The goal of the game is to conquer the entire map. This is done by taking over provinces using your resources. These provinces will in turn produce more resources for you.
Ordinary land provinces and sea areas cost 5 resources to take over and produce one resource each. Capital zones, which are marked by a grey border cost 25 resources to take over and produce 5 resources each.
However, if you are able to conquer an entire country as marked in the map, you will get an additional resource production for each zone. So if you have a country with 3 provinces and a capital, you will get 3 + 5 + 4 = 12 resources each turn instead of only 8.
Only areas bordering areas you already own can be taken over. These areas don't need to border your zones in the beginning of the turn, though. If you have enough areas you can take over a new zone and then take over a second zone which doesn't border any of your original provinces, but does border the new zone you've just taken over.
If you have resources remaining at the end of your turn, they get stored and carry over to the next.
To take over an area, just take the most recently posted map and colour in the area you want to take.
You don't need to declare war to take over another person's zones. If you have enough resources, you can just snatch them away. However, these zones will take more resources to take over.
Player owned land provinces will take 10 resources to take over instead of 5 and capitals take 50 resources to take over instead of 25. Furthermore, if the entire country is owned they will again cost twice as much to take over, provinces taking 20 and capitals 100 resources to take over. If a player owns an entire country and you want to take over multiple zones from that country in the same turn, only one will cost double to take over. So if you want to take over two ordinary provinces, you will only have to pay 30 resources seeing how after the first one he doesn't own the entire country anymore.
Player owned sea areas will always cost 20 resources to take over. This can not be raised in any way.
There are no alliances in the game either. It is every nation for itself. But it is possible to trade with any other player. Both resources and zones can be traded.
Resources take two turns to trade. If I have 10 resources remaining on turn 10, I can send it to another player. On turn 11 neither player has these resources, on turn 12 the resources arrive and the other player can immediately use them.
Zones are traded immediately and the other player gains its resources the next turn.
Every player starts with only a capital. If you want to join, simply pick any one capital city on the map that has not been claimed yet and claim it for yourself. If no more capitals are available, I'm afraid the game is full and you can't join anymore.
If you're eliminated from the game, you can join anew if there is still a capital free.
Aside from this capital, you don't start with anything. You have no initial resources or production other than the 5 resource production from your capital.

You can start as Portugal or Finland I guess or another unoccupied capital.

Jazz, you might also want to take over Cyprus. It is part of Turkey in this game.

Uh, Mymop, taking over those 19 land areas from me from 6 countries, as well as that one ocean area and that one neutral area costs you 275 resources while you have only 217 to spend.
19*10 (land areas) + 6*10 (additional cost of the first area in each new country) + 20 (ocean) + 5 (Letland area) = 275
And HB, you're right. There are apparently are still two parts of Iran there. Considering how small it is and how late in the game we are now, you can get the country production bonus from just those two areas without having to take over a capital.

Can you feel your heart burning?
Can you feel the struggle within?

This is the map with Mymop's illegal move invalidated. You can retake whatever areas you want.
So Mymop and myself still have our moves to make.
