Thanks
You’re welcome. You’re in luck, the map was just updated, there are no unmarked claims.

Education for all! :3 It sucks that it'll be bad but with any education is better than none and it will evolve to better. I guess?
Welcome! We're happy to have you here xD feel free to join the discord!
It's easier on the discord if you are on there? Pretty much we need you to stake a claim to a piece of land, tell us your nation and your capital and the colour you would like to be! xD

Wassup STU! Earlier we had a discussion on Milo, which is a choc malt milk drink. So I'm interested to know, what is your favourite addition to have with milk?
Antarctic Sarnz, Zestria
I mostly just drink pure milk, to be honest. Occasionally cacao.
Uncuteatoo
Banana flavouring. Banana milk is my favourite drink ever :)
Uncuteatoo
a good english tea
Vierslan, Uncuteatoo
One of these three: pure milk, Milo, or tea (which I would add evaporated milk to.)
Uncuteatoo
Fair enough xD
Omggg I totally forgot about banana flavouring! Like Nestle? Umm Nesquick?? Omgggg now I want some o.o
Yay for tea!
I've never had evaporated milk in tea? ^-^
Tea, naturally.
How!? O.o
Vierslan, Uncuteatoo
There's a certain brand of banana milk from Taiwan I get. I don't ever buy milk so I never really make my own banana milk :P
Uncuteatoo
Have you had condensed milk in tea? Evaporated is lighter.
I don't add much milk to my tea anyway.
Uncuteatoo
I've never had it either.
Zestria
The Dominions are increasingly disappointing :P
We have fresh milk ...
That is indeed what you put in tea...
Like how is that a thing? I thought evaporated milk was for like, cooking or something!? Not tea o.o
And no, I've never had condensed milk in tea either! That would be so sweet o.o
Evaporated milk isn't canned?
What? Why are you saying that? I don't interact with any milk but fresh milk.
I don't know ... I'm confused ...
This is why we don't put milk in tea x.x
Antarctic Sarnz, Zestria
smh
Antarctic Sarnz, Uncuteatoo
Why are people putting milk in tea? Tea should be cold and have nothing but sugar in it.
Uncuteatoo
stabs american repeatedly
And also get rid of that crappy confederacy theme
Pead Lan
I don’t like Tea or Coffee :V
Uncuteatoo
I cri
What's wrong with my Confederacy theme? The native american tribes in the new England territories founded it anyway and as a Native American descendant. I plan on using it.
Also, have you ever had cold sweet tea? Try it, you'll like it.
it's delicious, but i still prefer a warm tea with milk
I wouldn't know. I've never had hot tea. I've had room temp tea, but still sweetened.
I'd like to try american iced tea o.o
The question was actually about what you'd put with your milk lol xD so it doesn't have to be tea or coffee
Maybe you should try it, you'll like it.

Cold Sweet tea ia a southern thing, most North and Western States like hot tea. While 99.9% of Southerners don't.
Because it's hot as balls in the South? xD
I'll give it a shot, but I didn't like the warm tea, so hot doesn't sound great tbh. But I only live once, worth a shot.
TBH idk, we just hate hot tea. That is probably a great reason, cause the heat index here around mid summer can get from like 110. I've seen it 120 Fahrenheit (48.9 Celsius) here before when I lived in a swamp.
Uncuteatoo
Cold tea isn't even tea its basically equatable with Coke or Pepsi at that point
Not really, the taste is still severely different.
That's not what I meant i meant that the difference is so great and that iced tea was equatable with drinking soda
Does hot tea really taste that different from cold tea?
Uncuteatoo
I taste no resemblance at all really
I feel like it tastes quite different. Even just the taste between a hot, recently made cup and a cup that's been left to cool is quite different.
I definitely think it's different!
Interesting, I'd never guess. But i've also never tried it. I only wan't cold drink usually cause it's warm year round here. It was like 75 degrees Christmas day and I went to the beach. Ima try hot tea, should I put sugar or anything in it? Up for any recommendations.
Uncuteatoo
When it's cold, the tea flavor is less noticeable
Yes, definitely put sugar, unless you don't feel like it
The Confederated Kii Islands
I'll try it and let you know how I like it. I'm taking y'alls word on it. So don't let me down.
Uncuteatoo, Stratoss
So when do the special events of nationstates happen, like I heard there was a zombie and nuclear event?
I usually have my tea without milk or sugar, just hot water and tea.
*There's also a lot of different teas, with very different tastes.
Stratoss
Well you could put sugar in it. But I honestly have mine without sugar and without milk. It's really up to you. Herbal teas don't need anything. Black tea can be good with sugar and milk. It's personal preference really xD
Jajajaja lol I just like it natural but If I’m in the mood I add chocolate :V
Uncuteatoo
Finally got around to changing my flag.
Antarctic Sarnz, Uncuteatoo, Stratoss, Adontia, The Great Hiatus
Looks good!!
May I ask but what does a dispatch exactly do? Are there benefits and drawbacks of doing it?
Uncuteatoo
I don’t really know
They're just stuff like facts about your nation, events in NS, or often memes. Whatever you want. There's not really any drawbacks.
Uncuteatoo
Well, I made a realistic military factbook.
My equipment sucks so much it moves from being silly into being awesome.
Uncuteatoo, Dakhazia, Microsa
Thanks.
Antarctic Sarnz
Personally, I use them for regional documents, which I pin to the WFE.
Where can one find the factbook?
Post self-deleted by Ciodiw.
Solved itself, was a bug
Which specific factbook are you asking for? People make all sorts.
Well, they´re (text) documents you can find on the second tab of a nations mainpage, right below the ratings for economy, political freedom and civil rights. They´re intended to be facts about your nation, like a summary of its history or your code of laws, but you can basically put anything there. Our director here has the regions constitution and map on his.

Antarctic Sarnz, Technocratic Founder, Uncuteatoo, Rosmana, Stratoss, Impeerium Of Man

Rosmana
Zestria

Stratoss, The Great Hiatus

Uncuteatoo, Ritanstan

Uncuteatoo, Microsa
Everything can happen in just 2 issues, I transformed myself into an Iron Fist Consumerist Xd
Uncuteatoo
Also the opposite can happen where you try endlessly yo get something high but You simply cant
Uncuteatoo, The Great Hiatus
Or you make like a choice like band grafiti and it weaknes your economy
Uncuteatoo
Yeah exactly
fine thanks
Ritanstan
Yea it is pretty random sometimes but very enjoyable
Uncuteatoo, Stratoss
i think on changing my flag sholud i choose puerto rico countryball or cuba countryball
Elixandropolis, Uncuteatoo
If you choose Cuba you may want to change your country's name.
Uncuteatoo
yeah true
Just modify your flag
i can't
Create a similar one? Its not difficult to create one of your own
Uncuteatoo
you can do a flag in Paint, that's what i did
Uncuteatoo, Rosmana
I have a question about the map. How is the size of the country determined? Is it by the population?
Uncuteatoo
You can choose the size of your claim, just as long as it is not too big or not too small. Population, and NS stats in general don't matter on the map.
Technocratic Founder, Uncuteatoo, Rosmana
Ok thank you!
Antarctic Sarnz
How does one lay claim please? I can’t seem to figure it out?
Uncuteatoo
So you go to #nation-profiles and send the details of your nation that are needed (check the pinned messages), then go to #ooc and establish your claim (check pinned messages for the things you need to do)

Greetings Citizens!
The Government is recruiting!
I am sure you are aware that we've had a major influx of new people recently, and that as a result I have been busy processing everyone's RP map claims, an immediately obvious part of the region to take part in. I am glad we've had such volume.
I now feel it is time to make clear to you all that this region has far more opportunities within it than just our map. Our government has multiple departments to suit many areas of interest within the game, and at the suggestion of our People's Tribune, United Angeer, I have just created another one called Community Affairs, to present you all with even more avenues to explore.
Please take a look at this dispatch for all the types of government jobs which are currently available, and apply if you're interested in any!
https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=1356429
If you have any further questions about what specific departments are for, please don't hesitate to ask.

What is the role of the members of the Foreign Affairs Department?
Uncuteatoo, The Great Hiatus
Foreign affairs staff act as diplomats to other regions, help to keep us informed of events around the world, and assist in setting our foreign affairs strategy and direction.
Uncuteatoo, Stratoss, The Great Hiatus
What about the Gameside Engagement? What is it about?
Technocratic Founder, Uncuteatoo, Ritanstan
It's mostly about keeping people engaged so like starting discussions and keeping the RMB alive... It's also about helping new people when they have questions and responding to them :)
Technocratic Founder, Uncuteatoo, Awessla, Dakhazia, Stratoss, The Great Hiatus
Ritan is correct and doing their job nicely, I see! It is also about helping to come up with polls, and helping the WA dept. with WA membership and endorsements :)
