[15:26] <Sjalhaven> an actual swilatia
[15:27] <Swilatia> yup. wanted to see if my nick was still registered.
[15:27] <Swilatia> It is not.
[15:28] <Swilatia> The NS nation of Swilatia is still nowhere to be seen, so don't go looking.

[15:54] <Vyvland> so Swilatia where is your nation going to be?
[15:55] <Swilatia> Wherever I find room for it.
[15:55] <Hippo> Wait, is it going to be Swilatia
[15:55] <Hippo> Or a whole new nation
[15:56] <Swilatia> Still got things to work out with some guys in other regions.
[15:57] <Swilatia> But I will be refounding Swilatia in the near future
[15:57] <Hippo> Do you intend to decrease your population?
[15:57] <Zieg> genocide
[15:57] <Zieg> !
[15:57] <Hippo> I don't think 1,2b pop is feasible anymore
[15:58] <Swilatia> Sure it is, we'll just build taller apartment blocks.
[15:58] <Vyvland> it is nice to see you back Swilatia
[15:58] <Sjalhaven> High numbers shall be crushed.
[15:58] <Vyvland> shame it was just after igle left
[15:59] <Hippo> I wonder how this will affect regional canon
[15:59] <Swilatia> Yeah, I heard about that. I never got his TG.
[16:00] <Zieg> another liberal democracy to hate
[16:00] <Zieg> on the long list
[16:00] <Zieg> battlestations could take longer to install
[16:00] <Zieg> fucking god damned asian internet
[16:00] <Hippo> Another republic to hate
[16:00] <Hippo> When will this republican nightmare end
[16:01] <Zieg> never
[16:01] <Swilatia> Also possibly two illiberal democracies.
[16:01] <Zieg> !!
[16:01] <Hippo> life in esquarium is hell
[16:02] <Hippo> we should build a massive wall around nevanmaa and turn the clocks back to the 18th century
[16:02] <Zieg> Reich will be declared an empire after ulrich dies
[16:02] <Zieg> succcess
[16:02] <Swilatia> Bulungi and Tropico... oops, I mean Bulundia and Wijaska.
[16:02] <Swilatia> Valeneska et al. aren't coming back.
[16:02] <Zieg> offices of fuehrer and chancellor becoming Empress of the Greater Reich
[16:02] <Hippo> Relations between Ziegenhain and Nevanmaa will skyrocket to new heights
[16:02] <Hippo> friends friends friends
[16:02] <Zieg> ulrich has to die first
[16:02] <Zieg> he's being quite stubborn about it
[16:03] <Zieg> mostly because i've been procrastinating about the article
[16:03] <Zieg> he was suppose to die like, 3 months ago
[16:05] <Luziyca> lol Hippo
[16:05] <Hippo> everything was so much better in the 17th century
[16:05] <Luziyca> But what about IRC?
[16:05] <Vyvland> hmm
[16:05] <Luziyca> And  Coca-Cola?
[16:05] <Hippo> then everything started going downhill
[16:06] <Hippo> nevanmaa never recovered from that shock
[16:06] <Vyvland> fucking industrial revolution ending extreme poverty and starvation in the western world
[16:06] <Vyvland> oh right in Nevanmaa
[16:06] <Swilatia> OK, I've brought my nation to Esquarium
[16:07] <Hippo> hooray
[16:07] <Hippo> since then all our attempts at modernization have been met with rage followed by returning to old ways
[16:07] <Luziyca> If you ever need a colonizer, Swilatia...
[16:07] <Luziyca> Hire us.
[16:07] <Luziyca> We have lots and lots of places where we did well
[16:08] <Luziyca> Like Kraq, Pavonistade, Kofeiya...
[16:08] <Hippo> >military attempts to modernize 19th century military tactics in the 1930s, camouflage and such
[16:08] <Hippo> >officer corps goes buttmad
[16:08] <Luziyca> Y'know, it'd be really easy to invade Nevanmaa
[16:08] <Hippo> >camouflage thrown in the garbage replaced by good old fashioned blue uniforms visible from 1000 miles away
[16:08] <Swilatia> Swilatia was never a colony of another nation.
[16:08] <Luziyca> Just use the latest tactics and mow the Nevan military down one by one
[16:08] <Luziyca> Swilatia: Thankfully :P
[16:09] <Vyvland> that is something I don't think is very realistic Hippo
[16:09] <Hippo> nowadays nevanmaa still uses relatively old-fashioned military tactics with modern weaponry
[16:09] <Hippo> Vyvland
[16:09] <Hippo> We don't actually use those blue uniforms in combat zones
[16:09] <Vyvland> oh good
[16:09] <Luziyca> Having 1.2 billion people and being developed is not realistic either
[16:09] <Luziyca> :P
[16:09] <Vyvland> I have made my second-largest city of 2 million people based off a Belgian town of 100,000
[16:09] <Sjalhaven> I say no to 1.2 billion
[16:09] <Sjalhaven> also 2 million people is too much !!!!!!!!!
[16:10] <Hippo> But our uniforms tend to be quite unpractical still, they're basically just the blue uniform with camouflage and extra pockets
[16:10] <Hippo> We also can't get rid of that helmet spike
[16:10] <Luziyca> Excellent
[16:10] <Luziyca> Vyvland: Let's invade Nevanmaa together
[16:10] <Luziyca> Install a new monarc
[16:10] <Luziyca> *monarch
[16:10] <Hippo> Because that would be like cutting off a soldier's penis! Shameful!
[16:10] <Hippo> I should really try and design a combat uniform for Nevanmaa
[16:10] <Luziyca> Those spikes are walking targets
[16:11] <Swilatia> Well, I still feel Swilatia should have more people than Namor, or at least Luziyca.
[16:11] <Swilatia> Having too many people is kind of our thing, after all.
[16:11] <Luziyca> Swilatia: More than Luziyca, certainly
[16:11] <Hippo> They're not that all Luziyca
[16:11] <Luziyca> Okay
[16:11] <Luziyca> I suggest 671,000,000
[16:11] <Sjalhaven> Because fuck the population cuts we managed to have
[16:11] <Luziyca> Ainin had that before he reduced his population :P
[16:11] <Hippo> Something like 600m seems reasonable to me Swialtia
[16:12] <Zieg> based MARPAT hippo
[16:12] <Zieg> based MARPAT
[16:12] <Luziyca> Amen
[16:12] <Swilatia> But I could probably work with 700 million. It would let me simplify my geography a bit.
[16:12] <Hippo> Nonsense, I will use this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M05
[16:12] <feepbot> The M05 family of military camouflage patterns are used by the Finnish Defence Forces on uniforms and other equipment. The pattern is licenced by the Finnish Defence Forces and it is not available to the public.
[16:12] <Sjalhaven> Note to myself: don't try to improve things next time
[16:13] <Zieg> M05 Boonie hat
[16:13] <Zieg> based boonie
[16:13] <Zieg> MARPAT still superior
[16:13] <Vyvland> [23:10] <Luziyca> Vyvland: Let's invade Nevanmaa together -- yes
[16:14] <Swilatia> I'd even have names for all 9 provinces... the CoA will still have 17 stars because I'm too lazy to change it.
[16:14] <Vyvland> we will mobilise our superb army
[16:14] <Vyvland> in fact we can probably just get away with mobilising one batallion of it
[16:14] <Luziyca> Swilatia: Maybe have the remaining stars symbolize all the provincial capitals except Vilvek?
[16:14]  * Zieg invades Luziyca
[16:14] <Zieg> !
[16:14] <Zieg> world war
[16:14] <Luziyca> Exactly, Vyvland
[16:14]  * Luziyca invades Nevanmaa
