Who threw anything away, really? Tell me at what point that I completely disregarded your advice.

I planned to build like ten, but your arguments made my wish list shortened to 4. I still want those planes.

Which is precisely our point. Farengeto said having more than one would be expensive, impractical and would do nothing to accomplish the goal of facilitating trade. You in turn decided you want the planes regardless and will buy them, even if they have no use in any realistic roleplay.

Roleplay as you want, but please be upfront about it. Claiming you are being realistic and reasonable when you clearly are not is a waste our your and our time.

Bottom Line

Already have one
Wanted to make four
asks Logic Police
Suddenly wanted 10
facts thrown by Far had reduced it back to four
Would take advice and use commercial planes to facilitate trade
the four is for stationary assets
Appreciated the suggestion that I shouldn't make four, but I'd like to make four nonetheless for assets.
People say I didn't listen anything
I say that without you guys, I'd want made 10. But you made me realise that commercial alternatives are cheaper and much better

Look I listen to the suggestion, which is why I changed the numbers. But please respect my decision when I want to make four for assets.

There I'm upfront. I want 4 of those planes for assets, but I'll still take in Far's opinions and use commercial airlines as the primary for my air trade. If you guys didn't tell me about these facts, I would use the Antonov-255 as primary trading vehicles, which I have realised hours ago from the facts tabled in this thread.

There, done.

Most honoured and venerable Logic Police, I'm having some difficulty in coming up with a reasonable GDP for my nation, mainly because I am really not an expert in any of this stuff. I have tried looking at nations I think might be similar, but it's so hard to judge similarity from the information available, especially when I don't have all night to research it (which is practically what I did last night anyway...)

So, here's the info I have so far:

Area: 87,510 km^2 (Plot #094)
Population (2016 census): 6,344,475
Population Density: 72.5/km^2 (higher than the similarly sized, but mostly flat Serbia, but lower than the other similarly-sized nation I could find, Azerbaijan, which is actually more mountainous, but I suspect more urbanised also).
The landscape appears to be mostly tropical rainforest (almost certainly reduced to plains in large areas) and volcanic mountainsides. As a small nation in such a landscape and with a clear risk of natural disasters, I don't expect their GDP to be enormous.
My ideas for nominal GDP per capita have been anywhere between about $5,000 to $20,000, but I'm just not sure what's reasonable and what the consequences for my roleplaying might be.

Please, can you help?

Wikipedia can provide some hints, check it out if you haven't so far: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_co...per_capita. According to the list, the range $5,000 to $20,000 would give you a wide array of different nations. Some are economical powerhouses, while others are less blessed with economical wealth. What kind of nation is Erinor? Does it have an extensive social welfare programme and a high standard of living in general? If it does, even $20,000 might be a little low. Also, note how different the numbers are depending on who calculated them.

In our RP, hard numbers are seldom used. It's more about what your national leaders say and do. Of course you'd need something to back them up, but you can gain significant influence from just having Yena Yamera-Hyudo saying the "right thing" Tounge

Many nations involved in our RP have rather high GDP's, with an average of around $850.000 billion, I think (according to the most recent numbers I've seen). Mine (Sedunn's) is $874.471 billion (or $55,683 per capita), which is quite high for such a small nation. I like to think of Sedunn as a trade hub with a high-tech industry (like the Netherlands for example). (Remember also how much the numbers differ depending on organisation.)

I'm not sure this is very helpful, but I hope there is something you can use Smile

You're right for the most part, but you're off by a few orders of magnitude there I think. (Unless Sedunn has a population of 16.) Tounge
