What did I just read- im so confused
Amara Coast
The SDL's the friendly political party. We even have a drinking song we sing at our first (of three) Wednesday evening bar slogs:
sung to a tune weirdly reminiscent to "Seven Nation Army"
The bolded words (our member mascots) should be shouted
(Verse 1)
The polls are tight, the system's broke,
But raise a glass, for goodness sake!
We're the Social Democrats, that's right,
Fighting for fairness, day and night!
(Chorus)
So clink your mugs, let voices roar,
Like a lion with a shopping list at the store!
We'll finally tax the rich, raise the minimum wage,
And maybe teach that eagle to finally dodge a cage!
(Verse 2)
The working cow, she moos with might,
Demanding rights, both day and night!
Healthcare for all, a living wage to boot,
These are the things that make the Social Democrats root!
(Chorus)
So clink your mugs, let voices roar,
Like a lion with a shopping list at the store!
We'll finally tax the rich, raise the minimum wage,
And maybe teach that eagle to finally dodge a cage!
(Bridge)
Now some folks scoff, they call us fools,
With dreams of sea giraffes in swimming pools!
But hey, we dream big, that's who we are,
Equality's the wave, let's ride it far!
(Chorus)
So clink your mugs, let voices roar,
Like a lion with a shopping list at the store!
We'll tax the rich, raise the minimum wage,
And maybe teach that eagle to finally dodge a cage!
(Outro)
So raise a glass, to fairness true,
The Social Democrats, here's to you!
We'll drink and fight, for a better day,
Until that crazy sea giraffe finally learns to play!

You got OWNED by FACTS and LOGIC
Trigori, Nepo
Alright?? I got owned for/of what im so confudled like reading all tht gave me a headache-
Trigori, Amara Coast
Sorry but I don't pretty much like social democracy.
Technocracy >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Trigori, Amara Coast, Nepo
Understandable. E for empowering pretty much ruled you out from the get-go.
Trigori, Hohnwechsen, Nordheimrr, Nepo
I swear my service and allegiance to the Empire of Alemannia and her Emperor
and pledge to uphold the security and strength of Alemannia through the powers vested in me by the Constitution.
Trigori, Greater Romanian-Deutsch State, Nepo
It's looking Scandinavian boys and girls
Greater Romanian-Deutsch State, Nepo
Ooooo what does that mean? I stg you have the most insane random phrases ever! Being Canned and now that and I don't even know what that april 4 Babylon ref was!
Trigori, Greater Romanian-Deutsch State
Scandinavian as in a social democratic monarchy
I will keep you guessing for Babylon though
Greater Romanian-Deutsch State, Nepo
Okayy that's kinda cool altho why not Babylon 🥺🥺. Like I mean I could definitely Google but I WANT IT FROM YOU BEVAUSE GOOGLING IS LAME WHEN U CAN TRY TO GET THROUGH A PERSON TO SAY IT I MEAN CMONN SAYYY ITTTT PLEAASEEEE
Trigori
That would be the NCA or TVP so you can decide between those two.
Nepo
I'm giving you northern German, Namibia, Angola, and a part of southern Zaire.

Everyone the map is now updated and displays the most current version.
https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=2500551
And if you haven't noticed, a new nation has appeared on the regional map that most of you probably don't notice was in the region. The nation is [nation=noflag]Realm of Alemannia[/nation] and is right next to [nation=noflag]The Syndicalist Union[/nation]. The [nation=noflag]Realm of Alemannia[/nation] is my alt, and I had a idea that I could use it to start up rps. I just thought it would be a fun way to make some rp scenarios. The plan for now is for me to use it to start rps and once its running for me to change map positions to get more involved if they want. My current rp scenario I want to start is a border clash between [nation=noflag]The Syndicalist Union[/nation] and [nation=noflag]Realm of Alemannia[/nation]. So with [nation=noflag]The Syndicalist Union[/nation]'s approval I want to begin a rp that starts with a series of border clashes between the Syndicalists border forces and my alt will be rping as the remaining federal US government testing Syndicalist war readiness. If [nation=noflag]The Syndicalist Union[/nation] isn't interested I'll think of something else.
Trigori, Greater Romanian-Deutsch State, Nepo, The Syndicalist Union
I'll play along with it
Trigori, Greater Romanian-Deutsch State, Nepo
Angered by Federal posturing on the border of Syndicalist controlled Mississippi & Federal controlled Louisiana, the Captain of the Revolutionary Guard Corps ordered the 200 soldiers of his Company to advance on the Vicksburg Bridge. Crossing the border layed out in the middle of the bridge in what was meant to be a display of power quickly escalated when a Federal soldier fired a warning shot at the ground near the Syndicalist troops. The Syndicalist troops thinking they were being fired upon aimed their weapons at the Federal border guards and fired. The return of fire from both sides lasted a hour until the Revolutionary Guard Corps returned to their side of the bridge after running low on ammunition, the Syndicalists suffered 19 casualties.
Greater Romanian-Deutsch State, Realm Of Alemannia, Nepo
An election? And it seems competitive? How peculiar.
Trigori, Greater Romanian-Deutsch State, Solaryan Imperium, Nepo
In effect my fellow alemannian.
all votes are going to social democracy wtf
this is a true weimar republic experience
Nepo
Yes, and if you want your vote to be counted you should become a citizen
Nepo
I mean true yeah, if you don't count Residents, the vites are actually 2,4,2,2,0 respectively
Greater Romanian-Deutsch State
Greater Romanian-Deutsch State, Nepo
I have dreamt the name of the Pale Horse
Greater Romanian-Deutsch State, Nepo
They probably can if nations role-playing agree yeah!
Greater Romanian-Deutsch State, Nordheimrr
Oooooo what does that mean?
Trigori, Greater Romanian-Deutsch State
The apocalypse, of course!
Greater Romanian-Deutsch State, Nepo
Alright ofcourse ofcourse yeah! I defffffffinitelyyy knew about that! Altho hmmm what was the name of the Pale horse?
Trigori, Greater Romanian-Deutsch State
In Circassian, it was written as 'Aschwithə, the 'A pronounced as "oo" (so "oo-shkhwi-þa" for the whole name, the /ʃ/, /x/ and /w/ in the middle syllable pronounced simultaneously)
:D
Greater Romanian-Deutsch State, Nepo
23 minutes until elections conclude. I will likely calculate seat apportionment ASAP after polls close
Trigori, Nepo
Question, why is your title emperor "of the Allemagne" and not "of Alemannia"/"of the Alemannians"? Kinda confused
Greater Romanian-Deutsch State, Nepo
I think Allemagne is just that in French
Trigori, Greater Romanian-Deutsch State, Nepo
Yeah but our name is in English so it looks wrong (with the definite article too)
Greater Romanian-Deutsch State, Ottoman Realm, Nepo
Yes, when I use [nation=noflag]Realm of Alemannia[/nation] to successfully start a rp I'll swap its position on the map to start a new scenario, or get other involved if they want. It will never have a permanent spot on the map as its going to be used as a rp tool.
Greater Romanian-Deutsch State, Nepo
Well I can't speak for GRDS, its stood out to me so I've never asked about it lol
Trigori, Greater Romanian-Deutsch State, Nepo
its cuz i like it like that 😤
Nepo
From the Desk of the Emperor
Greetings all Alemannians. Although it was originally planned that there would be 6 seats in this round of Imperial Elections, I have determined a slightly different seat apportionment. There will be 7 seats in the Imperial Parliament this time. The apportionment is as follows:
Social Democracy League - 6 votes >> 3 seats
National Coalition of Alemannia - 3 votes >> 2 seats
The National Pragmatist Party of Moderate Progress Within the Bounds of Law - 2 votes >> 1 seats (note one vote was disqualified due to the person not being a citizen)
The Vanguard Party - 2 votes >> 1 seat
All party leaders are now tasked with nominating people to those seats. If you lead one of the four parties above (Ottoman Realm, Nepo, Trigori, Nordheimrr) please contact me by Discord or by telegram within 3 days with your seat nominations. Any party which fails to do so forfeits their seat(s).
Immediately proceeding after party nominations conclude will be the opening of the Parliament session and the election of our first Imperial Chancellor. I then plan to introduce constitutional amendments affecting certain flaws with the document I did not anticipate.
Thank you all!
Trigori, Hohnwechsen, Nordheimrr, Nepo
Nuh uh! Immediate constitutional amendment to stop you from having fun
Greater Romanian-Deutsch State, Nepo
Objection ymjsty, Pusa Thania is not a citizen from what I can gather
Oh yeah and Togo Kingdom too
Greater Romanian-Deutsch State, Amara Coast, Nepo
Until we have a citizenship registry I'm trying to keep track in my head but it's hard lol, I'm fine with them not having done the citizenship oath since they've endorsed you
Trigori endorsement list:
Endorsements Received: 14 » Volgastaat, Integral Palatinate, Amara Coast, Hohnwechsen, Tralusa, Rivier Vrystaat, Nepo, Siimyardo, Pusa Thania, Solaryan Imperium, Mertolvan, Robot-Hungary, Nordheimrr, and Prussian-French Commune.
Regardless of their citizenship I need to distribute 7 seats somehow
Nepo
It's easy to verify citizenship - endorsements you can see on my page and the oaths you can by looking up the nation's posts here on this RMB
Greater Romanian-Deutsch State, Nepo
IRT citizenship, why should that not be maintained in the regional factbook?
Trigori, Greater Romanian-Deutsch State, Nepo
It should, but we're not there yet
Greater Romanian-Deutsch State, Nepo
Outraged by the Syndicalists aggression, the Federal Government's military brass repostition large amounts of the nations Army & National Guard to the border with TSU.
Many Generals in the Federal Government are calling for war with the Syndicalists, their requests are met with uncertainty from Congress as the military strength and preparedness of TSU has been unseen since the Syndicalist Revolution of 1931 that lead to the defeat of the Federal Government and the foundation of the Syndicalist menace. Although Congress has denied all requests for war with TSU, they have given a green light to the Military to test Syndicalist readiness for war, but this is to be kept a secret from the public and international scene.
The first test of the Syndicalists was chosen and Federal Forces were redirected to the first target. Quincy, Illinois.
Lieutenant Colonel of the 7th Battalion closed in of the Missouri-Illinois border, the 1,000 strong force made up of 5 companies were given their orders.
-Red Star Artillery Brigade: Push up to the Federal-Syndicalist border on the Quincy Memorial Bridge but remain on the Federal side, when set up begin deploying smoke shells until a effective smoke screen is up.
-Revolutionary Armored Division: Once the smoke screen is up all tanks are to push across the bridge. Upon arrival at Syndicalist side tanks are to fire at and destroy all Syndicalist military border checkpoints, barracks, armories, vehicles, blockaides, and eliminate all Syndicalist forces trying to fight back. Avoid attacking, all civilians, and civilian buildings at all costs.
-Peoples Infantry Brigade: Follow behind the armor and secure areas of importance. Gather as much Syndicalist military intel as possible.
-Red Riders Motorized Infantry: When our forces have secured surrounding areas, the trucks will speed into the Syndicalist territory and gather Syndicalist equipment, and fight back advancing hostile forces.
-Workers Vanguard Infantry Brigade: Cross Syndicalist lines capture injured enemies, and surrendering enemies.
The plan commenced in the dead of night, catching the Syndicalists by surprise causing many to surrender or retreat. The surrounding area lit by large fires revealing the massive amounts of destruction of the attack. Federal forces quickly fell back to their lines as a large Syndicalist force arrived to meet the attackers. Federal Forces engaged the Syndicalists as they pulled back.
The Federal Forces arrived back to friendly territory victorious, capturing 14 Syndicalist troops, and large amounts of equipment from a armory before it was promptly destroyed. Federalists suffered 56 friendly casualties many being inflicted as they retreated. Federalists could only confirm 17 injured and 28 dead for Syndicalist forces.

In that case shouldn't the real votes be 2,4,2,2,0. Which is accurate and now you can distribute seats accordingly without any unfairness!
Trigori
Oh right, Allesdeutschland is also not a citizen
Strictly speaking, neither is Amara Coast but it's fine there I think, just slightly different wording
Nepo
Yepp! So the actual 3,6,3,2,0 is actually that. Sooo welp let's leave it upto the Emperor to decide the seat distribution. I'm currently happy with the distribution rn, although the updated thing would only lessen the amount of seats so im all in for retaining it!
Alles is a carry over from TH, same for Ottoman, Ill look into Amara Coast
Trigori, Nepo
Ohh right citizenship carries over from past regions
This is just straight up recalculating lol
Nepo
After the Federal attack on Quincy the Supreme Leader of TSU has begun mobilizing the nation and called for 500,000 men to be called into service of the Worker's Liberation Militia (WLM). The Supreme Leader has called for the Alemannic Nations to condemn the aggressive actions of the Federal Government and support TSU with military and monetary aid.
The Supreme Leader filled with rage, ordered the Houlton garrison of 7,000 WLM troops in Wisconsin to cross the border into Minnesota and enact the revenge of the people on the small Federal town of Oak Park Heights, Minnesota.
The 7,000 WLM soldiers emboldened by the rhetoric of their Supreme Leader and jacked up with Syndicalist patriotism cross the border into Federal territory and towards Oak Park Heights. With no plan or orders given to them other than the call for the revenge of the people the troops charge into the town, quickly overwhelming and capturing the small force of 100 border guards without a single casualty. All federal military, border guards, police, and political figures were rounded up and promptly executed by firing squad. The towns capital was ransacked then lit ablaze, WLM troops gathered the towns 5,000 civilians and gave them two options. Join the revolution and return to the Union with the WLM, or be given 1 hour to collect their things and flee. Any civilians not joining the revolution after the 1 hour is up will be imprisoned or executed for espionage.
567 civilians joined the revolution and the rest chose to flee.
Once the 1 hour was up the WLM forces looted, ransacked, and burned down houses, businesses, and other buildings leaving the town as ruble and ash. Oak Park Heights disappeared from the map completely, the WLM lead the new revolutionaries back to Houlton and declared the raid a victory for the Union and revolution.
TSU suffered 0 casualties during the raid, while the Federal's suffered 342 dead, the WLM left no injured.

Point of order: the oath was every word in the proper order (with the added fortune of an added word). Additionally, fealty is strengthened because I did not lay my hand on a sea giraffe at the moment, indicating the oath was non-partisan.
Trigori, Greater Romanian-Deutsch State, Nepo
The question is though, did a Quaker dwarf officiate the oath or not?
Hohnwechsen, Greater Romanian-Deutsch State, Amara Coast, Nepo
Wha...What does that even mean
Trigori, Greater Romanian-Deutsch State, Nepo
ARISTOCRATIC REACTION.
RETVRN BACK TO TRADITION.
REACT AGAINST THE MODERN WORLD.
HAIL THE KING.
Trigori, Greater Romanian-Deutsch State, Nepo
Shocked by Syndicalist brutality towards Federal Military personnel & Civilians, the President calls out to foreign nations for support and condemnation of the red menace. The President has ordered all civilians living in border towns evacuate for there safety, and all border towns will become military housing, planning, and logistic centers.
Greater Romanian-Deutsch State, Ottoman Realm, Nepo, Carlist Iberia
Everyone this is The Syndicalist Union I found a better name I'll be moving my dispatches to this and use this account from now on
Greater Romanian-Deutsch State, Nepo
TRIGORI ALWAYS DOES THAT! THE MOST ABSURDLY RANDOM AND WEIRDLY COOL SHlT HUMANITY HAS EVER SEEN. I STRIVE TO BE LIKE TRIGORI! ALL HEIL THE SCANDINAVIAN DAYS
Trigori, Greater Romanian-Deutsch State
Point of Order (again): technically, you did not require it for these oaths. I checked the fine print.
Trigori, Nepo
howdy fellers, i just came back from an unsaid 3-day break from the internet, whats goin on? 🤠🤠

How do I get added to the map?

Can any political party ensure the restoration of the rightful Stuart Line?? If it's not one of your policy goals I am NOT voting for you!!

Trigori, Greater Romanian-Deutsch State, Nepo
Hmm since every party must have decided on their seats, Why don't we proceed further instead of waiting for more days?
Greater Romanian-Deutsch State, Nordheimrr
I was holding everyone up; we should be fine now.
Friendly promotion to all Rhine members to join the Vanguard Party and read my other writings, love you all. https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=2502493
Trigori, Greater Romanian-Deutsch State, Nepo
And what would this entail? Filling out forms, I presume?
Trigori, Nordheimrr, Nepo
Read the WFE its like two basic steps that'll take no more than a minute
Trigori, Hohnwechsen, Nordheimrr
Hey Amara Coast, what's your on discord?
Nordheimrr
Calibrate your raindrop patterns. The autumn badger will bow only when thunderstorms likely. Check for the weather ratios; remember that BČ/ČNS accounts for the stiffness of BOTH not one. 6342.
Trigori, Nepo
HONNA
Nepo
I'll help decode this! So the first sentence "Calibrate your raindrop patterns" actually warns you and alerts you about an upcoming event which might or might not be harmful but we need to be ready for it! The next sentence says it will only happen under specific conditions however the third sentence asks you to analyse whether those specific condutions have met their needs or not! The BC/CNS accounts for stiffness with diff language symbols on "C" used for inducing some sorta accent when u read it indicates that you have to assess both sides of the coin not just one. 6342 is an enigmatic way to say stay safe! You're welcome Alemannia!
Trigori, Amara Coast
Hello, is this a monarchist region?
Trigori, Greater Romanian-Deutsch State
Yes, monarchist-imperialist. I am His Majesty, happened to check in just as you posted. Welcome! Please do let us know if there is anything we can do for you.
Carlist Iberia
Mhm, a quick reply, what a pleasant surprise.
Excellent, what are some recommended steps for beginners in this region?
Trigori, Greater Romanian-Deutsch State
I recommend joining the Discord, and also following the path to citizenship - it's in the World Factbook Entry at the top of our page.
Ah, Discord, I don't have that yet, give me a moment...
Greater Romanian-Deutsch State
Alright, been there, done that.
Greater Romanian-Deutsch State
Do you guys have a map or something?
Trigori, Greater Romanian-Deutsch State
Yes, https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=2500551
Could you transfer my claims as far as that's possible?

As King Arthur said to Brave Sir Robin: "On second thought, let's not go to Discord. 'Tis but a silly place."

Me when the parlachud seatjak refuses the power given to him by the peoplecels
Greater Romanian-Deutsch State, Amara Coast, Nepo, Carlist Iberia
Correction, Sire: you are not his majesty, as he is not of a member state. Your are your majesty, which you should hear all the time: "Your Majesty, your self-flagellation advisor is here. No, no, your Majesty! Not self-immolation, self-flagellation. Remember how the other one didn't work out so well for the previous Your Majesty?"
Glad I could clear that up.
Trigori, Greater Romanian-Deutsch State, Nepo
We should depose the Your Majesty for this transgression posthaste
Hohnwechsen, Greater Romanian-Deutsch State, Amara Coast, Nepo, Carlist Iberia
Its efficient for communication especially regarding the debates about to happen on the Parliament side of things! And as an honorable seat holder, King Arthur post 2 years said, "On third thought, let's go to discord. 'Tis but a talk talk debate debate cool place!".
Trigori, Greater Romanian-Deutsch State, Amara Coast
don't make bad propaganda for the unhinged discord dammit.
Greater Romanian-Deutsch State, Nepo
I demand the immediate entry of Amara Coast and Rivier Vrystaat in the discord so that we can proced wirh Parliament stiff, otherwise, I'll uhh, I'll cry!
Trigori, Amara Coast
I likes me teletype and that's the way of it. To quote our former Your Majesty: "Whores are like a box of chocolates. You have to pay more for the good ones." I'm not sure what that means, but I've got me a sweet-tooth and the Pony Express needs to be summoned.
Trigori
Hm that's rather crude, is it not?
Trigori
A quote from me:
[spoiler]"get the f*ck in discord or loose your seat in parliament and get kidnapped to my basement, trust me I have robbed the medieval torture methods."[/spoiler]
Amara Coast
Ahem...[cracking knuckles; spinning up the spool wire]: "-. ---"
Trigori, Solaryan Imperium
I'm afraid you've mistaken me for someone else. My country is famous for its cigars and non-commercialized baseball. Ottoman Realm is who you're thinking about. His nation pumps a lot of crude.
Trigori, Ottoman Realm
Well, that's going to suck in a crab through a narrow fissure because it would be best if the parliament sat in one place... and the RMB isn't ideal for it
Though hypothetically, a small psychic monkey could be used to relay messages to the Discord parliament via Nationstates infrastructure...
Hohnwechsen, Amara Coast
Understandable. I'm no parliamentarian anyhow, so the seat can be filled by another..
Like one with a slight vision issue? I have just the primate in mind, if so.
Trigori
When are your next elections?
Greater Romanian-Deutsch State
We just ran a cycle, the next elections are to be held in four months, though I may look at shortening the time period
