Region: The Mystical Council
We've really come a long way as a region. A military is a great step forward. I'm going to work on the Regional Defense Party.
ICish
The Platform:
In general it is a party that is focused on regional security as well as functions of the military (i.e. Regional Guard). Its birth occurred in Sentagon shortly after interactions with nation members of The Red Fleet. It had become clear that after a series of attacks on The Mystical Council, their free way of life would require a defense force.
The Platform.
* Have two branches of government officially pass law recognizing the Regional Guard as an official military organization affiliated with and belonging to The Mystical Council.
* In favor of using the Regional Guard to assist allies such as Anticom, Star Wars Battlefront, and The Wolf Syndicate on missions and military operations.
* In favor of using the Regional Guard to assist embassies protected under the EPA if and when they are attacked.
* Favors promoting awareness of threats to the region both internal and external.
* Favors increasing military numbers
* When interacting with the regional government, believes that military leaders should answer only to the following nations: The Delegate of The Mystical Council, The President of the Lunar Council, and The President of Sentagon. Where there is disagreement in military matters, The Mystical Council's Delegate and two Presidents should cast votes.
* Desires to enact the above statement into law.

Let me know if anyone wants to join the Regional Defense Party. The main goal of this political party is safety for the region and making the Regional Guard a priority.

Hey Everloyal, are you part of the RDP political party?
Everloyal
Personally, I don't do forums and I don't participate in forums. But a lot of regions have them. So I included a spot for them in the Info Center. If anybody wants to create one, or two, or three, be my guest.
?
Just curious. You said something about being interested in it. You wanna join?
My apologies I am slightly dazed RPD?
Oh yes, the acronym. Regional Defense Party (RDP). Basically they are the political backers of the Regional Guard you founded.
Dude, I know how that feels. I've been dazed all day. Real life is throwing some crazy punches my way lately. Craziness!
Thank you for clarification please briefly explain this I did not quite get it from your earlier post.
Well this is the draft that I have right now:

This is not a military. It is a political party which is strongly supportive of the Regional Guard. The goal is to bring the Regional Guard under the control of The Mystical Council's regional government. Basically the Delegate and both Presidents would be the Commanders and Chiefs of the Regional Guard if the RDP has its way.
The goal here is to make our military accountable to our regional government.
Well if sure Do I have to run for anything.
I have a feeling I will be delegate again tonight. I think that the presidents and delegate would have to agree.
Depends. How involved do you want to get? I was just going to make a list of nations registered under that party and leave it at that. (You'll notice on the Regional Government dispatch I put [Regional Defense Party] next to my country.) All you really have to do is declare your affiliation with the party and you're in.
I've lost track of which delegacy this is going to be. 2?th.
I might as well affiliate my self.
Order Of Hospitallers
My last act as Acting Delegate:
Seconds ago: The Outpost of Oakplumington agreed to construct embassies with New Great Khans.
I know section 32 is a little up in the air right now. I'm just going to go ahead and appoint Order o Hospitallers as Journalist.
Good I was gonna do that.
Oakplumington
Well once again I am delegate Like always it is an honour I would like to thank everyone for endorsing me In what time I have which is unknown I would like to get the Regional guard going full bore And I hope the future holds great prosperity for us.
Oakplumington
"38. The Founder shall retain certain emergency powers to protect the region from irreparable damage. A reason must be stated on the regional message board, any time the Founder takes any of the following actions:
a. The Founder may eject a Delegate or dismiss an officer."
Earlier today, I dismissed Mobile Infantry17. The reason for this dismissal is due to the fact that Mobile Infantry17 violated our constitutional system of government by dismissing the members of the Lunar Council and the President of Sentagon. Infantry17 also violated the New Bacon Appearance Act by dismissing New Bacon as Map Minister.
New Bacon, Malcholm, Everloyal
I'm turning in for the night. See everyone later. After elections we will vote once more on section 32 (attempt 2).
This is how the new section 32 works.
I just appointed Hospitallers as Journalist while I was acting delegate. Under the new section 32. I would have needed approval from three different nations: One of our Presidents (Malcholm or New Bacon), a member of the Lunar Council, and a WA member of Sentagon.
For example, if Malcholm, Vaspassia, and Netherfar signed off on it that would make it official.
Example 2, Malcholm, Chingislan, and New Bacon (Remember New Bacon is also a WA member in Sentagon)
Example 3, New Bacon, Jegerkompaniet, Forestavia
These examples are just for illustrative purposes only. If we pass this new section 32, this is the process we will need to follow. It slows down the Delegate from appointing too many cabinet members too quickly and also prevents executive overreach.
Malcholm
I personally disagree but I see the use for a delegate that abuses his power.
Ok, either the WA Delegate or The Founder found the regional newspaper and give me authority to access it and i will start ASAP
I actually don't know much about how this newspaper thing works. Can someone explain it to me?
Order Of Hospitallers
You should make either the
AIA Party (Anticom Inter-Regional Alliance)or the AC Party. (AnarchoCapitalist)
You make articles containing words and pictures, in our case it would be about regional happenings and such.
You have to have NS++ To Utilize it though.
It will be easy to understand once i make a article, only the wa delegate or the founder can found the newspaper thiugh
Oakplumington
Which do you prefer?
(mind you im using ns++)
Region-Controls-(scroll down) NS++ Regional newspaper (hit found button under that) Then select my name under the list of people that have control over it.
the AC
Pin a dispatch explaining the regional guard please.
Thanks that clears things up. I don't have NS++. I'm real low tech over here with my windows 7 laptop and my not-so-smart phone. Maybe Everloyal has NS++. If not, we can elect someone who does so that we can get this newspaper started. I'm excited about it.
Order Of Hospitallers
Im in the exact same situation but its easy, ns++ is a browser add-on

Would you like to be the founder of The Mystical Council's AnarchoCapitalist Political Party? You are after all a member of Sentagon.
Tumetu-Iin Noyan
Gottcha covered. There's not much to the dispatch but here it is.
*Pins dispatch*
Sure
Oakplumington
I'll include it in the info center under "Political Parties"
I meant what is the role/function of the guard.
We should also set up a poll asking people which party they would like to be affiliated with
The majority of nations here are unaffiliated with any party but that trend seems to be changing.
We're still getting the details down with the guard. Primarily its function is to defend and protect this region. But it may assist other military alliances that we have down the road. We'll see what happens down the road.
New Bacon, Malcholm
Man, this Scottish breakfast tea I'm having is amazing!
New Bacon, Malcholm
I'll get the newspaper up when I get home, if you haven't already. I'm on my phone at the moment
New Bacon
Seems I need executive authority.
New Bacon, Order Of Hospitallers
Yea thats why only the delegate or founder can
New Bacon
Does anyone want to join the regional guard protect the region invade others.
New Bacon
Whats with the map new bacon?
You can ask New Bacon for a place on the map if you're interested.

Hey, quick side note - our journalist wants to do an actual newspaper (which I think is cool). Do you happen to have the NS++ add on?
New Bacon, Order Of Hospitallers
This could be your time to shine. If Everloyal doesn't have the NS++, then it's all you. You, the great Order of Hospitallers, could launch a campaign for the Delegacy - our journalist could be both Delegate and Journalist. Now that's something new and historical!!! :) We'll figure this out. I might just eventually end up breaking down and getting the add on.
Order Of Hospitallers
hehehehe
I am going to fight you for every single endorsement to the end.
Forestavia
Yes I have ns++
Order Of Hospitallers
Could you get the regional newspaper set up then?
Order Of Hospitallers
I did
Post self-deleted by Order Of Hospitallers.
You named it after yourself -_-
you did give me posting ability right?
Oakplumington Explained. If you want a spot on the map just ask. Also you can't claim areas already claimed.
That's the spirit! Oh, how I love the sweet sound of politics!
Space was invaded again. Temporarily moving endorsement over there, hopefully just for the night.
Alright, this is my food recommendation. Drop what you're doing right now and go the grocery store and buy this:
>>>> Apple Smoked Cheddar Cheese (Crafted in Wisconsin)<<<<<
It's about 7 or 8 bucks where I'm at but it is soooooo worth it. I'm serious. You have NOT lived if you haven't had this cheese. Sooo go get some!!!!!
Malcholm, Tumetu-Iin Noyan
... It did that automatically anybody have names I will change it.
Order Of Hospitallers
" The Mystical Post "
Tumetu-Iin Noyan
I will update the MAP sometime this weekend yall
Malcholm, Oakplumington
Nice news article, for those that dont have ns++ : https://nationstatesplusplus.net/newspaper?id=4136
Oakplumington
If I ever get around to it
Tumetu-Iin Noyan
There are two officers with the default flag..
If your too lazy to set a flag you dont need to be a officer.
New Bacon, Malcholm, Tumetu-Iin Noyan
Lol
Order Of Hospitallers
Lmao [nation=Romanov Alaska] is back in the UTNA. I know he'll get the notification saying that I mentioned him. Welcome Back Romanov!
Malcholm, Order Of Hospitallers
Are you implying me?
I would hope not.
Malcholm
You and Chingislan, yes.
People without flags are usually puppets.
I am looking for the right one.
Well I never thought of it that way! But...this is a different kind of region!
*gets inspired*
I have a dream that we will make a new kind of region where a nation is not judged by the color of their flag but by the content of their character!
Malcholm
RP:
Nobleton was now the High Council Leader. Harold's term was up and the Nationalists had done well for themselves in the Senate this year. He paged through the region's new newspaper. "Eh, tension brewing. Haven't heard anything from the Left Conglomerate for awhile," mutters to himself. He was pleased that Forestavia was a proud member of the Regional Defense Party as well as a Regional Guard that was - as of yet - not officially recognized by The Mystical Council. Liberals in Forestavia, on the other hand, feared that by aligning Forestavia with such militaristic power could send the wrong message to the world. "We will become thugs of the world!" said some. Needless to say that all anyone in politics or the media would have to say was that magic word - "Lunar Soviet" - and everyone was ready to support the militarism of the day. "The Red Fleet attacked us not once but multiple times," said some. Forestavia's position to keep ANTICOM on the embassy protection list was a direct result of the "Red Scare". Socialist Senators, who now held 69 seats in the Senate were viewed suspiciously.
Malcholm
OOC - I posted that above post under the wrong country. That was supposed to be Forestavia.
New Bacon
Do you want this in the news?
New Bacon
Make your own!
:D
http://www.mediafire.com/download/hji4i91ekvwi3kg/FlagMaker+1.7.zip
the content of their charecter is represented through their flag!
New Bacon
Is there anything people would like to see happen to the region?
There happy?
Malcholm
How is everyone?
Okish, I guess. Just a tad inactive lately due to events in real life. I'm putting up the elections poll today.
New Bacon
Anticom shall remain on the protected embassies list. There were not enough votes to remove them.
New Bacon, Malcholm, Order Of Hospitallers
I did not know there was a vote whoops.
The legislation to adopt the Regional Guard as our region's military was defeated. For now the Regional Guard will remain an unofficial voluntary militia-like alliance accountable to the General (Everloyal), the Colonel (New Bacon), and the Captain (Forestavia). It should be understood to all nations throughout the world that this Regional Guard [I]is not[/I] The Mystical Council's military but is merely an independent military alliance that was formed within our region.
New Bacon
There were a couple happening in our other regions, Sentagon and Mystical Council.
New Bacon
damn maybe next time.
Forestavia, New Bacon
Cool flag Everloyal! Reminds me of a cross between pirates and the wild west.
New Bacon
Maybe once we get bigger. We have to prove to the region what we're made of. Then maybe we'll be deemed worthy of official status. ;)
New Bacon
I plan on it.
So the guard is like a mercenary force now
New Bacon, Oakplumington
I suppose.
New Bacon
Uhhhhh, I'm sorry. I forgot to include you on the ballot. I'm going to send out an email to everyone. Should I redo the poll? Or would you like to run as a Write-in?
I updated the history dispatch. Let me know if I made any errors.
http://www.nationstates.net/nation=oakplumington/detail=factbook/id=373754
I need people to join the regional guard.
*Considers conscription*
I am waiting.
It takes time. New Bacon and I have your back. I think we'll see more recruits in the months ahead. Don't give up or as New Bacon says "Stay Strong!"
No but I have to keep advertising the conscript was a joke maybe.
