Unfortunately, our Leader Clara Tomhouse has been found dead in her home, and our Human Rights Doctrine has been stolen, we've ruled out domestic terrorism, so it's an internation assassination. This act of violence requires a complete removal of all our ambassadors to investigate, and if evidence comes out that you perpetrated this act, we might have to cease political ties. Good day

Not always, i think the issues' can be kind of biased. I found out that installing cameras in public places lowers safety. Like wut? Sometimes giving your people more freedom leads to more safety. But hey, it's just a game... though interesting one.

The people of Saint Sharis know they have the protection of the Goddess, and I think that's more important than teaching the populace nonsense like so-called "evolution" or "algebra".

Antarctican Immagrants wrote:Look at me, my education budget is higher than my defense budget, unlike "other" countries who spend almost half of their budget on defense.

Technically my government (what's left of it after I dissolved it) spends next to nothing on defense, only 0.000429% of my nation's total budget.

That said, my privately owed arms manufacturing sector massively outweighs our public education spending, so...

I just got a hilarious issue on which there are some rebels making terror movies, while using our weapons. The comments by your advisors are especially entertaining.

Now that I have some free time again, I would like to remind you all that being a shareholder in Land's End entitles you to claim an area of land on the regional map.

Betances wrote:Hi, new player here. Been in Land's End for about 2 weeks now. What is the purpose of endorsing and how does it affect or influence a Nation?

Yes, I recommend endorsing every nation you can in our region

Betances wrote:Hi, new player here. Been in Land's End for about 2 weeks now. What is the purpose of endorsing and how does it affect or influence a Nation?

Endorsing WA Members also their, and in turn, the region's influence numbers. This is a bit more important that other stats as it increases our security as a region on the R/D side of things, as well as making it harder for someone to come in and banject members. On top of that, if you notice the Regional Power under the WFE, that distinction is made by the influence in the region. This doesn't even get into interregional affairs and how higher influence, endorsement counts, and such make us look better to other regions and give us more voting power in the WA as well.

It is highly recommended for everyone to endorse the other WA members in the region. You should get a telegram from BBR telling you all about this and a list of people to endorse in the next few days.

Also, welcome to NS and LE! Super happy to have you here!

Thank you beforehand.

Wanted to thank The Colony of South-Central Rhodesia for the idea for the poll! Sadly, I had to shorten the options down because of character limits so here are the full options:

WHERE WOULD BE YOUR PERFECT HOLIDAY:

A) a small, tropical island resort in the Maldives with your best friends, perfect hot weather and seaplane charter to any distant off shore reef for snorkeling.

B) a Safari through the Serengeti National Park in Tanzania, camping in luxury tents with BBQs under the stars & a full bar - also an option to climb Mt Kilimanjaro, the worlds 4th highest peak.

C) a cabin on the Orient Express through France, Switzerland, Austria & onwards to Turkey in beautiful European summer. You have your own butler & a choice of off train excursions.

D) a private chartered mega yacht, fully staffed, departing southern Argentina, for a trip to Antarctica where you will have the option of journeying to the south pole to have a dinner under the 'southern lights' - the aurora australis

Please go vote on the new poll and let me know if there are polls you want me to try out.

PS: Is there a way to tag a person in the comments?

I've read a lot in a few messages and notifications about shares and economists in the game...

So, as an actual shareholder IRL this really got my interest. Is there an actual stock market or some sort of market where we can trade stocks and such in this game? If so, how can I join?

The card market???? Idk

I am okay with my country- Czech. I like when i can be at garden which i help develop. My mum also got bees, I am allergic to them, but it is okay, at least there is more of flowers! And i dont really remain in contact with my friends, I am okay with my family. It is nice to be able to relax in your garden, drink tea, listen to birds and read. Much better than parks in cities, at garden you have some discreetness. Nice question, though!

Yes, but being a member allows me to endorse people in Land's End, which in turn increases regional power. The WA resolutions don't have much of an impact on your nation's stats anyway so it's not that big of a sacrifice, but I'll still do what I can to minimize it, as I said, out of principle.

Thanks for explaining!

Also, people tend to talk a lot about war here.... how does it work?

Does one declare and go to war individually or does one need to belong to a Region and then in turn attack members of another region?

As both the most authoritarian nation in the region and the one with the most advanced law enforcement, you can take it from me, it really does work. If anyone so much as thinks about looking at our glorious Goddess the wrong way, we'll know. Zero terrorist attacks in Saint Sharis. You just can't argue with results.

I understand that nuclear weapons dont have to be used, but used just as threat, but my opinion remains: killing someone without seeing him has nothing to do with courage. But it shouldnt be forgotten that you need some bravery in order to do even unpopular decisions. Also, i dont know how much in reality, but in NS it doesnt punish you much for not having nuclear arsenal.

Agreed, some of issue resolutions are biased. I installed cameras at public spaces, and it paradoxically dropped safety. But as a game, it is still amusing. Btw, sometimes i don't know if the players do roleplay very good or if are they crazy. Also, what is your secret to good agriculture? Slavery or good tractors?

Also, funny to see that my nation has prohibited smoking, but buying cannabis is legal. I don't have idea if is it forbidden to smoke cannabis, but i guess it is problem of someone's else.

I used to have fairly bad agriculture, I'm not entirely sure why it skyrocketed like that. It might be a byproduct of my decision to start focusing on improving my nation's environment. That or slavery, I can't rule that out as a factor. Speaking of which, the only reason my nation allows slavery is because of an issue regarding prison labour, which NS considers as such. Seems a bit excesive to me but whatever, I'm rolling with it.

And I've definitely seen a few people whose roleplaying ambitions cross into borderline insanity. Kinda like those method actors who end up going all loony.
