Region: England

History

With the software I'm using, the channel islands aren't an option. The Isle of Mann is available, but was left out to fit accuracy of the Kingdom of England. Do you wish for me to make changes towards it?

I know its not technically historic but Avon would be ideal. If not, Somerset please.

Yes please....because whomever is lord of the isle of man is lord of man....its too good a word play to ignore 🙂

The Folly

A little bit of local history for those younger nations who haven't been here quite so long as us crumbling ancient relics... All this talk of the new regional map reminded me that I have a capture of our old map, showing how things stood at the commencement of "The Great Banana Rush" in early 2008. An era of regional roleplay that I GM'd, launched off the back of the removal of a disgraced nation (the broken lands surrounding the "Sea of Regret" were all that remained after the IC destruction of their section of the map) that over the course of the year lead to a massive alien invasion by interstellar chimps called the Symyano. Great times, but a pity that I didn't keep a record of it all (though my own elements of it are still referenced in my factbook). :)

This old map is very nice. If you put it in a factbook, we can have it pinned to the WFE as well, alongside the new one. Don't worry, it isn't your fault. NationStates doesn't warn people that they need to backup all their creative output elsewhere, if they want to keep it. Just remember if you ever GM again, that you can't rely on nationstates.net How about your mates in the map, any of them still around?

Checked the stats and you've been playing this region since 2008? Perhaps the stats dont go back further. You're an ancient oak in England region! Amazing that you've played for so long. I had a nation decades ago but I've forgotten what it was called. Perhaps with you being around that long, you should be given an honorary Lordship title. This is England, after all :)

Reminder to everyone else to claim a Historic county in England for the regional map if they so wish!

7 counties are claimed thus far: Lincolnshire, Rutland, Northamptonshire, Derbyshire, Oxfordshire, Sussex, and Somerset/Avon. The first three were claimed by our Market Deeping so I'll hold on to them for a time in case he shows up again.

Welcome to England, you catch us at a time of renewal.

As othres have said we where recently invaded and the region took a while to get back into the hands of its residents.

If i could ask you to join thev world assembly and endorse the regional officers....it is to help in case of another invasion.

England is generally a very quiet region, our numbers are inflated with defenders whom will be moving on now as we have finally got rid of all invading nations.

The rmb has become a little more active since the invasion and i encourage you to use it to ask for help and advice.

Welcome and enjoy your time here.

We had an off-site regional forum back in the day and it disappeared when whoever maintained it felt they no longer needed to. If I'd known it was going I would have found a way to archive the roleplay material purely for the region's historical record. Most of those old nations ceased to exist long ago. The only one who I'd have thought likely to still be in the game moved to the region of Canada when this one began to become considerably less active, but a quick search reveals that even he ceased to exist a few months ago.

Rhanukhan was founded in 2004 (though it's named in honour of a fictional realm I created in my childhood games many years before) and moved to England in '06 or '07, having been the only surviving country of two previous regions. I let it lapse once, so that '08 date will have been my triumphant return. :)

The reason the English drink so much tea is a legacy of our abolition of slavery. Coffee plantations were largely slave laborers. The abolishement of slavery by England before the rest of the world meant coffee was not available. So we switched to Tea for our caffeine fix. Although I would not want to be around for the switch where the delay between coffee imports ending and tea arriving happened. Must have been a pretty grumpy population!

Other nations that drink coffee, France or the USA for example, do so as they kept slavery for far longer than England did.

Each cup of tea is a monument to the legacy of civil rights in England. Tell the yanks and French that next time they attempt to mock our tea drinking habits...

And congratulations, Rhanukhan!

If you look at residency on the board you will see im somewhere in 30s 0r even lower.

Most nations before me seem to have come to England to sort of retire. The rmb was very quiet, i believe i had two endorsements and i was regional delegate.

Thats the reason we where invaded easily....thats why we need to be more active

Isle Of Westland, Fish And Chip Lovers

Okay, Market Deeping is a lost cause apparently. As such, Lincolnshire, Rutland, Northamptonshire are now officially up for grabs on our regional map (see factbook near top).

Get 'em while they're hot!

We should try running an event to be more active. An amateur football cup in the guise of the FA cup? It may even draw in a few new active nations

I had one long ago where I ran a fun experiment - 'tis still referenced in my factbook under the descriptions of the provinces...

Okhtis - Most famous for its time as a grand social experiment in which a leading group of scientists ran the province based solely on the decisions of a magic 8-ball. The surprising success of the temporary nation swiftly lead to the experiment being quietly shut down before Rhanukhani citizens got any ideas about a better form of government. (I see that it can still be found in the Boneyard - https://www.nationstates.net/page=boneyard?nation=magic%208-ball)

And while I'm here I wonder if I might stake a claim to God's Own County on the new regional map. The original map of Rhanukhan was superimposed on my blessed home of Yorkshire (the provincial capitals all relate to real locations) before I had to alter it to fit my plot on England's old regional map when I moved here.

Jolly good, any particular Riding?

The old Rhanukhan used all of Yorkshire, but that would be a cheekily colossal territory methinks. ;P The East Riding is probably the one that I could adapt the provinces into the easiest (and also the one I happened to be born in so it has that going for it too).

Is it cool if I join back with you all? I'm really sorry I left. In all honesty, i freaked because i felt like I had too much on my plate when I took on the regional map, and the discord. My finals have also been a little stressful for me too. But I really am sorry for leaving.

I for one am willing to welcome you back, as long as you don't feel like you're wasting your time again. I'll carry on with the map, don't worry about the discord. Your focus should be on your finals anyway so take it easy - have a cup of tea.

You write well, it's just that the premise for the dispatch doesn't exist. The connection between the real Scotland and England, and people who spend their time on nationstates moving into random regions to get delegacies is : nil. So your talent is wasted on such a subject. But you definitely have talent and I hope you get around to writing about something interesting and fun.

I disagree. I think it was fun, this region is England and that means some things, one of those being friendly rivalry with our Celtic neighbors and I think the article demonstrates that perfectly and with good humour.

What would; in your opinion, be a subject worth an article like this?

Not sure if you saw the invasion or not. Yes we had a lot of nations from various raider regions...think it numbered well over 130 at o e point, and yes its true they had no Scotish roots.

But the changes they wrought to the region factbook and entry all made it clear it was a Scotish invasion of England...the saltaire of St Andrew replaced the cross of St George....there was talk of liberating the region from the tyranny of Westminster and London.

The great Scottish invasion of 2022 is a great myth that we will use to help pull the region hopefully together more....like all good myths scratch the surface and tarnish appears....but it does its job as a story to build heroic deeds and action upon as we drink our tea and chat about the great thing that have passed and those yet to come

Isle Of Westland

I do think an article on the importance of Tea in the region...its history and how recently it helped steady the moral of the region during the " Great invasion of 2022 "

Just a thought 🤔🙂

Go back a few pages in the rmb and you'll see. The region was taken over by Scots, so the article is about that. Its from my own memory of it.

That's ok, it doesn't matter.

I could have expressed it more clearly. Yes, sure, there was a lot of stereotypical pseudo blah blah about Scotland. And just recently when raiders raided Christmas, they pretended to celebrate a muslim holiday, Eid. See the pattern? Raiders post anything, whatever, to get some sort of reaction on the internet. It has nothing to do with Scots or muslims or anybody. It's random and empty of meaning.

As Protector of the Queen's Trees, I will be making two new factbooks for the region. The first will be a greenness index ranking all nations in the region on their level of greenness. The second will be a national parks listing. In this, will be a catalog of all the region's national parks listed by individual nations. The national parks submitted can be real or made-up.

I'll have a google form posted in a pinned dispatch. I'm not sure if i currently have the powers to do so, but I'll check. I'll also get started on the regional greenness index, which i hope to update monthly. Greenness index will be primarily gameplay-based, while the national park catalog will be primarily RP-based.

Sent you some details

One other thing, applications will only be taken through the google form. Will upload in a second.

Update: The form is now open! Fill them out to your heart's desire! Will upload the finished results once I've gathered a sizeable amount of submissions from all of you. Cheers!

Can I make a suggestion to add a court system? Just so if (and when) our nation does grow, we have a way to put people on trial if needed? I would be willing to figure out the logistics behind everything. It's just a sugestion

If you work on it, bring the idea to us we will have a poll in the region and see if nations agree with it, or think it needs amendments.

Yes, you need to tell me what Historic county you wish to occupy on the map.

Gloucestershire, please.

The first will be a greenness index ranking all nations in the region on their level of greenness. The second will be a national parks listing. In this, will be a catalog of all the region's national parks listed by individual nations. The national parks submitted can be real or made-up.

I like it. Are fantasy elements ok?

ENGLAND,

a newer region here in NationStates

Which method of sending telegrams do you use? Yes, it's a good idea to have a short telegram. Not verbose as some are. Just the line about England being a newer region isn't accurate, so probably not needed.

I do manual. It's quick

do they have to be real parks? no. but they are national parks, so things like zoos or restaurants or any other kind of development won't fit in a place designed to habituate wildlife as it is in nature.

i'd prefer if it was based in reality, but i'll make some allowances.

Welcome The Kingdom of Wesangeln and The Kingdom of The Granbic Mountains to England! Drop in the RMB and say hello if you like.

You can also pick a Historic county to occupy on our regional map and submit a national park, both found in the Factbook entries above.
