While we have no dates for FGW, this seems a bit early to me.

Let's not try to emulate real world with everything FGW doesn't have to be WWI

I may be wrong, but I was under the impression it was 1912-17: http://iiwiki.com/wiki/First_Great_War_(Esquarium)

Nobody really even knows what happened in FGW, it's in nobody's canon so changing it wouldn't really matter.

Hi. Do the nations here use mustard gas against dissidents?

In Nidzeslavia, we prefer using white phosphorus.

My nation's history really needs some sort of FGW too, but ideally I'd prefer it to have occurred in the 1910s.

Should we take a vote on it or something?

The later part of the 1910's works great for me. I gots me a dee-pression during that time due to exports being reduced because of the war. Too lazy to retcon.

If it was in the earlier part of the decade, it would be a perfect impetus for the revolution in Michillies and the overthrow of the monarchy. Catastrophic Michillian losses in the war compounding hunger and political repression would be the perfect recipe for a p*ssed population.

You can't have that. You're Esquarium's Russia, not Esquarium's Canada. :p

In all seriousness, though, ASQ maybe?

I am thinking either ASQ or not!ISIS. I may make it ambiguous, so a Muslim Tuhaoese may be responsible and it muddles things...

If the Great War indeed took place in the mid-1910s, can we at least have a smaller confict in NW Esquarium sometime around 1900?

Where exactly? On Nordania?

Yes, and possibly around the Northern Sea.

Nevanmaa could try to interfere somewhere for some reason, or something like that.

Sounds like a good idea to me. I need to flesh out my nation and history anyway.

1) Welcome to Esquarium, sir.
2) The proper way to put a claim on the map is outline your claims neatly, then put the name of your nation(s) on the map, then send it to Ainin for approval.
3) It may be in yer best interest to not use l33tsp33k 'round these parts, because it reminds some of us of Ol' Maryginia. ;) Seriously, though, refusal to use proper English may result in you being not being relevant.
