New Country; New RP Idea

Alright, so I've decided to form a nation NOT related to France. Nothing against France... its just a little too "noble" to be playing all the time. So, in an effort to make something a little more sinister that could lead to a whole mess load of RPs, I've created The Western Union.

The nation will be in Patagonia, and will basically emulate the "Wild West." Think raiders, sheriffs, and Hispanic banditos. A general absence of strong central control. Trains, general stores, and horses. An underdeveloped nation. Corrupt politicians. Scandals and lulz to ensue.

I think the idea lends itself to a lot of potential RP. If anyone wants to get involved, I'll be opening soon with a civil unrest RP. Gangs, Vigilantes, Lawmen, Hispanics, settlers, and State/Federal troops will all be able to be played-- if anybody wishes to play along, it'd be welcome and appreciated.

Addition: Hell, if anyone wants to, the Mapuche Indians could also be a playable faction.

Not all of these will be used, likely; however these are the elements that can take charge within such an RP. If anybody wants to play a faction, I will find a way to involve it. Indeed, each of these groups will grow to play a role in the society- however, this RP may not be the time for all of them.

Alberto, that'd be great if you played or helped play the state troops.

Well, we at least try to be the good guy. This'll give me a chance to play something that doesn't even pretend. :D

Curious, will this encompass more of the Argentine Patagonia or more the Chilean Patagonia or both? Patagonia is a big area :|

A bit of both; mainly Argentine, though.

Ah so bringing lawlessness to the border of Russian Buenos Aires, this could prove very interesting ^^

:lol: Indeed.

If you'd like to get involved at any point, let me know.

Right now I'm in the process of starting along an introductory RP to occur before the major unrest. Mostly going to be just me, but like I said, this country is opened for pretty much everyone. If anyone wants to create any characters, or what have you, let me know and then jump right in.
