Are you sure about the colonies? It's in 1910...
|
I'm trying my best, honestly. I would like to retain Norway for this RP though.
|
It's ok, just wondering. You could try to unify Scandinavia...;)
|
Yes, Norway would easy bend to my will, but the Swedish people's to the north hated the Danes, also, it would catch the attention of Russia. And I cannot take on Russia.
|
Everybody thought Japan couldn't take on Russia...
With help from other nations you can take on Russia, but she's modernizing fast. |
Denmark, England, Japan are ecceling in their ship building and are controlling the high seas. France and America are looking to expand further. Russian Navy is a joke. But, then again, the Danish Army is a joke, compared to their navy, which is one of the best in the world.
|
ok, this is wrong. I think you are looking at a map of Denmark from the 1700's or something - but at this point Denmark only controls itself, the Virgin Island, and Greenland.
Denmark never controlled Newfoundland, Sri Lanka or Nepal. Maybe a Danish person visited there once, but thats about it. |
