Alternate History: A Brand New World

Description
Last updated: 8/5/2016

Share, rate... do all that junk.

This is a still heavily in progress mod and is completely unrealistic. It's pretty much a conglomeration of my comrade's suggestions and just things I thought would be interesting.The main purpose is to give players a chance to try and battle the greater powers of the world with the great nation of Djibouti under the leadership of CommissarBRO. Will you be able to spread Amusement Parks and Rollercoasters to the rest of the world? There are over 30 new countries to play with such as the Technocracy of Greenland, the Rifter's Union, the Empire of Texas, Ran Bai Rui Dynasty, Konigsreich and so on. Unit values will probably be adjusted as time goes on. The secondary purpose of the mod is to put more emphasis on smaller countries that have the ability to become just as powerful as the Great Powers in a setting that is all it's own.

The history of the world has changed rather thoroughly and as such I will summarize it briefly. The United States was weak after the Civil War so when fully armed rebellions broke out in California and Texas, the American populace still loyal to the Union was unwilling to fight another war that would cost the lives of possible millions. From the rebellions rose the great cattle lord, the "God-like" Emperor of Texas and a communist nation known as the Union of Socialist California. The American People also lost faith in the US's government so it was reformed into the Commonwealth of the States. The reformation has led to the creation of Desert, the Republic of Henvaru and the Democratic Republic of the Southern States.

In Europe, the Great Powers have not fared any better. A massive Catholic Uprising in Southern France led to the creation of the Huescotaine Collective. France's inability to quell the uprising inspired multiple countries across the world to rebel against French colonial efforts. Germany would take advantage of this weakness to invade the French Republic however, a coalition of Luxembourg-Belgium and paramilitary forces fought against German Aggression, ending the war. After Germany's failed invasion of France during the early 1900's, much of Europe has been rearranged. Luxembourg's attack on Germany's Army's rear forced an end to the war and allowed Luxembourg to annex the Rhineland, Alsace-Lorraine and the Palatinate from the Kaiser. The failure of Italy to assist Germany has led to a loss of influence and power to the Scilian Syndicate who has taken control of the southern lands of Italy. To make matters worse, the United Kingdom was unable to contain Irish nationalist sensations and due to popular opinion, pulled out of the Green Isle altogether. Now Ireland is locked in a state of anarchy.

In Asia and Africa, the colonized peoples realized the weakness of European Imperialism at this time and rebellions broke out across the world. These revolts led to the formation of the Rifter's Union, Djibouti, Somalia, Eritrea, Vietnam, the Phillipines and a host of other nations who successfully pushed off the ambitions of the Great Powers. This event would become known as, "The Great Spring."

Japan looking to increase it's sphere of influence, invaded Korea, intially occupying it. Unfortunately, Chinese-Russian intervention led to a disastrous defeat and full retreat from the mainland. The Republic of China, being the main contender against Japanese aggression, created a puppet state in the form of a newly liberated Korea. However, the Chinese people were stirring and open revolts began to spring up around the Middle Kingdom.
The Republic of China's corruption and inability to control it's domestic situation has led to the rise of a Communist China, the Ran Bai Rui Dynasty and the Fengtian State and also the loss of Korea as a puppet state. The failure of the Japanese Invasion also led to Hokkaido breaking off and forming a new nation between Karafuto and Hokkaido, known as the Hokkaido Union.

The world is barreling down a path of instability and war, so choose a side and conquer your neighbors. Become the new Great Power!

Update as of 9/29/15:
So I might've gotten a bit crazy with the scenario. At this point it's barely recognizable as there are well over 20 new additional countries with new resource locations, and new country descriptions. Some of the country descriptions have not been updated yet (Russia, Austro-Hungary etc) because I haven't done anything with them. A few *new* countries may have foreign armies in them, don't worry, within 4 turns the AI will return to it's own borders. Also, the end game is hilarious. Seriously, you'll be trying hard to contain ♥♥♥♥♥♥ off citizens with a lack of resources. Several of the regions are going to be impossible but for the best of players (Anarchy of Ireland, Realm of Mad Aga Scar). Good luck and feel free to post suggestions!

Update as of 12/12/2015:
Added more nations to play as. Play tests have shown that the game really hits an awesome stride about 250 turns in! Hope you guys enjoy!

Update as of 8/5/2016:
It's been a long time but I added more countries, balanced some more and reduced the tendency for rebels in a few countries. Populations have been tweaked in South America and I also adjusted a lot of
colors. Armies have also been drastically increased in American countries... this includes South America. I've also given a variety of countries more resources and more technologies to boost things along.

New Nations Add (In no particular order):
- The Tunisian State
- Republic of Henvaru
- Deseret
- Democratic Republic of Southern States
- Congo
- Kameroon
- Northern Nigeria
- Free Cities of West Africa
- Mauri Kingdom
- Gherensi Caliphate
- Libya
- Emirate of Yemeni-Chad
- Emirate of Abu Jakar
- Nizam Remnant
- Crimean Soviet Republic
- Kuban Socialist Republic
- Federation of New Transylvania
- The Empire of Texas
- The Alaskan Republic (Is actually a Fascist State)
- The Union of Socialist California
- Communist China
- Korea
- Hokkaido Union
- Phillipines
- New Nubian Kingdom
- Commissar's Djibouti
- Somalia
- Eritrea
- Rifter's Union
- Ran Bai Rui Dynasty
- Fengtian State
- Maures-Berber Federation
- Technocracy of Greenland
- Konigsreich
- Scilian Syndicate
- Emirate of Kudai
- Huescotaine Collective
- Realm of Mad Aga Scar
- Vietnam
- Kingdom of Buttery Bulgaria
- Quebec
- Viusain Empire
- Order of the Falklands
- Chilean Coast Free Cities
- Imperial Union of the Amazon
- Hindu Unitarian League
(I'm probably missing a few but you get the idea)

Countries that are now independent yet already existed
-Sultanate of Egypt
-Kashmir State
-Sultanate of Darfur
-Rajputana Agency


*As of now there have been no events added yet but the scenario is actually pretty interesting as is.I'm also taking suggestions for other epic countries to add into my scenario! My only requirement is it has to be 'relatively' unique or based on an actual country. No copyrighted fictional countries in other games/shows/books etc.

Hey new guy to modding on this game here, how do you even select a downloaded mod?
CivilReturn 9 Aug, 2017 @ 10:06am 
I think that Empire of Texas should renamed to Lone Star Empire

Thanks Spartan! Yes I'm aware of that particular glitch and tbh I think it's more of a glitch with the game than with this particular scenario. If I'm able to fix it in the future I absolutely will!

Thanks again for your kind words, I'm glad you enjoy the mod!

great - but i have one problem.. somalia is glitched
ive tried this on multiple cpus with multiple games put it seems like the troops in Adwal (in somalia) are always displayed in Saanag (also in somalia). it is a bit of a nuisance because it affects COMMISAR'S DJBOUTI!! but anyways, your mod is great. your a very talented youtuber & mod maker

Some suggestions for Russia, if you look back at the 1500's, there were many Horde states in Russia.

Mongolia could be buffed with loads of light cavalry

Could add Finland, Novgorod, and Belarus

Also consider Greater Finland, search it up on Wikipedia, you will see what I am talking about

If you don't want to weaken Russia much, then buff Mongolia, and add Greater Finland, as that wouldn't do much, but would at least weaken Russia slightly while making countries that can be fun to watch/play

This all meets your criteria for suggestions

Oh I honestly thought you wouldn't respond! Thanks, I really love this mod! ☺
CommissarBRO  [author] 26 Apr, 2016 @ 8:09am 
@Sebastian.malm0212 @eaglicker Both great ideas! I'll definitely make some improvements to the mod during this summer :)

1. Could you do something with Scandinavia?
2. Most new nations start with a 0 dollar treasury, can you fix that so you don't go into debt so immediately easily.
3. Give nes nations a navy. A European power like the Huescotaine Collective would probably have at least a few boats.

How about a country called The Commonwealth of Judea
or The Kingdom of Tibet, The Republic of Muscovy, The Confederation of Central America,The Free land of The Apache. If you put any of these into the mod I would be very greatfull
