Norightsian Troops Occupy Genesis City!; ...and Crimea...

Despite the fact that Anatolia and Greece have become part of the Resplendant Dawn, Norightsian officials discovered that Genesis City was never ceded to the Orthodox Dawnsians. In a daring move, troops from Italy, freed from the threat of the migrating Amish, raced to the city by plane and took control. No Dawnsian had yet arrived on the scene, and so no casualties were reported. Therefore, enheartened by the restoration of Genesis City, they sailed through the Bosphorus and occupied non-contested Crimea. The Catholics in both areas welcomed their presence, which tentatively assures them a Catholic future. While more settlements in the area have called for help, the Emperor himself denied them, claiming he only desired the former capital of his home-country. The seizure of Crimea is for trade, he said. However, Norightsian troops are few, just 4,000 in Crimea and a single thousand in Genesis City, making the Norightsian hold on the area weak until reinforcements from Asia and Africa arrive. However, the Emperor expressed his confidence that his new neighbors will not assault his new territories. Strangely, neither of these area have been turned over to Provisional control from Rome. Instead, the Norightsian flag flies over Genesis City and Crimea...

Legionary Command has issued a statement saying that 20,000 troops are on their way to the area to reinforce the current garrison. They have assured nations in the area that this is a peaceful move, used only to secure Norightsian interests.

Would someone mind explaining to me exactly how CE and Egyria's departures will effect the Middle East map?

IMO? They, after a period of time that can be construed as either waiting to see if they return (in CE's case he seemed quite adamant about it when I spoke to him on NS, Egyria, we may get luckier) or mourning for their departure, are taken off the map and their land is claimed by hopefully whoever they would want to have it.

Well, technically, after it was surrendered to CE, CE ceded Egyria to me, so it could be marked as Sistan.

However, when I find time and motivation, I'll be posting an occupation thread where I'll take administrative control while keeping Egyria as intact as possible until Egyria comes back or something else happens. Most likely, the White Palace Accord will be invited to help with the administration, so Egyria would probably be best left completely intact with only a note mentioning that it's under Sistani or joint Sistani/WPA administration.

Notice that in Egyria's "Finale" RP, The Sheik is still alive. You could find him and rule Egyria through him, much as I am doing with the Pope and "CE" (in Italy)

Norightsia, I just wanted to clarify something. No nation under your control can currently establish itself in Genesis City. Genesis City is in the Middle East. You already have a nation in the Middle East and you cannot have two nations here.

You cannot then have a nation in the Middle East. If you look on the maps you will see that Genesis City is on both the Middle East and European Continent maps. It's in a hinge area, just as CE was. It's simultaneously in Europe and the Middle East. Since you already have a nation in the Middle East you can't have another one in the hinge area. Just because it isn’t represented on the Middle East map doesn’t mean it’s not a violation.

Well damn then. I really wanted a nation in the middle east, but CE's dying(on the forum) wish was that I take Genesis City, so I'll have to sacrifice Spartaoi. Anyone willing to take it over but keep the culture? Harumf?

OOC: I could take it and let the people have a limited autonomy. Since Sistan is secular, there wouldn't be any conflict with the religion outside of the muslim majority having to deal with a large minority popping up all of a sudden.

It'd give me an excuse to have the Prince become a king too...

We would strongly oppose Sistan taking over Spartaoi, since his nation is already there, and that would be the same as expansion. Why can't Norightsia have up to and including Genesis City, and stay out of Turkey?? There are other countries that show up on both the Middle east and Africa that have 2 nations, and Europe really does end at Istanbul, so why not?? If he only RP's Genesis City as a European part of his Italianate kingdom, I don't see the harm.

Well I'd be in favour of the Holy League taking over Genisis city.

Nations that show up over two maps are mirror nations or colonies. You can have one nation per map. So Nag Ehgoeg is in the Middle East and Asia. We could make a mirror nation and put it in Asia, but we couldn't have a colony on the far side, nor could we make a new nation to put in Asia.

I am OK with Genesis City becoming a city-state under Papal control but outside of mainland Anatolia. However, the Ukraine is not part of the Middle East. I don't see why I can't take land there.
