Region: Thalassia

History

I concur with Bad. Make sure to check every campaign dispatch and vote for the one you truly think will benefit Thalassia greatly. It’s your choice. Not my, Bad, or Czech’ choice to decide your vote. :)

I am not in the WA as I do not want the effects on my country. Can I make a WA country so that I can vote?

While you cannot vote in this specific election, you are welcome to vote with a WA nation in any future election or referendum.

Oh definitely. It’s not mandatory for your main to be WA. Plenty of WA members such as Topid, our predecessor region’s founder, had a separate WA nation for a short period of time.

Once the election starts, any nations that move to Thalassia cannot vote. Their votes are removed to avoid any chance of voter fraud. You may use a different nation, but its vote wouldn’t be counted this election due to that security measure.

Czech Germania, Badivermeraed, Ayeinc, Wiskawga, Dino Thalassian Mission

I finally got Dinoium’s gif flag to work but it’s so small. :(

As the voting period begins, I’d like to remind voters to look over mine, Bad’s, and Dino’s campaign dispatches, all of which are linked in the announcement TG, and to make as educated a vote as possible.

"Interesting! We in Avalonia have been very interested in the economic boom, and would be interested to learn about its environmental effects. Now, what would you be interested in putting on the agenda? Avalonia would be interested in discussing the Malmörebro Treaty, environmental agreements on Avalonian airspace and waters, political and civil rights, and visa policy (Avalonia has a thriving tourism industry)."

[RP]

[spoiler]“I would love to discuss first the Malmörebro Treaty. In particular, I wonder how Avalonia plans to expand the Treaty to include the greatest military powers of the region, especially to include those such as Yaldia that have engaged in what many would deem as warmongering. And also, I wonder if Avalonia aims to include Czech Germania in the treaty, and if so, if it is willing to make exemptions for us on certain clauses (such as those restricting the transport of military units through the waters of neutral nations) that I can be sure the Czech government would not agree to follow.”[/spoiler]

Unfortunately yes. Whether you were here before or not with your residential nation doesn’t matter. It’s obly for security reasons. Believe me, I want to make this nation WA so I can vote but that doesn’t seem to be happening this time. :(

New Camelot Of Avalonia wrote:So even though I was here before, because I had to create a WA country so that I could vote, I cannot vote?

Yes. You may, however, have Avalonia join the WA for the election period, and then have it leave afterwards. The Constitution outlines only that nations who joined before the election was announced and are members of the WA may vote, not that they have to had been WA nations prior to the election announcement.

[spoiler]"Well, encouraging stability through international treaties is in the best interest of all nations, even if it is in just one area, that is Avalonia. We would hope all nations would sign onto the Malmörebro Accords because as it is, it guarantees the neutrality of Avalonia, and therefore, it encourages international stability. We would hope to include great military powers as signatories to respecting Avalonian neutrality because in many ways, it forms the foundation on which to build relations with the Imperial Welfare Union. Though we are socialist, we don't ascribe the success of our system to an inherent superiority of socialism over capitalism. Neither do we subscribe to the belief that as a socialist country, we must close ourselves off from the capitalist world.

Our foreign policy is open to all countries, but as is reasonable, we ask that all countries respect us a nation. We will not get involved against their military actions or conquests, nor will we take up arms to contribute to a rising death toll to violence and war. All that we ask is that nations respect our territorial integrity, and the regulations we set for our waters and our airspace. One of those happens to be that we will not accept military vessels in our waters or airspace. If a nation cannot respect our right to regulate our territorial waters and airspace, then they are in effect not respecting a simple yet fundamental tenet of Avalonian sovereignty, and therefore not respecting Avalonian sovereignty as a whole. So if a country tells us that they cannot respect the Malmörebro Accords, which at most infringes on their right to violate our territorial integrity, we in Köbarnhavn are left wondering what there is to be the foundation of any relationship between us and that country, seeing as though there is there would be no mutual respect of sovereignty, which should be the foundation.

So in short,we in Avalonia see signing the Malmörebro Accords as an easy step towards having relations with us, as we are a quite open nation. We simply have no interest in conflict, as a nation, as a people, and as a policy. On your question of exemptions, we don't see any exemptions necessary for a nation that respects our sovereignty, and therefore our territorial integrity. We are a peaceful country, and we won't go stirring up problems for other countries if nations respect our peace. If we can move past the Malmörebro Accords, Avalonia, you will find, is a quite accommodating nation, and we have a genuine interest in fruitful, mutually beneficial and enjoyable relations."[/spoiler]

Does that include the debate period? If that is the case, I’m not eligible to vote either.

In article VII, section 2, the constitution reads as this

Voting in such regional polls will be restricted to WA residents. Any resident who moves to Thalassia after an election or referendum vote has begun will not be eligible to vote in that election or referendum.

My interpretation of that would be you can vote before the actual vote starts, meaning that if you moved during the discussion or debate, you could vote in the actual election, which would be the vote started today.

King Edward had a tour of the capital of the Kingdom of Maritagnia, San Agustin. He got to know the place better and every time when he spotted a pub he memorized where it was.

The king decided to go out in the night. He went to quite a lot of pubs in the streets of San Agustin and drank a considerable amount of alcoholic beverages. He never ate a glutetarte. Surprisingly, the king managed not to pass out before returning to where he was staying.

(I decided to bring this over as part of the king, those of you in the government discord know what I mean)

[spoiler=RP] After this occurrence, Caroline, noticing the King's hangover-like state, decides to ask all the pubs he went to restrict him to 4 drinks of alcohol per day in all pubs (i.e. if King Edward drinks 4 beers in one pub and goes to another pub, that other pub shall not give him alcoholic drinks, though he can ask for non-alcoholic versions of those drinks and, of course, non alcoholic food. Claro, meanwhile, is completely disturbed by the King's intoxication while thinking Caroline's methods are "a speck bit too harsh and not fun". Of course, Paciphacio is completely torn on which side to follow and starts chanting several benefits and drawbacks to each side and trying to crunch the best side. "Stop being so nervous."

Five Points To Remy wrote:Does that include the debate period? If that is the case, I’m not eligible to vote either.

The Constitution is inconsistent on that matter. As Bad said, under Article VII Section 2, you may vote if you moved during the campaigning period.

However, under Article VII, Section 4, “Only WA nations that joined Thalassia before an election was announced may stand in said election.” Whether “before an election was announced” means before the voting period was officially begun or before the election procedure itself had been announced (including the campaigning period) is unclear, so until there’s some more clarity on that, either in an Amendment or through some sort of confirmation, I’d say that you’re qualified to vote, and may invoke Article VII, Section 2 in your defense.

[spoiler]As one of the other officials scribbled down a few notes on Renaldi’s words, Maier responded, “I am sure that the Czech government would be willing to respect Avalonian waters and airspace. I just was not sure whether the Malmörebro Accords were to include multiple neutral nations, in which case Czech Germania may have some trouble signing into the Accords, or whether they were centered around Avalonia. Since you’ve clarified that it is the latter, I have high hopes that the Premier will want to enter into the Malmörebro Accords once word is sent back home, as he sees Avalonia as a useful ally in trade.

Now, about that - should Czech Germania and Avalonia engage in trade, what do you suppose Avalonia would import from us? I’ve done a quick read-through of the pamphlet you gave to me, and I am very interested in the Freedom system, but I wonder what types of companies Avalonia would look to order from, exactly. A huge part of the Czech economy is the Arms Manufacturing industry, which I know that Avalonia would not enter into, since, from what I’ve read, firearms are banned here.”[/spoiler]

A joint RP would be interesting, and I've seen it done before. I believe that you could be referring to my alternate RP policy, which is a plan for an alternate RP region, which is where an RP seperate from the main one could take place, or more specific RP's. I've seen it mentioned a few times, and I'd be willing to accommodate that.

“With the state of the Czech environment deteriorating considerably over the past few years (to the point where rates of respiratory illness caused by air pollution are skyrocketing), the government has been forced into applying green initiatives and cracking down on fossil fuels. I think that this is the perfect time for Avalonia to come in and work with the our government to support the economy in our nation’s green revolution.

As for Avalonia’s desire for raw materials, I think that the leading corporations in the Czech mining industry would be happy to accommodate Avalonia’s needs. Regarding the practices used by those corporations to harvest precious metals, the Czech government has strict standards on the amount of explosive firepower that can be used in mining, among other restrictions that protect the environment from harm.”

Just to clarify: They can't vote with a new nation they're bringing in to vote now that voting has already started. Per Article VII, Section 2, the nation must have been a resident of Thalassia before voting began. So they can put WA on the nation they already had in Thalassia before voting began, but they can't move a new nation into Thalassia now that voting has already started and vote with it. No nations that move into Thalassia after voting began are eligible to vote. Their votes have to be discarded.

A wiki? That seems a bit above my scope. I just want to know how to format things in a way that makes them look nice. I'd like to have some geography, some tourist info (in case they get lost in the woods), some government facts, etc.

Controversial Referendum

[spoiler]A referendum on returning Vasilevgrad from Molotovgrad it caused major divisions in the country.The left-wing parties are a lousy old name while the right-wing ones for change. It is also interesting that each side has good enough arguments.Leftists claim that Nikolai Molotov by whose surname is named the city, claim that he is most responsible for the uprising that took place on October 12, 1941.On the other hand, rightists are unique in response:It is true that Nikolai Molotov organized the defense of the city against the enemy, but it would have been impossible without the people who made up the army.

President Luka Gavric was born in the city and made his comment:The ruling party and I are in favor of a name change and we think that a referendum is important in this matter.But we will also accept every decision of the citizens of the second largest city. We all know that the referendum is known as the "Festival of Democracy".

The opposition accused the president of bias, and they said it was contempt of the constitution, which said that the president represented the republic and express its unity.

Citizens will vote on the name of the second largest city on Friday December,20 .[/spoiler]

Even if you don’t win, you’ve done a huge favor in at least running, because you’ve put some good ideas out there that the next PM may take inspiration from (and that, I think, is my favorite part of the elections), and also because voters now have a larger variety of candidates to choose from, so they won’t feel pressured to vote for me or Bad if they don’t want to.

The FPTR (Federation of Principalities and Territories of Royalty) located in section 56, sends Ambassador Torenthar to the Holy Empire of Atlas Orbis to open up negotiations for a peace treaty with the neighboring nation.

(Let’s see what happens mate.)

RP

The FPTR would meet with The Holy Empire of Atlas Obris's Military leaders and Civilian Leaders, but it would seem they we would not budge and are stuck on the idea of expansion. They obviously want more land and these deals don't same to appease to them.

Finally a rp again -—-

As the conference would continue, many smaller nations on the eastern side of the nation would report seeing large, threatening fleets of ships with Atlas Orbis's Flags. Tensions rise as they hear of the news of expansion and start to prepare for war that can break out at any moment.

Ah, perfect. I will have my offices coordinate with each other to look into sourcing from the Czech mining industry. Additionally, should the Czech mining industry be interested in sourcing from renewable energy, the Avalonian renewable energy market is huge, and offers competitive pricing because our whole energy infrastructure and organization is geared towards renewables. I will also recommend the consideration of temporary suspension of tariffs on raw materials from you country. Temporary Tariff Suspension, or TTS, is sometimes used by the government to encourage the flow of a certain good into that market that Avalonia does not produce in enough quanitity that is needed for Avalonian industry. Czech mining productions, I believe, represent the situation for which this mechanism was designed. Moving beyond that, is there anything that you would like to discuss on trade?[/spoiler]

RP - Avalonian Request for Information

The Avalonian Primary Commission for Internal Supervision of International Relations Widely Regarding Formal But Not Limited To Bilateral Agreements As Recommended or Formally Sanctioned by the High Office of the Liaison Commissioner for the Ministry of State and Ministry of the Environment Cooperative Policy and Initiative, an Avalonian entity widely abbreviated as APCISIRWRFBNLBAARFSHOLCMSMECPI, and further abbreviated as APCI25, is requesting information from other nations.

“Yes, I was also wondering what goods Avalonia would wish to export the most to Czech Germania, including those from certain industries that aren’t exporting enough but you think would be in high demand in Czech Germania, and those from industries that are exporting a lot due to their high demand in all nations.”

Hello all!

I was just conducting some random Foreign Affairs business and checking out your region when I noticed some old friends had resettled here. We used to RP together and had loads of fun, and what with your large population, beautiful map, and engaging lore I do look forward to RP here. Are there any procedures I must do (citizenship application, map application or whatnot) before I can RP here?

Serbian RTV, Press Conference, President of The Election Commission, Miomir Stamenkovic

[spoiler]The press conference room was full of reporters. The journalists spoke constantly. They were waiting for the president of the election commission to announce the presidential candidates. They waited half an hour. He finally showed up at the door. He stood in front of the microphone, took his reading glasses out of his pocket and put them on. He took the list with the names of the candidates and started reading:

"Good evening. I apologize for this late press conference. I hope you're not too tired. So as not to linger, I'll read it right away. The official five presidential candidates are:

https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=1271387

"The presidential campaign starts on October 25 and runs through November 2. Please, I can only answer one question."

N1 television reporter:"Good evening. I wonder how you chose Djuro Pucar as a candidate from the Communist Party? You know that he has a turbulent political past and that he is the politician who will do anything to get into the presidency, and perhaps the criminal record. Thank you."

The President Of The Election Commission:

"Thanks for asking. Mr. Pucar was selected because he met all the eligibility criteria. We are all familiar with his politics and how he conducts it. I don't know where you got the information that he has a criminal record. Mr. Pucar has no criminal record. Hope you are pleased with the answer. Thank you again for coming in large numbers. Good night."

He took off his glasses and put them in his pocket. He left the press conference room. Satisfied reporters quickly packed up their gear. Quickly the press conference room emptied.[/spoiler]

Well, the Prime Minister election has just ended. As the nations of Eriama and Atlas Orbis have moved in after the election has started, their votes have been discarded. The official tally is as follows:

Badivermeraed - 19 votes (59,4%)

Czech Germania - 11 votes (34,4%)

Dino Thalassian Mission - 2 votes (6,2%)

Congratulations to our first Prime Minister - Badivermeraed! Good luck to you on your new job as the head of our regional government. I hereby officially invite you to form a cabinet.

---

I'd also like to announce my pick for a Vice President - Czech Germania! His intensive work in various ministries, his activity, and his professionalism have impressed me majorly, and I think he will be excellent in the role of Vice President. I truly believe he wants, and will try his hardest, to make Thalassia ever more greater and prosperous. I encourage everybody to ask me, or him, any questions you have concerning his nomination. The discussion period will last two days, with the voting starting on the 25th of October, and continuing on for three days.

On another note, due to the Thalassian elections officially ending, the endorsement cap has been raised to 50.

Badivermeraed was elected on a mandate of creating a public discord. Assuming Bad does introduce an amendment I have 2 questions for you:

1. Would you attempt to persuade Rocky to prevent such an amendment going to vote due to your campaigning against it in the election.

2. Will you take any stance during the referendum on such an amendment or do you intend to operate as a head of state, in my opinion, should and abstain from giving any firm opinions on it.

Czech Germania, Badivermeraed

Thank you all who voted!

I'd like to announce my cabinet now.

Coming in to lead MoS will be Wiskawga. I know he'll excel at keeping Thalassia safe, and I look forward to working with him and showing him the ropes.

Leading MoI will be Sho. I know she'll continue expanding the ministry and handle it well. MoI will have an increased role in the coming weeks, and Sho will crush the job.

Staying in culture will be Toerana Iii. He is very excited about staying in culture, and will continue to attract RP'ers far and wide.

Finally, leading MoFA will be Ayeinc, who will be continuing to guide our ambassadors to different regions.

I'd also like to add that I'm encouraging deputies for all ministries. You may choose at your own liking, ministers.

I am very excited to be your PM, and I can hardly wait to help improve Thalassia!

Semper Thalassia!
