Something we may try

[Canton Rouge]

Seeing as how Ignatius (or Iggy if you so prefer) has thought of a potentially great idea, we may try it out here. If you need the info, check his RP Proposition post in the House of Members.

What it details is expansion based on your nation's economic, military, and capability levels, and also, if the rest of the world does not offend to your expansion.

To show how this might work, let's try a demonstration, using my nation for example:

Let's say I wanted to take the Lorraine region of France and the Franche-Comete region as well. We can see that my nation ha sa strong economy, a large enoguh military, and a reasonable population.

But here's the catch: What does the world think of this? If so many people disapprove of it, then we can see that you'll need to pick another place to expand.

In all honesty, we'll try this out, and if it doesn't work, then we'll work something out.

Feel free to leave comments here. And also, feel free to chime in on the scenario I presented (the land I want. Not that I'll take it, I want to see how it runs.)

Proposed RP Expansion Rule

OOC - This is heavily influenced by the RP rules in my other region, the European Continent, and has worked out fairly well in our excellent RP storylines there.

1) Before posting an RP of your expansion, PM the mapmaker first for permission to expand into the desired territory. The Map Maker (Canton Rouge) ultimately has the power to deny an unreasonable expansion (if the Nation has already expanded recently) to prevent 'noobs' from taking over an entire continent.

2) RP your expansion in the RP forums.

3) If another nation (and any nation can) disapproves of your expansion plans, they can directly intervene militarily to block your expansion without 'asking permission' to engage in war with you. Expanding nation has the choice to ignore the unfavorable responses of the opposing nation (therefore risking war with another power) and move in anyway, negotiate their claims to the land, or abandon expansion plans immediately.

Just something to emphasize, in case we didn't do so already:

MAKE THE REQUESTS REASONABLE!

In case that did not get to you, do not think a new nation automatically will own the entire continent. Thank you.
