There once was a time that our glorious leader offered to have his land divided as we saw fit. I'd like to develop the territory, in a colonial scramble sort of way. I'm of course consolidating my NS-self into one singular power, and the Central-Asian areas are rather tempting. If any others are willing to take a dive into Central Asia, in regards to acting as colonials, or perhaps natives (princes, peasant leaders, warlords, etc...), that would be great. Also I placed this in the Middle East because, geopolitically speaking, Central-Asia has landed itself in our view of the Middle East. If it's seen to be more fit for Asia or the inter-regional forum, then so be it Edited by Ulgania, Aug 19 2010, 12:40 PM.

I could also pose some characters to be local warlords resisting foreigners. I did have a character with a silver tongue running around Kazakhstan who might a great hindrance.

I won't be physically colonizing any part as I'd much rather gobble up the rest of the Caucasus states, but maybe explore options there.

This will hopefully be of use. It'll be part of the whole RP aspect to this project. Edited by Ulgania, Aug 22 2010, 04:03 PM.

Map Tsar and Southern Gentleman Posts: 9,266 Group: Admin Member #120 Joined: April 21, 2005	I'll have to look for the rp b ut once before a canal was proposed that would basically run through what is now my territory. I don't believe we ever finish the idea but if you'd be interested Ulg, we can work something out

A better Zarathustra has never rode a horse Posts: 4,041 Group: Members Member #450 Joined: June 3, 2008	Basing things from Nag's last Kazakhstan RP, I'm redirecting a rather substantial number of forces to Turkmenistan/Uzbekistan to take if for Ulgania whether or not the locals want it to happen. Granted, that's an over-simplification, but you get the picture :lol:

Map Tsar and Southern Gentleman Posts: 9,266 Group: Admin Member #120 Joined: April 21, 2005	I found the RP HERE and it seems as if it really didn't get past talks, so lets assume no canals were never built but that obviously the plan is there. Of course since that conference the power structure between the divided states of Georgia has change and if you're interested, you'll have to deal with two governments that don't get along. :lol: but still, it can be done :) Edited by NRE, Aug 22 2010, 10:34 PM.

They're usually not the best neighbors. we cooperated in a war against Menhad way back when. Political precedent? Also I sorta tend to push things with spheres. before Kas was banned I placed myself at the fringes of the Indian Ocean.

Comrade Bitchqueen Posts: 4,159 Group: Forum Mods Member #83 Joined: October 4, 2004	Technically Menhad betrayed Scythirus by moving against it in the Georgian war which only proves the Emperor's declaration of everyone else being evil. Edited by Comrade Queen, Aug 23 2010, 12:15 AM.

I think all the noobs tried to get as many friends/allies as possible at one point or another. I'm just trying to float ideas right now :lol: The supreme chancellor does have a habit of being stubborn with international relations, so it should be interesting to see everything unfold. And sorry TO. You know I love you. :love:

Hey, wait a damn minute, what is it with me building canals for NRE?! :lol:
