You have also breached the NAP by quoting my work without my permission, so the invisible hand of the free market will have to violently fist you. It's self-defense!

To go on a serious tangent, the current employer-employee relationship we have now is something that Adam Smith and his fellow early capitalists were against. They sought capitalism as a way to make craftsmen independent from the shackles of feudalism and promoted the growth of small enterprise and even commended the work of workers' cooperatives. But industrialization came along and wiped out most independent professions as the working man worked in factories under an employer, creating a capitalism that was much closer to feudalism than Adam Smith envisioned.
Nuremgard, Jaslandia, Friedensreich
Repent, sinner! Say 10 prayers to Adam Smith and his archangel Milton Friedman, while facing your nearest Walmart.
Smith was an economist, not a psychic. He had no way to know about multinational corporations, labor laws, unionizing, etc. There were some exceptions (like the British East India Company, perhaps the first modern corporation), but for the most part, this was what capitalism looked like in his day:

I am not holding Smith to an unreasonable standard here. I am just pointing out that capitalism today is not the capitalism that he advocated for. He had no way to predict how capitalism would evolve. He's only human.

Thanks, Merc!
Sorry to hear that, Wyoming. Percyton has a fairly strong IT industry, and we have a significant scientific community (a lot of them here to study our sentient vehicles), so we could help you out with some technologies and advisers.
Rosie: So long as your country is stable enough to house those advisers and their laboratories and research centers, of course.
Percy: Oh, and that's Rosie, my Science and Technology Minister!

Fair enough. You're not wrong. To be honest, I think everyone whose ever had and ever will have their idea enacted into practice will have that idea expanded and changed far beyond what they imagined. I mean, just look at the people who wrote of the U.S. Constitution: They never could have imagined the power the federal government has today, or how much power and influence the President has.
Nuremgard, The Wyoming Peoples Front, Nuova Constidor
And that is a double edged sword as while some changes are for appropriate adaptive purposes, other changes simply work for the disservice of the ideals that the original visionaries built upon. But even with that risk in mind, not having room for the modification of something someone built upon will eventually turn out to be the death of that idea or physical object.

Yep yep! Well, switch out Kulaks with Polacks and you got me in 6th grade.
What a shamefur dispray.... now I like to say I graduated from having an unexplainable bone for Russland (god, this was 2009 or so, so that whole war with georgia thing was happening/just wrapped up too) and the Soviets and on to China and the Maoist Chinese.
Eh, they knew the Constitution was giving an unpopular and worrying amount of power to the federal government even before its adoption.
The likes of Madison and Hamilton wrote papers (Federalist 10, for example) in favor of the new Constitution and published them in newspapers under pseudonyms so that the populace wouldnt question the credibility and honesty of the arguments in them.(< Actual fake news Donny, take a lesson from these guys, not Papa Putin)
In addition, they lowered the ratification requirements from unanimous adoption from each state under the Articles to only requiring 9, knowing that the Constitution would strongly centralize the power of the federal government and take away power from the states.
Nuremgard, Jaslandia
Oh sure, the Founders were expanding the powers of the federal government and they knew it, but only in comparison to the Articles of Confederation and the colonial governments. The last thing the Founders wanted was an extremely strong federal government like Britain, and they certainly didn't want or expect the massive federal government and its associated bureaucracy we have today. Heck, I don't think our current federal government would even be possible back then, since the organizational and communication technologies that make the current federal government run didn't exist back then.

The Bourgeoisie, wherever it has got the upper hand, has put an end to all feudal, patriarchal, idyllic relations. It has pitilessly torn asunder the motley feudal ties that bound man to his natural superiors, and had left remaining no other nexus between man and man than naked self-interest, than callous cash payment.
The Bourgeoisie has stripped of its halo every occupation hitherto honoured and looked up to with reverent awe. It has converted the physician, the lawyer, the priest, the poet, the man of Science, into its paid wage-labourers. The Bourgeoisie has torn away from the family its sentimental veil, and has reduced the family relation to a mere money relation.

You know, I have been debating for a while now about bringing it back. I never changed it because I grew tired of it. I simply wanted a new flag to show a stark contrast between before and after the coup. Now that its solidly established that Netz is indeed the Empress, and the old system is defunct, I may bring it back.

The car is a total loss tho. Yesterday (when the accident happened) I had it registered for just 2 month and 2 days. I was glad that I was able to find a cheap (price, not state) that's in good shape back then. Now I can look for a new one. :/

Minnesota Dakota, Percyton
Not an RP mod, but as far as I'm aware, the only conventions of war here are: No nukes, and no godmodding/unrealistic RPing.
I am fine, how are you?
Penguania And Antarctica, Percyton
I will let our actual RP mods chime in on anything extra, but regarding the map there are 3 rules.
1. Because not everyone will always have the time to commit to RP, and the like, at any given moment it would be unfair for them to lose territory or otherwise simply by not being as active as someone else, all wars must be given consent to.
2. It is against the rules to attack through or from within neutral nations, or unclaimed territory. It is technically possible for you to attack over neutral, and unclaimed territory via the air, but unless it can be shown that your aircraft could indeed have made the journey to and fro, its still a bit of a no-no. There is a good reason for Rule #2, that I can explain in further detail if needed.
3. It is against the rules to attack, or annex unclaimed territory without the consent of the Cartographer(me).

So no international rulings against say flamethrowers or weapons designed to injure?
Nope. I mean, in character, people may frown upon it coughKalcough, but as far as I am aware there is not an RP rule against such.
I want to speak to your manager
Jaslandia, Percyton
Depends. There aren't bans on them, but you'll probably be condemned if you're needlessly cruel.
Like, at one point a country bombed a neutral village in a war and then used the civilians who died from it as the justification to enter a war for real (They claimed the other side had attacked the village) but eventually the evidence collated such that it became clear that the country had done it. This pushed an ally of the country straight into opposition (Andy being the Ally-turned-enemy) when they found out about the actions through a report of mine.

Gordon: Yes that's sad too and all, but to attack a Limited train! It's... it's... disgraceful!
James: Disgusting!
*silence*
Gordon: Bear, since Henry is still at the Works, this is the part where you say his line "despicable".
Bear: Nope, not doing it Gordon.
Gordon: But it's tradition!

Bear: I'm not playing along with your wrongfully-placed indignation at a railway accident.
Gordon: But Bear!
Bear: No!
Percyton can also attest to the tourist value of excellent transport.

Map is updated. Pretty sure I did not miss anyone. However, stuff happens. So if you do not see your request on there, let me know.

We're like Mussolini. We make the trains run on time.

To make this easier, if anyone else wants to ask me if they can invade me, yes i am perfectly fine with being invaded by anyone, you dont need to ask me.

And as you can tell by Gordon's little outburst, having the trains run on time is also very important in Percyton. Though, we don't always succeed in that regard.

if any nation wanting to attack us doesnt know how our nation looks this should be good enough

Excellent work. Uh....If it's not an issue, can you re-color mine? I would prefer a scarlet plot. (I will, of course, be fine with a navy blue as well. No hurry, as I know you JUST updated it today)

I do not like telling people no, so I am not. However, it may not be possible for me to do this. I mean if it happens, its gonna be a long time from now.

I was just wondering if you folks had a "Geneva convention" type agreement in place.
I don't plan on being a maniac or anything, just seeing if there were international laws I had to abide by.

Oh my gosh I have a new (kinda) neighbor! Hiya Mechadarra :D

Ok. So the map is now relatively stable. The only thing I really have left to do is tweak the populations, and I will probably get around to doing that someday.
With that being said, I would like to announce I am now willing to entertain the ideas of colonies, and land expansions. On a limited, case by case basis - approval, or denial will be completely arbitrary
