(Personally, I'm glad it's modern, but that's just me. Oh, and we make more than one country? Sweet, I'll start on another later.)

Area: 3,166,414 square kilometers
Population: 398,325,000

History: Corbournne is often credited as the "birthplace of humanity." It has the earliest record of human life as we know it, and is thought to be the first civilization to live life much like we do today. The island of Corbournne was originally inhabited by three different tribes. One of Caucasian blood, one of Arab, and one of Asian. The Arab name for the island was Corbornia, and the Asian, Korbornea. Not long after the different groups became aware of each other, they decided to band together, and form a new nation. The French name was adopted, as they were the most populous ethnic group in the land, and the confederation became The Corbournnian League.
What I mean is, all those countries.. And that's just the start.. This seems like one of those roleplays that should have an entire forum of their own.. Not a two-thread (Sign-up and Roleplay thread) part of a forum like KMC..
Would morelike be needed following threads:
-Character BIO
-Discussion
-The World BIO (Countries)
-Rules and Guidelines
-History
-Roleplaying
---Country 1
---Country 2
---Country 3
---Etc. Etc.
And possibly a roleplaying thread in the different countries or even worlds if accessable..
You get my point?
Originally posted by MadMelTrue, but in an RP with major countries scattered over a planet, and only a few RPers, what will that turn out to be?
Everyone should be in a concentrated area. Perhaps those countries could stand as the homes of some of the players, or maybe destinations to travel to, but I defiantly think it's a bad idea to allow people to have their own countries.
Another factor is the point that everyone is making them to their own liking, with their own inhabitants.Every one will choose their own, and that will cause conflict. We have one thats Hispanic, one that is French. If I wanted to make a German based country where the other percent of population was Dutch, and DE wanted to make a Swedish based country where the rest where Arabs, We would all be spread apart, with nearly no means of communication. And unless the RP your planning will be based on the countries struggle for power, rather than actual character and storyline development, then I believe it's a bad idea to allow players to make there own countries.
If you feel it is player right to be able to create their countries, I might convey a suggestion as well. Maybe we could all be located in one country, where immigrants/refugees/runaways/escapes etc, tend to stay, and ( because everyone seems so steadfast on their individual Nations ) they could give a brief history or excerpt on their home lands.

IN the On thread and the other is the official game thread!
Yes, it might be huge but if this RP is going to be a good as ESB said, then be it. You see, the countries is just a start. And then we go with the history, and we go on and on with what is going on. And what you should be thinking about is the quality and how good it would be and if you would enjoy it.
