I am still very interested in sorting this out, however, due to GCSE Exams being about a month away, I have little time to contribute to the discussion. I will speak with Kidding when I can, but that has yet to happen, alas.
Keep it up while I'm gone :)
Archegnumans speak a tongue called Archegnu, which is a largely unique language which takes some inspiration from Finnish. There are a number of English loanwords - and even some Japanese examples, such as the Archegnu word 'sepuku' (meaning 'suicide') stemming from the Japanese 'seppuku'...
I fear that I may have been AFK at the time :/
For several hours. I was gardening.
I'll periodically check the IRC from now on, in the hope of catching you. Then we can finally get this history sorted!
Great work, McMasterdonia!
I noticed this:
The name should be 'Boraea', the northernmost province of Archegnum in modern day. Just to let you know.
Once I have discussed certain key issues with YrKidding, I can complete Archegnum's timeline for the later stages of the Kianese Empire. Things...
Kidding and I are going to have a chat on the IRC at some point, to work a few things out about our respective histories and how they are linked.
A quick question though - from what year are dates recorded? Or is there no official 'year 0' as of yet?
Should I be getting involved in this, seeing as Archegnum is geographically close to McMasterdonia and has strong cultural and familial ties to the McMasterdonian Royal Family? Not necessarily direct military involvement, but receiving refugees, providing asylum for dissenters from the...
Hmm, this is difficult for me. On one hand, Archegnum has long cultural and familial ties to McMasterdonia. On the other hand, religion is extremely important to the Archegnuman people. However, as the Flemingovians seem to be extremists in this case, I feel that Archegnum should support the...
A declaration from Mr Nutius Lympne, chief envoy to the Council
The government of the Archiepelagian Kingdom of Archegnum has discussed this matter in great detail over the past few days. I have been given authority to inform the members of the Council of Archlancer that Archegnum will agree to...
I was surprised to see myself on a couple of peoples' lists. Am I really up there with some of the more powerful nations? I know I have a relatively large military, economy(ish) and soft power rating, but it's not like I've rped that much on here.
@Yrkidding, though McMasterdonia should probably read this too.
I see your point. We need to intertwine our nations' history as much as possible, to make it realistic, which obviously involves older political entities :)
For the following timeline (breakup of the last Archipelagian Kingdom to...
A. these are the five (5) most politically influential nations in the The North Pacific
1. McMasterdonia
2. Syrixia
3. Nierr
4. Gustlantis
5. The Archlancer Pact (small international agreement, jointly projects diplomatic power and all that...)
B. these are the five (5) most militarily powerful...
This is my current idea of what the political situation of the Archegnuman Archipelago looked like just before McMasterdonia started interfering in the region. Basically, a load of squabbling successor states left after the collapse of the previous Archipelagian Kingdom, just waiting to be taken...
I like this idea. But one thing I must insist on - it be ethnically and culturally Archegnuman. But as my history seems to be similar to yours: i.e. various smaller political entities unifying (although Archegnum has been unified before, which I don't think the Lancerian Empire has. I could be...
Thank you :)
Earlier the better, I think. The nature of the physical geography of TNP makes it likely that colonisation could occur earlier than in our world by virtue of the shallow bodies of water dividing each micro-continent, as I like to call them. If we're talking about the year 1050 as...
Definitely interested. This sounds like a great idea.
So we discussed in PMs and stuff - should McMasterdonia still establish its first contact/trading posts in what will subsequently become Archegnum in the 1500s? I think that would give the Empire a good deal of time to evolve its...
Took it from Tolkein's God-figure, Eru Iluvatar. I don't think I knew there was an 'Eluvatar' when I decided upon the name, but it stuck and I like it :)
It's not intended to have anything to do with Eluvatar, basically. Just coincidence I guess.
TO: The Members of the Waterways Coalition
FROM: Nutius Lympne, Archegnuman Envoy to the Waterways Coalition and upcoming Envoy to the Archlancer Pact
This is a short message to confirm that His Imperial Majesty's Government in Parliament has indeed closed the South Archlancer Strait to...
