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 my advanced Replica just went crazy, we tried to steal it but we couldn't so, to gain its power we copied it using advanced Nanite Technology, but something went wrong.....
the palace was Vapourised we are now electing a new Leader
on the up side we now have a limitless source of energy draining the Energy from the rubble, some sort of strange Space-Time radiation from a higher Dimension.
so now all i need is to expand mining operations and i can start on Colonization phase 1 .... SEND OUT THE SURVEY/SPY DRONES!
i think he just hit a Y on the JDS scale.
Reacting to a massive hyperspatial distortion, OEM fleets led by the OEDN Mephisto, have entered orbit around an as yet unnamed planet harboring a class 1 civilization, and begun scanning for singularities and any other hyperspace distortion level events.
Levels of Civilization
Class 0: Have not utilized all energy their home planet puts out.
Class 1: Have harnessed all sources of energy their homeworld can sustain; have not harnesed the full energy of a solar system.
Class 2: Have harnessed the full power of their home solar system and possibly several others. This is most of the civilizations in the Milky Way galaxy.
Class 3: Have complete control over all energy output of an entire galaxy. this is the Ildiran empire.
Class 4: Have total control of the energy output of an entire universe. Assuming Earth-6 is still around somewhere, this is the Flaming Ninjas.
Absolutely not, the JSD was never meant at all to be a method of 'punishing' players. It's purely there as part of the storyline. The Timewights will instead ponder the origins of the replica.
well considering the Replica Deatomised itself, his imperial Majesy Emperor V'Tell and a large portion of the Beurocracy the Timewights have nothing to ponder, however due to the Mass death of the Beurocracy our government is now incredibly streamlined, now Red tape
survey drones have discovered a rich node of minerals in V'Tellath system on our border, we are dispatching a miner colony to the system, we are also accepting any volunteers into our Armed Forces as well as hiring any Mercenaries we can find, do to the large militaries of the neighbouring states.
Also we would like to ask the OEM not to station a fleet on the edge of our borders... and the near our main labratories on that planets moons, we ask you not to interfere with our research on this culture and on the Subspace anomilies present in this and the neighbouring systems as these have been claimed by our empire as forward industrial centres
by the way we seem to have lost Survey Drone 012678 in the vicinty of your fleet have you blasted it?
The forces of the Library continue onward, crushing Kyotian fleets and bombing the crusts of every planet they find into nothing, exposing their mantles. Every Kyotian they have come across has died. This march, however, is abruptly stalled with the arrival of a large Kyotian fleet at a planet called Norminal....
Samurye.
ive just realised i havent named my Faction....
erm....
i know!.... wait.... any ideas??
Ive got it!
The Vorian Confederacy!
or
The Anadile Hegemony
The Xin'Ta'Fax Imerium
I havent blasted it, and my fleets have moved on due to lack of anything interesting to find in your system. Provided mr. blunted and sybertronic are ok with it, I'd like to invite you to the alliance. Never know when you need some good corporate spies.
Undying, i never meant for it to be seen as a punishment, but more of a storyline thing. You know, new galactic empire attempts to replicate incredible timewight artifact sort of thing.
Okay.
1) your faction can take any name. Just look at my Fallout 3 themed name.
2) youre gonna have to explain your military prowess, govenrmental order style, and form of FTL. The current fastest form is Quasi-Space. This belongs to the Flaming Ninjas and Liberty Prime.
3) You can take the espionage theme but i have a hold on Cyberwarfare, and i can take your ships . Dont worry, ill be nice to you. The current Uber people are the Kyotians and the Flaming ninjas.
4) there will be no "I am god so you die" posts. we all have tried that in the past and it failed (we went 1000 years without FTL for instance) so if you plan to attack someone, you have to do it in more than 2 posts.
5) You cant go into getting godlike technology either. they have to be as "realistic" as possible. Otherwise you may run into the Flaming Ninja Space Inquisition
6) Other than that, you should know that we are at war with the Kyotian Empire, and that the CDS, Flaming Ninjas, OEM, and Liberty prime are allied. that is the basic story of this current RP.
Pick a name and have fun now!

Lately we have come into contact into a number of these probes. They all appear to come from the same place but for some reason, they always arrack our ships after making contact. While not a serious threat, they do prove to be a nuisance. We have sent a small battlegroup to the Circini star cluster. this area seems to be where the probes originated from. Along with the naval ships we have sent delegates in order to promote a civil first contact with the said species.
In addition to that, We have sent most of our forces to the Kyotian Front. Lately we have been seeing so much success that we have decided to forego full orbital bombardment for planetary occupation. One of our fleets will be nearby the Planet called Nominal. They will provide assistance to the Flaming Ninja armada there.
The central front has come into contact with an Illidrian stronghold at the planet called Majastra. We have opened trade relations and are providing support in their defense, even lending them ships. With this sucessful campaign we fully expect to have this war concluded by Year's end.
The Xin'Ta'Fax Imperium welcomes your offer of an alliance and we accept
our capital planet is actually a dual world, two planets orbiting each other, 1 a great City-World and the centre of our government, the other a farming world that sustained us after the Great Fall, when FTL was lost, although we where not as affected as the other Nations we still lost all of our Military knowledge, there is no poverty or inequality in my empire and we are rich, due to the massive armies warring on our doorstep we have intiated a vast militarisation of our forces, we have developed incredibly powerful sheilds capable of absorbing Enery weapons fire into the sheild strenghtening it and taking much energy from projectiles, we also have incredibly tough armor
but our weapons are incredibly weak and we can barely scratch the paint on a warships hull, we are willing to trade our Mark IV sheild Generator Protoypes in exchange for advanced weapons, our new Tua Epsilon Battleships currenly have the Mark IV sheilds and Armor and is incredbily fast and nimble.
.... there seems to be a malfunction with our probes, they have been recalled and reprogrammed, they where supposed to locate resource rich worlds for colonization, not attack Alien Armardas.
a warning however, do not atempt any other Entry into our space without permission, our people are wary of outsiders since the Great War a few hundred years back between our people and another race.... which is no all but extinct
to explain why my people are militaristcally retarded, my people , sickened by the horrors of the war, destroyed all of our warships and weapons research, the great leaps we are making in defense technology are from hiddedn labs we rediscovered but the purge on offensive tehnology was much more thourough and none survived
Defencive type intresting choice .And what is your race called?
Sybertronic.
someone has sabataged our Survey Probes! this is an act of aggression.... if we find out whose been messing with my survey Drones im going to make them deader than Sss'thbel Warlords that attacked us in the Great War
Remember we are also looking to increase the power of our weapons, if anyone in your Alliance can provide us with the schematics we can have our Warfleet entoute to Kyotian Territory by the end of the next Solar Cycle
our people are primarily traders... but we do dabble with spying.... and ship building once phase 2 of our colonisation program is complete we can triple the output of our factories, our Economy with quadruple and ship producuction will soar we could create a fleet to rival the Kyotians at the height of their power in less than a year!
we are also working on a way to nullify Hacking into our Primary systems , it is progressing but....
*Update*
we have jumped cloaked spy drones into the heart of the remaining Kyotonian territory.... something is going on, wait whats that?!?!? weve lost contact with Probe 1.... Probe 2.... Probes 3and 4 are down! and .... Probe 5's picked up a weird Energy reading.... weve lost contact with Probe 5 .... hmmmm
well as far as creating a large amount of ships, i also have that. My ships are mainly of a defensive purpose also with Strong weapons and hulls at the expense of sublight speed and shield strength. They have incredibly strong ECM units to both subvert enemy systems or completely neautralize it. Dont bother with your computer interface, we use the interconnecting pathways that all ships use to communicate with each other.
If you want we can exchange the schmetics of your Shield generators with our New Jumper missle systems. These missles automatically enter Quasi-Space for a limited time to bypass shields and ship hulls to hit critical systems. This is a relatively new weapons package that not even the Flaming ninjas have yet.
And if you dont want me in your space, say it nicely. Simple put, even your fancy shields are of little value against my Stellar Converters. Speaking of which, ive decided to put some into frontline service. We have begun work on another WMD called the Psionic Devestator. The details of that are still classified though.
Dont thank me, it was your idea
Oh really? I wouldn't be so sure of that....
