gopprogressive Posted April 12, 2009 Author Share Posted April 12, 2009 How about 'India' Heh. I don't want to do an RL Indian election as India has ridiculously complex politics and I don't feel like putting up 18 million parties and regions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matvail2002 Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 As you may know, there is right now a month-long election in India which will be largest democratic election ever made in history. Based, on many experts the turnout will be good, with appoximately 60% of the population who will vote. Maybe use some of the real life issue in this election for the Ayati scenario? The Economy and the economic crisis National unity and multiculturalism Relation with neighouring countries Terrorism 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patine Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 Will you have Ayati be divided into states and territories largely distinguished ethinically, like RW India, or a different regional scheme? I look forward to seeing this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I look forward to seeing this! Yes, several probably will have Telegu or Tamil as their main languages rather than Hindi. This won't be for at least a few months, not until I can finish the other major three that I'm working on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gopprogressive Posted May 6, 2009 Author Share Posted May 6, 2009 I'm thinking of combining this scenario to some degree with South Guanjin, considering Patine's plight. I'll jot down some notes later. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patine Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 I'd prefer if you didn't combine it with South Guanjin, as I planned a quite distinct set of circumtances and situations in that scenario, and I should be working on it soon. I could, however, include Ayatian Relations as an issue as a nod to this scenario. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matvail2002 Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 Just wondering, if South Guanjin is based on RL China, Taiwan or Singapore? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matvail2002 Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 Are they any North American or Oceanian nations for this micronational world except for Terre-Neuve? Maybe, I would be interested to work on these one if there is any. I maybe have two ideas: -Nouvelle-France (based on a Québec with Ontario map) with a political system close to Terre-Neuve. -Cascadia (based on the BC map and party system with Oregon and Washington attached with a strong Green Party). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocentia and Stormark are kinda North American. The former is a cross between Canada and Russia, but the latter is more Viking and Scandanavia-based (though I used the Canadian Maritimes as a map). Other than that, no. Though, I did like your Santos idea- so that will be coming up once I finish Astaria, Rocentia, and/or Ayati. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matvail2002 Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 Don't worry, Santos is the next one on my list! I will work on it as soon as I can decide myself on the map to choose! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
