Region: The Confederacy of Free Nations
Emperor: ... Bring me Admiral..... i have a few words for him..... my beautiful fleet..... Navy= 30 battleships (year 1980) 312 submarines year (1960) 60 escorts (year 1998) 3 carrier ship year (2007) WHAT THE HELL DO THE UNIONISTS MEAN THAT THEY LOCKED DOWN THE CHANNEL?! If the admiral doesn't show up within the next 10 hours we throw him to the sharks!
(so let me guess, the trap failed completely? asking since we didn't receive any news about it before)
K, if you need anything else just ask, we can offer for the most part anything, anyway i go back to waiting for my admiral.... still not sure whether to execute him for incompetence or not.
Russkov Soviet, Percyton
i am starting to think that we should make some sort of a show called: Can you survive your Leader's anger? Considering bad news after bad news seems to be the common theme this week.
Russkov Soviet
hey wassup, my name means something like "gate of hell" so welcome
Russkov Soviet, Penguania And Antarctica, Percyton
expensive but fun :)
Russkov Soviet
I went back and looked. I don't see anything about a trap. I could always re-run the sim. xD
You've had some success. You've almost reached Minsk, your halfway to Mosc- Mareskov, and some gains have been made. Unfortunately, surrounding Leningrad is proving hard and Red Army troops are threatening to cut off a portion of the troops nearby. And maybe, just maybe, having a show like that will help your leader calm down and instill more fear into those who might disobey.
Spanelsko
OOC i meant the naval battle that we tried to make, one of our earliest posts, which also combined the attack on your base on Sodor.
IC
Emperor: I am very calm comrade, well..... except few times but it usually lasts until the execution. I have decided to make that show a reality, might be a good entertainment for people and might even make some money through gambling (betting on how or who dies)as for Leningrad..... i calling back the army to the position where they retreated before... however i might as well use something as a repayment for these failures your army causes.... i have given the order to cease fire on the 20th of December, if you manage to hold out against us we will likely give up and prepare for ending this war. It will also make my forces actually try a bit harder now that they lost 2 days of time. I wonder if the officers understand that this might be a literal ´´dead´´ line for some of them.
ALSO since we are talking right now.... where would you prefer to discuss a possible peace agreement? So we know for later.
Russkov Soviet
This Friday or Saturday, which would be the 21st n' 22nd timeline wise. And I had to dig deep to find it, but I did. I'll re-run the battles to see if it did it right. (Good luck on your "dead"line. )
Spanelsko
Thank you, and yeah time moves quite quickly.
After the war i suggest some parting on some island in the Mediterranean Sea and forgetting it for the most part, well that is at least my plan for future, we can always invite you if you want to... and your plan comrade?

Mercunova, Spanelsko
hopefully it will be better next time nurem. (even through i am not sure what exactly branded clothing is)
*searching on the internet intensifies*
Nuremgard
I bought stuff from Superdry.
Spanelsko
well..... i haven't heard of them (and i am in the UK so fail on my part) but according to what you said they aren't the best right?
I never said anything like that.
i know i was just guessing considering your earlier comment on capitalism.
Not sure yet. I'll have to think. At work still.
Spanelsko
I was just joking because the stuff I got was expensive.
Mercunova, Spanelsko
k, have fun at work. (well unless you hate your job... in that case it would be hard to have fun)
Russkov Soviet
oh right, sorry i am not the best when it comes to jokes like these.
Nuremgard, Mercunova
I like my job, just hate training new workers who are just gonna quit a week later.
Spanelsko
well no one likes people like that, never understood why people do it... i mean if its a health issue or something like that i can understand but otherwise its doesn't really make sense to me.
Russkov Soviet
I'm the deli's delivery driver manager, so I can safely say that most people either quit cause they have to actually work, or because we use our personal vehicles for delivery.

yo anyone have the wikipedia like format for factbooks?

"The degree of civilization in a society can be judged by entering its prisons."

I prefer the more expansive quote of:

protected and highly esteemed, but how it treats the poor, the disfavoured and the
disadvantaged
Bryan Stevenson
But it's all true nonetheless.

The Issue
Healthcare in Spanelsko is widely acknowledged as among the best in the world. Hospitals have seen a steady influx of patients from abroad. However, with so much medical tourism, there are claims that this is making it difficult for native Spanelskoans to access their own healthcare system.
I am not sure if Propaganda ministry failed me again or if this really is the case..... but how did anyone get passed the guards and walls around our nation? i believed we had closed borders... who let the foreigners in.
Russkov Soviet, Nuremgard, Penguania And Antarctica
I got that issue the other day too.
Spanelsko
I was randomly looking though your Factbook:
Nuremgard First
Nuremgard First is a nationalist, populist party that is anti-immigrant, very socially conservative and has an aggressive, expansionist foreign policy. It seeks to give political power to the monarchy and claims to stand against the decadence of capitalism but also opposes the extremes of communism. It wants to create a syndicalist economy to foster what it calls "class harmony" and "instil unity" by having a much more centralised state with a powerful federal government.
So are these National Syndicalists? If yes then i support them, make Nurem great again!
Russkov Soviet, Nuremgard
Imagine if Donald Trump was a national syndicalist.
Nuremgard, Spanelsko
They are indeed. They want to remake the entire economy.
He wouldn't know what it was. The big words would confuse him.
Spanelsko
Bit of a random news but: The October of 18th (2018) has now become a public holiday in Spanelsko.
Reasons: Today the Leader was crowned as The Great Khan
We made our national Anthem (took us long enough to make one...)
8 when on its side represents infinity thus it being declared a holy number as chaos has no end.

You suppressed his post. I unsupressed it already. I think it was just an accident.
Ludania is currently an autocratic, theocratic, communist monarchy which practices feudalism.

Hi all I'm interested in proposing the following resolution to the World Assembly. I need endorsements from some of my fellow members to propose the action, feel free to comment and make suggestions!
The World Assembly,
Cognizant of the necessity to promote high levels of inclusiveness, as measured by the inherent metric, in regional judicial systems,
Alarmed by the growing number of judicial nominees unable to executive fair and prudent judgment on laws pertaining to underrepresented citizens,
Having considered the appropriate measures necessary to ensure equitable treatment before the law of all citizens regardless of individual or group identity,
Defines a judicial system as, but not limited to
Supreme Courts,
High Courts,
Regional Courts, and
notes with approval the ability for independent and internationally recognized regional organizations and bodies to define their own judicial systems;
Encourages all regional organizations and bodies to ensure that all judicial nominees, appointees, and elected officials are within the top 25% benchmark of inclusiveness within its own specific region;
Further recommends a regional review of all current judicial officials to ensure that their inclusiveness benchmark falls within the aforementioned range and endorses the appointment of new judicial officials in place of officials that fail to meet the requirements established by this solemn body;
Strongly condemns efforts in individual nation states, regional bodies, and within The World Assembly to undermine the independence and prudence of independent judicial bodies;
Authorizes the present resolution to become international law upon passage in The World Assembly;
Decides to remain actively seized in the matter.
Russkov Soviet, Penguania And Antarctica, Lex Caledonia, Mercunova
Terribly sorry for the silence, but I have been incredibly busy. Thankfully, I've managed to devote at least an hour or two a day to finishing up our little conflict. And... It looks like it is OFFICIALLY over, at least by the numbers. I'm posting this at 2 in the morning, and I have to be at work at 8, so I won't have details. I don't have much to say in the way of a treaty or terms of surrender except... Pull out your remaining troops, about 35,000 or so. I had a few others, but I'm feeling generous. (Don't do it again, or the nukes fly. xD)
Spanelsko
So a victory, finally. (still in denial) Order 198 has been declared, all remaining forces will stand their ground before official treaty is signed. We are fine with leaving, but we demand greater autonomy for Baltic nations, basically something like Confederacy for them within the Union. (we did promise them something so we can't back down that easily) But we would be fine with referendum on that too, considering that both sides suffered greatly. We can also do war reparations if needed for this to happen (i keep my word to my Baltic friends.)
OOC
And why do you post this at 2 in the morning?! :p It can't be that important to waste your sleep time when you need to work.
Anyway good night to you, and hopefully the treaty won't be that much of a mess :p
Russkov Soviet
The Talking Point
The children of Spanelsko are often remarked upon for their cheery attitude to extreme violence.
This makes too much sense.
Russkov Soviet
I can definitely work with the Baltic autonomy. And I posted at 2am cause I took a nap earlier and screwed up my sleep pattern. >_<
Spanelsko
Have you submitted it to the forums as a draft?
Generally the WA gets very antsy if people propose without going through a drafting phase on the forums.
Bearlong, Russkov Soviet, Penguania And Antarctica, Wentworth On Grantham
I ended up getting feedback back about using regions. Apparently its illegal to draft legislation unless its referencing sub-divisions of nations. Ill rework some things and post it as a draft in a few days.
good in that case, war was great, let's prepare for another one in the future. (not Ruskov this time, probably)
general retreat has been ordered as well as cease fire.
I will personally sign the treaty in Moscow or anywhere for that matter, its up to you comrade.
OOC
Well that explains a lot :p hopefully it won't affect you much :)
Russkov Soviet
The signing of the Baltic Concordant will take place on the decks of the E.Q.N. Sevastopol, the only WWII battleship still in service with the Navy, and will be anchored at Saint Petersburg. Commander Ulvariovich, released yesterday, will oversee your side. Major General Korva Petrovic will over see our side, and I will also be present as well. I also fear for the enemy that incurs the wrath of both our armies.
(OOC: It doesn't usually affect me, but I will probably go to bed a little earlier than normal to catch up.)
Spanelsko
Ok works for me, i will travel by plane to Riga in the next 5 hours, from there i will use a small vehicle provided for me by my friend, its an armored vehicle but without any guns, its mainly for looks rather then action, air force (what remains of it) and navy have been called home as well, it will be interesting meeting you for the first time in person, also i doubt that anyone would be stupid enough to try to fight us both at the same time, you have technological advantage and we have morale as well sacrificial advantage.

Happy 22nd Birthday Au Minbo!! I hope all your birthday wishes come true and that you enjoy this day with the people you love and which love you. :D

Why?
N-Day is the nuke day right?
Russkov Soviet
Yup
Spanelsko
first time doing it, i saw something about teams... does that mean i can bomb anyone in our region as long as they are in different faction? Or have i misunderstood?
Russkov Soviet
I believe so?

k, this will be a lot of fun... well for anyone who isn't spammed with nukes by me endlessly trying to eradicate the world but yeah.... may the apocalypse be fun for everyone :)

Consulship Announcement
By mutual agreement of the two Consuls, pursuant to all relevant provisions of B024 The Border Security Act, the following individuals are prohibited from re-entry into the Confederacy, as there is a reasonable suspicion that this would cause a breach of the peace: [nation=noflag]Baxten[/nation], [nation=noflag]Tserra[/nation], [nation=noflag]Sulania[/nation] and [nation=noflag]Kalaron[/nation].
A factbook in this nation will be created to record all present and future decisions of this kind.

I did it last year and I don't feel like spending an entire day playing tactician. My country did survive last year with minimal damage however when I was in 10,000 Islands, one of the bigger targets of that year.
Russkov Soviet
I have a bad feeling about this. What happened to Rechtstaatlichkeit in this region?
Bearlong, Lex Caledonia, Yukona
This just screams bad idea.
Penguania And Antarctica, Lex Caledonia, Yukona
And to add, I think this step was completely unnessecary. Everything was alright for month. But now old grievance is re-activated. Sometime I think it's just done to have a bogeyman. A pretty common tactict throughout history.
Lex Caledonia
I've got to agree with those above me. This just makes a us look bitter, we should adopt and live and let live approach. I'm also concerned this was immediately enacted without consulting parliament or the people of this region.
Yukona
Because it isn't necessary. The bill clearly says that it is purely a joint decision by the consuls.
I believe it's a necessary action. If they come back it'll just reintroduce the same divisions that drove us apart. I think the Consulship have taken a tough but necessary stance on this.
Mercunova, Anglia Imperium
A decision like this only brings more division to the region.
There are no signs of them coming back. I still think it wasn't necessary. They do their stuff and we do our stuff. But yet again the old feud is brought up again and again. It's tiring. Why don't we let them alone?
I don't agree.
They are being left alone, but actions like this cannot go unpunished. Can we all not forget that they telegrammed people specifically to drive them away with them because they found some people here distasteful. The ringleaders of that group have been levied punishment by this administration, one which I support. Everyone else who went with them has been given no punishment, as they did nothing but use their right to leave.
Yukona, Anglia Imperium
I have the 3rd Best Economy? NS, are you drunk?
Nuremgard, Spanelsko
For me it's still some form of retaliation. Or as you British say: another form of putting the boot in.
The issue "Much Ado about Everything" had a great thing about what is going on with today's ridiculous hyperoffended typical college level adults BUT the solution was banning the internet. If there was an alternate solution in the choice besides doing internet suppression, I would have chosen it but I dismissed it instead.

I wish I could get issues that would let me slash taxes.

Gorgeous can refer to men too. Especially my beautiful PM. :P
Russkov Soviet, Mercunova, Spanelsko
Right, right. Well... My answer still stands I guess. I've seen him and yes... He is a God among men.
Nuremgard, Mercunova, Spanelsko
Damn right he is! :D
Russkov Soviet, Mercunova, Spanelsko
Speaking of leaders.... I just had a thought run through my head... I fear the day that the Coltsov family does not rule the Equestrian Union. Oh dear.. And I'm an Autocratic State now...
