That is real life. On our NS maps, we try to avoid such situations, so that the space is there for new nations. |

I don't want to complain, or indeed sound like a hypocrit, but there is like hardly any land left in Europe. It seems, to me, that the new nations start of too big and then are allowed to go and take huge areas under their control - is there really a need for 1 nation to have like 2/3 of areas of land annexed and under their control? |

Hmm, are you referring to yourself with this question?? |

Yshurak already had 2.6 billion people when I switched it to this region from the other Europe, so I have a right to my huge chunk o' land. But I agree with CE that smaller nations shouldn't have all that space. |

No, I am not. I am neither a new nor small nation. But, furthermore, I too have given up land (Cyprus) so everyone should follow my lead! |

You funny man. Make me laugh, ha ha ha. Look, we've already split spain in two (Maybe we should have left Portugal, but that wasn't my choice.) Germany is is pieces. Looks like to me the country that is ocupying Italy, Yougoslovia (and its parts), austria, romania, bulgaria, greece, turkey, albania, etc. etc. is YOU! Though Neo-Austria having England and Ireland is pretty silly. Those should be opened up. |

Nevertheless, CE is 5 billion strong, so I have no problem with him having that much land. Besides, I think in general, we all ought not view more land as being necessarilly better than small land, or smaller land as being necessarilly worse. Different size countries offer different roleplaying oppurtunities, so both have their places. The EC has 20+ nations on the map, so I don't think it is overly saturatedl; there are still a few significant areas for addition. I think that the real solution to the problem, is to make sure that all the annexation frenzy of this region is put to rest. |

Thankyou RD. That is what I was getting at. Infact I think all annexations should be undone. As for me, I know I am a large nation but that has always been the case for at least a year now. I worked my way up from small lands to large lands. I didn't have a headstart unlike many people in the European Continent. It may not be their fault, it could be the map makers fault. Who knows. Just wish the personal attacks on me would cease to be hidden under bullshit. |

Don't tell me you're getting paranoid, too!! All I suggested is when your westrern portion was designed, it didn't have to go to Italy, did it?? I mean, wouldn't Greece have been enough?? I mean, if we occupy all the land with new countries, then I'd be willing to give up Costa Verde. Would you give up Italy? |

Well, actually I essentially would. I would definetly give up Northern Italy, perhaps in an RP. You think you can accuse me of being a hypocrit but really it's all rubbish. You are biased against me, it's plain for all to see, on the basis of what someone has told you. :angry: |

I promise you I hold no bias against you - I do not believe rumor and inuendo anyway, therefore have no reason to be biased. I will judge your nation on its RP'ing, and judge you on what you do and say outside your RP'ing. Now, to satisfy your curiosity, how many people on this forum think CE (the person, not the RP'd Pope) is homophobic? :blink: |

Whether Catholic Europe is really homophobic or not is not the point of this argument. The point of this argument is that relatively new nations have huge chunks of land. I really have to side with CE on this issue, I really have to. |

Thankyou Scythirus! To my knowledge it is only the new nations which are complaining. Perhaps that says something. |

Regardless of your opinion of me, I also agree that nations are too big. We currently have slots for maybe 5 more. I also think Austria is a super-violator with it having England and Ireland in addition to its continental holdings - it eliminates the whole British Isles potential conflict in RP's of the future, and CE, wouldn't you want Ireland to be a good little Catholic nation?? |

Now, your concerns have been noted, and newer nations will be smaller. I have tried to base their size off of their populations. I would not mind Neo-Austria owning Britain and Austria if they actually ever did anything. They do have a population of like 3 billion. They have been inactive, however, so I'm not sure what to do. Also, all you people grumbling about how little space their is left- we have 21 nations on our map. The Middle East only has 27 nations, and they have far fewer spaces left on the map. But I will create smaller spaces in the future. |

I would just give Neo-Austria either Britain or Austria not both because they have been inactive. |

Well, I'm back in New Jersey now, and I actually know the player of Neo Austria, so I might persuade him to become a more active player. I do think that his inactivity is a fine reason for limiting his size. |

Would anyone object to me deleting Neo-Austria. He hasn't posted at all, and the last time I checked he was no longer in the European Continent region. Plus he takes up all of England, and Ireland, and much of Central Europe. Any objections to his being taken off of the map? |
