Pretty good, population is on target, I think your air force is pretty high for being non existing though, because the Aeroplane hasn't been invented yet, and the only sort of aircraft a country might have would be a few airships, probably not many more than a few dozen. Also your fleet numbers around 340, but if you want the exact number or what ships you have exactly, go to Navypedia.org, real good site.

Good, seems to me there is a lot of rebuilding the militaries, fine by me but watch out, this rp will be historically accurate so your neighbors will take notice, NPC or PC. And it will have an effect on your nations as a whole.


Now that your CS is ready feel free to post a turn, remember, you got until Saturday 8AM EST to post a turn.

Population: 2.542.316


Capital: Caracas


Nation Information:





The territory currently known as Venezuela was colonized by Spain in 1522 amid resistance from indigenous peoples. In 1811, it became one of the first Spanish-American colonies to declare independence, which was not securely established until 1821, when Venezuela was a department of the federal republic of Gran Colombia. It gained full independence as a separate country in 1830. During the 19th century, Venezuela suffered political turmoil and autocracy, remaining dominated by regional caudillos (military strongmen) until the mid-20th century. The colors of the Venezuelan flag are yellow, blue, and red: the yellow stands for land wealth, the blue for the sea that separates Venezuela from Spain, and the red for the blood shed by the heroes of independence. In 1899, Cipriano Castro, assisted by his friend Juan Vicente Gómez, seized power in Caracas, marching an army from his base in the Andean state of Táchira.

Name of Country:





Empire of Japan


Government Type:





Officially, the government of the Empire of Japan is a constitutional monarchy. It consist of a Parliament which makes legislation and carries out administrative duties for the whole country. The Parliament consist of an upper and a lower house. Members of the upper house consist of members of the royal family and people appointed by the Emperor of Japan. Member of the lower house are elected to their respective positions. However, only people age 25 and older can be elected and only if they pay a certain amount in taxes. They can also be dismissed from their position at any time by the Emperor.


The Emperor of Japan acts as the head of state and exercises executive powers in government. While the Prime Minister of Japan acts as the head of government, he is ultimately subordinate to the Emperor himself. While most of the political power lies in the Parliament, the Emperor can use his executive authority to exercise power over Parliament. The Emperors status within Japanese culture ensures that where ever the Emperor wishes to go, the rest of the country will follow. The constitution of the Empire of Japan even asserts that Sovereignty lies within the Emperor, not Japan.

Nation Information:





Japan has recently come out of its self imposed isolation. In 1850, United States Navy Commodore Mathew Perry forced open Japan doors introducing it to the world. Japan then underwent a rapid industrialization and westernization process that saw Japan emerge as a potential world power. With the help of western countries, primarily Great Britain and Germany, Japan formed a modern Navy and Army. However, this process while rapid was also painful with Japan entering a series of civil wars that saw the old Samurai attempting to preserve the old traditions. However, Japan survived these civil wars and emerged strong and united under one central government. In 1894, Japan went to war with China and utterly defeated it signifying to the world that Japan was now the dominant Asian power. As a result, of this conflict, Japan gained a true empire gaining control over Formosa and exercising a great amount of influence over the Korean peninsula. As a result, nationalism, imperialism and militarism are high within the Japanese government and people as a whole. Japan while humbled by its supposed inferiority to the other European powers is eager to take what it sees as its rightful place among the world powers.

Name of Country: Ecuador


Government Type: Constitutional Republic



Military Size: 5,000 Infantry, 2,000 Cavalry, 15-20 Cannons, 1,500 Engineers



Population: 1,271,000



Capital: Quito



Nation Information: Ecuador is currently ruled by Eloy Alfaro, former Dictator of Ecuador turned President. Peace has reigned for several decades, yet the threat of the Peruvians is still a present one. Ecuador has never been a stable nation, it's gone through six different heads of state in the past decade. It's population and army are both quite small when compared to their neighbors, yet Ecuadorians are stubborn and will fight to the death defending the country so many before them died for. Maybe this is the century in which Ecuador's reign will no longer be questioned, when it rids the world of its enemies and lives up to the place in the world that is their birth right.

After the Fourth Anglo-Mysore war and the deposition of Mysore's then Monarch Tipu Sultan , The south eastern Kingdom of Mysore was transformed into a Princely state and the 5 year old scion of the ancient Wodeyar family , Krishnaraja III, was installed on the throne. The British from then on would take complete control over Mysore's foreign policy and also collected an annual tribute towards the British treasury from Mysore.



Despite all of this Mysore's Monarchs were given a high status under the British Raj and were entitled to a 21 gun salute whenever they entered Calcutta or were greeted by the viceroy , the gun salute not only meant greater prestige for the monarchs but it were also a measure of autonomy with the highest i.e 21 signifying the highest level of autonomy.



By the 1900's Mysore had already become one off the most powerful of the Princely states so much so that it was described by many as India's first modern state , the greatness of Mysore culminated in the reign of Maharaja Sri Krishnaraja Wadiyar IV now just a boy ascending to the throne after a 14 year regency , little did this boy know that his actions would soon have him described by Gandhi as a "saintly king" ... Who knows this boy might even stand to pose a threat to the British Crown , i guess we will just have to wait and find out.

Name of Country: Ecuador
Government Type: Constitutional Republic



Military Size: 5,000 Infantry, 2,000 Cavalry, 15-20 Cannons, 1,500 Engineers



Population: 1,271,000



Capital: Quito



Nation Information: Ecuador is currently ruled by Eloy Alfaro, former Dictator of Ecuador turned President. Peace has reigned for several decades, yet the threat of the Peruvians is still a present one. Ecuador has never been a stable nation, it's gone through six different heads of state in the past decade. It's population and army are both quite small when compared to their neighbors, yet Ecuadorians are stubborn and will fight to the death defending the country so many before them died for. Maybe this is the century in which Ecuador's reign will no longer be questioned, when it rids the world of its enemies and lives up to the place in the world that is their birth right.

Both accepted, good job
 
Since it has been a week, and the player who reserved the United States of America has not posted a CS or turn by now, the United States of America is now open to be chosen as a nation. But if you have already made a CS and it has been accepted, you cannot switch to the USA now.
