Waffles. All the way.
Unike, Royal Emerald Republic
I've never had waffles so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
How is this even possible
YouÂ’ve not been graced by our lord and savior, waffles? WeÂ’ve gotta fix that.

Hey, uh, I actually have an image (Damon Hill VII). Yay!

Rosartemis, what are you doing!?
I don't think it would be TO much of stretch for Arembolia to have this, considering I've emphasized Arembolia's power at sea and dependence on the sea:
Sea Serpents Brigade:
The Sea Serpents Brigade is an elite naval force comprised of highly skilled sailors and mariners. Renowned for their exceptional seamanship and naval combat expertise, members of the Sea Serpents Brigade are trained to navigate treacherous waters, engage in ship-to-ship combat, and execute lightning-fast boarding maneuvers. Armed with specialized cutlasses, harpoons, and grappling hooks, they are a formidable force on the seas.

The Home Initiative
The Principate of Esmer institutes an uncompromising and rigorous training regimen for all military units, volunteers, security personnel, police, officers, and espionage departments. This thorough and demanding training program is designed to elevate the competence and effectiveness of Esmer's defense forces to an elite standard.
Vast funding is allocated to establish state-of-the-art training grounds equipped with cutting-edge facilities and resources. The recruitment of highly skilled trainers, including special mercenaries and retired seasoned warriors, is a key component of this initiative. Their wealth of experience contributes to the development of an exceptionally skilled and disciplined military force.
Esmer places a strong emphasis on diversity in training scenarios, incorporating real-world simulations, unconventional warfare exercises, and strategic decision-making simulations. The training program challenges participants physically, mentally, and strategically, ensuring they are well-prepared to face a broad spectrum of threats.
Specialized units, such as commando forces and intelligence operatives, undergo advanced training tailored to their specific roles. This includes mastering covert operations, counter-terrorism tactics, and cyber warfare strategies.
Building on the military's elite training, Esmer introduces an introductory version of the rigorous training program into the youth scouting program. This initiative aims to instill discipline, resilience, and basic self-defense skills among the younger generation. By incorporating elements of the military training into the scouting program, Esmer seeks to incentivize youth participation and foster a sense of national preparedness.
In parallel, Esmer enforces health measures as a legal mandate, recognizing the importance of maintaining the well-being of its citizens. The state actively promotes good dietary habits, disease prevention, and mental health awareness. This comprehensive health initiative includes public education campaigns, access to quality healthcare, and state-supported programs to encourage regular exercise.
Law enforcement ensures adherence to health regulations, emphasizing the importance of a balanced lifestyle. Esmerian citizens are encouraged to prioritize their physical and mental well-being, with the state taking an active role in eliminating barriers to achieving optimal health.
In tandem with its transformative initiatives, Esmer places a strong emphasis on education as a cornerstone of progress. The government channels substantial resources into educational reforms, ensuring access to quality education at all levels. These reforms include curriculum enhancements, advanced training for educators, and the integration of emerging technologies in the learning environment.
The comprehensive reforms initiated by the government have effectively eradicated joblessness and homelessness. Recognizing the success of these endeavors, Esmer enshrines the commitment to pursue full employment and housing for all into law. The state actively plans and develops new cities, towns, and villages to accommodate the growing population, ensuring that every citizen has a place to call home.
As part of its progressive immigration campaign, Esmer invites those without homes, families, jobs, or hope to join the thriving community it has cultivated. This inclusive approach extends to individuals seeking a new path, regardless of their current circumstances. The welcoming policy aims to provide opportunities for a better life, offering a fresh start to those in need.
By intertwining education, employment, and housing initiatives, Esmer endeavors to create a society where every individual has the chance to flourish. This holistic approach reflects the Principate's commitment to providing a supportive environment for its citizens and those seeking refuge in a nation that values progress, inclusivity, and the well-being of all.

STATUS FOR THE DAY
The Dominion of Elysorium is a tiny, safe nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, frequent executions, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-working, democratic population of 10 million Elysoriumians enjoy frequent elections, which are uniformly corrupted by big-spending corporations buying politicians who best suit their interests.
The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 24.6%.
The very strong Elysoriumian economy, worth 631 billion Regal Talons a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Retail. Average income is 63,160 Regal Talons, with the richest citizens earning 8.8 times as much as the poorest.
It takes all playtime for children to locate their friends among two hundred identical heads, EULAs remind customers that "Private Mode" is a browser setting rather than a promise, business meetings across the country are interrupted by the sound of squeaking whoopee-cushions, and the police double as repo men. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Elysorium's national animal is the Regal Lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Elysorium is ranked 156,737th in the world and 108th in Astoria for Most Advanced Public Transport, scoring 686.8 on the Societal Mobility Rating.

Third Koronic Arms Deals

STATUS FOR THE DAY
The Shogunate of Girtaltor is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Wielhelm V with an iron fist, and notable for its anti-smoking policies, prohibition of alcohol, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 8.952 billion Girtaltorians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Industry, and Education also on the agenda, while Social Policy and International Aid are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Berlin. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 86.6%.
The frighteningly efficient Girtaltorian economy, worth a remarkable 2,403 trillion Hercoes a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 268,525 Hercoes, with the richest citizens earning 8.7 times as much as the poorest.
13-year-old internet trolls are treated as a threat on par with terrorists, organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region, Wielhelm V lives life on the open road - complete with groupies, and adverts depict men giving birth while cursing the women who got them into trouble. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Girtaltor's national animal is the Drago, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Catholicism.
Girtaltor is ranked 7,888th in the world and 2nd in Astoria for Most Advanced Public Transport, scoring 3,484.86 on the Societal Mobility Rating.

Royal Athenai Daily (RAD) "We offer the most rad news out there!"
DATE: Friday July 5, 2036
TITLE: Royal Emerald Republic Leaves British Commonwealth
Breaking News Regarding Official Statement from the Parthenon
In a historic announcement, the Royal Athenai News reports that the Royal Emerald Republic has made a decisive decision to withdraw from the British Commonwealth. This momentous choice, marking a new chapter in our nation's journey, comes with the solemn recognition that our destiny is one uniquely shaped by the aspirations, dreams, and sovereignty of the Royal Emerald Republic. The new law, titled as the Queen Elizabeth Monarchal Transition Act (hereinafter "the Act") is codified at 10 E.R.C. §1946.
This Act comes with the passing of Her Late Majesty, Queen Elizabeth the Second, the Royal Emerald Republic has chosen to not retain King Charles III as Head of State. In this transformative moment and in a moment of conciliation, unity, and good will, the mantle of the Monarch and Head of State will now be gracefully worn by Monarch Astoreus Kingsley of Astoria. His ascension to the "throne" of the Royal Emerald Republic as Head of State symbolizes our commitment to charting an independent course while fostering alliances and bonds with nations across the globe. While there has never been a formal King or Queen to sit on the "throne" of the Royal Emerald Republic, the Monarch serves as the Head of State from abroad and may appoint royal governors to oversee issues where the Royal Parliament has failed to do so. Unlike the United Kingdom however, the Monarch does not give royal assent to the passing of laws and largely serves a ceremonial role unless the Royal Parliament, the Archon, or both violate the Constitution or Bill of Rights.
Additionally, this Act removes the Royal Emerald Republic from the British Commonwealth. For the first time since the Union Jack was raised over the bombed out Acropolis in the Second World War, the flag of the Commonwealth, the United Kingdom, and the Royal Emerald Republic Flag with the Union Jack have been lowered. In an elaborate ceremony, as the flags were lowered the new flags: the flag of the Region of Astoria, the Flag of the Astorian Monarch, and the revised Royal Emerald Republic flag were raised in their place.
As the new flag of the Royal Emerald Republic unfurls in the breeze, adorned with the colors of Astoria, let it symbolize the dawn of a new era. May this moment be etched in the annals of our nation's history as we step into a future uniquely shaped by the indomitable spirit of the Royal Emerald Republic.
Copies of the Act and this Dispatch have been preserved by the Royal Archives.

Break-in News!
A pair of youngsters broke into the Senate's courtyard, much to the dismay of the security, who were so perplexed by their action of extreme acrobatics and parkour, that they didn't report it until they were about to leave, in which they were shortly apprehended, but surprisingly offered a good deal in the acrobatic class of the state university at Esmer City, given that they make double internship on the government when the time comes. They were nicknamed the Flying Rouges, allegedly a couple.

Space drama?
The Federation of Olivio and Kingdom of Koronic moved to push the Shadow Imperium out of the United Astronomical Research Agency as negotiations to re-organize the project with the Pact of the East are opened.
The Federation of Olivio offers the Shadow Imperium to repay them for any funds they put into the program.

Astoria Nations Apex League
That's been the in RP name of the league for years
Olivio
ANAL? God damn.
Still very dirty
That's just the abbreviation ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
If you would like to join (which anyone who's in the RP can) all you have to do is let me know want your team to be called :3
i too, was heavenly disappointed when i learned the abbreviation
Question of the Day
What is the worst movie you have ever watched?
tough one, im not a huge movie guy but i think the worst movie my eyes ever had the displeasure of witnessing was coneheads.
Unike
Scary Movie 1-2
the Percy Jackson movies after I read the novels
Unike, Magna-Scientia, Omnicontrol, Dairyc
same thing applies to harry potter
Unike
Santa Jaws
Unike
Worst movie? Here's a list
-What's Up: Ballon to the Rescue
-The Little Panda Fighter
-Eternals
-Hotel Translvania 3
-Both Percy Jackson Movies
-Ratatoing
-Game Over Man!
-Clone Wars Movie
-The Star Wars Sequels
More will come. I cannot think of the rest at this time.
Also, I do not wish to join the ANAL party.
Fair enough it is by no means a requirement
Clone Wars Movie is goated tfym. That's actually crazy
Nah. It sucks. Mostly for Ahsoka. She really sucked. Rex, Anakin Obi-wan, Ventress, and Jaba were good. Ahsoka just drove the movie down.
Also, most of those were mockbusters
Dragons, because they come in so many shapes and sizes.
I know youÂ’re gonna hate me for this, butÂ…Turning Red. The main character is such an entitled Karen.
I do kinda agree. That mom and daughter are . . . not quite good. The dad was the saving grace and the thing it was talking about was good. As in the moral was good.
Even the moral was a little disappointing compared to movies of yesteryear like Titan A.E. and Atlantis. I mean, why get upset when you donÂ’t get to go to that concert when you could care about someone whose entire home planet has been blown to smithereens?
Fair enough. Still, it wasn't the WORST moral ever taught, by Disney even (Looking at you, Raya). Besides, isn't the moral about puberty or smth?
Lol, yeah, I'm staying away from that mess.
I think the movies were a really good adaptation. Azkaban, I think, in particular.
The problem is in the source material for HP, unlike PJ&O.
Not sure why you think the moral of Raya (“love and trust people even in difficult times”) is bad, but the moral of Turning Red (“parents should just let their kids do whatever they want even when it’s dangerous, because teaching them right from wrong is abusive”) is good. Selfish much?

pancakes and waffles both good. but waffles are too thick.
Pancakes are mid

Did . . . didn't Raya did do everything to build trust with someone who betrayed her multiple times?
Also, Turning Red was about puberty.

Have fun in your cave then. IÂ’m going to connect with the world.
Redeeming someone with your love, even when they betray you, is far more moral than acting on your hormones. Reminds me of how Akima in Titan A.E. never gave up on her fellow humans even though one betrayed her. (He redeemed himself in the end.)
You probably loved Song of the South. 🤦🏽♀️
Except there not. Pancakes and waffles taste differently, if you didn't realize this you are a fool.
Remember to keep conversations civil please and thank you :3
