ooh. sounds like it has a really interesting phonology!
Woopera
Not really, the most interesting sounds are /t͡ɬ/ and /d͡ɮ/
u sure? in my opinion with that single word you had it sounded really cool. i think for nahua the most interesting sound is /x/. theres also a lot of /ŋ/.
Wait some minutes, I'll try to write ALL phonèmes in GLÖSO
ight. ill try to do the same for nahua
p, b, t, d , k , g, m, n, ɲ, ŋ, pf, bv, ts, dz, tʃ, dʒ, kx, r, g, f, v, s, z, ʃ, ʒ, x, h, w, j, l, t͡ɬ, d͡ɮ.

I know the perfect moment to join again! (I'll probably only be there for 2 days)
Koronic, Astoreus
Astoria is currently ranked among the top 100 largest regions by number of nations.
Rosartemis
Yep! And to think we're not even a year old and a stronghold (regions that have a governor and do not receive spawns), if you ask me, that's extremely impressive, seeing as most strongholds these days cap out at 250 and maintain it from there for years, and much of it is thanks to the hard work of my Keepers :)
Shion Sonozaki State
There was some conversation in a (now disbanded) region I used to be a member of, that 100 nations is around where regions could either handle or fall. That was 3 years ago, it probably doesn't hold up now.
Rosartemis, Shion Sonozaki State
Hi Starfind.
I credit much of Astoria's survival past that milestone to Astoreus, Astoria wouldn't have lasted so long without Astoreus' constant guidance :>
Astoreus, Shion Sonozaki State
The region is progressing nicely.
Astoreus, Rosartemis
What was the name of the region?
Rosartemis
My post was a bit misphrased. The post was in early Callista right after Bluecrown Keep collapsed shortly after hitting 100 nations.
Shion Sonozaki State
I assumed. I haven't introduced myself here yet:
https://www.nationstates.net/nation=allertania/detail=factbook/id=1908313
One thing I don't understand is why not want to surpass 100 nations? I mean, I get the precedent, but it doesn't make sense to superimpose a hypothetical limit on when a region becomes too much to manage.
In my experience the hardest part about running the region is just running it, most of my struggle with running Astoria was properly separating duties and ensuring that the executive government doesn't get burnt out, regular members may come and go, but if the people you delegate the duties of running the region to become tired, that's when a region starts to bleed itself dry.
Astoreus, Shion Sonozaki State
I think Arisyan has changed his mind since then.
Perhaps, but it is still worth commenting on it, no hate to Arisyan 😛
Astoreus, Shion Sonozaki State
BCK was as Callista sometimes is now, a region of heated debate. IOC probably even more often. It's hard to moderate because discussions happen over small things sometimes.
Arguments over arbitrary things divide regions, which is why Astoria actively avoids them, especially those of a political nature. We generally accept most views, except for obvious ones like fascism, bigotry, racism, homophobia, and transphobiapractically any belief that seeks to harm people. ICly, we have many defenders on our Discord server who use Astoria (a raider region) as a means to converse casually, which is one of the things I quite enjoy about Astoria, as you don't normally see that many defenders in the regional discord of their IC enemies.
In an OOC sense, Astoria is also a majority leftist region, which helps shape the kind of community it wants to build, avoiding any kind of political conflict between members. Serious debate isn't banned at all in Astoria; however, the OOC administration also ensures that such debates do not spiral out of control and are shut down before they become heated.
The thing about building regions and setting a tone for what you want to see and what you don't want to see is that you need to know what you want. Let's take NSLeft, for example. It is an interregional alliance that appeals to and seeks out like-minded leftist individuals, as opposed to a region that encourages all kinds of political ideologies, with or without the exception of aforementioned harmful ideologiesit doesn't really matter in that exampleand debate. Now, the question is, how far do you want the "difference" to be? You cannot stop politics from being heated; that's just not how it works. So, before you consider building a region that appeals to all ideologies, the important part is figuring out where to draw the line on what is and what is not acceptable, which means appealing to a region with widely different ideas.
Riko Republic, Astoreus, Shion Sonozaki State
You're right. We also accept different opinions, some regions focus more on entertainment and less on politics.
Rosartemis
Without the wheel, you wouldn't have been born likely.
Good morning Astoria, how are we all doing today :3
Shion Sonozaki State
Good morning, I feel good. How are you?
Eh fairly decent in general, glad to hear you're doing well!
Catgirlboss, Shion Sonozaki State
Well with the roleplay coming to a close, the United Ariabics with the new roleplay with similarities to the Ottoman army and the early Islamic civilization research and trade aspects. More details may follow but I wonder what other nation traits that everyone will have. It's a mystery that everyone will have.
