Everybody ready for N-Day?

Not-Brittania wrote:Everybody ready for N-Day?

I don't really feel ready since it's my first N-Day, but I'm excited to see what it is all about.

Is lunching nukes like wars (consentual role play) or do you gain the ability to lunch nukes in game (as a mechanic)?

[Edit] After reading the instructructions, it seems like it's not roleplay, so this event seems interesting.

New poll is open!

Also congratulations to Jewish Sealand on becoming RMBer of the Week!

This Thursday (23rd of September) marks 3 years since Menorica's official greetings of what was the British Commonwealth of Nations that is now officially known as Empire of Great Britain. This is remarkable. I remember coming to the British Commonwealth of Nations seeing the name not knowing it would become part of Menorica's History, The reasonings for my entrance to the British Commonwealth of Nations, A region very few of whom in here probably remember, Is because of the remembrance of the real life Commonwealth, How Unifying it is and how amazing it is for it to be part of British History. In 2020 i proposed a bill as part of Her Majesty's Government (NS) on to restore the Commonwealth as a Factbook process instead of a regional process, For nations inside the region that felt like Uniting with a common long-term regional member, This bill is still pending. My conclusion is because of the closure of the British Commonwealth of Nations region it's created a great new region where everybody can come together as not only a roleplaying nation but also as people; Uniting to create a great region that probably would have not happened if the name was decided on something else rather than an imperial region.

In honour of Menorica's Commonwealth Entrance Day 2021, I have hoisted the First Flag of Menorica that was first introduced in the British Commonwealth of Nations. May The King Be Happy And Victorious, And Long May He Reign Over Us!

Congratulations! We are blessed to have you!

WHAT'S GOING ON AND WHY IS IT A BIG DEAL?: What IS going on is a almost decade-old Nuclear War event on NationStates, Started in 2017, This event is very chaotic. New Nations, This war doesn't effect your population but virtually it will in the game event. It is a big deal as it will be International, Displayed below your header for nearly say 24 Hours or more if extended this year.

WHAT IS NUCLEAR WAR ON NATIONSTATES?: N-Day is a strategy game, What started in March during a chaotic Political time in 2017, And somehow in August then revived for the last 2-3 Years in September, It focuses on a conception of Real Life Politics becoming more and more dangerous and very serious. The game event instantly transforms you from a ceremonial leader into a Commander-In-Chief, The highest commanding position in a country's Armed Forces. The game host/hostess has furtherly explained here: https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=874170

WHAT COULD I DO?: Well, As explained in the details above, Factions is the ONLY entry into the event, Meaning your commands could only be activated IF you are in a region's Faction. Wise choices would be one of our own; "Rule Brittania" i think was last year's name? (It's been some months so please disregard that if I am wrong *Says Humourously*), Though if you are wanting to be with a number of nations worldwide the best choice would be the first 5 popular Factions listed in the red bar.

WILL THERE BE VISUAL GRAPHICS AS WE SEE IN VIDEO GAMES AND MOVIES?: No. Well, Yes And No. Yes if you are talking about through text, No if you are talking about through graphics; FPS (Frames Per Second).

ANY MUSIC TO REMAIN UNBORED?: Yes. Strategy Boss Music is the best could think of in terms of total NationStates' Nuclear War.

WHAT WOULD THE NAME BE?: Officially speaking, "N-Day 6", "Nuclear War VI", "N-Day VI"

WHAT IS THE COUNTDOWN?: Generally speaking, The countdown is ranged from 20th - 28th of September, So maybe a 10-day in-range, 28-day in-total countdown. If the countdown has expired after the initial countdown that would potentially mean that the event was either moved or cancelled or not updated at all.

And so I was right and it begins. Countdown officially COMMENCES.

N-Day Is Looming! God Save Us All!

Al-Andalus And Cordoba

Sainohind wrote:It's pretty good here what about you?

I'm doing well, I've been Re-watching some shows while playing Destiny 2 as of late.

There have been many steps taken by Our President to address climate change in order to achieve SainoHind's short term goal of reaching Top 5% of most eco-friendly nation on the planet:

• These are the key instructions given by the President to our The Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MoEFCC).

PROTECT AND RESTORE KEY ECOSYSTEMS

Respect for nature is fundamental. Governments must protect ecosystems key to the fight against climate change: rivers, wetlands, oceans, forests and mangroves absorb large quantities of carbon, slowing warming. Mangroves also serve as a barrier against tropical storms, and wetlands absorb excess water from floods, both extreme weather events exacerbated by climate change.

“Healing the natural system is the most feasible, realistic and fair option, since it would benefit humanity and all species,” said Florencia Ortúzar, an attorney with AIDA’s Climate Change Program. “In terms of conservation and restoration, we’re in a race against time, and we’re already beginning to witness alarming natural phenomena, like forests so degraded they’re losing their ability to absorb carbon.” 

2. SUPPORT SMALL AGRICULTURAL PRODUCERS

According to the FAO, the meat industry is responsible for 15 to 18 percent of all greenhouse gas emissions, exceeding even those of the transportation sector. In addition, it is the most significant source of water use and contamination in the world. Today, 80 percent of all agricultural production goes toward feeding animals not people. The expansion of land for livestock, and the crops to feed them, is the most significant cause of deforestation in the Amazon.

Governments can make a difference by supporting small local producers who, unlike large factory farms, employ sustainable practices, care about land restoration, benefit nearby communities, and make animals and crops more resilient to climate change. It’s less about everybody becoming vegetarians, but more about supporting those who produce our food with a respect for nature.

3. PROMOTE GREEN ENERGY

Thirty-five percent of all global emissions come from energy production. But as countries bet on more development, they’re also betting on more energy production. But as countries bet on more development, they’re also betting on more energy. 

While thermoelectric and hydroelectric energies were long considered the cheapest options, technological developments have allowed us to find better, cheaper, more efficient alternatives. With proper long-term planning, nations can avoid old climate-aggravating energy sources (hydropower is not green) and opt for small wind, solar, geothermal, oceanic and other projects that adapt to a place’s unique characteristics.

“When thinking about energy, it’s best to bet on a diversified matrix, prioritizing projects that are close to places where people need energy, saving on losses and infrastructure,” Ortúzar explained. “We must give absolute priority to the protection of nature. Every action, public policy, or strategy should be analyzed with nature in mind, and the production of energy is a good starting point.” 

4. COMBAT SHORT-LIVED CLIMATE POLLUTANTS

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the most infamous greenhouse gas. Since it remains in the atmosphere for centuries (even millennia), even if we stopped all its emissions sources today, the effects of climate change would continue. The good news is that other contaminants exist that contribute to climate change and only last a few days or years in the atmosphere. They’re known as short-lived climate pollutants, and they’re responsible for 30 to 45 percent of the emissions that cause global warming.

These pollutants include black carbon (soot), methane, ozone, and the hydro fluorocarbons found in refrigerants. Their effective control, through national policies and regulations, could accelerate the fight against climate change in the short term. In addition, because they cause serious air pollution, measures to mitigate them would directly benefit human health. 

5. BET ON ADAPTATION, NOT JUST MITIGATION

In the fight against climate change, work aimed at reducing emissions, stopping their effects and diminishing future consequences is known as mitigation. It is important. However, some communities are already experiencing tragic consequences due to changes in climate over a short period of time. So we also must act to prevent catastrophes, increase resilience, and reduce vulnerability, which is known as adaptation.

Projects to mitigate emissions are more attractive financially than those designed for adaptation, which are generally focused on the most vulnerable communities. But it is important to give adaptation the significance it deserves in recognition of the fact that the impacts of climate change are already a grave reality for many.

At this year’s COP, representatives are discussing a “loss and damage” mechanism, referring to the compensation that developed countries – the main causes of climate change – must make to developing countries, which suffer significant losses due to adverse climate effects, Ortúzar explained. Our governments must support these discussions and commit to the effective use of resources, so all the world’s people can be better prepared for, and help to prevent, greater changes to our climate.

[nation=long]Lunayria[/nation] is a signatory to the international climate treaty, and has removed all fossil fuel power stations.

Lunayria has considered and implemented the following measures:

Wind Power has been considered but due to the City of The Lost's Landscape being mainly Skyscrapers and other high rise buildings this was not possible.

Most buildings have Solar panels on them one way or another, there were many solar farms in the outer areas of Lunayria but the near constant conflicts have all but destroyed them.

Nuclear Power is the most favoured in Lunayria and is highly protected with only those most loyal to the regime having access and knowledge of them. All of the active Nuclear Facilities and Uranium mining operations are solely run by the Military and The Happy Citizens Committee.

Though not in the list of Lunaryia's polices the public are banned from owning and driving Cars, Motorcycles etc. Citizens instead have to use Bicycles, buses or trains; the latter two either run on just electricity or some form of biofuel. All remaining fossil fuels left in Lunayria have been designated a Military resource and are illegal for the public to own.

The Military and The Happy Citizens Committee are the only organisations left that use Fossil fuels, while efforts have been made to change this they have been...uneventful....

Saint Arsenio, The Free Northern Isles, Sainohind, Jewish Sealand

The government of Jewish Sealand is taking many measures to address climate change. The most important issue the government is trying to solve is the amount of carbon emissions that our country generates. The goal of our government is to make Jewish Sealand one of the most clean and eco-friendly nations in the Empire of Great Britain.

The first plan of the government to achieve this goal is to replace the national fossil fuel power station with wind turbines by the end of 2030. In addition to replacing the national power station, the government will also be incentivizing its citizens to buy solar panels. Once this plan is complete, the Confederacy of Jewish Sealand will rely exclusively on ‘green energy’.

In addition to completely switching to green energy sources, the government also has a second plan, to reduce carbon emissions. This plan involves reducing the amount of people that need to use their cars for their daily life. To achieve this the government is investing money in public transportation to make it more useful and reliable. For example, public buses will have stops in food markets and hospitals. The government also plans to incentivize the public to buy bicycles, by building more bike lanes and safe bicycle parking stations. The government will also add biking as a sport in all public schools, so students become accustomed to riding bikes.

When these plans are complete, the Confederacy of Jewish Sealand will become one of the most carbon neutral nations in the Empire.

I really like the idea of introducing Biking as a Sport in school. It will help in improving both health of citizens and eco-friendliness. Very Productive thought.

Thank you for the compliment, your Majesty Sainohind. I too liked your ideas for combating climate change.

Yes it is interesting. But once your nation gets struck by a 100% radiation is when it can become frustrating as you would be automatically eliminated from the event. This is why i said "Though if you are wanting to be with a number of nations worldwide the best choice would be the first 5 popular Factions listed in the red bar." as many nations would shield your nation from an incoming missile. The top 5 ranks are the ones who are claimed 'Superpower' as they have nations that would quickly turn into subjects in the Faction. You especially would want to make allies with other nations during N-Day to prevent an unexpected strike by multiple other nations from an opponent faction that whatever in-rank faction you are in. Most factions usually display their opponent faction they are at war at current in their Faction's Factbook. You should also know Factions are like regions so the total damage part (Factbook's Radiation) in the Faction isn't as important, But the highest score is what keeps the Factbook from falling from 1st place to 10th place.

Greetings, fellow citizens of the Empire! I hope that all of you are having a great day.

This is just a gentle reminder for every nation in the region, who is in the World Assembly, to endorse my nation. Yes, I am the legal World Assembly Delegate in this region, but I can't represent the region in the World Assembly as long as I don't have the most endorsements in this region. Again, if you did it already, I am thanking you for that.

Your frustration is understandable and the lack of an endorsement cap in regional law just means we can’t enforce anything on anyone. But we can still request it. It is then their discretion to abide by the request or not. The WA Delegate is a very important security position and must be secured to a person that was legally nominated and vetted by our Esteemed House of Lords to know that the candidate is deserving of the trust that comes with the position. It’s an ex officio member of our defence council, and gets executive authority should the founder CTE. I was just gone for 4-5 days, should that have aligned with the time frame for the founder to CTE the WA delegate would have quite a bit of control over the region. In addition to that the regional law is to appoint the position of Delegate itself not to work with the delegate on proposals.

I understand that The Free Northern Isles was elected to become the region's WA Delegate, and that they needed to be the nation with most endorsements, but in my opinion Sainohind should have been consulted first.

Before any decision was made in the Parliament, I too wanted to withdraw my endorsement to SainoHind just so The Free Northern Isles could become the Empire's delagate, but hesitated because I didn't want to penalise them. Instead I wrote several telegrams to various members of the region, so they would endorse The Free Northern Isles, to no avail.

Finally, even though I must respect the decision of the Parliament and understand it was made for the best interests of the Empire, this decision was unfair to SainoHind and I can understand their frustation.

Thank you for your attempted help in this matter. It is also not a decision I necessarily wanted to make. But the requests to remove endorsements and the new endo cap law being debated (now in the Lords with some amendments being considered), it’s a necessary step.

Lunayria, Saint Arsenio, The Hinterplace, Jewish Sealand

If everyone would look at the region’s history tab, you will find that The Free Northern Isles was WAD before SainoHind. People talk about how it’s unfair to SainoHind, but really this entire time it’s been unfair to The Free Northern Isles, who hasn’t been able to do his job effectively.

I will reiterate, it is in the number of endorsements I have that determines the number of votes I get: the higher the number of endorsements, the more we will be heard in the World Assembly. If you also have concerns, you could also approach my office and give your concerns there.

As the International stage on NationStates prepares for the worst, Now is the time to reflect. In exactly less than 10 hours the world on NationStates and it's peace will be radioactive as we know it. As Presidents, Prime Ministers, Kings, Queens, Emperors, Empresses, Dictators, Lords of medieval nations and regions, Ladies of medieval empires, and so many more Leaders around the virtual world prepare to become Commander-In-Chiefs with 24 hours or more, To gather around with commoners; As commoners and to Unite in alliance as one union against an enemy striking force to eliminate the process of being involved in the event. As the Patriotic display of the Empire, in the words of Prime Minister Winston Churchill who told these words to the world from what it thought would be the most devastating war in world history; World War II. "We Shall Go On To The End, We Shall Fight In France, We Shall Fight On The Seas And Oceans, We Shall Fight With Growing Confidence And Growing Strength In The Air, We Shall Defend Our Island, Whatever The Cost May Be. We Shall Fight On The Beaches, We Shall Fight On The Landing Grounds, We Shall Fight In The Fields And In The Streets, We Shall Fight In The Hills; We Shall Never Surrender!"

I upload the picture there. When it's done, I select BBCode Thumbnail Linked. I get the url below, then paste it in the factbook. Finally, remove the [url] and [/url] on both sides.

A little over 2 hours until N-Day commences (at the time of the beginning of me writing this message).

The National Emergency Alert System will sound every 30 minutes for 5 minutes until the beginning of N-Day. Saint Arsenians across the kingdom are ending preparations (which began immediately after the announcement of the impending N-Day). High-ranking government officials, including His Majesty, Prime Minister Thomas, Deputy Prime Minister Thompson, and Defense Minister Schumer, have gathered in a secure, undisclosed location where orders will be carried out until N-Day has ended.

Other members of the royal family have been temporarily moved out of Delaney Palace to a separate, secure, undisclosed location at the request of His Majesty.

50 Minutes to the War!!

Saint Arsenio

COMPANIONS!

One more year, we are gathered here in order to ensure our own survival! It is only a matter of time until the nuclear alarms of our countries start to ring and our bunkers begin to be flooded.

BUT WE HAVE NOTHING TO FEAR!

With our coordination, our intelligence, OUR STRENGHT, WE WILL BE ABLE TO SURF THROUGH THIS WAVE OF CHAOS THAT IS ABOUT TO SURGE.

SO, EVERYONE.

LET'S GET READY FOR TROUBLE!

TODAY WILL BE THE DAY!

When the skies are filled by the great birds of war, and the lands are green of uranium,

WILL BE THE DAY WHERE WE RISE!

NATIONS SHALL BE NUKED!

SHIELDS SHALL BE SPLINTERED!

A NUKE DAY, A RED DAY, 'ERE THE SUN RISES!!!

The telegraph beeps as a message is sent out to the Empire Of Great Britain.

My Fellow Britons, I must keep this brief as I am currently bunkered at Kensington Palace, where I shall coordinate my efforts against this nuclear devastation.

Hello everyone

The Hinterplace, Castelsareillan

TRANSCRIPT OF HIS MAJESTY’S SPEECH TO THE NATION CONCERNING HIS JUBILEE:

My Subjects, My Friends current and former, and all those that reside or have resided in this Empire of Great Britain;

I pen this address to all of you. Whether you are still here or not, you have likely made a mark on this still flowering and growing community. And I thank you for that.

One year, one month, and six days. I have had the utmost honour to sit atop this grandiose and sometimes scary throne. But it hasn’t been all scary. It’s been fun interacting with each and every one of you. From the newcomers of Sarah and Eliza and SanioHind to those who have been here since the beginning of my rule. My Son Victor, my Sister Elizabeth, My close Friends Minerva, James, and more.

While I try to keep Honours Lists as far apart as possible, I feel it is only fair to honour those who have been instrumental in assisting with my reign:

I would First like to bestow upon Her Royal Highness the Princess Royal, the position of Lady of the Garter in the Most Noble Order of the Garter for her faithfulness, stalwart advice, and the rare ability to keep myself in check amongst the numerous other services to the realm.

I would like to secondly bestow upon Her Ladyship the titles of Marchioness of Hamilton and Duchess of Manitoba for, much like the PR, her faithfulness, stalwart advice, and the rare ability to keep myself in check, in addition to outstanding service in the Lords with election reform that she now manages, and unparalleled judicial skill, knowledge and experience.

I would also like to bestow upon the Rt Hon Baronet of Ripon the Barony of Harrogate for his leadership in a crucial Period of the Empire’s history

I would like to finally bestow upon the Speaker of the House of Commons, the position of Knight Commander in the Most Honourable Order of the Bath for his persistency and dedicated service to the realm

Long live the King!

Statement From Prime Minister of Menorica on the Ending of N-Day 6:

As we have come to a close, I begin to see peace and memories form in the Forums section. I want to wish my congratulations to Crabs of Apocalypse faction for such an extraordinary amount of winning, Half of NationStates favored The Potato Alliance on winning, Instead we were immediately devastated on the events of another Empire rising above, Even though The Potato Alliance lost severely, The Empire of Great Britain has won, The Royal Family and His Majesty's Government having managed to become a superpower of their own. While we say peace has been restored, That is for now? As we loom for Autumn and October we begin to wounder, "Is it over?" While nations are recovering there could be some ultimate sacrifices, Z-Day is the follow-up of N-Day, Z as in Zombie, This event is even more devastating as it kills your remaining virtual in-event economy and turns them into Zombies. Z-Day schedule is usually on Halloween, 31st of October. Thank You all for participating in this once-in-a-lifetime annual event. And a warm congratulations to the Empire of Great Britain on it's victory.
