[forumgame] The New Era 2.0

((Yeah, we need to slow down the technological advancements, this game is getting too OP. IMHO, we should end with a huge war))

I would personally advise against a military breakdown of the world.

(( Well, no because I think the game will end when it ends. tech is tech so when tech is advanced we all advance that tech. Doesn't matter how fast we go. We will start creating new weapons that don't exist like Organic weapons.))

Panama releases an early concept drawing of space elevator when they were just beginning research.

The Japanese Islands have been studied for over ten to fifteen years watching how the islands reformed. The islands are now just lush meadows and mountains with lots of wild life. Italia thinks that making the Japanese islands a new Anglendia frontier is an order. Italia invites France, the U.K., and other Anglendia states to colonize the Japanese Islands. Italia is working on making a huge port city where the moon bay is to increase traffic to the islands. The city will be completed in 13 years.

Italia completes work on satellites that will be sent to the U.K. space station. The old satellite is be decommissioned after many years of service. The new main satellite is called 'Dawn Star'. The other four are called, 'Nightmare', 'Eclipse', 'New Day', and 'Cyber Storm'. Work on the BISTUR is completed and it now has a docking bay for space ships and a probe/ satellite bay for launching satellites and probes out to orbit. Satellites are launched in 2 years.

Italia continues work on the Titan Space Station for travel to and from Pluto and other planets. Project said to be completed within 5 years.
Titan colonization is going well but slow. Italia reveals that we have been working on Space Ships that specialize in transporting people to outer space. There are 10 space ships in total. Will be launched after more cities on Titan are prepared. (6 years)

Italia *secretly* says to France and the U.K. that the five satellites are not only satellites, but a weapon (details will be told later when public is notified) The five satellites are meant to protect Earth from invaders (ALIENS)

The UK sends its first ship of people to the Japanese islands. The UK suggests we fully integrate the islands as a part of Anglendia.
The UK invites Sweden to join Anglendia.
BITUAR moves its location from Central London to the Isle Of Man, where it begins researching the way Panama's early space elevators are built in the hopes of building their own Space Elevators.
The uses of the UK space elevators:

1. To form Space Holiday Resorts.
2. Easy ways to get to these resorts.
3. To transport soldiers into the sky, where they will keep watch over the UK's skies incase of attack.
4. Locate Asteroids on a collision course with Earth faster and to destroy them more efficiently.
5. To offer quicker transport between Anglendian States.
6. Incase of a nuclear winter/apocalypse/whatever in Anglendian States, civilians and politicians will be evac'd to the Space Stations to carry on Anglendian life and their great grandchildren will live on the Earth.

If somebody would kindly upload the updated map of Anglendia onto imgur for me, that'd be great. Can't do it myself because sky is being a stupid piece of crap today and uploading/streaming something crashes it >.>

Italia thinks it is the best decision to claim the Islands for Anglendia.
Italia sends scientists to the Island of Man to help in the building of space elevators.

(( Italia can once Australia (British colony!!!) is added to the Anglendia area.))

The UK activates blackout mode and will not be available until (hopefully) 8 o'clock GMT.

((Wasn't sure when Australia gained independance, but i'm sure mba would like Australia being added to Anglendia ))

YEAH!!! Australia is still part of the commonwealth. The multiple times we have tried to become a republic all failed

Japan decides hat the world has become too technologically advanced. It activates its time machine and returns the entire world to 1950. However, there is a problem and the world becomes frozen at 1950. Whenever a "year" passes, the year 1950 simply restarts.
(There. Fixed it)

Panama is the first to report to the world that Japan is in a time freeze and thinks it is permanently in the year 1950.

Panama releases early brainstorming artwork regarding beam power transmission, drawn by Nicola Tesla himself.

No, it happened to the entire world. Everyone was saying it should be stuck in 1950. Now we are.

Panama reject's Japan's attempt at God Mode.

I'm not god moding- everyone thought everyone was OP and suggested we go back to 1950.

Panama locks down its borders and blocks all communication with any but USD with which it has a military alliance.
