Talk:The Future: New Era (Map Game)/@comment-26044830-20160730031243

repost, will do more later (also taken down mind control)

Drakhian Empire (Official) | Drakia (Short term) | Greece/Graecia (Alternative) Imperial Drakhian Land Forces (IDLF) | Land Forces: Last year it had over 293,000 when they mobilised for war, now they have cionscripted and reached over 350,000 through employing the unemployed militarily.
 * Skopje/Skopia Attacks: At 12th March, a man has carried a weapon in Skopje/Skopia and upon reaching around this point of interest (this area is now called Square of Constantine the Great in an assimilation campaign performed by the Occidental Party) and shooting a lot of people around as if he had psychotic issues. Later the police came and shot him to death. It is later found that only 28 people were dead and over 19 were severely injured. At first it was thought to be Islamic State but later found out the perpetrator was to be associated with IMRO. Further actions were taken to them and by the end of the year, most of IMRO was dissolved forcibly but it's in a trail performed by DCIC secretly that lead to this. They have also cleared their own tracks of being responsible by forcing the leaders to never reveal this via persuasion or be forced to death.
 * Government: Paul II of Drakia continues pursue of imperialism and expanding their claims and also assigns a loyal general Demetrios Protis to replace the Ministry of Defence head with him and also rename that one into the Ministry of Forces and Logistics. All military-related sectors in government are now assigned by monarch not by the body of constitution.
 * Continuation of Suppressing IMRO and Albanian Nationalists (and its associated political parties): By now most of these organised rebel organisations are now breaking down thanks to suppression, but some still resist and are now connected to underground organisations.
 * Political parties
 * Research
 * Kapodistrias-class Aircraft Carrier: It's still in construction since 2016 and is about 2.5x larger than existing European aircraft carriers, now since the Drakhian government and military is mostly impatient, they clearly built 2 as announced but is expected to be done next year for the first one and about three years for the second.
 * Tjekov-class Transport: Old transport ships were never good enough anyway. Again, just like Kapodistrias-class, it is larger than the current Greek transport and could carry 5,000 soldiers each rather than 1,000-1,500 of them depending how heavy the equipment is put in. Other equipment (tanks) are put into an armoury close enough to land but enough room inside the ship to fill with a lot of soldiers. Currently planned to have 20 of them, each would be produced every year and if next turn had Tunisia annexed, about two would be produced because these ships are in comparison with a typical aircraft carrier (~340m), along with higher floors for more storage dedictaed to men.
 * Military: More unemployed mostly in their newly annexed areas of Bulgaria (southern particularly) were conscripted and with that, unemployment rates are lowered to 9.3% by the end of the year and results have over 500,000 men in active and reserves to cover the losses of over 100,000 men during Operation Hanno.
 * Imperial Drakhian Land Forces (IDLF) | Land Forces
 * Imperial Drakhian Maritime Forces (IDMF) | Naval Forces: The Drakhian navy improves even more than they could produce (this is a priority to get superiority and claim over the Eastern Mediterranean) and started producing their own rather than doing it for foreign nations. They also begin to continue building their first aircraft carrier (more funding is given). 29 submarines, 23 frigates, 5 destroyers, 12 gunboats, 10 transport ships and 6 patrol boats
 * The Drakhian Centre of Intelligence and Covet (DCIC): Is an organisation that secretly counters any existing foreign spies in the nation and gather intelligence from nearby countries (not so much), collaborating with the military indirectly and also secretly. Currently it has over 1,200 spies, mostly chosen carefully by loyalty and to conceal their identities, their identity is entirely erased through secret destruction (this is the only way to let them in even if they are loyal, if they don't want to accept their identity erased, they don't join), from birth certificates to citizenship and are stationed everywhere in Drakia, with even more in Paeonia (FYROM) and Epirus.
 * Imperial Guard of Drakhia | Imperial Guards and Bodyguards: Over an estimated 150,000 are part of the IGD and is formed since 2017 when Athens and other police forces for merged and integrated to military.
 * Conflicts
 * Operation Atatürk (National; Turkey; 23rd January 2018-present): In an aim to regain Constantinople (Istanbul) from Turkish hands since the fall of Constantinople in 1453 and that Turkey is currently being distracted from Turks and Islamic militants, Drakia announces Operation Atatürk at 23rd January. The United Kingdom (having to still control bases in Cyprus) will gain the Mersin Province in an exchange for some support just few days ago as to outnumber the Turks in the western and southern fronts. Around 300,000 were rounded up and mobilised from Dardania (security is cut down), Paeonia (same) and those men prepare an attack between 23 January to 15 February while the Drakhian fleet of planes have bombarded many other cities heavily over these days, with Istanbul, Izmir, Edirne and Bursa bombarded heavily but not colleteral. Many men attack across the Aegean Sea with 90,000 and heavy equipment such as artillery and heavy tanks, as well blockading the Turkish Aegean Sea with a lot of ships but not much happened at February. In the Eastern Thrace front, over 210,000 troops attack Edirne, Gelibolu and Corlu in 17th February and fell within 120 hours. During their march, they sent troops scouting across Istanbul, finding out that area is fortified mostly but not as much against the front in Kurdistan (it will break soon next year). This city was then besieged at 28th February and later this long siege took 4 months to eventually fall in the western part of Istanbul followed by few ships from the Aegean Sea redirected to the Bosphorus Strait were made once 120,000 men reach the eastern part of Istanbul, which took 96 hours to cross, before taking them down by explosives to prevent the Turks from coming back to Eastern Thrace (until annexation) and the only way is to cross by boat not by walking or driving.
 * Operation Punic (National; Tunisia; 7th February 2018-24th April 2018): Drakia is stupid (and anyways want colonies, yeah I don't give a crap about whether Rome is going to invade them later [probably after Libya] but I'm addicted to colonialism). They attack with 102,000 or so soldiers and landed at Sfax, Sousse and Gabes when they landed at 9th February. Tunisia eventually fell and during the siege of Tunis, most of their army got destroyed when they heavily fortified Tunis during the Drakhian invasion in the south between Late February to Mid March. This 18 day siege, which Tunisia held off and recaptured nearby towns have later being broken by Drakhian armies in the south after most of their armed forces in the south surrender. Tunis fell at 23rd April and Tunisia surrenders. The treaty of Chalcis signed in 24th April states that Drakia will annex all of Tunisia as a colony and named it as Karthagos.
 * Complete Withdrawal (The Levant; 15 February-6 March 2018): As the Battle of Beirut failed at 8th November 2017 and yet many Islamic militants have overran most of Lebanon by now, Drakhian military in the area announces a withdrawal while having Cypriot planes distract the Islamic-captured planes from the former Syrian military air fleet at February while they fail at the frontline in Sidon. This bloody battle have caused a further 62,000 casualties of Drakhian men, but eventually few ships were able to evacuate at the port of Tyre, but some were heavily bombarded by Islamic State's planes and sank 3 transport ships out of 8 transport ships, but carried about 10,000 (3,000 of them are from the original division that captured Lebanon) and returned to Cyprus completely as survivors but are also redirected to attack Tunisia except those who originally were in Operation Hanno (they were stationed here until further notice). Although this isn't over yet for Operation Hanno (I totally forgot), Drakia now really knows how powerful the Islamic State is, they have drawn new plans after Operation Ataturk (secretly) to reinforce a frontline when Islamic State closes in Ankara in the future (if they were able to get close enough when annexing it), say about 2 years from now.
 * Operation Metaxas (National; Casus Belli: acquire West Libya; 30 April-8 June 2018): Soldiers stationed in Tunisia attack the unstable country Libya, although this may disintegrate Roman relations (if they turn to colonisation), but their current ambition is to expand their own colonial ambitions and creating a "Neo-Carthage" in the future. Tripoli was besieged for 7 days and they fell and they continue to occupy a lot of land until they reach what they want, they annex Fezzan and West Tripolitana (including Tripoli) from Libya at June after swiftly defeating a lot of Libyan soldiers when they reach Cyrenaica. Looks like Rome may be pissed off from that.
 * Regions: It used to be Macedonia, Paeonia, Thrace, Epirus, Thessaly, Attica, Peloponnese, Cyprs and Crete and the Aegean Islands which makes up 9, since annexation of Kosovo and south Bulgaria, they created provinces Dardania and Odrysia. Cities include:
 * Attica: Imperial Capital of Athens
 * Peloponnese: Royal City of Corinth, Sparta, Kalamata, Patras
 * Crete and the Aegean Islands: Royal City of Heraklion, Rhodes, Chania
 * Thessaly: City of Larissa, Volos, Lamia and Thebes
 * Epirus: City of Ioannina, Arta, Aulona (Vlora)
 * Macedonia: Royal City of Thessaloniki, Serres, Kastoria, Kozani, Florina, Idomeni (merged with Gevgelija), Monastiri (Bitola)
 * Paeonia (rename fyrom later "cuz I so lazy"): Royal City of Skopia (rename to Skupi later), Ochrida, Prilapos, Stroumnitsa, Kumanovo, Veles, Radovis, Kavadartsi
 * Thrace (rename bulgaria later "cuz I so lazy"): Royal City of Alexandroupoli, Kavala, Drama, Komotini, Kardzhali, Smolyan
 * Dardania: Royal City of Pristina
 * Odrysia (rename bulgaria later "cuz I so lazy"): Royal City of Chaskovo, Gorna Dzumeia (Blagoevgrad), Asenovgrad (wtf why)
 * Analytics
 * Religion: More forced conversions are made to Muslims mainly towards children and a new law has passed, those who are Muslim are either forced to convert or if they don't want to, they are expelled from the country. This led to many Albanian children being converted much faster than normal rates last year would've expected. Survey shows 82.3% follow Eastern Orthodoxy and 1.2% are Sunni
 * Culture: A plan created by the Occidental Party aims to assimilate and make every civilian living in mainland Drakia be a Drakhian rather than fragmented cultures like Greek, Bulgarian and Turkish that does nothing. Huge persuasion and propaganda press will had to be made next year for that.
 * Population: The three child policy campaign still continues and even into their occupied regions and external colonies while the Muslim population is stabilising and declining through continous conversion performed by a lot of Eastern Orthodox priests, secretly funded by government, DCIC and the Greek Orthodox Church to convert the children to Christian but let the elders live as a Muslim and pass quietly. By the end of the year, the population rose to 18,852,000 and if you were born on 1st January 2016, you would be 2 years old now.
 * Greece (mainland Drakia): 12,012,000
 * FYR Macedonia / Region of Paeonia: 2,492,000
 * Cyprus: 1,380,000
 * Southern Bulgaria / Odrysia: 1,040,000
 * Kosovo / Dardania: 1,928,000
 * Infrastructure
 * Economy: The GDP grows from $29,200 to $32,000 due to economical reforms and FTAs in place.
 * Education and Public Services
 * Diplomacy:
 * Serbia: Guarantees independence without a reason and warns no-one in the region to attack the nation. Meanwhile they start a plan to set a coup for the next few turns as planned, even though they are still an avergae power (not a major power or a superpower), they want to destablise the region and if successful, create a monarchist kingdom out of it and loyal to Drakia. (I'm not doing a coup before you ask, I am preparing)
 * Iberia: Asks if both of the countries could parittion Algeria together.

ik turn 3 is not started yet but idc im going to start it anyways
