Nations
There are multiple different nations represented in the world of Victory Belles. Soon after the beginning of the game, you'll be ask to choose a Nation and one of the Belles available to help you get started.
Choosing a nation is definitive and cannot be changed later. Choosing a nation will change things in how you interact with the game. Every Belle from that nation will take 10% less vestures to rescue, and you'll be added to that Nation and that Nation alliance leaderboard for the rest of the game.
Here are the different nations available in the game.
America[edit | edit source]
The beating heart of the New World, and the great industrial colossus of the new age. The United States was late into the first World War, proposed the League of Nations but refused to join, and - still crawling out from the debris of the Great Depression - is hesitant to fall into the politics and conflicts of the old, decadent European powers.
But America no longer has the option of abstaining. Her reach extends from the mainland to Hawaii, to Alaska, to Panama, to the Philippines - and there are new enemies coming to threaten all of it.

United Kingdom[edit | edit source]
There's no question that the first World War was hard, and neither was the aftermath easy - the British Empire saw the loss of Ireland. The Great Depression. Strikes and uncertainties and hunger.
But, for all that, the sun is not setting on the British Empire. From Canada to South Africa to east Africa to India to the British Isles themselves there's still a common vision - or at least a single king.
With all that territory, and with perhaps the greatest navy the world has ever seen, there are privileges and there are responsibilities. This new war will smash against the limits of both.

France[edit | edit source]
The Third French Republic holds a colonial empire that stretches from the Caribbean to West Africa to Indochina - but the First World War and the Great Depression left deep scars at home. After years of recession and strikes and socialist governments grappling with ultra-nationalist trends at home and among her neighbors, the average French citizen probably hopped for nothing more from 1939 than peace and a return to normalcy.
But it was not to be....

Germany[edit | edit source]
From the first World War to the humiliating Treaty of Versailles to the catastrophe of the Great Depression, the twentieth century has not been kind to Germany. In the turmoil, Adolf Hitler's National Socialist Party twisted the mechanisms of government to its own ends. The Third Reich now seeks the natural expansion it feels it was denied by its rivals, and has annexed or seized most of German-speaking Europe. It shows no signs of slowing down - and the first dark hints of its plans for the people it considers undesirable are already evident - but to the average German, this is a time of triumph and renewal.
Or it was. Until the new war.

Italy[edit | edit source]
Still feeling the scars of the first World War and alarmed by the rise of Soviet Communism in the east, in 1922 King Victor Emmanuele III of Italy turned control of the state over to Benito Mussolini's National Fascist Party - and this sparked decades of political domination at home and conquest abroad, from the Balkans to East Africa. Now allied with Germany and Japan, Fascist Italy dreams of a new age of empires - and woe to whoever objects.
Even if they aren't human.

Japan[edit | edit source]
A hundred years ago, the Empire of Japan was isolated and inward-looking - and then Western powers kicked in their door, and they realized they would either have to modernize or to become accustomed to subservience.
They made their choice.
A modern, militarized Japan seized control of Taiwan, Korea, and the nearest chunk of the Sakhalin archipelago - and now Manchuria. They mean to keep Asia in Asian hands, beating foreign imperialists - and Morganas - at their own game.

Soviet Union[edit | edit source]
The people of the Russian Empire ended centuries of tsarist misrule and abuse in bloody revolution - and in 1922 they set about turning that revolution into a utopia. It would be an example for all the world, and the cornerstone of a global society that would recognize the dignity of the masses and ensure equality and justice for everyone who lived in its embrace.
But they have enemies on all sides who mean to see them fail. Or worse....
