The Future: Collapse (Map Game)

Yes, this is another future game! However, this game will strictly watch out for players who are being too OP or unrealistic. However, the world relapsed back into an economic crisis like the one in the 1930s. ISIS is in full force, Ebola is still ravaging West Africa, and Ukraine is in the middle of a crisis. Large organizations like UN, EU, EAU, ASEAN, and CARICOM have collapsed due to the crisis. The world is about the enter another Great Depression, and now all the countries have to fend for themselves. Unless, of course, you are able to forge alliances and rise to the top. Invading is not necessarily the solution here, economy is.

Rules

 * Be plausible. If you think that something you're putting in your turn is OP, contact staff and they'll consider it.
 * Remember, money is crucial here, you can't just raise your army by 500,000 in this game.
 * Colonies are allowed if they're not too big, but don't just randomly unite Poland and Djibouti.
 * If you're in a conflict with another player, try to find a compromise and listen to their ideas.
 * Ask before joining the game.
 * 1 country per person.
 * Remember, this game is focused on economy, not war. Be sure to include a sizable economy section in your turns. You can even use Norway's turns as an example (but don't copy everything from them either).
 * RULES ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE.

Player Turns

 * Kingdom of Norway:
 * Diplomacy
 * Denmark: Relations and trade increase between the two nations, and Norway sends an alliance request.
 * Sweden: Relations somewhat increase because of the increased trading, and Norway requests and NAP.
 * Iceland: relations also increase and Norway sends an alliance request.
 * UK: alliance request sent by Norway.
 * Germany: alliance request sent by Norway.
 * Greece: Accepts the agreement to open trade.
 * Economy: The economy of Norway, like many other economies, is stagnating at this point. However, before the crisis, Norway was one of the richest and safest countries in the world. Norway is still struggling to keep that title and starts to trade with many nations in Europe. This helps their economy go up, as their main exports are petroleum, lumber, and fish. At the end of the year, the economy has finally a little, but there is still a lot to do. Norway also starts planning to create an organization successor to the Nordic Council. However, this hasn't taken of yet. Norway's ultimate goal is to create a self-sufficient country that is sanction-proof and embargo-proof and that dsurvive on its own without any other country or organization's help. Norway also raised the taxes a tiny bit, but not too much, because its citizens are already heavily taxed. Norway was never in the EU, so their currency remains the Krone, which has less inflation than the Euro.
 * Government: Many Norwegians are slowly beginning to think that a kingdom wouldn't be suitable for a struggling country, and that a liberal republic would be better, like Algeria. However, there's not much fuss about this so the government is still a kingdom. It currently has only 3% of votes. This new party also wants to change the English name of Norway to something else, like Norge or Norland. However, the public hasn't spoken about this. Oslo is also renamed Kristiania.
 * Environment and Parks: because of the crisis, Norway would have to start chopping down more trees and fishing more fish. This is getting harder because of the increased scarcity of fish and the environmental activists who want to keep the environment of Norway pristine. After many peaceful protests in cities (they're everywhere basically, but most of them are in Tromso, Bodo, Trondheim, and Lillehammer), the "Storting", or Parliament of Norway, finally gave in and passed many more laws that prohibited the environment in over one hundred areas of Norway to be altered. However, this didn't help the economy.
 * Military: Not much change happens in the military because Norway currently is in a state of pacifism and does not intend to join a war anytime soon. The total number of land forces is still 83,000 in total. Some 10,000 reserve troops are switched to active military to create 33,000 total active military. As for the sea forces, 5 more ships start to be built, but not too much that can hinder the economy. This creates a total of 75 ships by the end of the year. 2 are heavy frigates, 2 are patrol boats, and 1 is a submarine. The Air Force doesn't increase, though.
 * Language and Culture: The Bokmål and Nynorsk dialects stilol coexist peacefully together and not much changes. However, ALL of Norway officially recognizes Sami as an official language of Norway, whereas before it was only official in 9 municipalities. The Samis are given some autonomy.
 * Infrastructure: Many people start enlarging cities, and some old abandoned towns in the far north are now being renovated so they can once again hold people. These projects are called "Project Utvidelse" which translates into "enlargement". The goal of this project is to house the future population of Norway. This project has started off slow due to the unseen economical crisis.
 * Agriculture: Citizens in big cities are encouraged to move out and start a rural life to increase food production. This year, food was not at surplus, but Norway estimates that next year there will be some.
 * Education: Though Norway wanted to prioritize education to equip the future generations to be loyal citizens to the country, the crisis caught the government by surprise and now the government prioritized the economy. However, when the economy is better, the plan will be put in place. The government has already passed laws hat prohibit propaganda in schools, and now 30% of once free schools now require tuition fees due to the raised taxes and the crisis.
 * Prisons: the prisons that were seen on magazines that looked like resorts are now being renovated into apartments, resorts, and hotels, because roughly 63% of the population said that prisoners should not receive that. Instead, regular prisons are being upgraded to fit the rehabilitation laws to Norway.
 * Puppets, Colonies, Occupied Land
 * Svalbard: The seed storage of Svalbard is still kept in a secret location so nobody can enter it. However, Svalbardians are experiencing warmer temperature due to global warming. More scientists move there because of their studies.
 * Jan Mayen: the tiny island with a population of 18 has somewhat become a scientist's paradise due to its location. The population rises to 25 and more homes are built for the scientists.
 * Revolts, Riots, and Protests
 * Environmental Activist Protests: these protests are to keep the environment of Norway intact and for the environment not to get ruined. They prove successful when the parliament passed laws that created over 100 national parks in Norway.
 * Pro-Liberal Republic Protests: these are tiny with having only been done 6 times this year. However, they started to pick up followers and supporters throughout the year. These people want to end the kingdom peacefully and and start a new era for Norway: a republic. The government currently pays no attention to this.


 * Republic of Greece:
 * Diplomacy
 * Macedonia and Albania: attempts to Annex them begins diplomatically and influentially and Economically first with FTA's and Economic Packs and more actions will be done after
 * Turkey: Hostile Relations ensue War may come in future years if it is not improved
 * Tunis,Algeria,France,Morocco,Spain,Norway,Germany,Portugal,Belgium,Britain,Italy and Netherlands: a FTA was sent (Free trade Agreement) in a attempt to Improve Greece's Situation economically
 * Military
 * Army increased by 5000
 * Navy does not grow
 * air force does not grow
 * Economy
 * is Unsurprisingly doing bad at the moment and is most likely causing conflicts to flare Greece is trying it's Best to counter it and short term plans are being set in Motion to allow time to get more Long term Plans for recovery thought up and under way
 * Infrastructure: as Part of a Plan Infrastructure has Been put a focus on it also Commercial stimulation is being used to Help Greek Business stay afloat and is doing somewhat OK so far
 * Espionage
 * Turkey: it starts to Infiltrate the Turkish Government to Destabilize it further
 * Greece: Counter-espionage is Placed to counter spy's
 * Culture and Religion
 * Greece Appears to be Going back in time a bit in this Category as Older customs are getting Popular this also includes the Hellenic Mythology and Many Sources had shown both Official and Unofficial sources say that it is Defenetly increasing in Popularity reasons appear to be that Greeks are trending to older customs as said earlier and Devotion to Christianity is dropping
 * National Stability
 * Greece is on the Verge of Collapse at this Moment due to Many issues happening at once and is Trying to Remedy this problem


 * United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland:
 * The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, seeing Ireland as a threat to try take away Northern Ireland, sends parts of it's active army to the border. Irish riots and attacks have been cause by the Irish Republicans witnessed in cities such as Belfast and Londonderry/Derry. Eventually the police get involved which doesn't calm the riots at all. At last parts of the army at the border come and put the riots to rest. But that only causes little revolts, which are easily crushed. After all this, the UK fortifies it's borders with Ireland so no revolts would occur through the border. They also blockade Northern Ireland to secure water positions in the island. Eventually, the UK starts bombing and attacking Irish cities close to the border, as a sign of a declaration of war. They advance quickly, standing at the gate of Dublin. This is easy as Ireland was in debt sin 2015.


 * People's Republic of China:
 * As the Chinese economy slowly collapses, China calls for drastic actions. Firstly, the East Asian Union is made - a union that will help nations economically under the same currency. Mongolia, Vietnam, and South Korea join, but North Korea is banned from ever joining, due to it's current state. After Korean rebels strike in Seoul and bomb banks, China officially declares war on the DPRK, with South Korea soon joining China in the humiliation of North Korea. Around 300,000 troops storm past the Chinese-Korean border and all ports are blocked. China stops all aid sent to Korea and blockades most of their ports, meaning that North Korea is likely to collapse. However, more terrorist attacks in Shanghai and Beijing show that North Korea is not done yet. Forces push through in the direction of Pyongyang. The war continues.Diplomatic relations between Mongolia and China increase dramatically after Mongolia's entrance to the war due to the attacks in China. An invitation to join the EAU is sent to Japan.


 * Republic of Italy:
 * Economy: The European Union collapses, Italy has fallen into the economical crisis like the other countries in the world. In order to survive this crisis, they would probably need to increase it's trading and increase taxes (will make people more angry). Italy would also attempt to find a way to increase it's trading efficiency and finally, the government begins a plan on changing the current currency euro to the old one since the inflation is very high.
 * Protests, Rebellions and Riots:
 * The 'Tax Protests': The people are unsatisfied with the high taxes being imposed by the Italian government, so many people protest around Italy to lower the taxes, but the Italian government isn't able to lower it yet, but it will gain attention by next year.
 * Diplomacy:
 * Slovenia: Protests happen in Trieste since some of the Slovene patriots in Trieste want to join Slovenia (see the protests, rebellions and riots for details). The Italian soldiers are deployed to the borders of Slovenia and Trieste in case if a war happens.
 * Germany, Algeria and Greece: Accepts the FTA agreement.
 * Austria: Attempts to improve relations and sends a FTA agreement.
 * Spain, Portugal, Belgium, Ireland, The Netherlands and Luxembourg: Sends a FTA agreement.
 * Croatia: Possible irredentist claims in Trieste may reduce the relations in Italy.
 * Military: Stagnant in navy and air force. But the army has only recruited 500 due to the economical crisis. For the navy force, the production on ships are prioritised and around 10 ships are planned and the aim is to remove Malta from the map, and then try gaining more land after the economical crisis has being solved.
 * Culture and Religion: Muslim population increases due to the migrant boats arriving in the Mediterranean in hope for new jobs and home from war and poverty, the Italian government sees this as a priority to employment but for now, no action has being taken to refugees.
 * Resources and Environment: Italy starts prioritise industrial products in order to increase their trading, such as computers. The natural resources are being used for personal, production, and export purposes in a higher rate than ever. Trees are being chopped down for agricultural usage in case if food is scarce and a project on preserving food via refrigeration in storages is purposed.
 * Government: The Italian elections will start by the next three years.
 * Infrastructure: Venice is slowly being abandoned because of floodings, sweeping the infrastructure of Venice away, the villages grow in size to reduce the population in cities, this should encourage the immigrants and possibly people who are interested on a rural life or whatever they prefer.
 * Science and Technology: Science is being less focused for economy, meaning breakthroughs and picking up technology from other nations (even though technology isn't being traded anymore due to the economical crisis) is slowing down. For science, they are focusing on biology to discover any remaining species such as plants, bacteria and animals.
 * Education: The education funding increases but economy is still being prioritised than education. This may ensure to increase literacy higher for the uneducated and plans to build more of those schools in areas that are not well educated.


 * Federal Republic of Germany:
 * Diplomacy
 * Accepts Norway's alliance request.
 * Sends alliance request to UK.
 * Sends free trade request to UK, Norway, Italy and France.
 * Increases trade with Czech, Austria and Denmark as an attempt to improve the economy. Relations with said nations are also increased, but no military alliance yet.
 * Accepts Greece's free trade agreement.
 * Economy
 * Germany has fallen into an economy crisis like other countries. Germany attempts to revive, or at least slightly improve it's economy by trading with other nations.
 * Germany takes a free-market model as their future economic model. That means Germany encourages trading and private businesses.
 * The government subsidises basic needs for people living in poverty by increasing spending in social welfare. This will slightly lower Germany's economy, but makes the people happier and less likely to riot.
 * Military
 * Army increased by 20 000 people due to conscription


 * Russian Federation:
 * As the economic crisis begins to engulf Russia, Putin does little except a few small reforms which are not worthy of being mentioned. The, Putin comes down with lung cancer, and dies on January 16th. The new president, Ivan Vladimir, decides to cut Russian trade with Europe and Central Asia, hoping that the crisis would not spread to Russia as quickly. The borders are closed as European immigrants begin to storm into Kalingrad. A Russian garrison quickly defeats the refuges quickly flee. However, President Ivan quickly becomes known as a communist. He declares the Soviet Union refounded. He quickly puts down economic reforms which push people to work more and more to improve trade with China and America. Oil is decided not to be imported from the Middle East, as Russia can produce it's own. The population, mostly in Siberia, is encouraged to "populate" the country. Plans to reform the outdated Russian army is planned for next year.

Arab Republic of Algeria:
 * Economy: Algeria sees the Economic Crisis as a gate to Catch up with the Western world. They start Exporting Oil Reserves and begin Industrilisation, although on small scale in the Start. They also hire Engineers and such to come up with a plan to Increase Agriculture in the Southern Desert, in case of Famine.
 * Diplomacy: Algeria, afraid of Being attacked by one Neighbor or another, works for making better Relations with its neighbors, except for one: Morocco, whom Algeria is mad at because of the Opression of the Sahrawi People (Sahrawi is W.S.). They also try to make Mauritaniajoin them in case of a war, since Mauritania supports the Sahrawi Arab Rep. and even made an Option to Annex it in past Polls (you can check my words here, it's true). They also attempt to Improve relations with European Nations, and ask France, the UK, Germany, Italy and Spain for a Free Trade Agreement.
 * Inner Politics: The Government is at Breaking point, and after Collapsing, Elections are held for the first time. A Liberal Government is elected, and makes Algeria more Progressive, less Religous, and also Commits the actions above. However, they also call for the People to join the Military, in case for a war.


 * Republic of South Korea:
 * War: After using artillery to clear out North Korean troops on the dmz, bomb squads are sent in to disarm the mines. After this is done 230k soldiers surge into the nation supported by tanks and seize a lot of territory in the southern regions. South Korea attempts to bomb Pyongyang however heavy defenses in the area manage to take down 90% of the bombers sent. Artillery shells military positions scattering troops before South Korean soldiers move in to finish them off.
 * Economy: The economy was already in a terrible state before the war. The war has put a lot of stress on the economy and taxes are raised out of necessity. Riots break out and change is demanded. Money is printed at 50Xs the normal rate to temporarily boost the economy. Problems expect to arise in the near future due to massive inflation but the government has no other choice at this point.
 * Riots: Police react violently in the city of Chonju starting even more riots. The citizens of the city begin to attack police and destroying government buildings. Chonju is stated to be in full anarchy and this spreads to most of the province. 30k soldiers are brought in to try to quell the riots but some gangs have already sprang up and they openly attack the military. 300 soldiers are killed and 174 gang members are killed. 10 tanks are even called in to try to discourage the gangs. This works to some extent and only the most ruthless gangs continue to attack. Experts say that the extreme riots are due to the combination of war, taxes, police violence and most of all the global economic crisis as it is causing a high poverty rate.
 * Diplomacy: Diplomatic relations with Japan rise, along with China.
 * Government: Talks of becoming a communist country have begun as some officials have no idea where to go. Communists currently control about 7% of all votes.


 * The Kingdom Of Saudi Arabia:
 * A new monarch comes to power, and he begins to change policies and laws to help the people live in a more relaxed nation. Soon he has a Positive view from 88% of the nation. Now he has the people on his side, he begins plans for a greater Arabia, not a caliphate but a larger country to rule over. He declared war on Jordan on July 25th and begins to swiftly occupy the country. By the end of the year, The SA forces have reached Karak.Meanwhile, in Oman, protests begin against a new government alligned with Saudi Arabia. Hearing of these protests, the king of course sends units of troops to into Oman to try and crush these protests, even though they don't have permission for military personnel to access the borders. And even though SA's presence is made to discourage revolt, it becomes more popular where troops have left.The economy of the country is 15th biggest in the world, it is stagnating, however due to the new financial crisis.السعودية عمان! (Saudi out of Oman!) sign held by Omani citizen during a protest.


 * Kingdom of Thailand:
 * After collapse new king start ruling in Thailand. Economy is bad. Thailand look to get money start produccing influence in Brunei to get gas and oil. It is goin to take some time. Before this times much of money is was from tourism, but now who want fly on holidays to Thailand? Beacuse this Thailand start selling some historlical buildings to gain some money. Thailand try to reduce inflatation. At now his economy is only exporting food and selling AGD/RTV. Thailand don't put much in army now.Thailands ask for aliance all Indochinian countries with China and without Malacca. Thailands send troops to have control cities and find gangs etc. Police hour is maked.

MAP
 * Estados Unidos Mexicanos (Mexico):
 * Goverment: Peña's bad administration has caused an increase in poverty, unemployment, corruption and crime. His popularity among the mexican people has decreased a lot, even the high-ranked generals of the army are starting to plot a coup for the next year. Opposition groups are growing, particularly the "sinarquistas" (of fascist-conservative ideology) have gained more support among the population, they promise to make Mexico great once again and restore the economy. On December 1st, they win their register at INE and become an official political party named "Unión Sinarquista Mexicana (USM)", they plan to contest in 2016 and 2018 elections. Other important opposition groups like MORENA also win support. Meanwhile, Peña Nieto starts a plan to revive the economy.
 * Economy: Just like most of the world, Mexico has entered in an economic crisis, the goverment can do little to improve the economy for now. However, Peña Nieto starts a plan to revive the economy, it basically consists of opening the trade with other countries by signing free trade agreements with them. Trade is mostly done with the USA and the Caribbean countries. Due to the crisis, IVA (Taxes) is increased to 23%, angering the mexican people even more. Mexico mainly exports are vehicles, electronic equipment, oil and vegetables. The peso is still "stable" but the inflation is slowy increasing.
 * Military: As the situation in the country seems to be starting to become more and more unstable with the rise of the EZLN, Peña Nieto orders the recruitment of 35,000 new regular troops. The navy and the air force do not increase thougth.
 * Anti-Goverment Protests: Protests and riots againts Peña's goverment occur across the entire country. The 43 kidnapped students in September 2014 have became a very popular symbol among the protesters, expressions such as "Ayotzinapa no se olvida" and "Vivos se los llevaron, vivos los queremos" are used. In some areas of the country, the protesters have turned violent and have cause major riots, this mostly occurs in the states of Guerrero, Oaxaca and Chiapas. EZLN, leaded by "Subcomandante Marcos" has also raised in arms once again in Chiapas, they declare war on the goverment and take control of some rural areas in Chiapas. Peña's goverment has been unable to contain the guerrilla. Protests againts the goverment duplicated after the war againts Belize and the plans to revive the Pacific Alliance.
 * War on Drugs: After a full escale operative was done by the armed forces, Ismael Zambada García aka "El Mayo Zambada" (One of the most important mexican drug cartels member) was captured in a ranch in the outsides of Culiacán. As a result of this, the Sinaloa Cartel is weakened and becomes disorganized due to internal fights for powers, resulting in a "great advance in the fight againts the drug cartels" according to Peña. But the true is that this has backfired, since the result was an increase in violence inside the cartel, causing more firefights and such in cities controlled by the Sinaloa Cartel.
 * Education: The education system of Mexico has become even worse with the recent decrease in the economy, teachers recieve lower salaries and they go to protests motivated by the CNTE, resulting in a very incomplete education for the students. This mostly happens in Sourthen States.
 * Diplomacy:
 * Colombia, Peru, Chile, Panama and Ecuador: As most international organizations collapse, Mexico thinks that reviving the Pacific Alliance is important, since this would increase the trade and therefore help to resolve the crisis, because of this, the Mexican Goverment sends an invitation to 5 countries to create the "Alianza Económica Hispanoamericana (AEH)" and they invite the countries of Colombia, Peru, Chile, Panama and Ecuador to join this newly created economic bloc (I think NPC must reply to this in the NPC Events). This will also obviusly cost a lot and will probably damge the economy even more, but go ask Peña....
 * USA and Canada: Mexico request a Free Trade Agreement with both countries and proposes the renovation of the TLCAN.
 * War againts Belize: In a desesparate attempt to gain more resources for trading and more tourism, Peña decides to invade Belize and conquer it. In September 16th, 55,000 cross the border into Belize from Quintana Roo. The mexican troops, which are superior to Belize's army by far, conquer Belize City by October 25th. Belize is defeated, resulting in 6,500 casualities in the Belizian side(1,500 being soldiers, the rest civilians) and just 250 in the mexican side (Only soldiers). Belize is integrated into Mexico as the 32th federal state. However, this war was also bad seen by the mexican people and created a perfect distraction for the EZLN in Chiapas. Guatemala and Honduras were also enraged by Mexico's actions.

Russian Federation: President Ivan Vladimir notices Russian morale since the crisis began in 2008 has dropped massively. He decides to recreate a government that can manage Russia militarily and economically. He announces himself Czar of the Russian Empire, and titles himself Czar Ivan I of the Russian Empire. Ivan realizes that Russia's spending on it's army is a major reason Russia is in debt. The air force is mothballed, leaving only 100 fighter jets to defend Russia from air attack. All nuclear weapons are sold to other countries in South America and Africa for huge amounts of money. The navy is mostly mothballed, with about 10 destroyers and 1 aircraft carrier remaining active. The armored units in the army are mothballed as well, with only about 200 T-40 tanks left in the open. The infantry is marked at around 950,000 active soldiers, with a further 1.4 million in reserve. Transports are the only part of the army not cut down. This move helps Russia's economy grow massively. Russia joins the EAU, trading oil with fellow members in exchange for industry as Russia begins to modernize Siberia. Russian logging becomes a huge industry, and this reduces the Russian National Debt to about 5.4 trillion rubles. Russia also sends troops to the Artic Circle, claiming the region for Russia to use it's natural resources. The Russian population is numbered at around 200 million, and about 1.6 million are homeless, with a further 5 million in poverty levels. Ivan I begins to plan for organizing the country, and annexes pro-Russian regions in Georgia.

United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland: After accepting the alliance offer from Germany, the UK requests an Economical Union to the UK and Germany called the European Economical Union or EEU for short. To join this would bring great wealth between the two nations as well as a strong army. Focusing on the war now. The War between Ireland and the UK continues to rage on as the UK captures port cities to stop them invading via sea. The UK send their airorce to bomb places such as Cork and Dublin multiple times. The UK try and force Ireland into Surrender if they do not themselves. The war nears an end, and Ireland is almost defeated. Dublin is ceased and is burnt to the ground. Scottish Rebels do not approve of this and Rebel in Edinburgh. Britain sends some soldiers to try and put the Rebellion to rest. This hopefully puts the Rebellion to rest.

Greece:(wip)

Diplomacy Military Espionage Economy
 * Turkey: both sides refuse to talk to each-other and if one single incident on the border were to happen war will probably ensue
 * Albania and Macedonia: a treaty is offered to allow Greek Media in there country's with no restraint and vis versa but greece will insert subliminal messages in it to make the people in there country's more Greek as the years go on this is also inserted in greece it's self to make sure greece it's self doesn't get influenced
 * nothing happens really
 * Turkey:Greek sabotage begins to damage turkeys ability to function as Turkey is having trouble keeping order which is made worse with the crisis which though is hurting Greece like a bitch is having an awkward benefit of giving greece the chance to knock down turkey from here foundations
 * Tax: a general increase by 10% was made
 * Trade: even though the crisis is having a dampening effect of it it's been increasing due to many FTA's which is helping with dampening the crisis
 * Commerce: the stimulation program is having effect on it and it's positive and it increases about a 9%
