I've just finished the initial map. Here it is:
This is the state of the world in the year 2032. This political state was caused by an exodus of almost all nations from the UN in 2024 which dramatically reduced it's power, leaving many powerful nations free to expand into neighbouring nations and take over. In North America, Mexico and Canada declared war on the USA, leaving the US President no choice but to order an attack on both nations and estabilish the NAU or North American Union. Anarchy takes hold in Central and Southern America as military rebellions become dramatically more frequent, whereby the new NAU takes action and invades. In Europe, the EU attempts to forcefully abolish the identity of it's member states and thus creates the Europa League. The Europa League expands outwards into a new maritime empire, halted eventually by the NAU and the EAU and the crippling invasion of the Russian Empire and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. In Africa, military coups manage to overthrow all governments and estabilish the Arfikaa nation, now struggling to hold off the Saudi advance. Across the north of Asia, Russia sees it's oppertunity and invades neighbouring nations en mass, forming the mighty Russian Empire. In the Middle East, Saudi Arabia aggresively expands into the rest of the Arabian Peninsula, successfully defeating the Europa League and the Russian Empire. In the Far East, Japan becomes militarised and manages to conquer a large sphere of territories, known as the EAU or Eastern Asian Union. It meets substantial resistance by the Europa League, the Russian Empire and Greater Korea who all manage to push them onto the defensive.
I've noticed that it's impossible to identify the smallest islands due to resolution. Here's the links to each individual island group:

The Undying.
Well, it would be beneficial to both of us, so I think that this could work... congradulations, you have a new ally.
Samurye.
Good. I declare the formation of the Pacific Treaty Coalition (PTC), a version of NATO only between the countries of the Pacific (Basically the EAU and NAU).
I start a campaign in South America and Greenland to liberate the areas taken by Europan forces, and Ask that the Europa Leauge cease their conflicts within the NAU, and focus their attention elsewhere. the NAU also places defensive structures on the polar border of canada, as to prevent the advancement of Russian forces to the North. finally, due to the newly formed PTC, the NAU aids the EAU against Russian forces, and sends them to the Siberian Campaign of the conflict between Russian and EAU forces.
In which case, this map will represent the scenario just before the NAU negotiates a ceasefire with the Europa League:
Fair enough, but I'm not going to follow the same policy. The Europa League is collapsing, and I'm racing against the Russian Empire to seize it. If Russia owns Europe, it will have the strength to wipe both me and Afrikaa from the map. At the moment, joining the PTC is not in my national interests, but I'm still happy to export my extensive oil surplus to the PTC through the NAU.
On a side note, it's worth looking at some of the small island chains, as their political state has changed.
Thank you, the oil will help a lot. The EAU ,with the help of the NAU, marches north into russia, steamrolling over the entire north-eastern portion of the country.
The Russian empire extends its greatest symapthaies to the kingdom of saudi arabaia (for something to be determined at a latter date) and would like to start an alliance for the aquization of europe. the trade of oil for diamonds will start immediately.
and jfk russias agents blow up some reconditioned nukes in tokyo for terror effects.
Not that I'm biasing my own faction, but I am actually advancing into the Russian Empire, so sympathy is a little weird. But never mind that; I want to set out how europe could be shared: you can have the Balkans, the eastern and central regions of the North European Plains, Finland and Scandinavia while I have Iceland, Italy, Denmark and everything else west of your proposed borders. As for the trade of commodities, I'm eager to get started.
Just to make a point, I am in fact supplying the PTC with oil and fueling their campaign in the east. By doing this with me, you are in fact increasing my export reserves, as I am no longer using oil against you in Europe and in the Middle East.
Now, let's look at the state of the world in 2037. PTC has taken a massive chunk out of the Russian Empire on the eastern front, whereby Russia may decide to counterattack. On it's western front, Russia has made significant progress into Europe, and with exception of the southern Balkans front has reached the borders proposed by Saudi Arabia. Through little fault of my own, Saudi Arabia has become the most polito-economically powerful nation in the world, which I can explain: I can choose to supply either Russia or the PTC with commodities, whereby that nation will become much more capable of winning the war. Currently, the PTC is being supplied, but I could always consider changing sides, whereby the advance into the Russian Empire would reverse.
Oh, and I've just heard the news about North Korea.
I see Afrikaa is slowly losing a war to the Arabian Nations.
THEY NEED A LEADER.
I'M JUST HERE FOR THE TYRANNY AND SANDWICHES. SIGN ME UP.
The PTC marches on all Europa Leauge lands outside Europe. Also, getting Russians all the way into Tokyo and blowing up nukes? I don't think so. Also, The_Undying, I realize that you have a large bit of influence, but Russia still has more oil.
As for North Korea, I am still waiting to find out if anything will actually be done to them.
It's losing oil as it loses territories. I'm an alternative source as I do still have large reserves of oil.
There's plenty of tyranny and sandwiches. Afrikaa is yours.
Under the command of it's new general, the Afrikaa faction successfully halts the advance of Saudi Arabia.
Having its previous ruler assasinated europa turns to a military dictator. Following this change in leadership they immediately begin a campaign to retake France, Spain and Germany.
Wow...Europa got beat...and so did Afrikka....
I was hoping for political stability between Europa and the NAU, in order to re-institute NATO, but this is fine, too.
I suggest renaming the KSA because it has such vast territory....
I ask that Europa surrenders and has Great Britan annexed by the NAU, as well as Iceland. You have a week to compy to these terms, or risk losing to the KSA or Russia. Your choice...
-Political Noob (Bush) (Obama)
Military dictatorship, military junta or stratocracy? These days you just can't decide.
Hmm... the Empire of Saudi Arabia. Not yet...
If Europa falls, we can democratize the nation. IF it falls, of course.
Europe has a new leader. As our ill luck would have it, the man is a military genius.
Against the odds, both the Europa League and Afrikaa have reversed the offensive. *stands up from his desk, then takes out the nearest wall with a grenade in stress* Oh well, at least we can start direct trade with the neighbouring EAU (sorry I couldn't do this earlier - bloody pirates were raiding my ships).
Where is Varsi? He has the ability to turn this whole thing around.
As PTC forces on the Russian front contiue to march all thye way to Scadinavia, a mass carpet bombing campaign levels Iceland and the British Isles, leaving them completely uninhabited. Work begins on a massive island fortress, to protect from the advance of the Europa leauge.
do you really think im stupid enough to attack the largest alliance on the planet with only england france and half of germany?
Well, Europe has ceased activity now that critical assets have been exterminated.
No, I don't. And you don't actually have England. What will you do now?
Was that really necessary? As to reitterate what I said before, I am hoping political stability between our old friends and the NAU, in order to annex it. You destroyed land that we wanted. I'm not about to make war with new allies, but when it comes to the conflict in the West, I suggest that you do not interfere. I have agreed that all land taken from Russia by PTC forces be given to you, the least you can do is leave Europa to me. I love their beer....
As for the Uninhabitable Iceland and Britian, efforts are underway to scrub the radiation out of the lands and ot re-fertilize their soil. Again, I ask that Europa may join us in the re-established NATO.
-noob
Ooh, ooh, can I join? Without going into too much detail, I'm sure we can forget the terrorist incidents against the old USA. Now that Europa has stopped it's war, I need multi-lateral aid to counter and hopefully reverse the Afrikaa advance.
Doom Bringer, I'm sure we can make you leader of a democratized Europa League, but only if you surrender. Maybe the same plan could be applied to Russia.
I havent stopped my attacks just iterating that im not going to attack japan and NAU being the weakest force on the planet. also I dont see him making any usage of nukes just provided me with one exploded bombshell per square foot of iceland and britain. I will consider joining NATO at some point soon.
Radiation? What radiation? We didn't use nukes, just good old fashioned WW2 style carpet bombing. You can live there if you want.
As for The_Undying, I would be glad to let you join our allaince.
*EAU forces strke deep into Russian territory, coming to within 100 miles of Moscow.*
If Europa is willing to join NATO, Europa can invade Moscow as well as the EAU. Then we shall see where diplomacy goes from there...
I'm handing Europe back to the Europa League, hopefully without any economic reprocussions. I'm also encouraging the EL to reclaim it's territories from the Russian Empire and to re-colonise the British Isles and Iceland. Whichever form of government the EL follows, it's now allied, so a re-colonisation would be OK. I'm also thinking how to share the Russian Empire mutually between NATO members, how to oppose Afrikaa on a joint front, and how to approach the Russian territories in the south-eastern Arabian Peninsula.
well im still not sure why my bomb shelters didnt work but ill take those zones back and continue my invasion of russia
We need a name for the alliance of the Europa Leauge, the EAU, the NAU, and the KSA. I propose the One World Alliance.
*EAU and EL forces begin crushing the rest of the contenintal Russian Empire.*
Today, we stand a world United. Humanity, after so many years of conflict, finally sets aside differences, and comes closer together in unionship. Yes...The One World Allience will do. Now, we end a bloody chapter in the history of humanity, and usher in a new era in history.
