Sorry about that, I'm kinda busy with my own RP and I can't think of anything since Germany is gone and Italy's not responding.

So...move that piece to my remaining yellow territory and yeah that's all, I wait for the next game to begin.

The fall of the Ottoman Empire was not with a bang but a whimper. :(
