No worries, you can ask us questions, too, if you wanna know why exactly your nation is on fire this time.
Also you will get a hug from me and a lavender shrub. Last but not least, uwu :3

Who else thinks fall is better than spring?
Sylh Alanor, Tiralta, Falafelandia, Jazur, Uwuguaya, The Blue Fire, Ethierys, Lanassia, The Ledona
Fall is by all means better than spring. It has a seasonal flavor, pumpkin spice, which, coincidentally is my favorite flavor, it has an amazing color palette, and, most of all, leafs fall and some of them are sooooo much fun to step on. Also, having a feast with family and handing out/receiving candy are much better traditions for seasonal holidays.

I am a seasonal egalitarian; I don't think any season is inherently better than the others.

Same here. It's nice to know theres another fall lover 'round here

Tiralta, Falafelandia, Uwuguaya
I am a spring enthusiast. Summer is too hot for my taste, winter makes my chronic conditions worse, and fall is nice but it means that winter is coming. It makes me really happy to see green plants, hear birdsong, and get out of school before dark.
Tiralta, Falafelandia, Duerrenberg, Uwuguaya
Same to all of this (except work instead of school). Summer isn't too bad here but I still prefer being able to wear jeans in spring.

So my people (not from an issue just my own country canon) have started a holy war between the Christians and Muslims 49% of my country is Muslim and 51% of my population is Christian, and they hate eachother so they started with protests and started to shoot each other and that's when it all broke out

There will be updates for all who actually care

Hi guys
Falafelandia, Uwuguaya, Koliland
god damn it I swear I'll play fair this time (I won't get involved 'cause school)
Tiralta, Falafelandia, Jazur, Uwuguaya
I mean yes, theres the 31st of October*, when Luther nailed his 95 Theses on the church door in Wittenberg, but apart from that theres not really many important holidays or family gatherings, unlike in winter, when theres Christmas and family gatherings, etc.
In spring theres Easter and sometimes Pentecost. Plus everythings blooming and blossoming and then theres my favourite flowers, tulips and oh, the daffodil.
For me spring is the season I like the most, with winter and autumn being close second. Summer is my least favourite due to the heat and unstable weather conditions.
*I think its called Reformation Day in English, too?
Understandable, in that case. I am weird but you may call me normal depending on your own perception.
But do keep in mind I think of being weird as good and dont include overly hornyness in it.

Hey everyone, Im finally back on nation states!
Its assessment season at my school, so I was swamped. Anyway, quick question. What is something really random that I can put in my dnd campaign? Its ok if you dont know dnd, just come up with some random thing.
My session is tomorrow and Im not done so any help is appreciated. :P

Long story
Araine, Portmanteau, Jazur, Ouch To The Natives, Irimara
I want the story on this
Araine, Lycanjeskai, Ouch To The Natives
So basically, this concept has evolved in every campaign my group has had:
1st) both Rangers rolls NAT1 on identifying tracks. Goblins are now thought to be demon aliens
2nd) new goblin NPC appears, in a rush he is named Gobtar. Gobtars defining features are as follows:
Kleptomania
Incredibly long tongue
Never rolled below 15 except a few times when he rolled 3, 2 or 1.
Naturally, the party ended up using him as a weapon, throwing him at stuff.
Then the big reveal: HE WAS PART ALIEN AND IN A WARLOCK PACT WITH A DEMON.
Next few campaigns) he kept making dumb cameos, usually to do with his long-tongueness
The dragon prince campaign) Teamed up with bait to steal the kingdoms supply of jelly tarts in the April fools side quest
SCP campaign) he is labelled anomalous, in a breach he begins stealing a bunch of powerful objects including: BRIGHTS CHAINSAW GUN

Does Power Word Kill count as peacefully dying?
If you're below 100 hp? It never specifies if the death is painful. Just that you die.

Depends on how they die. If they just drop to the floor through the same causes as dying in your sleep, I suppose that's fine. Otherwise...

Also what is the official currency of the region? I'm just curious cause there are a lot of countries that have Planet as their currency like Refuge Isle and Sylh
Chacapoya, Araine, Tiralta, Falafelandia, Uwuguaya
There actually isn't one, but there is a group on the map that uses them as a unified currency for ease of trade!
Sylh Alanor, Tiralta, Falafelandia, Jazur, Uwuguaya
There is a treaty on the map for those who meet the minimum requirements and have planet set as their national currency. Planets are also the currency used by Dot, CalRefs discord bot. But I dont think theyre an official currency.

No, of course not. I personally choose to stop celebrating Halloween. Its nice for kids but as an adult its kinda less desirable. Plus we got our own Thanksgiving here, but thats in October and not in November*. And our national holiday is also in October.
In November are some things like All Saints but I am not catholic; and then theres the Day of Prayer and Repentance but thats not an actual holiday and the Ewigkeitssonntag [https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Totensonntag], which is also known as Totensonntag, but the wiki doesnt mention that Catholics also have that holiday. In fact, the latter description is used by Catholics, and the former by Protestants.
*Supermarket chains and bigger corporations though, American as well as our own, try to shove American holidays down our throats w/ Black Friday and Thursday Thanksgiving or something like that. Its really rather sad, especially since we got our own Thanksgiving.

A bit late but I prefer spring to fall. Seeing flowers bloom and seeing trees blossom is very inspiring and calming. And the days are longer which is always good. Though I like late spring and early summer the best. Longest days, finest weather.

Welcome to the region! Sorry if you're tagged in this and you've been here for a couple weeks- we hadn't done this in a while so this is a bit of a catch-up. You're very welcome to the region either way!
I hope you feel comfortable hanging out with us in Refugia! There's lots to do on NationStates. Become a Member State by joining the World Assembly and hanging around for a week. Youll be able to get a spot on the map of Refugia, (new map about to drop) as well as vote in elections and referendums or run for Council positions.
Once you've signed up for the World Assembly, you can endorse other nations and build your regional influence. This is easy with our custom tool, Tart.Calref: https://tart.calref.ca/
If theres anything else youre interested in learning about our region or NationStates, feel free to ask!

And because nobody can stop me from all the double posts in the world >:D we're doing a map update!
Have you ever ignited some TNT in Minecraft and thought "ohohoho how satisfying it'll be to blow up this landscape"? I bet you have, or at least several of you have. Probably all of you. Anyway, there's a part of all of us that revels in the possibility of wanton destruction in a safe environment, and that's what I've come to talk about today.
So! What the heck are you talking about, Emily?
I'm glad you asked. We've done a BIG YEET when it comes to the map. You may remember the rollout of the new map? Hahaha, that was only half of the great fun we're having in Refugia these days. The other half is deleting all those people from the old map! I personally visited all of these nations on the map and dropped a big ol' circular bomb with a comically long fuse into the centre, then lit it and watched as the following nations disappeared:
There was a special appearance made by the great Death Laser, which cut across the rolling plains of Tiralta as well. I didn't even know there was a death laser! Neat!
Of course, there were other controlled explosions, to mark the people who have CTE'd in the past few months. These were:
They will be missed.
But whoa, what else could possibly be destroyed? I'm glad you asked, faithful viewer, ye who could not look away! The Chatulai, Naturalist, and Starnian cultures have also disappeared from reality! (Chatulai now an available flavour in the second map, and Starnian hasn't existed for a while but I missed it for a long time) Also congratulations to Tidelia, the new ancestral home of the Mediterranean culture!
WAIT THERE'S MORE! The RISDU treaty is gone from the original map! All the nations involved in RISDU have skedaddled their way to a new alternate realm, and therefore cannot be found anywhere in the original canon.
It's positively raining debris all over Refugia, and so much awesome land is now available for people to claim in their own, new map applications! So send those in below!

Hey, everyone! With the recent changes in the map, I've felt inspired to create a new treaty to be put in place. The working title at the moment is the Refugi United Socialist's Alliance; or RUSA for short. It's essentially just a treaty that creates a support web between socialist nations economically and socially. The current requirements I'm thinking of are: must have the socialist economic policy, must have civil and political rights at Good or higher, and must have integrity of at least 70. Feel free to shoot me a telegram if you're interested in joining and/or want to propose some ideas for it! Thanks :)
