Valkyria Chronicles: Drums of War
It is the year 1900, and stormclouds are gathering. Thirty years ago, the Atlantic Federation formed in response to the conquest of the Nord Republic by the Three Emperors League, later reformed into the East Europan Imperial Alliance. Today, tensions along the borders are running high, in the last five years there has been an average of over one major incident a year. Shots fired in Afrique, a Vinland merchantman seized by Imperial coast guards in the Pacific, a world hurtling towards a conflict that in many ways seems inevitable. The question is less if, and more when the armies of east and west Europa will clash, and how the war will be waged when they do.
State Selection
[ ] United Kingdom of Edinburgh
The strong right arm of the Federation, the United Kingdom of Edinburgh has oft been described as a land of shopkeepers and merchants, safe across the channel and often far from Europan concerns. But it is also the seat of a global empire, the place where the treaties that bind the federation together were signed, and the home of some of the worlds most cutting edge development.
Walls of Oak: The Edinburgh navy has a tradition of being second to none, and while that is fading in the modern day, it has not faded yet. The navy, is a significant source of pride for the people and government of Edinburgh, and its upkeep is a requirement for any economic leader.
The Sun Never Sets: The flag of Edinburgh flies in the sun, no matter the time of day, due to a vast network of colonies. While few are particularly profitable, they are both a great source of wealth, and a great vulnerability for the Kingdom.
[ ] United States of Vinland
Vinland has always seen itself as a frontier, as separate from Europan affairs, and as a place of endless possibilities and limitless ambition. With many who could not find a home in Europa leaving to pass through the golden gates of Vinland, the country has quickly sprawled across much of a continent. While it has fallen far short of its ideals, and has an often fractious internal political sphere, it, more than any other nation in the Federation has the potential to upend the balance of power.
Far from the Front: The United States of Vinland, more than any other power in the Atlantic Federation, is insulated from the horrors and strains of the war. While other nations may fear Imperial incursions and coastal raids, the USV is distant, protected by oceans to both its east and west.
Budding Powerhouse: The USV has recently made the transition from being a debtor nation to a creditor nation, and has begun fully exploiting its natural resources. Steel, coal, ragnite, and a thousand other products flow into and out of its factories. While not as developed in many ways as Europa, it has the most growth potential of any nation in the Atlantic Federation.
[ ] Revolutionary Republic of Valois
Valois often considers itself the birthplace of Freedom. When Vinland rebelled, it was based on ideas penned by writers from Valois. And, for much of the last century, it has been on the front lines of a struggle between liberation and reaction. Today however, it stands side by side with others who will not see a government of the people, by the people, and for the people be stricken from this world.
Revolutionary State: The time of monarchs is over, the dusk of oligarchs has come. Citizens, rise up and take what is yours! The Republic of Valois has cast off the shackles of Monarchy, and has fought for its freedom time and time again. The people are no strangers to privation and deprivation, and will continue to fight, as they have for much of the last century.
Economically Limited: Valois has often been the battlefield of Europa as it is today. While it has allies now, Valois's ability to fund military, scientific, and economic development is dramatically limited, and with war on the horizon, you must perform economic miracles on a regular basis.
A/N: I am very much stuck with Mechanist Quest, don't want to run Sequelquest with things as unsettled as they are (and I have made sure that there is an out of country backup of all of my notes and plans, just in case) So have this. Not sure how long I will manage to keep with it, but as the fox likes to say, fuckit we ball. Take two hours to discuss, and I will call the vote tomorrow.
