Region: Libertatem
Uh, as per a request by telegram, I have added the AHM Party to list of political parties.
Yakian is running under this party.
All spelling and such was conducted by Yakian, which I copied and pasted, it's not my fault, I promise.
Rateria, Condealism, Jadentopian Order
Hey, someone has to. Without government, who will build the irreverent religions?

Also: maybe during the week I'll set up an EU4 AI game with only four countries of equal development, each with a different specialization.
Roads will be well-rounded, Dred will be military-focused, Lewd will be diplomacy-focused, and Mhomen will be administration-focused.
I'll run it at 5-speed on observer mode and commentate the whole way and see who comes out on top.
Alright.
Rateria, The Aradites
I would like to confirm myself as a devout Roadsian
Muh Roads, Rateria
I've temporarily added the candidates to a dispatch and pinned it, I'll delete it right after the election.

There's the link.
Rateria, Condealism
Yeah, this party doesn't exist until you telegram me this information:
Party Chair
2-3 Sentences about the mission of the party; see examples in the political parties section.
Current government membership of the party.
Rateria, Condealism, Inissbeln
I was thinking of starting the Party Of One but didn't like the acronym. :)
Rateria, Condealism, Jadentopian Order
HAHA
Rateria
Does nobody else want to run for senate?
Rateria, Condealism
How are you guys.
Rateria
"You got your Mhomenism on my Lewdianity!"
"You got your Lewdianity in my Mhomenism!"
Two great faiths that faith great together: Lewdomenism.

I would like to run for Senator
Rateria
I will run for the 5th seat
Rateria
Seat four or seat five?
Rateria
Nevermind then.
Rateria, Uadilifu
Party?
Please say ACA, please say ACA, please say ACA, please say ACA
This is the only ACA I could conceivably get behind
Rateria, Jadentopian Order
RLB
I was going to make the same joke god damn it.
God damn it again
Rateria, Condealism, Uadilifu
Which one?
You, Mhomen, Roads, and Dred.
Rateria
Three months from now, our region is going to be the NationStates equivalent of ancient Greece.
Miencraft, Rateria, Jadentopian Order, Uadilifu
Hmm, I don't know what the RLPs rules are in regard to having two of their members run against each other.
You might have to talk to Humpheria
Until Dred and the Roadsters stop oppressing us Mhomenites and Lews, we can never unite.
Rateria
And by ancient Greece I mean an eclectic f*ckfest of polytheism, infighting, and the occasional sucking up to a world power - complete with new philosophy and literature.
Rateria
Nigel Farage is a legend.
Jadentopian Order
Don't you mean bringing the world's most powerful empire to its knees with a handful of highly trained warriors and strong leadership
Yeah, that's right. F*ck you Persia.
Rateria
There's a lot of tension goin on in Libertatem
Rateria, Condealism
Elections and religious conflict never go well together.
Rateria, Condealism
Ok
Ok
Ok

I'm officially declaring my candidacy for seat 4 as an Independent.
Rateria, Hyderbourg
I will sponsor any legislation that will make this region more democratic and active. I will be looking to expand RP and I will be against any raid or military action against a region unless there is absolutely a reason to. I'll listen to any telegram. I'll respond to ALL. Let's have an independent, libertarian and classical liberal in senate, for a voice of the people!
Pevvania, Rateria
Would reclaiming a raided region be considered a good reason to raid?
If that region had strong diplomatic ties with us and their natives/citizens ask for us to become involved, then yes. Otherwise, it's not our business
Rateria
What is this whole religion thing you keep talking about?
Narland, Rateria
Which is what i said.
What i said(not hurting the others) was mostly about what anti-semetism "brought" to humanity in 1930s-40s.
Everyone's ideas should be respected and not be censored if they don't harm the others.
149 RMB messages. Anyone wanna sum up what's going on?
Rateria
Just the best memes in NS History.
That, and we had this region's equivalent to the Cuban Missile Crisis, but with the religions of Libertatem.

Narland, Rateria, Condealism, Nay Hofn
Religious war broke out.
Rateria, Condealism, The United States Of Patriots, Inissbeln
It really shouldn't matter.
It just means we're more likely to win.
If two RLP members run for the same Senate seat, there is an internal primary before the election amongst RLP members, the winner of which is selected to run for that seat.
Condealism
I will send out a tg to all RLP members at some point this morning to conduct the Primary. I will announce when we have a winner.
Pevvania
Hey guys, one of my friends is getting into politics and has been asking me loads of questions about it. He's instinctively right-wing anyway and wants to learn more about libertarianism, capitalism and basic economics. What are some good introductory books/sources I can point him too?
Narland, Rateria
Point him to*
Rateria
I the U.S.S.C. am throwing my hat in to this election under the Communist Party
Any questions?
Read my lips: No religious war.
An inquisition is fine though
Rateria, Condealism
- Economics in One lesson, How an Economy grows and why it crashes, mises.org
- Road to Serfdom, Free to choose.
(the heavy stuff, if still interested): Ethics of Liberty, the machinery of freedom.
(For fun): Atlas Shrugged, Alongside Night.
If you can gauge what is most important to him, try to present him material of that sort. For example, I was most influence about ethical reasoning with pragmatic and economic reasoning as further support.
Pevvania, Narland, Rateria
No body ever expects the Spanish Inquisition!

"So we reject free-enterprise, and once again the Left shall rise!"
Yes: what the hell seat.
Why don't you like Communism Comrade?
Communism doesn't work
Pevvania, Rateria, Condealism, Jadentopian Order
Good question! I am running for President of Libertatem! Imagine it, a region founded by a anti-communist nation being led by a communist nation!
Imagine the irony, imagine the memes, imagine the jokes!
A vote for my is a vote for the worker!
I was allowed into the RLP during the previous republic. Am I still in?
Humpheria, Condealism
Ah. that's because people are greedy, however in NationStates I can create a Workers Paradise!
This isn't a Presidential election.
Pevvania, Rateria, Condealism
Sure.

Ghee I dunno

To do with these?
Rateria
Liberalism by Ludwig Von Mises
On Liberty by John Stuart Mill
Wealth of Nations by Adam Smith
Anthem by Ayn Rand
I have read Atlas Shrugged twice and it is probably the worst book I have ever read and for one reason only: it drags on way too f*cking long! There is so much filler when there should only be a few hundred pages of what she believes in the story, but no she had to make it as long as possible! Just tell your friend to read Anthem and/or The Fountainhead.
Narland, Jadentopian Order
Then what the hell is this Election! Either way i'm running for the same reason, that and to help this region.
So someone TELL ME WHAT THIS ELECTIONS FOR?

Oh yes, Industrializing agriculture in small villages is definitely how to get your country on pace with the West!

Anthem is sh*t
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crimes_against_humanity_under_Communist_regimes
This should cover it then
Pevvania, Rateria, Venomringo
Atlas Shrugged should be read in moderation i figured out, i read it over a 3 month period which makes parts more refreshing then they could be.
If you read it in English class then it ruins the book...Thankfully, I read it on my own free will!
I dunno, maybe there's a pinned dispatch that'll tell you, or something.
I love Anthem. Very well written book with a powerful message. Gets straight to the point. I've tried reading Atlas Shrugged but I've never been able to get more than 150 pages in. It's just too damn long.
Venomringo
I read it in 4 months in 8th grade then in 3 months in 9th grade for an essay on Ayn Rand, and both times I couldn't seem to enjoy it! To me, Atlas Shrugged was just a synthesis of The Fountainhead and Anthem...
"Something important's about to happen, here, let me give you a 60 page lecture on capitalism written in literally 5 point font."
Miencraft, Pevvania, Rateria, Venomringo
Maybe i liked the themes and setting better in Atlas Shrugged. I could never get into the architecture theme of The Fountainhead. Anthem was great though with the whole twist in it.
Primary ballots sent out
If she didn't have to give you a hundred page lecture on individualism every hundred pages then I would call ot good, but you are right that atmoshphere of Atlas Shrugged is amazing
"Here's one guy talking for 100 pages."
Rateria, Jadentopian Order
I'm independent now
TFW they forget you're the OG RLP tyrant
I still have flashbacks to when I actually read through that whole book. *shudders*
I'm sorry to hear that
John Galt's speech actually gave me PTSD
So.... the primary's off?

The collapse of Obamacare threatens the health security of millions, the NSA is bulk collecting our data and the US is low-key funding a war in Yemen, but the media is focused on Trump having two scoops of ice cream instead of one. Nice.
