Gotta admit I like the idea

Wiltshire Yeoman thank you for your contribution. Accepted.

As of now we need at least 4 more players to commence this RP.

P.S.:Please note that title of Grande Prince of Finland is impossible to hold as it is independent kingdom in this RP

Only three applicants so far... I am being a little concerned.

I suppose Prussia is still where it is. And maybe the Finnish king has its right to rule there, but that is up to him... Get my point?

V.Rothschild thanks for applying. Indeed somewhat "French" is the attitude you have, and I sure like it! Accepted.

From now on we still need 6 more players, although I believe we could do it without Egypt as well.

No problem to hand over Russia to your capable hands, as there is no need for historic accuracy at all!

I somehow think of this RP as such: I wake up one morning, finding out I am a king of a country in 1701 AD and take it from there (Hohenzollerns in Finland?!)

Thank you both for applying.

Ikkeenniem, I am pending request for Finland, but would like to see a sample article.

As for InYourHeart at least a clue for what country interests you most would help.

And as of now, we need 7 more players

It is the year 1715. Europe is a mess of kingdoms, and not one single country is capable enough to call itself a superpower.

It is a vacuum created after series of bloody wars between interests of kings and ideals. It is a vacuum of unclaimed possessions within Europe and beyond...

Several countries have tried to establish colonies in north America, but none of them actually succeeded.

This vast land is open for exploration and exploitation.

NORTH AFRICA:

Westward of Nile delta there are lands claimed by local chiefs, yet not one has been capable to establish any kind of central government. These lands are united only by the islamic faith and nothing else.

REST OF NON-PLAYABLE COUNTRIES:

Fields of Germany, Ukrainian stepes, Portuguese shores, rolling hills of Italy and Greek islands have rulers, yet they lack competence and influence. These lands are ripe to fall under influence of their neighbours or they are

to become fields where military glory and prestige will be won between contesting powers...

All of AI provinces have each of their own sovereign: duke, prince, sultan, chief, you name it. Meaning that Munich is its own country and so is Danzig etc. Since they are both part of " OOC German empire" lets say they are involved in some sort of mutual conferedation united by same culture. Same goes for all the rest of countries that are not human controlled.

POTENTIALS:

Wars in Europe to capture the era of early modern warfare... that of Peter the Great, Frederick the Great, and Napoleon;

Become colonial power of the age with your powerful navy; Establish a delicate diplomacy and compete for prestige of your country; Create your own version of history; have some fun!

***By applying to this game please read all the rules and post a sample article.***

***Also, there is no Discord or Skype for this roleplay, as I believe it is much better to do communication only through the game itself.***

***less activity is lost opportunity***

***Lets hope the community is still alive enough to see some of good old RP***
