Hegemony

[Icuownage]

Me and Retech are proud to be begging for people to help us, we have no shame!

 

Trol I sent you a PM, infact no one barely ever replies to my PM's, it rather bugs me that I write out something and people choose to just ignore it.

The Councils of Oslo and Copenhagen have passed legislation that will seek to create a new language based on Old Norse. Schools will offer the language to students in order for them to choose it as a second or third language. The Commonwealth Parliament is due to vote on the same legislation, which seems likely to pass at the moment. The language course will also teach students how to write in the New Futhark alphabet.

 

(Although the video has Old English, it is still similar to Old Norse and sounds sort of like what the new language will sound like.)

(could have sworn that I posted this before <.< ) France gives free help to india, the united states and greece on their wonders.

Sorry, didn't see it. And ty :)

 

Weather Wonder: 1/15

 

Countries helping:

India

USNA

Argentina

Russia

Italy

Germany

Also, this is how I see the military disposition of the player countries (some aren't included):

[Retech]

That's a cool graph Dusty!

[Icuownage]

Theres no way Hex could afford that.

 

Sere accepted to help,

 

2/25!! That is still a while, need poseiden and doom to give me an answer, I might go ask Earth.

It never states that they are good soldiers...

[jasignhagj]

Id wager that my 500K could beat his 2m any day. considering his IAG is only 50 Bil larger than mine.

 

New Military budget proposal

 

Since military budget maintenance would be part of a country's budget, i say that we dont pay for military maintenance unless it is over 20% of our IAG (2% of our GDP, a low average for the world). If it's oveer, we pay the difference.

Retech, i send you a penny in funding for your wonder.

now, now, don't bash the spear. I heard it gets a 2x multiplier against extinct boars.

[Retech]

Green revolution: (2/13)

Sum paid: 500 billion

Countries helping:

Greece

India

Iran

Britannia

Argentina

Spain

Good point! The Tiberian regiments of the French army are now armed with spears!

[archimage_a]

Are they the Tiberian Regiments armed with Nod Rifles?

Are they, the Tiberian Regiments, armed with Nod Rifles?

Well I never said they were armed with just spears...

Project: Falstad's Process

Time: 15 years

Bonus: Allows for cheap and efficient production of hydrogen for fuel-cells. Reduces pollution.

Cost: 250 billion

Speeding up: There's no way that you can speed it up.

Notes: Everyone can take advantage of the benefits, but each individual person must do the research (15 years) and pay the 250 billion sum in order to obtain it.

 

 

The Commonwealth begins researching the Falstad's Process.

 

(This is not a wonder, but it is built around the same concept. This does not involve a "wonder race," and the benefits are open for anyone that completes the research on their own.)

[archimage_a]

Approved.

[Grim_]

France starts research upon Falstad's process. (This is relevant to my interests)

For the record, Hydrogen is still gonna cost more energy to create then it puts out in the form of fuel cells. It's just a way to transfer electricity. There is no way to get around this.

This is true, but we're making a special exception since this doesn't really offer a significant benefit.

 

It's more along the lines of saying, "I use hydrogen instead of oil. Boy, do I feel special!"

[archimage_a]

I was thinking of something like a waterwheel attached to a electrolysis system....Or similar. Storing the Kinentic energy of Water....

[Wisp]

Well, it would still maybe have like a 90% efficiency rate at best, so like if the waterwheel was putting out 50mwh or energy a day, it would put out 45 mwh stored in hydrogen.

[archimage_a]

Probably a lot less than that...15% probably.

The point is that you can store energy in a manner different to Electricity...so you can refill your tank in a few minutes, rather than plugging your car in overnight.

The other advantage that rather than:

You get:

 

And who doesn't want to see a Tank explode like a small atomic bomb?

[Nero]

As long as it's someone else's tank.

[Grim_]

I don't think it would be all that much worse than petrol (well I hope it would not be) anyways it will be useful for things other than tanks.

[The Dark Lord]

Indeed.

 

The Holy Imperial Order has deployed some of its members into the heart of Africa in order to "bring peace, Christ and enlightenment" to the peoples of the African continent. For areas in which villages are terrorized by insurgent groups such as the Lord's Resistance Army, some people associated with the Order will go and protect them. These men and women will be teachers and missionaries (among others) and they will bring Civilization and knowledge to whom they help.

 

With that said, the Holy Imperial Order has created the Knights of the Order. The Knights are trained gentlemen who have vowed allegiance to God and His Justice and will protect the villagers to the best of their ability. They are characterized by their midnight blue cloaks, which is situated over their white uniforms. Likewise, some armor (such as a bullet-proof vest) is contained underneath their uniforms. They each bear rings symbolizing the Order: a white shield overlaid with a red cross (like that of St. George, but more like a T with a circle overlapping the part of the intersection) with gilding around the shield and the cross. The insides of their rings (silver or stainless steel) contain a Bible verse. Every knight has his own personal sword, but his main weapon of defense is a pistol.

 

Iceland has its own Council now: the Council of Reykjavik.

[The_Mather1]

Italy, maybe, India, maybe, Japan, definitely not.

I'm a superpower and I have nukes, that's more than can be said about Italy.

 

Sere, what did you do to the Sami Parliament?
