Proxian Empire Posted May 22, 2009 Report Share Posted May 22, 2009 If I remember correctly, this was the last World Map that was made before I took control of the project. Good times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haflinger Posted May 22, 2009 Report Share Posted May 22, 2009 We weren't and Sparta hadn't even been founded yet if I'm judging the time accurately. OIN isn't there either. But they were never that big. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fallen Fool Posted May 22, 2009 Report Share Posted May 22, 2009 heh...GUARD was tinyalthough I think things would have been awfully interesting if NPO hadn't rolled ONOS when they did. With the break of WUT it probably would have become quite big (if not necessarily militarily capable) GUARD already had ONOS/NADC/SPARTA, and just prior to its dismantle VE had applied, which would have made 4 of the sanctioned alliances (keep in mind GPA/GOLD/IRON weren't in blocks) NPO was definitely strategic back then if nothing else I don't honestly think GUARD would've survived long enough to become really big after the fall of WUT heh.

Besides which, Sparta joined after ONOS was attacked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebel Virginia Posted May 22, 2009 Report Share Posted May 22, 2009 I feel so old...Also, who was in the NDF, wasnt it the Maroon bloc? Northern Defense Front. Was a bloc led by NoR, which included MDC, FCO (I think), UGO, and several others, such as OIN. Basically any smallish alliance, regardless of world opinions and aims was let in. When GWII came around, they all wanted to go to one side or another, so they fell apart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponken Posted May 22, 2009 Report Share Posted May 22, 2009 Yeah it is pre-GWII Because it's GATO who has Scandinavia and we in TOP demanded that in the peace process after GWII. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Striderwanabe Posted May 22, 2009 Report Share Posted May 22, 2009 I laughed when I saw NDF on that map, what a long time ago that was. The NDF existed in December of 2006, so those who put the date of this map as right before GWII are correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomInterrupt Posted May 22, 2009 Report Share Posted May 22, 2009 OIN isn't there either. But they were never that big. OIN was old but never managed to actually matter. Either in politics or NS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haflinger Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 OIN was old but never managed to actually matter. Either in politics or NS. Considering where Sparta is today, I disagree. They may not have mattered themselves but look what came from them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mixoux Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 (edited) Their 'importance' was essentially the alliances that split from them and ended up growing in size quite fast. Like Sparta. edit: And if I recall correctly, NADC? Though I could be wrong. Edited May 23, 2009 by Mixoux Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homura Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 This is from around when I started. I always wondered why everyone made New Pacific Order in the United States and not in the various lands around the Pacific Ocean, which would seem a more fitting place.

Proxian Empire Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 Considering where Sparta is today, I disagree. They may not have mattered themselves but look what came from them. Sparta is not OIN. Much of Sparta's success is also thanks to the movie 300. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like Sparta.edit: And if I recall correctly, NADC? Though I could be wrong. Yeah, NADC did split off of OIN. However, OIN itself was failtastic. All the leaders of quality ended up leaving rather than making a real effort to improve OIN. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mussolandia Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 This is from around when I started. I always wondered why everyone made New Pacific Order in the United States and not in the various lands around the Pacific Ocean, which would seem a more fitting place. One would think it was because prior to the Great Patriotic War, the NPO offered a good parallel with the United States. Powerful, assertive, preferring unilateralism to multilateralism, uneasy alliances, etc. It was twice as large and twice as strong as the next alliance and it had an aura of invincibility. The main difference, I believe, was cultural. The NPO has always been conceived as totalitarian. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
