I just created a new nation. It's called the United Kingdom of Fonidia and Osteyon. Can someone send me the password so I can join to your region? I'll post my info when I get to be in the region
EDIT: I'm in, I'll put my info on another post.

Oh I'm still playing. I suppose the Federal Republic of Okurka would be about as big as the Czech Republic. That's what I've been modeling its history and culture after.

The Treacherous Dictatorship of Fegelein Hermanny is the size of Nazi Germany in 1945 nearing its downfall. Neighbors could be any other nations that bear similarity to or are based off European countries.

"The United Kingdom of Fonidia and Osteyon"
Size: Sightly larger than Great Britain.
Neighbours: Fonidia and Osteyon is an island country, near the coasts of Zootopolis (lol Zootopolis is now a boundary whore - no offence).
History: The island was once divided in two countries; the Kingdom of Fonidia and the Kingdom of Osteyon. Fonidia was engaging in a war with a lot of other countries because a Zootopolian guy was killed in Fonidian lands, and you know that Zootopolis has a bunch of neighbours. The King was an idiot, and he was the only leader of the country, as it was an absolute monarchy. Fonidia pledged Osteyon for help, but the Osteyonese Prime Minister told to the King that Osteyon would only help them if the King created a parliament. The King agreed and Osteyon helped using diplomacy and treaties instead of guns and explosives, and the war ended, but Fonidia was extremely damaged and lacked funds. The Osteyonese government felt empathy, and asked to their neighbours if they wanted to join to unite the kingdoms. The Fonidians happily joined, and to decide which country would go first in the new name, a paper-rock-scissors game was played and Fonidia won it, so the official name became "The United Kingdom of Fonidia and Osteyon", but population frequently only uses the name of the country they used to belong, and when they refer to the whole island, they call it "Ostidia".


As you noticed, I'm really into doing this kind of stories
BTW: I don't want to feel ignorant but, where do I have to post the code thingy that's on the first post?...

The Borderlands of Solsys consists of three large islands, each roughly the size of of Madagascar and a dozen others varying in sizes from Puerto Rico to Barbados. The arrangement looks similar to the islands of Indonesia.

Solsys has no neighbors nearby. It is an isolationist country located in the ocean far from others.

Fun fun. If you guys are gonna make a map put me on please. I like the idea of a map.

[mr_ed]

Renikov - Roughly the size of China with a third of its border being coastline with the capital City405 being relatively central. Most of the country is harsh desert with much of the population living in one of the 3 major cities.

[Otter]

The Otter Archipelago is a string of largish islands that make up roughly twice the area of Japan, with thousands of associated minor islands, many of which are privately owned or protected as national park. The large seas surrounding the archipelago are steeped in history; a sort of sub tropical Mediterranean, with broad access to the rest of the ocean on both sides, similar to the Indian Ocean.

There are 6 main islands, the largish about the size of Madagascar.

We command a couple islands off the coast of Shaffey, and absurdly, we also lay claim to an island in Zootpolis' capital city Maddox in the city's central park.

Our automated navy commands most of this sea - indeed we have many nautical "cities" - but I'd welcome any other states to coast on this sea as well.

Next week everyone should have their nation's detail explained. If not, I'm sorry*.
We should start shaping the map on April 8.

* We will make the map, and nations that are late will be new islands.

[dills]

The Free Land of Modder River is a small nation, roughly the size of Switzerland. It is predominantly landlocked but has one stretch of its border along the sea.

Ok, I wanna get this GTA Forums Region Charter off the ground. So here is the first proposal I am making for it...

QUOTE

The Five Day Vote Voting on all matters within the region uses the ‘Five Day Vote’ system. The ‘Five Day Vote’ system rules that any nation of the region may vote ‘yay’ or ‘nay’ in a vote. After five days, the votes are counted and the verdict is decided. If a nation does not vote within five days, they forfeit their right to vote.

What do you guys think? Should we alter it? Should we scrap it? Is it the most awesomest thing you've ever seen?

[OdDsOcK]

I like it.

Does anyone think the "buying shares" thing on NS is an April Fool's joke? If so, I bought right into it.

It seems to be.

No it most likely is an April Fools joke.

[El Zilcho]

I approve the 5 Day Vote proposal.

[GTA_stu]

I think the 5 day thing is a good idea, it's the most awesomest thing I've ever seen. So how does this work, Just whatever has the highest amount of votes wins? What about if it's a tie?

Oh yh and I own 0.001301% of nationstates corporation. I'm gonna be rich, rich I tells ya!

[Pandazoot]

Perhaps the WA Delegate should refrain from voting. Then if it is a tie, they have the deciding vote.

[El Zilcho]

Are these votes on legislation, proposals or more informal matters?

pretty much everything concerning the region.

[OdDsOcK]

Since my vote is in about the 5 day rule, I'd also like to address people speaking about a map. Being that making a world map would be quite difficult to collaborate on, I was hoping to simplify some things by offering a website and a program that generates worlds and world maps spontaneously.

The first is a website available here: http://donjon.bin.sh/world/
You can use a few variables to change the look of a planet and you can also render the planet in different map projections (Mercator vs Square and so on). It has an "Animated Globe" feature with which I generated this .gif:


(sorry if it's big)

The next is a program I have yet to use, available here: http://socoder.net/index.php?showcase=23113
It looks really useful in creating rivers and more topographical features, but the way it generates worlds make them look more like small islands instead of a huge world, probably because of a lack of polar caps and the squareness of the generated world.

In any case I think if we used these and sectioned off a piece of land for ourselves, we could get a map working. Adding new countries would be something further to discuss.
