Your country violated
  1. Don't overwrite someone else's history. Try and keep things somewhat logical. If someone says they are, for example, the last of the independent native american tribes, don't make your own that contradicts it. However, don't write history that completely limits other people's ability to post. Saying you are the largest nation on earth isn't allowed, since that limits the rest of the countries' sizes.
Thus it is ignored.

Official Name: Vulkanküstenrepublik
Commonly Used Name(s): Republic of the Volcano Coast, Frisian Mexico
Government Type: Republic Dictatorship
Current Ruling Party (if applicable):
Capital: Schlackenmünde (310.000)
Head of State: Präsidentin Nele Vingen
Cultures: Frisian 43%, other "German" 32%, native and American minorities
Languages: Frisian, German
Religions: Catholic 82%
Population: 3,4 Mio.
Founding Date: 1956 independence day
Date of Max Extent: today
Location: Baja California
Brief History:

The last remnant of Frisian "Mexico" stretching from the Gulf to the Pacific Ocean the Vulkanküste became independent after the rest of "Mexico" due to the settlement of Frisian population. At long last Frisia simply liberated the Colony by force in 1956 and ignored it henceforth and thus nobody really cared about the father of the current president Malte Vingen taking power in 1962.

Living mostly off tourism and agriculture Vulkanküste is in a shadow war between the presidential guards, some socialist groups and the mafia cosortium "Sonnenhof" which controls half the event and tourism industry. Following that Vulkanküste sports the highest crime rate in the Americas and domestic violence is a daily problem.
 
Claiming what remains of England, if no one has current claims on it (noticed a lot of older claims that were never used).

Official Name: Free State of St. Sebastian
Commonly Used Name(s): North Mexico, Monterrey, St. Sebastian
Government Type: Democratic Republic
Current Ruling Party (if applicable): Conservatives
Capital: St. Sebastian (Monterrey)
Head of State: Prime Minister Gaius Hilo
Cultures: Latin/Greek 23%, Frisian 8%, 69%Natives and other
Languages: 38% Latin/Greek, 30% Frisian 20% Native and other
Religions: Catholic 95%, other 5%
Population: 31 Million
Founding Date: 1970
Date of Max Extent: today
Location: Northern Mexico
Brief History:
The last of the colonial territories added by the Christian Empire. It was taken from a former colonial territory of Frisia, which had been overthrown by the natives. Emperor Joseph X, a colonialist, took advantage and conquered it for the Empire. The last colony to be held by the Empire, and in 1970 Emperor Joseph XII released them, the last added and the last to go. They peacefully established a democracy, and tried to remain "under the radar" to avoid the attention of other nations. A modest nation, it wants to be left alone, if possible with the neighbors it has.

What part of England not claimed? There is already a kingdom in the white zone. Wales, Scotland and Ireland are also taken. Its not easy to see, but there is already a country(that I made).

Population: 31 Million
Founding Date: 1900
Date of Max Extent: today
Location: Northern Mexico
Brief History:
The last of the colonial territories added by the Christian Empire, conquered in 1699, by this point not many people from the Empire moved to settle. Relatively stable and a quiet region, in 1900 the Christian Empire granted freedom to it, it being the last colonial territory. A democracy was formed, and it kept ties with its former master, who provides economic and military support when need be. They are wary of their neighbors, but like their creators, have a very defensive attitude, and have tried to remain out of their neighbors potential zones of conquest. A modestly decent country.

((Will add more details later))

Please note that Vulkanküste is the remnant of a Frisian Mexico than once stretched from the Gulf to the Pacific Ocean thus you should respect and integrate that history else your nation is not viable as the history of the neighbors is to incorporared according to the rules.

This is a bit unrealistic, but I like the Basque flag, so you do you.

I get it, I have 2000 years worth of black holes.

Ok fine, I missed that. Could you give me more details on the Frisian colony? I'll change population, language history etc. I just need to know more because there is little what I got from your current details.

Once a Frisian Mexico. Unknown date when this ended. Then:

What does this even mean? Just the peninsula? Liberate from what? Did the colony fall apart?

Here is my proposal to straighten things out: In 1835 the Christian Empire conquered most of the Frisian colony of Mexico, which you can make a start date for. In 1956 the Frisians liberated the peninsula.

I apologize for missing it the first time, and will work out my history as soon as you explain this. I'm not trying to trample your history, its just I don't have enough info to go off of so its like navigating muddy water.
 
It was the remaining part and they did not want the colony any more so they just threw them out. The rest of the colony was likely established the same century like Argentina and expanded from that. I guess it was subject to native uprising and thus fell apart a century after until only Vulkan remained. And having a colony on the west coast when you are a country on the North Sea is useless if you think about it.
 
"The last of the colonial territories added by the Christian Empire. It was taken from a former colonial territory of Frisia, which had been overthrown by the natives.

Does that work?
 
Think so though no idea how you would actually conquer a country that geographically bad to reach and supply.

I don't believe the GM ruled that it broke any rules, nor are you the GM. This is why I had said that you're trying to act as though you're in control when you're not, you're not the GM, this isn't your decision.

I think you forget the Christian Empire is the major naval power in the world and has been since they began colonizing. They had trade routes around Africa(the Benin Colony), and through the straits of Gibraltar. But its fine;).

Well the gamers aside from you decided that and ignored your country. Guess what happens then.

No, you're not the GM, and there was no such 'gamer decision,' in fact only two people have officially recognized it, as I don't think Ironhide even realized what happened on the map.

So why don't you act mature and either accept that I legally claimed the land and made a nation or go to the GM and make an appeal? Oh, perhaps you already expect that he'll deny your request and that's why you're negating his authority? Or maybe you're just negating his authority for the sake of it?

Learn to show some respect, there is a GM and if you have a problem with my nation you go to him. You've disrespected not only me, but him and his position.
