Do you guys know what day it is?
That's right, it's Refugia's birthday! Happy birthday Refugia!
A whole lot of stuff has happened over the last five years, both in-game and out. It surely is a miracle that we've made it through.

Hey everyone, I know I've been quiet on WA stuff for a bit, but in my defence there hasn't been anything good in the WA for a while. I'm going to put up a personal recommendation to vote against the current at-vote GA resolution for one simple reason. Really, one simple line. This one:
Yeah, that's a good point, that repeal really seems irresponsible because it left a big gap in protection against racial discrimination. I wonder who wrote the repeal of that and argued that it was a good repeal because the original was outdated and everything it protected was more thoroughly protected by subsequently-passed legislation. Oh, it was the same person writing this one? Funny how you can create a problem, then get a thousand more resolutions with your name on them under your belt cleaning up that problem.
I'd personally prefer to see someone- anyone- else writing this. Ice States has a huge problem making terrible repeals and creating huge issues while also misrepresenting opposing arguments and insulting the people who argue against their work. I'm glad this is failing, and I hope to see someone else write something instead. Preferably someone who wouldn't include things in their resolution that actively work against the thing they're allegedly supporting with the resolution:
Emphasis mine. Doesn't this just allow employers to create some false "proof" that aligns with racist intent? I understand that it's not the intended use of this clause, but it's so easy to abuse, and that could be fixed with either further explanation or not including this exception clause at all.

I have accidentally tripped and acquired weapons of mass destruction. Fear me, for I could also trip and set them off. My citizens are terrified.
I hope the attack beavers dont get ahold of them, that would be bad.
[sub]What do I do with all these nukes now I never wanted to have them I just wanted to dispose of the waste from my nuclear power plants better and it magically turned into weapons[/sub]

is there a way to prioritize getting tax rates down?
Deg0Od
Give them to me, I promise us in Leoneia will take good care of them :)
Typica, Tiralta, Jazur, The Blue Fire, Deg0Od
nuh uh, give 'em to me, I'll take goooood care of them :3
The Blue Fire, Deg0Od
I think the only way to do that is by lowering government expenditure (so basically picking answers that end up slashing healthcare, welfare, education, environmental programs etc.) If you want to have a government that takes care of its citizens then you will have to accept the high tax rates. The two correlate. I mean, that's how real life governments work as well.

All of y'all are missing the point. what you do is you use them to play the most dangerous game of Jenga. you should obviously do this nuke jenga on top of an unclaimed mountain

I would like to have some critique about my flag if you can. I just started working with Inkscape.
Tiralta, Deg0Od
I like it! It's simple and it's colors go well together.
Tiralta, The Blue Fire, Deg0Od, Novus Hortus
Thank you. My main issue about making the flag was to avoid making it look like too much like India's flag, while trying to make it more or less unique. But, at the same time, without my experience in the program, I can't make it more intricate, so... Yeah, I had to resort to... something simple, yet meaningful for a symbol.

Hi all. So today, Agudo Island just switched from "Liberal Democratic Socialists" to "Left-Wing Utopia". While I totally dig that, it raises a question:
Are there any "Right-Wing Utopia" nations? Because I haven't seen any of those yet in my interactions here and in NS in general. And if there is, what would such a nation look like economically, socially, and politically to gain that title?
Delta Vega Iv, Refuge Isle, Jazur, The Blue Fire, Pantumaca, Deg0Od
There are, yeah, but they're pretty rare. The last time I checked (in November) there were only 2,500 on NationStates entirely, and only 71 of them were in the World Assembly. It requires low civil rights, high economic freedom, and middling political freedom.
I made a dispatch that has that kind of information here: https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=1446209
Chacapoya, Melenavenia, Araine, Portmanteau, Tiralta, Jazur, Ullrani, The Blue Fire, Dutchformosa, Pantumaca, Agudo Island, Deg0Od, Monkely
lol! fair.
Delta Vega Iv, Chacapoya, Tiralta, Jazur, The Blue Fire, Deg0Od
A coalition of economically powerful nations have made headlines by installing an embargo against The Pacific Northwest, citing the nations weapons of mass destruction program as alarmingly large and detrimental to world peace.
Oh no they noticed
Maybe we should listen to this coalitions entirely reasonable demands, and scale back our weapons programs, muses your Foreign Minister, munching on a Maxtopian mango. Its not like we really need that many smallpox-infused nuclear warheads, is it?
So I not only tripped and created nukes, I tripped and created an alarming number of smallpox infused nukes. How does that even happen? I was so clumsy I resurrected a disease? I fell over and stole some samples from that one lab that still has them?
This is a disaster.
And then I got another issue that says Official inspectors visiting your nuclear launch silos have revealed that much of the equipment used is decades old.
So now theyre time traveling nukes? Ive had them for a day how is the infrastructure decades old?
My clumsiness truly knows now bounds, it has transcended the laws of the universe.

Tritiumgate is getting a bit out of control
hey ur not supposed to respond to this in my comment this is a quote not a conversation (yet) STOP DOING IT /j[spoiler] the above was made because I quoted the whole thing and my brain short-circuited and I laughed at the idea. anyway on with the rest of the responses[/spoiler]
Yes, the moon is a stoat still, but it's taken a break from turning the entire Refugi government into cats for playing tag with the sun, which it did turn into a bird btw. If you nuke the moon it would probably get angry at you. idk what it would do tbh it stopped controlling my mind a while back
Better yet, the moon turns you [I]into[/I] a nuke, and then nukes the extra-secret map 4
if you need any more space... (I will advance this offer again)
[I]deep breath[/I]
I also have a few abandoned military bases for additional room if ur transit network get strained. if you send any people over they'll be perfectly safe, and most of them won't contract lycanthropy and plot to overthrow the government unless the government does a lycanthropy endorsement campaign discouraging avoiding getting turned into a werezoion :) that definitely hasn't happened before :) and I definitely didn't get my job as funny silly Banoldi representative due to my werezoionic involvement in this hypothetical happenstance :)

TIL that apparently the longest recorded war was actually the Third Punic War because Rome and Carthage signed a peace treaty in 1985, making the war 2,134 years long. now I mean Carthage was obliterated but
Delta Vega Iv, Tiralta, Jazur, Tuluni, The Blue Fire, Dutchformosa, Deg0Od
AFAIA, the Peloponnesian War lasted longer. Since there was no "official" peace treaty until 1996.
