I'm bumping this.

Untecna you're an experienced legislator and since you're now a citizen I'd like to hear your opinion.

Examination

At a recent meeting of the council of officers, it was decided to visit Vlayikrai. In order to check the situation there and check the condition of the railway lines built with the money of Karkastan. But out of respect for this country, they decided not to make the visit unexpected and sent a letter asking for this check to be carried out

WHAT SHOULD BE THE KINGS' LAND

In Cyrichill, Cyning Eadwine Gehieran[sup]1[/sup] (Known outside of Suþmearc as King Eadwine XIII) sits on a throne of gold and lavish Velvet. While he is treated with great reverence to his face, he knows how he is spoken of outside of his court. A thin and frail man, the Heahbeag[sup]2[/sup] of his ancestors sits almost comically large atop his small head. Beyond that, though, he is seen as weak in terms of how he rules. He is called Gehieran (roughly "Obeyer") due to his reputation of bowing to the Gaderung, a council of 28 individuals meant to act as the king's counsel and advisors. He has, at least, in the eyes of the people, served their interests, even above his own. Still, he is the king. He can and will curb the Gaderung, should they overreach. They serve him.

Nearby, in the Gaderungemotstow[sup]3[/sup], 3 of the most powerful and influential members of the Gaderung, Eadmund Rædnoþ, Æthelwine Wistan, and Hluternis Cenrice, speak over a drink. They are joking, telling stories about their lives, but, eventually, the topic changes, and they start discussing Eadwine Gehieran's many faults. Hluternis, perhaps somewhat innebriated, jokingly mentions overthrowing the king, something very strictly illegal. He freezes, and begins to apologize, but realizes that the other two do not looked shocked or offended at his offhanded comment. In fact, they look inspired.

[sup]1: In Suþmearc, Regnal Numbering is not traditionally used. Instead, a practice of Regnal Surnaming is used, where a king is given a nickname based on something they did, how they look, or some other feature of them or their rule, and that nickname is used as their last name.

2: The Heahbeag (lit. "Great Crown") is the traditional crown of Suþmearc.

3: The Gaderungmotstow (Lit. "Gaderung Meeting-Place) is a building in Cyrichill where the Gaderung meets.[/sup]

Delegate is Nice :D

If you want to take part in our regional politics, in September we will elect Prime Minister, Speaker and Chief Justice.

Also we are currently in need of a Minister of Culture. You could join the Ministry of Culture (thus basically becoming a candidate for the position) by posting in the Civil Service thread: https://astorians.boards.net/thread/11/civil-service-program

Examination

The other day a commission from Karkastan visited Vlayikrai to inspect the railroads and assess the general situation. Upon returning, the commission reported that the quality of the railways was satisfactory, but still a very deplorable situation throughout the country, in connection with which, at a meeting of the Council of Officers, it was decided to transfer money again. The amount will be more modest due to LUNA-1 and will amount to 10 million Aka Ockaur.

Once again, the Vlayikrai government would thank Karkastan. Upon the reciving of the transaction, The Praimir of Vlayikrai sent the Council of Officers a handwritten note and a hand sown Aka flag. The note was completely in Aka as well, as the Praimir insisted on writing it without his knowledge of English.

LUNA-1

Recently, the state corporation PANTHEON published the following message: Now our lunar station project is moving forward. We have found support from many countries and this will greatly facilitate our work. The first stage of determining our supporters has been completed, now it's time for the second: creating parts on earth. LUNA-1 will be a station of blocks that will be delivered to the orbit of the moon. According to the plan, the station will have 20 such blocks. Among them there will be: 3 docking hatches, 4 residential blocks, 2 blocks with low-thrust moon rovers to return to the station, 7 gardens with plants which will be grown both for research and for consumption, the rest of the blocks will be given to the installation of scientific research equipment. The station plan has been sent to all the powers that are going to support this project and at the moment their approval or any proposals for changes to the station are awaited.

Nyang Grapples with Severe Damage Following Typhoon FurySky

A powerful typhoon, named "FurySky," has caused significant devastation in Nyang after making landfall with intense wind speeds exceeding 150 miles per hour (240 kilometers per hour). Coastal areas bore the brunt of the storm, experiencing widespread destruction of buildings and infrastructure, uprooted trees, and extensive flooding.

Local authorities issued evacuation orders ahead of the typhoon's arrival, resulting in some successful evacuations, but reports indicate that not all residents were able to escape the path of the storm in time. As a result, there have been casualties, and rescue teams are working diligently to provide assistance and locate those in need.

The Nyangan government swiftly declared a state of emergency in the affected regions, and relief efforts are now in motion to provide aid to impacted communities.

President Hye-jin Park addressed the nation, expressing condolences for the lives lost and assuring citizens that the government is committed to providing necessary aid and resources to assist with recovery. The focus is on restoring vital infrastructure, offering medical assistance, and ensuring the welfare of displaced individuals.

I'd say it'd be along the lines of 'sluh-maun-skee-uh' - that about right, Slomonskia?

One day, I noticed my main, Wheath, (back when I started NS) had low cheese production. This socialist paradise needs to fund a tyrannical corporation to produce cheese? Sounds hilarious.

Then came the acronym. I needed something around five letters (easy to think up shorter backronyms) and eventually tried 'dairy' - Development And Intensive Research of Yellow... Cheeses. Thus, DAIRYC.

Of note is that my region A S P I R E, based on Wheath's history, used to be similar - the Astral Socio-Political Intensive Research Enterprise - but I retconned it to the Astral Socio-Political International Research Endeavor.

No it's just Slomonskia say it how you see it u know you don't have to change the pronunciation or something, but yea, I know how it fells buddy many people don't know how to spell my country name...The point is that i asked ChatGPT to come up with a name so don't blame me, blame ChatGPT >:)

Your influence in a region grows each day, so the more time you spend in a region, the more influence you gain. Also endorsements make influence grow faster. You can endorse others and ask them to endorse you back. I would suggest starting from the delegate Koronic.
