part 8- colonization for the nation
the year 1870 starts with the local german goverment in lagos justifying war against sokoto in attempt to increase the size of the german west africa
in june our brave explorers discover the source of the nile, that unfortunatly for the kaiser is named after the future grandmother of europe queen victoria of the united kingdom
in 1872 we defeat sokoto useing a revolutionary new weapon the machine gun, bismarck decides that this invention will help us subdue the natives in the interior of africa and decides that it's is time for africa to be german
the german colony of lagos is expanded north and east with the succesful colonization of the surronding area in 1872
after our succes it isant long before the other great powers join in, in 1873 great britain and italy start colonizeing
in 1873 kaiser-wilhelms land is proclaimed and a military base is built in port stanley. and the german goverment decides to support the krupp family
a huge rebellion begins in june as prussian, north german and bavarian natinalists rise up,
by 1875 britain and italy have completed their first colonies and spain has joined the scramble for africa. and in the mean time germany's empire continues to grow
and in the far east german has taken full control over borneo and papua new guinea
to prevent war a conference is called in berlin to try and stop the great powers from going to war over africa.
britain, portugal, spain, italy, the ottoman empire and france all attend the confrence. bismarck presents a proposed map for africa showing where every nation is aloud to colonize. us, britain and portugal are all satified with the map but the over nations are demanding more of africa. in the aftermath of the conference all nations begin colonizeing with even greater speed attempting to grab as much land as possible before someone else can.
after the failure of the conference to stabilize the situation there is the threat of another war in europe, but when will this war start? perhaps it will never start or maybe it will start tommorow, all we know is it's coming.
