Place a platoon from the Army to protect the grounds and another to follow you: do not cut them off from the outside world or from the chain of command, that helps them consolidate power and potentially lead to your death. Don't invest in mercenaries: someone can simply pay them more than what they're working for to kill you instead of guarding you.

So basically keep the Army happy and they'll look after me?

Yes, but you must also make sure they don't get too hung up on power: look for the treasonous officers that may commit a coup. If they attempt one and you survive, make an example of them to the rest of the men, show them that insubordination like that will not be tolerated.

For whatever division you form, I would also recommend against issuing them standard weapons within a reasonable degree. Something like the FMG-9 is plenty enough for your defence and puts them on a serious backpeddle if they try to coup you.

Hmm. I brought back my UK. I might be a benevolent dictator. Be socially liberal, look after my subjects with public services, allow freedom of the press, freedom of speech, protest etc. But I wont allow elections. It will be a benevolent autocracy.

Sorry to hear that, Kal- that’s really unfortunate. My parents have a breeders kennel, so I’ve seen quite a few dogs come and go. They’re definitely part of the family, and it’s always hard to lose them. If it’s any consolation and if you believe in that kind of stuff, I don’t think God would skimp on tennis balls, pigs ears, peanut butter, and ear scratches.

I got 50% but what is the difference between a military dictatorship and a military junta? Aren't they the same thing?

Nuremgard wrote:I got 50% but what is the difference between a military dictatorship and a military junta? Aren't they the same thing?

Military juntas imply that a council of officers are in charge of the country's affairs, while a dictatorship can be a junta or a state with just one strongman officer in charge of the state rather than sharing power.

To be honest I feel your number one problem is you demonise the people who disagree with you. You think they have some personal vendetta against your views when really they’re just average people voting to the best of their ideals. There’s all the reason to sh*t on the Conservatives, but it often goes too far.

It all goes too far even if they vote for policies that literally kill people? Because austerity is killing people. Voting for a party that is making people's lives a misery is not simply having different "ideals" or "opinions." It's vile.

I do so love the pearl clutching of right-wingers. "Oh, we are only voting for policies that will make the lives of the poor and disabled worse, how could you be so cruel and mean by calling us bad words!"

Tories legit believe that insulting someone based on their political beliefs is worse than someone dying because they got their benefits sanctioned. So excuse me if I don't respect their "opinions." Maybe if they didn't vote for such disgusting policies, I wouldn't demonise them.

Wow. I truly hope that Nathan Robinson has alternative employment because I don’t think journalism and political commentary are his strong suit.

I’m basing this opinion on this article alone, however. Which I truly found terribly written. It reminded me of the kid in uni who forgot to do the readings, so when he gets called on in class he grasps at straws for an actual point to make.

Apparently he's a also a Canadian professional ice hockey forward who is currently playing with Belfast Giants of the Elite Ice Hockey League (EIHL), so he's got that as a fallback career if journalism doesn't work out for him.

Axeldonia wrote:...And instead of rebutting his arguments you compare him to a schoolkid?

Well, he’s not... actually here. And you didn’t indicate in your post whether you agree or disagree with his position, so to rebut didn’t seem absolutely necessary as I may have just ended up arguing with myself. Which is something I’ve playfully teased others for in this region just a few days ago.

But, to your point, the entire thesis of his piece requires the reader to accept his limiting and poorly (if at all) defended definition of what people mean when they say (and understand when they hear) the statement “people you disagree with”. As much as I hate how often people accuse others of engaging in strawman discourse, this is essentially what he’s doing. It flies in the face of the core reason for writing any piece; instead of addressing an existing problem, he creates a problem by dint of his definition so he can then go on to address it. Which smacks of someone talking because they have to, not because they have something to say. Hence the comparison to an unprepared uni student.

Tl;dr He used tunnel vision so he could critique tunnel vision.

Happy birthday, Unf!

Welcome to the CoFN, Corruta! I'm Percy, King of Percyton and the #6 green engine on the Island of Sodor. I hope you like it here!

And your nation sounds very interesting! Considering Percyton is also a nation ruled by non-humans (sentient locomotives and vehicles, to be exact), and we've also been called 'cute', I think have a few things in common.

oh? you think your nation is strange? I know a nation that is literally a nation of sentient tanks.

Squid people. Axeldonia has squid people too. Do you two know each other?

Sentient tanks? There aren't any sentient tanks in Percyton (we have lots of sentient tank engines, though), but sentient tanks would fall under sentient vehicles, so that nation sounds very similar to our own. Who knows? Maybe those tanks were brought to life by the same forces that brought us to life?

Welcome to the CFN, Cor. As an aside, if you'll be RPing in the RP-General, there are some rules you should be aware of, I'll spare you most of them since I'm not sure you'll RP tho.

The only one I'll type out right now is this: While other species can be in the RP, have to be treated (in terms of RP) as being the same as a human. To give you an example, Rus has his race as horses, but they are not faster than a human, stronger than a human or tougher than a human.

If you do choose to RP, just ask me, Andromitus or UCT as to the rules, we'll take care of you.

Goodnight all. <3

Progressive-Conservative or

Liberal National?

The junior coalition partner will be named National or Progress, respectively

Progressive-Conservative, mainly because of the Canada imagery I get from you

Sounds like a reasonable rule. I shal follow it to the best of my ability.

Ah, so you do plan to RP then? This is the map and the rules are at the bottom, though there are a few minor rules left off of it (Stuff like, "You can't claim the top ten MBTs currently made in the world as being your own) but I can elaborate on pretty much any of them.

Alrighty, just a word of warning, however, Tse's life has gotten pretty wild recently so you might be waiting a bit. If in a few days he hasn't responded to you, I would recommend RPing without detailing exactly where you are.

No offense to Tse, but it's times like this that make me think we should have a Deputy Mapmaker. It's certainly possible to RP without an exact location, but it makes it a lot harder, since you don't know who your neighbors are, what things affect you, how much coastline you have, etc.

We are all strange in our own way. I'm a race of anthropomorphic equines, with a number of humans. Oh, forgive me.. Where are my manners? Welcome to the CoFN. My name is Aleksander D. Coltsov. I am the current Premier of the Equestrian Union and the Supreme Ruler of Russia. What can this war horse do for you?

Agreed, actually. The problem is finding a suitably neutral, active and informed person. I'll actually begin looking around for one, however.

Naturally, I'm pretty cautious since the RP has led some people to be really bizzare rather than chill, but I'll pull some questions.

RPs are where people show who they truly are. I too appreciate the irony.

TBH, psudo-science products that steal people's money makes me sad. Solar Roadways and the Hyperloop are good examples of this, too...Solar Roadways managed to get over two million dollars even :/

I agree, but I'm more worried about stuff like fake cancer 'cures' and other medical quackery. At least solar roadways and hyperloops can theoretically work, even if it'll be a very, VERY long time before such technology is viable.
