Region: Libertatem
Also, Hermesgrad, you do realize that your vote doesn't count at present due to your not being a citizen?
You're eligible, but that doesn't make you automatically count as one.
Oh and I just hit 6 billion population. Yay me.
My government is so corrupt that it resembles a post-Communist Eastern European country... Oh wait, it is.
do i have to re apply for citizenship? i sent it like 30 days ago when i arrived. but then i discovered that you have to be here 10 days before you can apply

What would make you think you would get citizenship automatically when you become eligible?
We have an application for a reason.
I love over production. You go in buy what you want and get out. It's way better them the USSR where you had to wait in line for bread.
Give the Russians tortillas!
7 hours ago: Following new legislation in Muh Roads, all streets are privately owned toll roads.
Mission accomplished. I can leave NS now.
:p
If a crisis happened and it became harder to get food we have a giant stockpile thanks to overproduction.
I have decided that Rotgeheim will be my running mate for the presidency.
Hump what happened to your french buddy?
I don't know, but I miss him.
Np is tempting since he shares German blood...... I'm still voting humpy tho.
Ma bad. I don't have the greatest memory in the world.
Wooot! *applauds loudly*
Great, I'll send a follow-up TG to the region about that when I get back on my PC in eight hours or so. May I ask, as a fellow citizen, what is your campaign platform?
Liberty for our region and spreading our ideals by the tip of the sword to those who do not see liberty as we do.
Just got into the most heated internet debate on Facebook since Nelson Mandela died... My God, British people are so ignorant when it comes to guns. It was getting so intense I was actually thinking about calling in Liberosia for back-up!
It's crazy, if there were an invasion of Britain then a armed citizen millitant would be a good thing. It's one reason the us was never invaded in WW2.

That and two oceans
Huh, Amnesty International is sending Human right's Corps into Ferguson.
Fun.
Indeed. A Japanese general said, when pondering whether to invade the US, that they couldn't do it, because "There would be a rifle behind every blade of grass." America and Switzerland have not been invaded since the early 19th Century, both because of their strength and because of the fierce patriotism of their peoples.
Oh dayum, sh*it's gettin real now boi
Swiss patriotism? Eh?
They love their guns, and seem to love small government. That's a true patriot in my view.
I dunno. I don't see any Swiss waving around Swiss flags and going "Fvck yeah, Switzerland!"
Out of all the countries, Switzerland does however seem one of the most libertarian:

Okay, patriotism was the wrong word. What I mean is that both peoples love guns and love their way of life, and are willing to fiercely defend it.
A guaranteed minimum income would cost literally trillions of dollars to maintain, and goes above and beyond simple welfare as a means of wealth distribution. I prefer a negative income tax, or perhaps a broader voucher system.
Yea.
W...w...where are muh....
ROADS
My college lit teacher was a Brit... he moved to America for guns. Lol
Show me the money.

I would like to announce my withdrawal from this presidential race.
ISIS sickens me. They are perhaps the most vile excuses of human beings ever to burden the population of the world with their pathetic existence. Literally, when I see there little "battle standard" I do not feel fear or hatred. I feel like I physically want to vomit.
Have you thought this through? I will not recognize your concession unless you are sure.
Hillary Clinton said that they were beautiful people and had a beautiful culture. ISIS needs to be taken down.
Really. It is an issue that transcends petty politics. I really hate to just regurgitate the Tea Party, but our President is more concerned with pushing the Black agenda in Missouri than the threat of armed terrorists. The ISIS movement is growing in the US in all of the impressionable college liberals. It is a travesty to the American people to let this monstrosity grow until it is too late.
I am well clear of my own withdrawal from this presidential race. Congratulations Humpheria and to your new cabinet.
Are limited air strikes not enough or do you want boots on the ground?
The [B]Humpheria 2014*[/B] campaign recognizes your concession.
The Administration is operating under the idea that "We're going to help put we are not involved." At this point, that is illogical. ISIS is going to attack America. Period. Anyone that doesn't see that is blind. Their leaders are intelligent and ingenious recruiters. We can either wait for another 9/11 or we can end this before it gets too big. The time for boots on the ground was a long time ago.
Citizens of Libertatem:
I speak to you, humbly, today to accept the election of the Office of the President of Libertatem. I have been an active member of this government for a year next month. I have been proud to hold a position on the legislature for almost a consecutive (one term not served) year on said Board. I have guided the group to structure and activity. Implementing the election structure, the Seat organizational method, and installing parliamentary procedures in the voting process.
It is on this accomplished note that I leave the Board. I ascend the Office of the Presidency with the brightest hope of the future. I will go into more detail in my inauguration speech September First.
Yours Eternally, (Dictated but not read,)
President-Elect
Vice President
Chairman of the Board
Boardman
Citizen
Libertatem
If there was ever a justified war... it's this one.
The Tea Party should be tried for crimes against liberty and their leader's executed.
Anyone who says I have an authoritarian streak should be locked up in jail. >:3
Would the real Liberosia please stand up. Pev, I'm sure you've got more stats than me.
Also, people should endorse Humpheria now. We should have at least seven endos on Humph by tommorow.
I'm still keeping that secondary region immune from raids.
Everyone who is usually inactive or is allergic to raiding.
Yeah, I'm just trying to keep those endorsements up to make the raiding a bit more difficult. The Black Riders work with a team of five.
TBR can burn in hell.
Im, in real life, working on USAF enlistment. And a year from now I could find myself in Iraq. Naturally my feelings on the matter are... conflicted. (Also, Finland?)
because ive already sent an application, but when i sent it i wasn't eligible but now i am.
Congratulations to President-Elect Humpheria! It'll be exciting to see a new leader ascend the office come September the 1st. But only on that day. Transferring endorsements from me to him must be a delicate process and done before the update so that he becomes President at the constitutionally mandated time.
But until then, this President has 12 days to go. And I intend to use them to the best of my ability to shrink the size of government and strengthen our political system to be accountable to the people.
Me too, but I joined the marines
*shouts from a distance* Jarhead!
So Sin City Dame to Kill For is coming out, anyone else excited?
Indeed. In the next 11 days, the founder, president, and I will preparing the office for the transferring of power. Then, Pev can move from his nice office to the broom closet we keep Minerva in.
I informed our most prominent allies of the election results. I couldn't do all of them.
But the application you sent in was denied because you weren't eligible.
We've got the process for a reason, and if you want citizenship you need to go through it.
In fact, I even looked through my telegrams and I found one where I specifically told you that you would need to go read FRAUD then re-apply.
Ah, I was gonna move him to the wine cellar, but put all the barrels of wine into a different wine cellar. I had plans for that broom closet.
You're gonna be VP. You want the lowly Manager of Military Affairs in a wine cellar, we can do that. I just don't want him getting drunk before the strategy meetings.
No we should freeze pev to preserve his youth.
But he's the Terminator. He will never die.
Unless he slowly descends into a pit of lava, but you know.
Ok, so that's weird. NS++ is acting like it isn't installed, but it's still giving me the "NS++ Settings" link and the infinite-scroll RMB.
Welp, that's the second time this thing's broken this year. Time to go kill Afforess.
My nondescript Libertatem shipping company has been working on carbonite. This is doable.
I will veto any bill designed to preserve my body in ice. I demand to be cremated. Or disassembled and deactivated. Depends.
The EDIT Act has passed the Board with a vote of 3 yea votes and two abstentions. I have signed it into law.
Diggin the throwback flag, Pev.
When the impeachment and House reform amendments are crafted, I will be packaging them together in one vote for the sake of efficiency. I want to start drafting the former today, so I need ideas.
Right now, it looks like there will be no Board elections, since all new candidates are filling the seats of retiring Board members and are unchallenged. The elections may still go in if more people step forward.
Thank you. I created it myself, with a little help from some flag software.
*grumbling noises*
Anyone remember this flag?
I still have every flag I've ever used.
Time to go find an old one that I know I used here in 'Tatem.
Post self-deleted by Miencraft.
This might have been the first flag I used here.
Not exactly sure, though. Looking back through my RMB posts, I think my earliest announced flag change was after this, since I remember someone mentioning that this one can be built in Minecraft.
I said that, I believe. That's your second flag, if memory serves, but I can't remember what your first looked like. I think it had a complicated (pentagonal?) design.
Indeed it is, I just wasn't sure if I had used the previous one here or solely in the region I was in before this one.
I'll go change to my first now, though.
Also, by memory, every flag I've used in the history of ever:
http://www.nationstates.net/nation=miencraft/detail=factbook/id=293020
I think.
Oh, man, I wish you could see the edit history of dispatches like with pages on wikis and whatnot.
Hear ye, hear ye.
TNUS did not respond to me, so Miencraft will retain the IA position.
I do. Barely.
Dear allies of Libertatem:
We have been informed recently about your newly elected president/new president elect, and I am here to congratulate them in this occasion, and we wish them luck in their reign as president.
If you require any assistance or such, please do not hesitate to ask us.
Thank you, have a nice day.
In Confidence,
Emperor, leader, and General of Empire Of Andrew
Merci, monsieur!
Es exspectata!
Hey, Humpy, you still got one of your old flags lying around?
It's, like, old flag day up over here.
The flag that my puppets fly was my first custom flag.
Aye, I know (I made it, after all), but do you have the one from before then?
They were all in the game. I used other nations.
Well, put your old flag on this one if you have it. For memories.
After nearly a year of occupation, hardship and lockdown, Reaganomic Paradise is back under the control of the natives! We look forward to building a new, prosperous relationship with our former ally.
Here's a throwback.

Désolé pour mon absence.
I went on a trip.
Where did you go?
Just drove around the American West with some friends.
This is the best thing ever and totally made my day..
:P
Thank you very much to Ankha for his diligent service as the Attorney-General. To replace him for my final eleven days in office, I am appointing Conservative Idealism. Welcome aboard.
Thank you.
Assembled with Dot's Region Saver.
