Sorlovia has a new flag. What do you all think? I changed the colours and added the koshak-miur pattern to make it look more Russian-esk.
Esthmark and Cottony
Xallóŭ! If you'd like to see what's been going on in the region, might be good to read some of the recent news posts in our Nordic Lands News post.

We hope to see you around!
We will read it!
Dear, Aettland
Sorlovia supports your expansion!
If you need an ally don't be afraid to check out Sorlovia. We're in the process of recruiting allies and members for the NSEA. Esthmark is our most significant ally at the moment.
>Sorik triggered
>Bienvia gains 5% liberty desire
What are you on about Esthmark? Both of those countries are Sorlovian allies. Bienvia is a Sorlovian territory and Sorik is a nation with whom Sorlovia is friendly, but who hasn't yet accepted the invite to join the NSEA. We want you Sorik, the invitation still stands.
P.S Bienvia has liberty. It is a semi-autonomous region under Sorlovian authority. We don't restrict the freedoms of the Bienvian people. We just keep their nation from turning into a war-torn failed state. Bienvians and Sorlovians have been kin since the stone age.
It's an EU4 joke
Esthmark and Cottony
Yeah, only a select amount of people will get that. To be honest looking at how Sorlovia got so many rebels i wouldn't be surprised if Bienvia wasn't at 100% and have the Baltic Alliance or CPH supporting independence.
Sorlovia doesn't have any political rebels. Just formerly pissed off citizens who ousted the former President to bring about a change in government. So no, Sorlovia doesn't have any true rebels. In the sense that you think about the Syrian rebels for example.
Copenhagen and the Baltic Alliance will have no say in Bienvia's future. It is a dependent state that relies on Sorlovia and as such will remain close to Sorlovia. It cannot survive on its own and has a strong anti-Baltican feeling.
Sorlovia is politically stable. It hasn't seen armed resistance to a government since the counter-revolution against the Perestroya Union. But its citizens are prepared to protest against what they see as an oppressive government. I think you misunderstand my friend, rebels are a thing of the past in Sorlovia.
...unless you count Viktor and his trio of drunken crap-talkers. But they're just life-long drinkers who like to mouth off against anything and everything under the sun.
Quickfire poll:
Civ vs EU: which is better?
(as far as I understand they're both the same type of game)
Sorlovia and Cottony
I will have to abstain seeing as I've never played either. But your responses might convince me to try one out.
Kopyk and Cottony
Well, i haven't played Civ, so I'll go with EU4.
What do you think about HOI4 Vulkanas?
Ehh, not really. They are both strategy games, but they are quite different. Civ is a turn based game, and is kind of like a board game in that all of its maps are grids made of hexagonal tiles. It doesn't even try to be realistic, and you play from the dawn of civilisation until someone meets a win condition. EU on the other hand is slightly more akin to a "diplomacy simulator" - it's on a real map of the world with real provinces, and starts at specific dates which have a historically accurate set of countries. EU4 runs from 1444 to 1821 and you play as a nation, managing its economy, technology, diplomacy etc. While clearly a game, this is much more realistic than Civ.
Which is better? Tough question. I personally only own EU4 and Civ V (didn't play the earlier EU games, and Civ VI seems worse). To me, Civ is a more relaxed, laid back game. It's especially fun with friends in multiplayer, with banter and betrayal etc. So Civ is a fun, relaxed game to play with your friends. EU is more serious - you need to be committed and focused on the game in order to do well, as there is loads of micromanagement and intricate mechanics. EU4 is great to play alone in a long session, when you are focused on the game only. It can be really fun to take a small nation all the way to a superpower over the course of a game, but it's not so relaxing. EU multiplayer is tricky since it's all real-time strategy and there can be sync issues, but it's fun when it works. So I can't say which is better. I like both.
I don't have HOI4 yet, but I really want to get it. I've watched lots of games on Youtube, and it looks like a lot of fun. As always with Paradox games, the AI needs work and there will be infinite DLCs, but it seems really cool, especially the whole ideologies thing. You can be really silly and play as communist Switzerland or something. The frontlines seem excellent too. What impresses me the most though are some of the mods out there, especially Kaiserreich. In conclusion: don't have it, want it, looks cool.
Did I get my demographics update yet? I need stats every fortnight...
Personally, I prefer Paradox games over Civ, but that's more of a preference of genre over one actually being better than the other. Vulkanas already said it pretty well in that they're both pretty different but still good games in their own right.
Even Paradox games in themselves vary quite a bit, ranging from the relative simplicity of most of Paradox's newer games to the beasts that are HoI3 and Vicky2. If that's still not enough, there's games out there that make even those two seem like a child's toy, though they do tend to be on the pricier side due to a lack of demand. Choose your poison!
Vulkanas and Cottony
I'll choose the one Juliet drank.
Juliet never drank poison. She drank the potion that allowed her to fake her death, but it was Romeo who killed himself with poison at the end of the play, while Juliet killed herself with a dagger after seeing Romeo dead.
Sorlovia and Cottony
I always loved Shakespeare. The tragedy really was poignant. If only Romeo had wanted a little whiles longer to see if Juliet was truly dead.
