Region: Astoria
That's nothing. There are people with thousands of puppets ready to mass produce nukes :3
Rr Puppet, Ocalaa
I have 0 puppets and I want to produce planes that can drop nukes that can go over mach 3!
So in case any anti-air missiles want to intercept my nuclear bomber they wont be able to due to being too fast!
I've got over 50 puppets in total, but I'll probably only use 15 of them. Several Regions I've got puppets in are encouraging players to join Annaagli, but I hope y'all aren't too concerned with my puppets, including DAIRYC, joining HotA?
If your main allegiance is to a region in that faction, go ahead. Astoria will be advised to join Anime but you're not *forced* to.

What is love?

Fun fact: Even though the blue whale is the largest animal on earth, it cant swallow anything bigger than a beach ball.
Rr Puppet, Omnicontrol
Hi
Evinagioni
I think HUE is joining KHAN but I'm joining up with you guys and joining Anime as well!
This doesn't even seem like it should be possible lol
Sarah Sparkle
As an anime girl myself I support Anime Nations Against Liberals. It's clearly the superior faction :3
Rr Puppet, Omnicontrol
No doubt!
I'm not sure that's correct. Also, how many organisms can swallow a beach-ball sized anything?
Unike, Evinagioni, United In Majesty
I have no idea either
Dairyc, Evinagioni
I believe that's not too far off. After all blue whales evolved to eat plankton and a blue whale's throat is wide less than a ft. despite the fact that it's the largest animal in the world.
So yeah a blue whale cannot swallow a person:

I guess a big snake like anacondas can. Also sharks and likely crocodiles too. They're all smaller than a whale tho.

Hey
Omnicontrol, Eroter Toket, Evinagioni, United In Majesty
Heyo welcome to Astoria!
Hi
Rr Puppet
Snakes makes sense as they are designed to basically stretch to fit in much larger prey then their own bodies.
Dairyc, Evinagioni, United In Majesty
Hello everyone!
Eroter Toket, Jobi, Evinagioni, Catgirlboss, United In Majesty
Exactly. Snakes are certainly able to swallow a beach ball lol
Heyo welcome! How are you?
Rr Puppet, Jobi, The Free City Of Danzig
I'm fine! As you can all see I'm the Free City of Danzig: just trying to be as similar as possible to my city!
Also happy to be here!
Jobi, Evinagioni, Sarah Sparkle
Glad to hear you're fine!
Are you a city-state? That's a cool concept!
If you like to worldbuild you could join the world assembly and endorse Koronic then apply to join our roleplay! :D
Or if you want to be involved more you can also become a citizen or join the regional army!

Yeah, it would be cool to roleplay but as I'm new I don't understand how the world assembly works
Jobi, Evinagioni, United In Majesty, Sarah Sparkle
Are you new and you're wondering what the world assembly is, how it works and how to join? No worries we got you covered! 💪

United In Majesty, The Free City Of Danzig
If in doubt about WA type stuff you can always just follow your region's delegate's lead on votes too
Catgirlboss
I guess we will do so.
Rr Puppet, Evinagioni
Less than 24 hours to N-Day!
Nukes will start flying by then! :D

Rr Puppet, Omnicontrol, Sarah Sparkle
I didn't say there weren't any. Considering hippos eat watermelons...
Baleen whales probably are physically capable, but their filter feeding habits leave their presumably girthy throats unintruded by larger objects than what they normally consume.
Edit: I reread your comment of their throats not exceeding a foot.
Galliadurm, Sarah Sparkle
hm
Evinagioni, West Roma
Wouldn't Reunited Rome be your offspring? The empire fell, was split between east and west, then reunited
West Roma
You dont have to put it as Offspring maybe just a successor
Evinagioni
Reunited Rome was an account originally amde for a Roman themed region. If West Roma is the resurgence of the Western Roman Empire presumably under ostrogoth or visigoth rule, that must mean I'm the Byzantine Empire?
Nice
Omnicontrol
hallo

Evinagioni, Catgirlboss
Our faction is Anime Nations Against Liberals
https://www.nationstates.net/page=faction/fid=3
But it looks like you already joined our enemies of KHAN...
No problem. I'm just happy I had the chance to put up an anime flag over Astoria :3
Omnicontrol, Dairyc, Evinagioni
aww tysm ^_^
Evinagioni
hello astoria :)

Unike, Evinagioni
Post by Evinagioni suppressed by Omnicontrol.
Hello. You're in Omni's basement? This explains why I haven't seen you lately. I'll get you out!
Unike, Arstotskiano
No can do, and I'm doing pretty well!

Greetings!
Furecia
The establishment is after me. But I won't be suppressed, the truth will be revealed and the truth is... *disappears*
Come on Gioni... go down the stairs, there are free sweets down there!
Evinagioni
go into ambis' office and take 26 left turns
Evinagioni, Warzone Ocala
understood.
I don't trust you. Also everybody knows Tazarskia owns all sweets in the region.
Just how big is their office?
Tazarskia
why would you not trust me 😔
Evinagioni
Yes, and it's all hidden!
Uhm lemme think... you attempted to lock me in a cage and locked Arstotskianoin your basement, you promised sweet but all I got was memes.
Furecia
You can tell me where your stash is. I promise to keep the secret.
Seconds ago: Following new legislation in Eroter Toket, the government believes there is no problem that raising taxes won't fix.
Welfare state in a nutshell
Very big, i get lost trying to find the vending machines. O_o
Eroter Toket, Evinagioni, Catgirlboss
I didn't lock you in a cage! In fact I AM in a cage. Someone should tell Catgirlboss to allow me out...
Catgirlboss, Olivio
You ate him?
Vore? 🧐
Catgirlboss
Who said anyone ate whom though?
Evinagioni is in a cage, Omni said he WAS the cage. So, Evinagioni is inside of Omni

Better written emergency legislation sorry discord has word limit so I posted it here
Emergency Law Crisis Act
Type: Institutional Law
Article 1: Implementation of Law during the State of Emergency
1.
a. In the midst of a State of Emergency, the Prime Minister, or the king with the approval of the crowned assembly by a 2/3 majority, shall have the authority to pass emergency laws via decree. This authority can be nullified once more with a simple majority of the crowned assembly
b. During the alternative modus operandi, in the midst of a State of Emergency, the Prime Minister, with the approval of the Regional Assembly by a simple majority, shall have the authority to pass emergency law via decrees. This authority can be nullified once more by a simple majority of the Assembly.
2. Emergency Laws are simply decrees passed by the Prime Minister and the king during times of Emergency. During the emergency, they are not subject to the same restrictions typical during normal times. The main restriction removed is that emergency laws can be implemented on matters outside of the fields of application of current law, but still is required to respect the Constitution. This is necessary to allow the government the flexibility and speed to respond to a variety of possible emergencies. The removal of this restriction only lasts for the duration of this emergency.
3. Emergency Laws are only prone to the scrutiny of the crowned assembly after the emergency has passed. Emergency Laws are temporary and only last for the duration of the Emergency. The Senate and/or the Assembly, if they desire to do so, can pass these emergency laws as normal laws, using the standard procedures of lawmaking the legislature possesses.
Article 2: Validity of the Emergency
1. When the Executive declares a State of Emergency, the Prime Minister or the declarer of the Emergency is required to give a written declaration of the reasonings for such an Emergency to the Senate. The crowned assembly, after the emergency has ended, shall be charged with investigating these reasonings, and determining whether the Executive was valid to declare the emergency. Any further action against the Executive, regardless of whether the emergency was valid or not, shall follow the normal set of impeachment guidelines found in the Constitution.

Senate is the executive board here

Wait WHAT- I'm not inside Omni, I'm in a far worse place... at school 🥺

[/spoiler]
Sorry I'm not gonna let you out of the cage, you're too dangerous.
Anyways you're in good company, New Shadow Imperium and Mercov are in there too :>
Olivio
I like the idea behind the bill but we don't have a Senate in Astoria, our executive is the Council of Ministers which consists of the PM and all ministers that are appointed by them.
Aside from the references to the Senate the bill looks well written. I suggest you amend Article I so that a state of emergency can be declared either by the Monarch or the Prime Minister and require a supermajority of the Crowned Assembly to pass and be repealed.
In Article II I would replace the Senate with the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court should be charged with investigating the validity and legality of a declared state of emergency.
Furecia, Olivio
gioni is not inside me sadly

agreed will do it

some more suggestion
legislation on Civil Dissent
001:Any resident may petition for a Vote of No Confidence against any elected official.
002:Should any official be accused of any infraction or questionable action, the informant will take any information to the Board which will take action according to the information received.
003:The official carrying the case will review the accusation and determine whether to move forward with the Vote of No Confidence. If that official deems the accusation too minor, the case is dismissed. If the official deems the accusation worthy of a Vote of No Confidence, the case proceeds.
i. While under investigation, the accused will be suspended from office and their duties will be taken up by their superior.
ii. Board or aforementioned substitute will review the evidence against the defendant and present it to the region in a public forum.
iii. The defendant will have 24 hours to defend themselves against the evidence in a public forum.
iv. At the end of those 24 hours, a regional poll will be put up restricted to resident native World Assembly nations. This poll will be open for 3 days and will allow residents to vote on the accused's removal from office.
v. A more than three-fifths majority vote is required to remove the official from office. vi. Once a verdict has been reached, it cannot be appealed or overturned. If unsuccessful, another Vote of No Confidence may not be called against the same official for 30 days.
vii.Should the vote end in favour of removal, it falls to the Monarch or Delegate to remove the accused from office.
004:In certain situations an official may automatically and instantly be removed from office without following the Vote of No Confidence format.
i. Should any official cease to exist or leave the region for over 24 consecutive hours, they shall immediately be removed from their position.
ii. Should any official that facilitates elections fail to deliver ballots within a 24 hour period after the elections are due to start, they shall be automatically removed from office and replaced by their direct superior. The new election facilitator has a new 24 hour period to send the ballot before they are automatically removed under this rule again.
How are you guys doing on this fine day?
Omnicontrol, Eroter Toket, Evinagioni
Doing fine. hbu?

I just introduced ID chips. My citizens are administered an under-the-skin ID chip now
Rr Puppet
I'm doing well, after all I just raised cheese exports by 25%, and that sounds like something straight out of 1984
Eroter Toket
Our cheese exports took a dive during summer and never really recovered after that...
On the other hand Toket has become increasingly authoritarian. we're banning everything that can be banned, implemented authocracy as a policy and corporal punishment. the world has classified us as iron fist consumerists probably thanks to our economy
Rr Puppet
Based
Im over here and idk what key bind my- lethal Grenade is on.
Hey guys, I'm trying to make hash browns, and I'm scared I might burn them. What should I do?
Evinagioni
Poptart
Sounds like you should improve those cheese exports then! Ironically I've became less authoritarian recently as elections were restored in RR Puppet for the first time in awhile.
Just watch them carefully you can usually tell when food is burning
