Australia works out its fine and sends a ship around the world to find other people. However, they get drunk and the ship sinks.

Australia thinks that it was sunk by pirates around Iran and sends a warship (not godmoding, we probably have a warship at this point).

As reconstruction continues, Scouting Missions were began by the Alpine Government to survey Northern Italy, Germany and Provence. The First Mission was a huge success with finding survivors. Soon, Survivor Nations were found in Germany and France such as Prussia, Ansbach, Bavaria and Venetia. The First of these Survivor Nations to join the Alpine Confederation were Bavaria and Ansbach (however Bavaria was slightly violent against the Annexation). Soon, Venetia joined the Alpine Confederation to protect itself from the Growing Mafia State of Sicilly

After a few weeks, the Irani settlement had an influx of new settlers, up to 12,500 now lived there. It had become a town by this point, by the name of Huwhili. Huwhili's government turned this town into a self sufficient city-state. It conducted a military operation into Iran, and brought back 20 nuclear warheads, seemingly left behind by Americans and soviets. Minister Muhammed al-Zav knew these WMDs would critically skyrocket Huwhili's power, and thus he arranged for a team of 150 to get them operational and in a standby state. Meanwhile, he expanded the military to 200, the police to 250 and began a reform that would call for the training of 4000 into able militia.

The humble settlement had large ambitions, and no doubt the key was destroying Iran and conquering nearby, similar settlements.

The nation was officially called the New confederate States of America, but it was referred to as the Confederacy. centered around the South Eastern US, where the only major cities to be taken out were Atlanta, Charleston, Wilmington, Raleigh, and Charlotte. The region was largely intact, The government was trying to hold together the South East and praying that The US government still existed someplace, the government used the exact same system as the US, no laws changed, except for a draft being introduced. The nation was weak, money was scarce, and the influx of immigrants from the ravage areas of Texas and the North stretched the infrastructure to its limits.

The Co-operative Republic of Guyana changes it's name to the Amazon Republic. They use the fertile soil to grow rice and sugar. They build up a navy for trade and war using their native wood, and start equipping soldiers to prepare for battle against Venezuela. The under-trained army and navy invade Venezuela with 2500 soldiers and 100 vessels and they are victorious. Luis Herrera Campins is overthrown.

Ships are sent out to survey other nations in the area.

Suriname: Very few survivors. Hunter/Gatherer lifestyles.
French Guiana: Everything destroyed.
Colombia: Their government is about to collapse. Very little amount of agriculture.

The American government ran off to Guam. Of 270,000,000 citizens, only about 30,000,000 survived. 85% of American housing was destroyed. 90% of American infrastructure was destroyed. 95% of the army was destroyed. 75% of the air force was destroyed. The Navy remained largely intact, 25% destroyed. President Reagan orders that the borders be secured, and that America be rebuilt.

Reagan notes that all American cities of 250,000+ were destroyed.

You did not include Huwhili. They are situated in the northwestern mountains of Iran. Also, Iran is still a state according to host. You are all also ignoring the fact that there is *nuclear fallout*. We're in a period of mass hysteria, yet we act like the world is just carrying on. Only small settlements and towns can sustain, not full fledged nations.

With the collapse of most of the world's nations and the near collapse of many others. The Japanese government moves quickly to consolidate control over the surrounding areas of Tokyo(as Tokyo was fortunate enough to not be considered a high priority target of a nuclear strike) Abounding the rest of the nation to fight for survival.

The few available military divisions around Tokyo are immediately called into action to defend the governmental centers. The prime minister insists on remaining within Tokyo to act as a symbol of hope, however for his safety an evacuation plan is set up in case of the total collapse of the city.

Distribution stations have been set up to supply the citizens of Tokyo with the few consumable resources available, including bottled water, flashlights+batteries and face masks.

Dude it said nations were OK under some circumstances.
And the fallout just means more stuff for Gina Rinehart to dig up.

Yes, but high priority regions are basically being let loose. Spain should be vaporized except for the countryside and mountains.

The other big thing is that a lot of nations the host said are still running. I'm especially pissed how whats his name ignored how Iran is still up and running.

Nations that did get Nuked but had territory that didn't get nuked like UK, US or Japan survived. Nations that didn't get nuked survived but will either collapse due to Violence, Famine and Disease or Nuclear Fallout or get conquered

Yes, that's what I was expecting. Which is why I've made a much more accurate one here, with the rebirth of civilisation, and the only KNOWN civilisations listed on it. I'll try to update this map when a few changes occur. You'll notice not all borders are accurate, that is due to fallout.

Huwhili is landlocked and more towards the southeast, but good enough.

Thumbs up

Iran and UAE are still kicking though, and a few other African nations as far as the Eastern hemisphere goes.
