My brain is slightly torn

Naizerre only emerged from a tribal bush war in the last decade or so, I'd imagine some part of the defeated warlord's forces would've fled across the border and Naizerre would definitely be concerned if that state started to stir things up.
 
Do you even need a state? You could make it a criminal organization, like SPECTRE from James Bond.

Gotcha. Would there be an armed intervention from Naizerre? Because Terrorstan (obviously the name is to be changed, but I need good suggestions) has maybe 40 million people in a densely-packed area, and about 150,000+ terrorist soldiers controlling a majority of the land while the government and rebels still squabble. I'd like it to be an evenly-matched fight at the least, no obliterated-in-one-second 100-1 stuff; I want these to last some time to commit their atrocities.

Not for this, I want an actual insurgency that the world can deal with. The secret organisation-esque thing is in another RP idea of mine, with the Despotoan Disciples, who have a name change to the Neo-Aterkom Union. They are going to hijack a space probe launch, fit it with nuclear waste for a dirty bomb, and use the other rockets in the facility to make more, to threaten the world. because world domination and villain reasons, etc.
 
Well, you could put it up in that area right up above Galacta. That would also make terror attacks in Nebula make much more sense.

As for a name, we could just find a city in Syria and name it after that. That way no one can really get that offended over it.

(you have no idea how hard it was for me to not accidentally type Syrixia instead of Syria lol)

Nah. To be honest, I had always imagined it in the West; years of meddling could have given it a hatred for the East, etc. like Syria and stuff. I don't know; it just seems more fitting there.

It could go out by Myroria, then.

Something like this? Because I want it to have a good coastline, but not be on a peninsula. Maybe the border with Myroria could be extended?

Yes, that was the original idea for a shape. Like how Sierra/True Sebland wanted a nation shaped like Kazakhstan, or how (so long ago) Yayness wanted a nation shaped like Iran. It's just a general overview of what it could look like; the shape's not to stay. It's an insert of how a real-life nation would compare to the placement.
 
If located next to Myroria, the All-House Union would probably lock down that border and institute draconian anti-refugee measures at home very quickly; they might even send in some forces to occupy and "demilitarize" a zone nearest the border.

Ilamzat is a far-leftist Flemingovian nation and would probably declare open season on any rightist Flemingovian groups causing a ruckus nearby, if the proposed nation is to border it instead. Imagine Rojava and the YPG, but more Leninist and Maoist in ideological terms.

Patriarch Gunrei would also probably excommunicate and condemn any group opposing his mandate as divinely-appointed ruler of all Flemingovians across the world, but McM and I would have to work out what the situation is currently regarding the quagmire over there.
 
Naizerre would probably attempt to work in tandem with Myroria and others to safe house its borders and direct refugees elsewhere - there's enough people to feed within its borders already - but if it came to a direct conflict it could probably hold its own. Naizerre's military is made up largely of former bush war era militiamen so it's experienced, if slightly smaller than the army of its neighbour.

Oh, oh well. I was looking for a corrupt nation to border, so the group can get its funds. I'm now considering it to be placed near Galacta, as Nebula suggested. Just got to hope Yeraennus doesn't destroy the group. Editing this post to come up with a potential map.

Oh, we also still need a name; terrorstan is only temporary.

Tiamat? Or one of the Babylonian gods.
 
I'm wondering how Sasten could fit into this, since I do need somewhere to start RP'ing. We're a very large country with the capacity to take mass quantities of refugees and a culture that hugely supports doing so. I'm also working the angle of having a reputation as one of the most heathenish countries on Eras.
 
Yeraennus:
Did I hear something about a Terrorist Group? :evil:

Why yes you did. I'm planning on getting the country with the insurgency to border Galacta and Yeraennus. Map is coming soon.
 
oi m8 i fout u wod be of help le oil-smuggling terrorists. easy deal, cheap oil for glorious weapons. yeraennus stronk wit oil.

In all seriousness, you're a crime syndicate nation. We need money, so we smuggle oil out. You buy it cheap, sell it in for better prices. You provide weapons, we get stronger, get more oil. We even won't bomb your Ko'lon.
 
I'm pretty sure I've null-canoned that. It was a silly concept. We're just a simple military oligarchy bud.

damn it. This group needs allies, more than just Galacta. C'mon, I'm sure we can work something out. If you and everyone else went to war, troops on the ground, this RP would be over in about 10 minutes and nothing would have happened. If we can get an ally to border, buy our oil, give us weapons, then this group has a chance. I don't want this to be over quickly; this needs to have some substance.
 
Continuing on, here's a list of what I will need:

A name for the nation and terrorist group
A location
Other geography (land shape, areas in control of groups)
Groups willing to trade with terrorist group in nearby nation (e.g. corrupt government, criminal gangs/cartels) (this will affect the location)
Nations willing to get involved, and potentially be struck by terrorist atrocities

If you have any ideas for any of these, then please do reply to the thread.

Galactan terrorists
Pelforan Christian terrorist groups: Empire of Almighty God, Templar Army, and Christian Pelhafor Liberation Army.
Ceretian

Sierra (bombing of airport)
Nebula (sarin (?) attack on train/subway/metro)

 
Add the Empire of Almighty God, Templar Army, and Christian Pelhafor Liberation Army as Pelhaforan Christian terrorist groups trading with FSIS.
 
Our international organized crime syndicate would probably be willing to work/trade with them in some manner. (Think Yakuza.)
 
Updated the list. Also, would any of you like for a bombing, or hostage-taking, to occur in their nation?
Additionally, I am considering to move the nation to border Kannex and Nierr. I'm assuming Nierr is unstable because of "recent" RPs, and it could be an area for oil smuggling and weapons trade, and it has extra support from the Pelhaforan groups operating in the mainland of the nation. Finally, it could also lead to a near failure of the subway attacks in Nebula, and the subsequent tightening of naval laws. I'm going to wait for Kannex to have their expansion added before making a map, however.

But I have no choice but to invade it if things get messy...

Why not place it near Pelhafor?

Near to Tajis? Because they'd certainly have secret dealings with any insurgence type groups. Though I think Bootsie put in a claim for that whole area over there.
 
If it's not bordering Ilamzat, Ilamzat won't send its own forces in, but it will fund and weaponize any left-wing rebels in the country. If it's not bordering Myroria, Myroria will not care about the situation at all unless the Novrith Pact finds some reason to get involved.

Gunrei and the Patriarchate would only aid the rebels if they swear fealty to him as the one true spiritual leader of all Flemingovians.
 
Note on insurgencies: they are NOT short. Throw as many tanks and troops as you want into a territory. Bomb the tar out of them, until even the rubble has been pulverized into gravel. Finish the invasion in 36 hours or 36 weeks. It's not important. As long as the ideology and supply of arms and manpower is there, they can keep fighting with guerilla tactics and terrorism for years on end. Think about it: Afghanistan was invaded in 2001, Iraq was invaded in 2003. Both of those countries have religious extremist insurgencies ongoing to this day. A lot of this can be attributed to the absolute shitshow that was the democratization and international efforts, but the point still stands that even with a military occupation, insurgents can fight on for a very, very long time.

With that out of the way, placing Terrorstan south of Nierr and east of Kannex is of significant interest to me. Significantly, it would likely mean having the place border my own map claim. For reference, Sasten is only slightly smaller than Kannex (population-wise), is extremely militarized, and is irreligious to the point that irreligion is nearly a religion in and of itself. In other words, we are one of the most heathen chunks of dirt on Eras. That puts a great big bullseye on me. It also gives me a convenient reason to invade. Between two military superpowers, the invasion itself would be over in a matter of days, but fighting the insurgency could be the interesting bit, as would the diplomatic effects of possibly splitting the captured territory between myself and Kannex. If this is the place for it, then consider me thoroughly interested in this RP.

Think 1991 Soviet Union, only without the total and complete collapse of Nebula. I've been thinking that it's time to take Nebula in a different direction, and this gives me a really great opportunity to do so- the changes within the country won't be quite as big, but it will hopefully make everyone else see us in a better light.
