nes has died, so here's my idea for a new one:

Each country is represented by 2 people, the leader and the aristocracy. The leader is the ruler, the single person most in charge. THearistocracy is like the ministers in the other role-playing NES, as well as anyone that would not be considered "the people" that would influence the ruler (examples: Politburo in communism, Congress in democracy, etc).

Also, there are the people. However, unlike the old NES, they are not just the people of a nation. THey are a cultural group, and the borders of the cultural groups never change. Most cultural groups span more than one country, and most countries span more than one culture group. The culture groups are not always just one culture. For example, the European culture group is quite diverse, and the Indo-CHinese could be split between Indians and CHinese.

With 6 nations controlled by 2 people each, and 10 cultural groups, this NES can operate with up to 22 people. It starts when 6 people have joined.

Technology is at 1950 levels for everyone, but there are no nukes. THere are no alliances and no war when it begins.

This would be the first NES I have ever taken part in... but the concept sounds interesting.
I would like to lead the Russians, if possible.

[Space05us]

I'll Lead the NAF

whoa, 2 replies while i'm writing up the culture groups! I'll be the European culture group.

Btw, I thought of this while on vacation.

even if we commit genocide?

[civman2000]

A few notes:
Egypt is Mideastern even though it's in AFrica. Similarly, Turkey is European in culture though geographically Mideastern. Japan is the smallest culture group, but also the most united and determined to break free from their Chinese overlords. The EUropean Union is the only nation that only covers one culture group, but it is a loose federation and the European culture group is by far the least united, so the fact that it only covers one culture group does NOT make it stronger or more united.

[civman2000]

hmmm...ok, they might change a little bit...

[Space05us]

cool. can I make my first move or should I wait for more people to join?

[civman2000]

wait until we have at least 6 people

[civman2000]

aah, let's jsut start it now before it dies.

Separatist groups are gaining power in Spain and Portugal. With local elections coming up soon, La Falange Nueva ("The New Falange"; Falange was the name of Franco's Fascist Party) seem to have the parliamentary elections won, though it will be a tough battle for governor (OOC: governor is considered part of EU aristocracy)

[jdd2007]

i was thinking about Europe, but then i remembered last time *shudders* and i think i will have -the most unified country- *looks at map* NAF (is that the best name you could come up with?) is taken? well that leaves the new ottoman empire as the next most unified. good thing most nomadic tribes were killed by genocide many years ago, or else we would be fighting among ourselves.

anyone up for an alliance? (besides that brazilian empire)

[TheGuitarist]

Ottoman Comrades! The Russians respectfully request an alliance from our European and Mideastern neighbors to seal our friendship and combine our forces.

[WTE_OzWolf]

I wouldn't mind being the Europe aristocracy...

[civman2000]

FIrst post updated. MWAHAHAHA, OzWolf, I as teh people of Europe get to elect the aristocracy, so I have quite a bit of control over you!

La Falange strongly opposes any positive relations with Russia and even proposes invading Russia!

Spanish election results in!! La Falange now controls 68% of the Spanish Parliament buthas lost the gubernatorial race!! The gubernatorial results:
Reformistas Moderadas (Moderate Reformists): 43%
Partido de Comunistas (Communist Party): 27%
La Falange Nueva: 25%
Other: 5%

The moderate candidate and winner of the election was Juan Montado.

OOC: AS governor, he is now under OzWolf's control
