Region: Libertatem
My personal opinion:
The Capitalist-Communist "evolution", made by me, Aboriginal North Australia.
1: A peaceful, large, capitalist country
2: A minority want a socialist state because they have no money
3: Eventually, that nation will get a Lenin and overthrow the government.
4: A socialist state is formed
5: They over-equality'ed themselves
6: Eventually, they will get a Gorbachev and territories that want independence gained independence.
7: The people realized that communism sucks, and a capitalist state is formed. The end.
The Libertatem Army
I had a big speech planned for announcing this, but I think I'll just cut to the chase - as the Manager of Military Affairs, I'm creating an official armed forces wing for the region. In the beginning, it shall be comprised of a handful of 4-nation squads, divided into fireteams, that I will assign to different regions to raid.
But before the army is actually established, I need a good name for it. And I am really bad at making up good names for anything. I've rolled these ideas around in my head:
-Revolutionary Army
-Libertarian Revolutionary Army
-Libertan Army
...that's all I've got. :I So anyways, give me some suggestions for a good name so we can get it up and running and kick some commie ass! :)
Also, I've released a new factbook detailing my military victories.
Not revolutionary army. It's too communist. Warriors of Liberty sounds better.
Snab, that thought went through my mind too. But what the communists fail to realise is that they're not revolutionaries at all. They borrow the guise of popular revolutionaries to conjure up support, and use that support to establish dictatorship and ground regions into dust. Soldiers in the Continental Army, the Contras in Nicaragua, the mujahideen in Afghanistan, they were revolutionaries. The word has been soiled by power-hungry fiends and murderous sociopaths who make promises of a new, classless utopia simply to either inflict their twisted world view or feel what it's like to latch onto power. In reality, they hardly do anything to eradicate the class system, often just dissolving the upper class just to stack it with party officials!
...erm, anyway, I like Warriors of Liberty but I'm not sure if it's a good name for an army. It would be better fitting to a smaller group.
Also, it's great to see that the colonial regime in Reaganomic Paradise has been overthrown. Well done to the UDL guys or whoever it was that organised the liberation.
ALL HAIL COMRADE NIGHTMARE MOON!
True Equestria is located in the eastern part of the Equestrian Motherland, of which we are the rightful rulers!
Post by True Equestria suppressed by Snabagag.
Great Comrade Nightmare Moon has announced a missile test in the coming days to act as "a genuine deterrent to the imperialists of Nuevo Equestria." It shall be a new benchmark in our burgeoning nuclear program, which we shall use to wipe the Pretender State off of the face of this planet!
Magic, Moon, Socialism. Hail Comrade Nightmare Moon!
Excuse you, Equestria.

Someone's getting ejected.
Princess Sparkle the Third has announced a large military build-up over the next five years in response to True Equestria's aggressive nuclear program. The Princess also detailed plans to strengthen the Kingdom's military presence on the Equestrian DMZ.
When asked by a reporter whether she was afraid of True Equestria's aggression, she replied, "Absolutely not. The time of when that rogue state held any international sway has passed. And if they do try anything, we can always bomb 'em with some of our own magic... ha ha ha."

Why did you eject me? Don't worry, I only RP as a communist.

So much arguments and war here. Can't we all just get along?
<3 forever...
Yes, yes, you're not communists, I get it, but could you please stop advertising your roleplay/region/fanfiction/whatever? We aren't the place for that.
Back to what Pevvania was saying, I think we should call ourselves something that doesn't sound like a rogue communist faction or a name you'd see in a toy store. Something serious.
Not something communist? Libertatem System of Defence (LSD)?
Oh dear God
How about Department of Homeland Defense? HA ha...ha....................
I said serious.
A good name for our army...I don't know...the Peacekeepers of Strength? Nah, still sounds like something equatable to Power Rangers...
Hey guys, I wrote a short speech in Reaganomic Paradise. What do you guys think?
That was good, Idealism. Short but punchy, and put a clear point across.
Pevv, that flag of yours is by far the most awesome flag I have ever seen.
Yep :P I think it was made in a sarcastic fashion by a liberal, but it's still awesome. x)
Conservative Idealism, we're not here to promote anything, we're just here to roleplay in an anti-communist region.
Idealism, go on chat.
The same damn guy in The Impact Federation as before is whining about Libertatem's military presence in the region. I basically told him tough, because we are protecting that region by law. It's not a raid by any means; until the official dissolution of the Empire, we have a duty to protect our colonies and other minarchist regions.
I wrote another speech, this time in The Impact Federation. Seriously, how many sophomoric idealists are going to use the "heroes are the real villains" argument on me?
I have a new flag that isn't reminiscent of the Holocaust.
Attention! The Chairman of the Board position is now vacant. D:
I couldn't have put it better myself, Idealism. Also, I just got an idea: the Chairman of the Board and Manager of Internal Affairs positions should be integrated into one title. Thoughts?
I agree with Pevv. This is a great opportunity to make the government of Libertatem smaller.
I'm on chat.
Howdy there folks I'm an older nation from here but I decided to come back here. I can't wait to make the acquaintance of all you new nations and I must say it will be a pleasure to be back.
Hi ISA! :D
I really like your flag. Greg Gutfeld is awesome.
Thanks, I like yours too since Ronald Reagan was , in my opinion , the greatest president we ever had.
Post self-deleted by Snabagag.
Welcome back, ISA!!!
Welcome back ISA! Great to see you :)
Glad you're back, ISA!
I have a plan for our government.
First, I'd like to become Manager of the State and would hope that another nation would handle the Internal Affairs position on my behalf. TCLoF, perhaps?
Second, any remaining Board Members should vote on a Chairman. I would pick Islands, myself, but any active Board member would be great for the position.
Third, I'd like to write YET ANOTHER constitutional amendment in order to eliminate two Board positions and have the three remaining Board positions (including Chairman and not counting Managers) be democratically elected at, say, the start of every month.
Any questions?
I'm a big democracy advocate so why not spread the elections to most government positions? I do however support electing the board members as you say.
One step at a time.
Agree with the first two. Idealism would be an excellent Manager of State. He has very strong credentials and some good ideas.
Concerning his third point, I'd like to see the Chairman and MoIF positions rolled into one, with the House of Representatives eliminated in favor of a democratically elected five-man board.
Also, I'm on chatzy. Gotta talk to ya CI.
ISA, the Manager positions need to be executively filled as their main purposes are acting as the Founder's advisors, helping to wage the War on Communism and to advance the region's interests as a whole.
I like to see positions merged to decrease the government but I think that giving the chairman the powers of Internal Affairs would be giving one position to much power.
What ISA said. The Chairman has a special judicial role that we rarely use.
Basically, the executives should appoint the best and brightest nations to be the Managers...but as Liberosia and Snabagag are starting to think, the Board is inactive because the positions aren't chosen by the people...not to mention there are too many slots. We can be both a company in part and a democracy in part.
Take the two most inactive people and boot them out, let the remaining two run for Chairman and then let the people vote for a candidate for the open position is my idea.
One step at a time, as I've said.
Hooray! 83 nations! Let's get recruitin', fellas!
Do we have a special recruitment telegram?
A new recruitment telegram has been send to new nations.
I think someone has a factbook regarding recruitment.
I heared this region alligned it's self with Right-Wing uprising. I find this deplorible action. We must not comprimise our morality by associating with the likes of Nazis and racists.
Hi, who are you?
Yeah, it was an alliance that we apparently joined a really long time ago and forgot all about. I think. To be honest I don't really know that part of the region's history, but we were a lot more easygoing, especially around fellow "right-wingers"...if you know what I mean.
Anyway, we really should take a second look at all of the embassies we have.
I think we stopped allying with Fascist a few months ago.
Capitalist Greed, although I find your name somewhat questionable, I strongly disagree with what you're saying. I brought this point up a week or so ago. We need to cut ties with all fascist regions like the one you mentioned, Zarathustra, Union of Nationalists and Apartheid South Africa. Although the last one I mentioned isn't fascist, it nevertheless promotes hatred.
And remember guys: fascism is not right-wing!
They're not. They're somewhat far-left Authoritarian.
On chat.
I think it's time to pull out of The Impact Federation. We're getting very little native support, and the FRA seem to think they know what they're doing. So I think we'll leave it to them from now on.
I wouldn't cut ties with Zarathustra. They're a skilled raiding region that not only eliminates communist targets but also values the alliance they have with us.
I think the FRA can handle The Impact Federation. Well, whether they can or not isn't really my problem anymore, anyway.

Fascism is right-wing not left wing when it comes to views on rights and so on. They are right-of center for economics.
Fascism is left-wing authoritarian.
Think of this as a sliding scale.
Left (Liberal) - anti- economic and personal freedoms (e.g. communists, fascists, socialists, dem. soc.'s)
Right (Conservative) - pro- economic and personal freedoms (e.g. capitalists, sometimes anarchists, corporatists, dem. rep.'s)
Authoritarian - anti- political and civil freedoms (e.g. fascists, corporatists, socialists, sometimes communists)
Libertarian - pro- political and civil freedoms (e.g. capitalists, anarchists, minarchists, sometimes communists)
Fascism, as we know it, is very left-wing authoritarian because they extinguish all freedoms. It's like socialism, except with a different name and a different lie to tell the populace so that the regime doesn't fall apart. I prefer communism to fascism/socialism solely because it is not always authoritarian. At the same time, though, it's clearly on left field.
American society is in the middle. I'd like to call our system a blend of fascistic corporatism and republican democracy. Because of this, we don't lean very heavily left or right, nor are we too libertarian or authoritarian. This is still a balance that isn't worth preserving, though, especially since leftist authoritarians seek to pull America to their side and are in the process of doing so.
What's with Texacoe and The Federal Islands? They might as well have been raided, because they've cancelled their embassies, kicked out half the populace, and someone who wasn't in charge made the decision to relocate. Plus, they see us as enemies even though we were allied. ?_?
You were right to move away, ISA.
Ah, I see now that Texacoe's actions were unsanctioned. Well, that's what happens when a liberal seizes power in a melting pot region, everyone.
Texacoe went insane because I left and called me a traitor and tried to start crap with us. I'm negotiating with a friend to get something done about that left wing authoritarian. Also be careful he spies on our RMB just like I do to theres. They're also creating a new region for the survivors of this catastrophe.
He spies on us? Good, I was hoping he'd read what I had to say about him.
It's good that the SANE members are regrouping, but if only they didn't let Texacoe have that Delegate position.
I think Shallowell, a decent enough conservative, will probably take that role.
A pity they had to make a new region in order to do that. Texacoe single-handedly weakened one of Libertatem's most historic allies.
Not the first time he's tried to start crap but we will definitly have to rekindle a relationship with the new region depending on WA Delegate, leader, and Member count because we need strong independent allies not ones who could easily be raided and drag us down.
I asked CI to make a list of regions we have embassies with which are fascist. That list is now ready, and I have decided to take the following action:
Libertatem will sever diplomatic ties by withdrawing embassies from the following regions:
The Transcontinental Alliance Of Nations
The United States Of Conservadom
International Commonwealth Of Nations
This is in full accordance with the Constitution.
I'm glad to see this region sever ties with those authoritarian regions. Do you all think perhaps we can attack socialists and facists like we do communists?
A very good decision to close these embassies
We have a communist...er...campaign we have to wrap up first. In the meantime, we need to encourage more citizens here to use their WA nations (preferably to endorse Snabagag when they are not engaging in a military operation).
Hello! With whom should I speak concerning military affairs and operations? Would it be Pevvania or can it be anyone else?
That would be Pevvania or I.
I think it would be a step in the right direction for Libertatem to not only condemn all leftists, but also attack them and sabotage leftist regions. That includes fascists and socialists.
I second that motion.
Thirded, motion carried.
Anyway, what do you want, Albul?
With a little espionage I figured it out. A joint op, with a communist-allied region? Sounds strange.
Fascists aren't leftists... o.0
Also, Slavia is politically neutral with the exception of being anti-fascist. We have capitalists, socialists, and communists in our region but our region is open to all ideologies (except fascist ideologies).
Also, this operation is to defend a capitalist region and a former ally of yours from a foreign threat.
If this Slavia region has communists and socialists we should have nothing to do with them.
I understand your point. However, we are politically neutral. -.-
Besides, we are asking for support in an operation that restores the sovereignty of a region. With this, I've already said too much.
The United States houses communists and socialists. Does that mean you would have nothing to do with the United States?
Socialists and Communists are against everything the US stands for, we cannot get rid of them here in the US because they have the freedom to believe that way but this is NS and I would hate to see this conservative region aid a region that harbors people we are against.
Albul, talk to me on the region's Chatzy.
Military withdrawal from The Impact Federation
In light of dwindling native support of our protection mission and the fulfillment of most goals of Operation: Enduring Safety, we have transferred authority of the protection of the region to an FRA/SDF coalition, who will take on the mission goals from hereon. The withdrawal will be completed within the next 3 days.
Mission accomplished. Thank you to all who helped.
Anyways, i have recently been observing Kyzikos lately, and damn, they are very good at liberating regions. That, or maybe because the raiders are stupid enough to not password-protect the region.

I apologize for not being able to get on chat. I'm on my phone and do not always have wi-if access.
Well, i tried taking that political test i mentioned above 4 times on 2 different laptops, and failed.

On chatzy.
Albul, you can't be politically neutral while being anti-fascist at the same time. That's called doublespeak.
And also, fascism is a leftist ideology. That has already been discussed.
Assembled with Dot's Region Saver.
