All the others had seconds as well, you missed you second of the War of Progression by minutes! So, in fairness, Write in's will be manually counted. There were TONS of suggestions not included. I included the ones that were seconded.

Got ya, but I still think it’s slightly unorthodox.

Put one down for War of Progression.

The great leap forward is kinda cheezy because it doesn't contain a word denoting that it is a war
such as "campaign" or "war" itself. But it gets bland to name wars after the country that was attacked, a lot of wars seem to be named that. Vote W.O.N. !!! (after all we did)

After France falls, we can go after America. Once that happens, it won't matter one whit what the Americans call it. Those who control the present control the past.

Oh, and I'd support either "First Virgin War" or "War of American Liberation".

I prefer War of Necessity, we had no choice we had to go, the others can wait until we can create a crushing victory which would be even more impressive

I know what the A-NBC coverage would be called, COLLAPSE OF AMERICA: APOLYTON FRONT since this has been posted, take some time to respond to a question I have, in this forum is a civ community called apolyton, which apperantly is a democratic gov't with "real" partys and elections, how could i get more involved in the happenings of this "nation" like, for instance, how would one start a media corperation, or political party (Apolyton-NBC, and idea i had browsing around, possible media up-start ) any help appreciated

Well, where to start.

First of all welcome SN.

How to start? If you feel like starting from scratch, then it is basically posting your toughts on the party and hoping for people to join.

First, though, would be to take a look at existing parties.

This link has good party info

Now, as for a media outlet. Let me say, first of all, I could use some help with mine: The Jungle Gazette. Take a look at it, and if interested send me a Private Message. I will tell you how you can help. Starting up another? Just go for it. I will say it is alot of work, and likely too mch for one man.
