— Description of forming Kingdom of Thrace |
The Kingdom of Thrace was a formable of
Bulgaria located in Europe, consisting of
Bulgaria,
Greece, and
Macedonia. It is also known as "Thracia".
Background[]
Thrace is a geographical and historical region in Southeast Europe, now split among Bulgaria,
Greece, and
Turkey, which is bounded by the Balkan Mountains to the north, the Aegean Sea to the south, and the Black Sea to the east. It comprises southeastern
Bulgaria (Northern Thrace), northeastern
Greece (Western Thrace), and the European part of
Turkey (East Thrace). The region's boundaries are based on that of the Roman Province of Thrace; the lands inhabited by the ancient Thracians extended in the north to modern-day Northern
Bulgaria and
Romania and to the west into the region of
Macedonia.
Economy & Manpower[]
Thrace generates an income of ~$600,000-700,000 per 5 days, which can be further increased by developing cities or researching tax collection. Thrace also generates 919 manpower every 5 days, which can be additionally expanded by building Recruitment centers in cities.
Geography[]
Terrain[]
Thrace is mostly comprised with Hilly terrain, with the only exceptions involving land surrounding Athens, and southeastern Bulgaria.
Biome[]
The Kingdom has no permanent biome, while only experiencing Mild Winter in the northern half and central-east of Bulgaria spanning from December to January. Just like the rest of the formable, the Mild Winter is covered in normal biome for the rest of the year.
Borders[]
Thrace shares a border with Albania,
Romania,
Serbia and
Turkey. The Kingdom additionally borders the Black Sea east of the Bulgarian mainland, while the Greek mainland borders the Ionian Sea to the west, the Aegean Sea to the east, and the Libyan Sea to the south.
Due to the country owning the entirety of Greece and its numerous islands, it can defend its maritime borders more effectively than other countries of the same size, as long as a reasonable navy is built. In addition,
Greece's strategic position enables African Colonization (or Colonization in general for that matter).
Cities[]
Thrace has 51 cities, the most notable one being the capital of Sofia.
Resources[]
The Kingdom of Thrace produces 1 unit of aluminum, 6 units of copper, 1 unit of gold and 6 units of oil. The Kingdom typically imports other nation's resource possession to to continuously maintain factories.

Strategy[]
Ally Turkey, if they decline then ally the
United Kingdom or
Russia for potential protection. Building factories for tanks may also increase defensive measures. If
Turkey invades you, use your tanks to either invade or play defensive. After they are dealt with, take over
Macedonia first. If there is a player controlling
Greece, then invade them by using the remaining tanks. You can now form the Kingdom of Thrace!
