If something so simple is that expensive in your country, there's something wrong with your economy.
Not if it's a tourist trap...

These are the best mints you will have had in your life. They taste of capitalism and chocolate.
Hi new member
Welcome to the Thunderdome! Now with 100% more capitalism.

The thunder is generated by Fortune 500 companies, and the dome is supplied by national sport associations

How much is that in scalps? I don't have many right now, but I know where to find some.
*Stares hungrily at Atkemri's long, golden locks*
It is 7 Scalps and stop staring at my majestic hair.
*Majestically flips hair*
I reckon I can sell that scalp for a pretty price.
*Licks rusty blade*

Hello all, new member here, playing the game for the first time.

Welcome to NS and Lands End.

Welcome to a world of retards.

Well... I wouldn't say retarded, I'd say stupid, I'm stupid for it taking me way to long to notice something simple (Not always, obviously).
United Alliance Of Alexandria
Define something simple.
Good day, mates.
Good day indeed.
Never.
When will your next election be?
The next BoD election will be in November, CEO election will be in February.
Guys, this is called flame baiting. Don't do it, don't respond to it. It's actually against the NS rules and is reportable if I remember correctly. It also looks very bad when some new player comes along and what's the last message on our RMB? Flame bait.

SRRY JUST A QUESTION.
United Alliance Of Alexandria
Why are you posting in all caps? And why did you arrive from a region called the invaders? Are you a raider Putin Landia.
United Alliance Of Alexandria, Sharlin
BECAUSE MY CAPS BUTTON IS BROKEN.NO I LITERALLY STARTED THE GAME 20 MINS AGO AN IT WAS THE FIRST INV THERE.
Okay if you say so.*Stares at suspiciously.*
Sharlin
Hi guys, I'm a totally new player and would like some help, can you tell me where to start?
You can start with anything. If you want to focus on your nation and issues go ahead. You want to Roleplay with your nation and write factbooks go ahead. You really can do whatever you like as long as it follows the rules.
United Alliance Of Alexandria, Sharlin
If you look in the World Factbook Entry (WFE), you will see a few dispatches at the very bottom. There should be one titled Information Center [LE]. That should tell you most of what you need to know. After that, it's your choice.
United Alliance Of Alexandria
What kind of government are you guys trying to make? I'm trying to make a right wing authoritarian government, as evidenced by my name.
Isollis
I'm trying to make whatever my decisions lead me to.
I'm trying to be a capitalist theocracy kind of thing
How did you decide to start off as?
It's a bit vague to me, but I think I started off as conservative.
I don't care about my government. I'm just working on keeping my economy from falling below frightening.
United Alliance Of Alexandria
The economy aspect is interesting, I have no idea how but I'm 2nd in our region and the top 1% in the whole game for trout fishing.
once econ reaches 100 it shouldnt go down
There has been a lot of response to the recent poll.

Greetings to all,
The Federal Council of Nordhpadhan invites You and your citizens to our 1st Rock'n Roll Festival without drugs.
We think that it could be also the occasion to visit the beautiful mountains, the sea and the lakes of Nordhpadhan.
Our beautiful environment, our exquisite foods and our cultural heritages shall welcome You.
Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown.
Every year the Capitol city of Nordhpadhan hosts the Grand Prix of Formula One. The streets of our City become the race tracks as Monaco. You can enjoy to drive on our roads as a Formula One pilot, but at 20 mph.
The geography of Nordhpadhan is a mountainous and marine country. We are well known for the Alps in the south and south east and for the Padhan Sea in the south west. North of the Alps, the Nordhpadhan Plateau runs along the east–west axis of the country. Most of the population of Nordhpadhan lives on the rolling hills and plains of the plateau. The smaller Grau Mountains are located on the north west side of the plateau. Much of the northern border follows the Blue river. The eastern border is drawn through Lake Bhossian. A portion of the south border is drawn through Lake Wodhan. In the south the large and beatiful Gulf of Northpadhan with the Padhan Sea.
Enjoy the touristic country of Northpadhan.

I have recieved two repeat issues. Is that supposed to happen?
Compulsory Consumerist State or Capitalist Paradise both work fairly well for what I'm doing, but not necessarily what I'm going for. Trying to imitate the corporation in the Lego flashgames Junkbot and Junkbot: Undercover. For a very terrible comparison some combination between Aperture Science and Big Brother. Essentially performing immoral or morally questionable scientific research and product manufacturing.
Isollis, Nordhpadhan, Sharlin
I've had the same issue four times before. I don't think it's supposed to happen, but I guess the nation hasn't changed enough for new issues? No idea.
My nation has definitely changed. I am a drastically different nation from the last time I had the issue.
Isollis, Sharlin
Don't double post. Please.
For some reason when I became a dictator for life my economy fell...
Lol I had an issue just now that ended with me making mandatory grammar laws.
United Alliance Of Alexandria
Issues in this game do tend to be pretty funny.

after some time you will start receiving issues you have gotten before, it is supposed to happen.

"1 minute ago: Coruloma Alt For Fun arrived from The Pacific. "
No. Bad Coruloma.
I made that just in case I ever somehow lost access to this one and needed a fallback. If alts aren't allowed here I'll get it out just say so.
Capitalist Piggys, Isollis
Oh okay, I'll just move it to one of those then. Thanks for letting me know!

PSA: Cap isn't dead....yet. (Maybe she is, but more than likely she is)
Archuria Centauri, Clis, Sharlin
Oh hey my puppet region was mentioned.
The Great Lion, Clis
Isollis, Clis, Sharlin
It's nice to know that Cap isn't necessarily dead.
Capitalist Piggys, Clis, Sharlin
I can see it now, headlines reading [I]"Just in: Cap is pronounced dead, cause of death of death is believed to be by fire. Similar to the fire she had caused in Lands End not too long ago."[/I]
Clis, Sharlin
My favorite part is "cause of death of death". Brilliant.
Cap, why aren't you on discord ;-;
Clis
Post self-deleted by Capitalist Piggys.
You need to get a hybrid "How to Read and Write" book.
You should get on the region's discord. It's kinda boring without you
Clis, Sharlin
Oh oops, that of death wasn't suppose to there twice. Oh well, I guess it's time to put away my how to read books and get the how to write books out. And I am, but I'm not. 🤷♀️
Clis
Capitalist Piggys, Clis
Now it looks like I quoted something from after I posted. What're you doing, trying to make me double post?
Clis
Archuria Centauri, Unike, Capitalist Piggys, Clis
Nah, just trying to hide the fact I can't read or write. (dundundun corruption in the government)
Clis, Sharlin
When did we get to 178 nations? [nation=short]united_alliance_of_alexandria[/nation], did you do that? Whatever it was, keep doing it!
(If they are all puppets, someone or multiple someones will walk the plank.)
Archuria Centauri, Capitalist Piggys, Clis, Sharlin
Why not both? The RMB rocks but why hold yourself to one medium of communication? (plus that's how you get around double posting)
I knew it!
I don't know, [nation=short]Mercantana[/nation] makes an excellent point...
Isollis, Clis
Actually, I didn't sell them, I have them in a top secret location that is super far away in nice display cases.
Isollis, Clis
Display cases bought from Torranta since we have a monopoly in display cases. But what if display cases are a myth made up by Torranta to sell more display cases?
I figure they're black market display cases
Capitalist Piggys, Clis
Nah, I restored some furniture pieces and turned them into display cases.
Clis
Cap, how many times have I told you to stop stealing pens? You don't need this many pens. It's getting out of hand.
I've heard cap has over 2,300 stolen pens. And that number grows every week.
Clis
You're not my dad! Don't tell me what to do.
Bonnie Blue Republic, Isollis, Clis
Hi i'm an authoritarian capitalist could any of you shed some light on the various possibilities and activities I could enjoy in nationstates?
There is plenty to do on Nationstates. There's always the issues to keep you busy. And if that doesn't do it for you, we have a lovely regional government that you could get involved in. In addition, there's always raiding and defending.
And roleplaying if you're into that
Raiding and defending? How does that work? And I'm interested in participating in the regional govt
I have absolutely no clue how raiding and defending works other than constantly moving your WA membership around. And on the regional government thing, the BoD elections will not begin once more until November and CEO will begin in February.
Capitalist Piggys
Well, if you want to be involved in regional government, your first step is becoming a shareholder.
Once that's done, any shareholder can make bylaw proposals to the CLO.
You might also consider ambassadorship, which you can learn more about by talking to [nation=short+noflag]Torranta[/nation].

Good evening, one and all! How are you pine cones on this fine day. May your pines be ever green!
In response to the poll, it was probably when I stole August's fake office plant, hid his stapler, and stole all of the pens. I thought he would kill me. (luckily he didn't....[I]Or did he?[/I])

Hello! I am a new nation, thank you for letting me join!

The options on the poll seem to want me to do something but I don't know what.
The scariest thing I've ever done.
It was a grey day at sea.... Tranquil, quiet.... Too quiet....I told my scurvy Viking crew to row on, but be wary. All of a sudden, the hull shook. Not too much. Barely noticeable. I knew something was amiss. It shook again, almost indiscernible. A few minutes later, I had continued my going-ons, when I stopped in my tracks. "Great God of wonders, where are you now? It's Scilla!" I muttered under my breath. Louder, "SCILLA!" The crew went into pandemonium. Some jumped overboard just at the speaking of its name. At that moment a great explosion erupted from the water, the likes of which few have seen and lived to tell the tale. When the water settled, a great beast was revealed. A beast of many tentacles. It's teeth were swords, it's breath was heart-wrenching. When it roared, many of the crews' eardrums ruptured. I told myself we could fight it, but in my heart I knew we had but one choice. Run. "Row fer yer lives ye Lilly livered land-lubbers!" I bellowed. "Ye mis'rable excuse for a crew. Did I hire ye to be crab-meat for this hulkin' calamity?!" The crew began rowing with a fervor I had never seen before. The beast took pursuit. With each stroke it took, tsunamis were formed, and with each stroke we took, it got closer. Our efforts were futile. Eventually I gave up. I turned to my crew and said. "It's like in in those stories. Full of darkness and danger, they were. And sometimes, you didn't want to hear the end, because how could the end possibly be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was before so much bad had happened? Folk in those tales had many chances of turning back, only they didn't. I now know why. THERE IS STILL GOOD IN THIS WORLD, AND IT'S WORTH FIGHTING FOR! In the end, it's only a passing things, this shadow. All darkness must pass. AND WHEN THE SUN SHINES IT WILL SHINE OUT THE CLEARER. I see in your eyes the same fear that would take the heart of me! A day may come, when the strength of men fails, and we break all bonds of fellowship. A day may come, full of wargs and shattered shields when the age of men comes crashing down! But it is not this day! IT IS NOT THIS DAY! AND WITH ALL THAT YOU HOLD DEAR ON THIS GOOD EARTH, I BID YOU STAND AND FIGHT, MEN OF THE WEST!" A resounding cry shook through the crew, swords were shaken, hammers beaten. the hearts of the crew were inspired and reinforced with a strength they had never felt before. Their minds were stricken with a desire they had never conceived before. It was the strength of a stout heart, the strength of the will to live, and it was the desire for bloodshed, and to see the Scilla's terrible head on a pike. Unfortunately, in the time that I was giving my monologue, the beast had approached and was upon us! We had no time to prepare, but I knew what to do. I had the harpoons topped with explosives and loaded into the cannons. "Fire!" I commanded, and a barrage of cannon fire bombarded the beast. The harpoons launched at high speeds from the cannons sunk deep into the beast's flesh. The crew ran along the lines connected to the harpoons and started hacking away at Scilla's tentacles. Scilla did something I did not expect, however. I harpooned her to restrict her movement via the ropes attacked to the harpoons, but she started to pull on these ropes, drawing us closer to her. Once we were right up next to her, we gazed up into the vault of the sky and saw six great tentacles, each ten feet in diameter shooting straight down at us, penetrating the ship through and through. With her tentacles already inside the ship, she tore it to bits, decimating it. After that, what was left of my crew was stranded on driftwood, floating at the will of the ocean's currents. Scilla picked them off one by one, grabbing them by the leg and dragging them into their abyssal demise. I was the only one left, stranded on a piece of driftwood in the middle of the ocean. No food, no water. Only infinite uncertainty and death. Scilla had gone for now, but I knew she'd be back to finish the job. If I could survive even that long. As the sharks began to circle my piece of wood, I began to feel woozy. The last thing I saw as I began to black out, was a single yellow eye just beneath the surface of the water. Watching me. Also, a single tentacle, rising above the surface towards my ankle. I never woke up.

Yes those are the options. But what do they want me to do?
