The Welsh Republic

 * Government: Republic
 * Ruler: Leader Alwyn Davies
 * Act 2:1 - Mobilisation Act: Wars ravage around us. All the nations in England are at war or were at war. This worries us as we barely have an army. Therefore, as per this act, we are to mobilise an army at a fast rate. Therefore, multiple army bases are built scattered around the nation. We enlist and train volounteers, which are encouraged by the considerable pay, the free housing and food, as well as the pride and patriotism for the country.
 * Act 2:2 - Ship Building Act: Our Navy Consists of 4 small sloop ships. Its time to change that. We create jobs in South Wales and give the people integrated into our nation as per the Reunion jobs in the Shipbuilding sector. Firstly, a small port is made in South Wales, while the Ship Builders work on ships in the more developed North Wales. Then, Builders build more Docks in South Wales and the Ship Builders are spread between these docks in an efficient manner. After a number of Docks are made, they are then expanded to build bigger ships, such as Galleys, Longships and Larger Transport Ships.
 * Act 2:3 - Development of Military Research Act: Our Military lacks Quantity, so we have to make up in Quality. Therefore, we establish a Military Scholarship Base in the Midlands of Wales, where there is lots of space to test weapons and it is isolated and defended. Thanks to Act 1:2, a number of people are now qualified to join the Base. (Research done by this Academy will from now on be displayed on a seperate Heading)
 * Act 2:4 - Assisted Self Development Act: After the Reunion Act, we have gained a lot of comparatively less developed lands. One of our big goals is to achieve homogenuous development throughout the nation. This, however, can be an issue, since we can't spare much gold or resources. Therefore, we encourage self development, where the small settlements of people are encouraged to harvest resources and build buildings themselves. However, this is assisted by the government, where the government provides tools and a small number of animals to as many settlemets they can reach. This is supplied by wagons, defended by a troop of cavalry each. 15 Wagons roamed South Wales, refilling in the closest cities. Over these 10 years, it is estimated that 69% of all settlements are met, while about 92% of the sizeable settlements are met. Food is provided to people that are malnourished in cities and other people are given farmable land and are told to develop them, farm in them, and develop housing. If they are not used correctly, the people are removed from the land, and given to others. Other lands are overseen by the government directly while homeless or poorer people are given jobs on them. These lands are used for farming and the homeless people are given housing, some food and a small pay in return.
 * Economy:
 * Our Economy is expanding in the agriculture field, as per our new revolutionary land using systems. At the same time, Iron is discovered in small traces in South West Wales as of now. Due to the lack of development, we are only extracting a small amount. We are also expanding our logging industry and our fishing industry (thanks to Act 2:2 making boats more widespread). Our economy is also booming thanks the trade with Scotland and Leinster.
 * Exported Material: Sheep Fur, Sheep Meat, Wood, Crops, Fish, Ships
 * Imported Material: Metals
 * Main Trade Centres: Colwyn Bay, Aberystwyth
 * Demographics:
 * Capital: Bangor
 * Total Population: 91,529 (Increased drastically because of Act 1:4 and The Reunion integrating many people)
 * Percentage of Population on lower income: 78% (Reduced because of Increased Jobs)
 * Cities:
 * Bangor: 9,812 people
 * Colwyn Bay: 6,831 people
 * Aberystwyth: 6,193 people
 * Caernarfon: 4,126 people
 * Llandudno: 4,031 people
 * Wrexham: 3,941 people
 * Machynlleth: 3,109 people
 * Religion: Catholic Christian (78%), Celtic Christian (16%), Other (6%)
 * Operations and Expansions: 
 * Gloucester Integration Aftermath: While our military and people were able to enter Gloucestershire perfectly well, building long term settlements was not anywhere as easy. Our mistake came because we didn't develop the land routes to the region so our supplies couldn't reach the fledgling settlements and other than crops which take a long time, and animals, that were limited, the settlements were starved. With news of the death of colonists coming to the mainland, all people were pulled out to reduce death. What remained was a few, half built settlements and abandoned farms, farms that shouldn't die anytime soon because of the rain. The Military Base is also abandoned with some equipment left behind.
 * Return to Gloucestershire: Our first failure could be attributed to our lack of transport link as far as we can tell. Having learnt from our mistake, and taking into consideration Act 2:2, this time we expand in Gloucestershire across the sea, where we build settlements close to the sea where smaller ships can act as fishing vessels to provide food locally instead of having to rely on the mainland fully while the crops grow and animals breed. At the same time, using our Southern Docks, we also ship resources to these settlements. This is all while a group of workers, supplied with food and accompanied by a Platoon of Swordsmen and Archers, try to establish Road connections between the Settlements and the Mainland. At the same time, A troop of cavalry escort a wagon to retract the equipment left in the army base.
 * Glouchestershire Plans: The settlements are to be built by civilians brought to the land using Cogs and Galleys, each group coming with enough food to support them for at least a week. With the ships that carried people, other Cogs are to come bearing enough wood and stone to build buildings. The first building to be built, apart from small housing for the workers, is a sort of Dock to house cogs which are to be used for fishing. Cogs and sloops with food are to come to the settlement every 2 days. The Dock is also to be used to make disembarking goods easier than before. This trend of shipping good continues until the Dock is built in one settlement. Then, ships are to visit the settlement daily with goods, to expand it and to build settlements branching out of the first one. People are to be added to the settlement, people who are aiming to start their own society. The insertion of resources is to continue, until the settlement has achieved self-reliance, at which point, there will be trade between them and the mainland. 4 sloops are ready to send in resources into the Settlements if things go sour.

 * Fishing Vessels: 46
 * Ship Builders: 7513 Workers
 * Military Research Projects (Moderators, determine the effect of this):
 * Amidst the Ship Building Craze, our scholars are researching the effect of Triangular Sails, which were used in Italy in the 13th Century, and have come from Arabia. They are seeing if a sort of ship can be made with these sails.
 * Diplomacy:
 * York: Trade Agreement?
 * Lancaster: Trade Agreement?
 * Ulster: Trade Agreement?
 * Munster: Trade Agreement?
 * Cumbria: We break all ties. Your attack on Northumberland was unwarranted and unjustified.
 * Anti-Cumbria Coalition: We join the coalition
 * Events:
 * Death of Bethan Hughes: The First Leader of the Republic of Wales, Bethan Hughes, abdicated after her health worsened due to aging. This led to elections throughout the nation, where young Alwyn Davies was elected, thanks to his revolutionary Land Sharing plans and his military ambitions. Bethan Hughes eventually passed away, on the 6th of April 1414 and was buried, escorted by a crowd of mourning Welsh.
