You could just call them "Foreign Devils" and use human wave attacks untill international pressure runs them out of your land...

With all of you being the international pressure, I'd have to wait until christmas and easter at on the same day ;-)

nah the human wave atacks were very efective a few years ago

Well, let us know when you're settled on a nation, and I'll start the task of setting you up.

Incidently - "SMS Viribus Unitis" is kinda long - what can we call you in casual conversation?

VU would be fine

I'll take Hindu India -  potentially large resource and population base, not surrounded by enemies and  didn't step on anyone's toes previously - that will be my job :-)

Thank you

"So let it be done."

The encyclopedia area is set up for you.  We'll have starting tech, economy, infrastructure, and military forces to you in a day or so.

If anybody's given or sold stuff to Bharat, kindly advise VU and the Mods.  It won't count against his starting totals, but he'll probably want to know about it.

Welcome! :)

Just a small piece of advice (and this goes for all new players): do not sign the first thing someone offers you. There seems like it is a tendency here for people to jump on new players with alliance offers and friendship treaties before the player in question really know what it is they are getting into.
So my advice to any new player is: Do not sign the first thing someone offers you, at least not without talking to other people in the region first. Because they might offer you a better deal as well as perhaps take offence by other things and connections. If taking sides, it should be by choice, not by accident.

It is much more status to shoot elephants while riding the tiger, at least as long as one do not spill the tea. ;)

Thats good advice...  where has that been happening if I may ask?  I don't always pay close attention to whats going on in the game.

Bharat has the treaty with Russia, concerning the lease of Coondapoor (Kondapura?).

1. Bharat transfers soveirnigty and usu fructu of Town of Kundapura and District (15 km radius) to Russian Empire for a period of 99 years;
2. Russia is free to develop and use said Territory as she sees fit, for civilian or military purposes, with any international obligations or other entanglements affecting Russia and the Territory not having any bearing on the position of Bharat;
3. the semi-annual fee for the territory is 1$;
4. the lease is conditional upon Russia investing 10$ per annum (in two tranches) into the Bharat economy. Any profts from this investment will be shared by the two Contracting Powers;
