Celtic/Roman Earth

(Formerly known as Rome Republic 2)

By Stephen Voss

 

Imperial Roman Earth II is actually on Celtic Earth which should be henceforth known as CELTIC-ROMAN Earth. Imperial Roman Earth II on Celtic Earth controls Southern Europe and Eastern Europe and Africa and the Middle East as well as South America . The Celts control Germanic Areas, Scandinavia, the (British OTL) Isles , Ireland, Greenland, Iceland, and the Eastern half of North America from the Borders of the Mayan Federation to the Arctic circle and west to the Mississippi and Missouri Rivers.

The Celts and Romans have been at Peace for roughly 5 centuries since Celtic longboats discovered North America. The Slow boats and the lack of motorizations means settlement is slow, unlike settlers from other timelines, the Romans who went to South America were much cleaner and did not have many diseases.

Celtic-Roman:

Official Status: CoC-ITA protectorate (The ITA keeps intrusive influences off the world with the help of on the ground Marketplace Traders)

governmental descriptions

Celtic Federation: A loose confederation of Celtic and native tribes. Many small towns, almost "suburban" in many areas

Head of State: Queen of the Celts

Head of Government: The first Counselor

Type of Government: a confederation with a Constitutional monarchy , most power in regional authorities elected by freeholders.

Roman Republic:

Head of State and Government: Proconsul

Type of Government: Federation,most power belongs to the governors.

China: Empire of China

Type of Government: centralized imperial but benign for now. They are not conquerors but will move into unclaimed territory

What the ITA knows and the Celts do not, is that the Chinese hold the Western Portions of North America and Australia . CoC reps believe the Celts and the Chinese will meet within the next year or two.

What the Chinese government doesn't know is that the Chinese in Western America will probably welcome the Celts and be amazed at freedom that the Celts have. These are prosperous people.
