[spoiler=Spoiler]Qui-Gon took Anakin under his wing on a hunch that he had powerful Jedi senses, and thus could be the one to bring balance to the force and all that. Even when the Jedi Council told Qui-Gon that this Anakin kid spelled trouble, Qui-Gon trained Anakin anyway. At the end of the day, Anakin was going to be a problematic Jedi from the start (due to him being 'full of fear' and his training starting at a later age), and while Obi-Wan certainly wasn't prepared to deal with an unconventional case like Anakin, I'm not sure if anyone could have prevented Anakin's turn to the Dark Side; however, none of that would have been an issue if Qui-Gon just left Anakin on Tatoine.[/spoiler]

The book came out in 1925.

Good lord. Were they clever enough to know that or did they think the movie was the original?

Also, Great Gatsby is one of my favorite books <3

I guess. I just wasn't sure when the Star Wars prequels would pass into 'Rosebud' or 'I am your father' territory, if you get what I mean.

Well there are probably people who haven't seen the prequels, which is probably a good thing. But then again the prequels didn't really leave anything to be a shocker because it made it so obvious how things were gunna end up like it didn't spice things up at all which rly sucked.

So I had an interesting idea for our map and solving the land issue. This would radically change really everything, but I think it would make RPs go smoother and progress in a more realistic yet fun way.

Firstly, the new map would have pre-established nations on the map that you could stake claims for. The nations would each have a number, and you could simply telegram me the number you want and I can simply add you to the map. You could also telegram me if you wanted to be a state within another nation; I'd contact the land owner and get their permission if you would prefer to do that. This would make mapping out everyone much more efficient, and it would prevent super-empires from forming, reducing the chance off land shortages drastically.

Now, the second and much more radical idea would be to create a sort of geopolitical lore that each nation has assigned to them. We could create a whole world with a story that would allow us to form numerous scenarios that would let us form several different RPs. Of course you could add your own part of your nation's lore, and I would highly encourage that. I feel this would help invigorate the RP-side of the region and give people looking for more fun activities to do in the region a much easier time finding their place.

I feel that this plan would help our RP activity immensely, and it would allow us to increase the amount of more informal and fun activities within the Confederacy.

I'd actually support that idea a lot. I'd very much rather have my nation, which has had its whole entire rp in the past be based in eastern Canada, be a part of Latrovia than having to move it somewhere where it would just not fit the past history like somewhere in Africa.

I haven't looked through much of the rp, but from what I've seen it seems like it's set a few years in the future, whereas in the ESU (my former region in which Latrovia also was in) the rp was set in the present. There was an rp where a Kumanian princess married a Latrovian prince and at the time lost her right to be the heir to the throne but maybe perhaps in this future things could've changed and now the two nations are united.

The only problem is that Latrovia doesn't control all of eastern Canada and it'd require Senatus Popolusque Mercunovus giving up its control of its claims in Canada to either Latrovia or myself. I could do without the Canadian territory that Latrovia currently controls, but I cannot do without the Maritime provinces. Those lands were the heart of my nation with Halifax, Nova Scotia (aka Kumania City) being my nation's capital. It'd be like trying to have a United States without DC, New York, and Boston, an England without London, a France without Paris, an Italy without Rome, or a Greece without Athens.

If I cannot have the Canadian territory that SPM currently owns, then Kumania cannot participate in rp. Which is more difficult to believe, that about 55 million people (mostly concentrated in the disputed land) would live in eastern Canada, or that about 55 million people live in the highly undeveloped rural areas of eastern Canada that Latrovia currently owns?

Interesting. The first part could certainly work, and I've seen other regions do the same thing.

For the second part, I think creating an integrated geopolitical lore for all the nations on the map would be a good idea. However, each nation should create their own lore (we could possibly make it so all nations are required to have a brief geopolitical lore before they're added to the map), with the mapmaker then verifying each lore for coherence and whether or not it conflicts with other nations' lores.

Nations would create their own lore, such as their history and such and it would be similar to how you outlined it. However, I would (with their help) create their current geopolitical situation.

More than likely, N. America will be split into the 13 colonies, Eastern Canada, Cascadia, the NCR, Mexico, Western Canada (with Alaska), and I'm still trying to figure out things with the Central US.

I'd love to be the first to claim Eastern Canada. Basically all my nation needs is to be in a cooler environment with a sizable coast and then things could pretty much work out. And if I am given Eastern Canada and Magatronia is given New England, it might be like old times with him bordering me again, this time to my south. It'd probably make for nuking him easily if he's to the south of me rather than the west as my people wouldn't have to fear nuclear fallout raining down upon them thanks to winds blowing from west to east. :3

Just kidding odds are I'll never nuke him already been there done that. But then again sometimes things are more fun the second or third times around. :D

Responding on the RMB because open discussion is always an A+ in my book.

I'm the furthest thing from a fascist, but it is my understanding that we have are an accepting region and therefore I resent the preamble where it implies that we must be anti-fascist to be a signatory.

I also dislike infringements upon regional autonomy. Article V Section XVII, for instance. Also, why the devil are the sections enumerated without respect to the article they fall under?!

Writing a global unified lore would be great, but it would take a very long time and require a lot of researching of every individual in the region some of whom (like myself) do not have much information about their nation written down (mine's mostly memorised). It would also be incredibly inflexible for new nations. Frankly, I don't see it working out without being very clunky and unaccommodating.

Perhaps I shouldn't of used lore. I was really thinking of making the global, geopolitical situation. For example, say Unf and I are the major powers. I'd write them in the briefing of both myself and Unf. However, I'd write my own brief history and Unf would write his.

Ah, so you're talking about one big collection of everyone's own lore? I like it better, but I think it needs stipulations to prevent continuity problems. What I'm saying is, you need an editor who can tweak other people's lore to make sure nothing gets crossed over. I'd be prepared to do that if you'd like, since it doesn't seem like it could be that big of a job if everyone is detailed enough.

Latrovia, Lavan Tiri

Latrovia wrote:It will consume you much time though :/

I actually don't think it would.

Here's my interpretation of Bax's system and how it would work.

You have the factbook, a grand collection of the world as we know it in CoFN. Say you claim a chunk of central Europe. You're then tasked with writing a summary of your nation how it was formed, etc and especially the role it has played in the region its in up until now (like relations with your neighbours, wars, alliances, etc). You then send that to Bax who will then send that to all your neighbours who can use that in the crafting of their own lores (or can disagree and hash it out with the original writer, eventually coming to an agreement). This will result in a single interconnected unified lore but authored by everyone. When someone new comes along and signs up they get presented with the lore of their neighbours and asked to write their own lore (they can make changes, invent wars and alliances and the other players can change their lores as they see fit so long as they're in agreement). This means that we get a system which is continually changing and resulting in RPs which are infinitely deeper because you have this rich history of relationships and wars that can affect how your nation will view the nations around it.

Do you get it?

Here's my interpretation of Bax's system and how it would work.

You have the factbook, a grand collection of the world as we know it in CoFN. Say you claim a chunk of central Europe. You're then tasked with writing a summary of your nation how it was formed, etc and especially the role it has played in the region its in up until now (like relations with your neighbours, wars, alliances, etc). You then send that to Bax who will then send that to all your neighbours who can use that in the crafting of their own lores (or can disagree and hash it out with the original writer, eventually coming to an agreement). This will result in a single interconnected unified lore but authored by everyone. When someone new comes along and signs up they get presented with the lore of their neighbours and asked to write their own lore (they can make changes, invent wars and alliances and the other players can change their lores as they see fit so long as they're in agreement). This means that we get a system which is continually changing and resulting in RPs which are infinitely deeper because you have this rich history of relationships and wars that can affect how your nation will view the nations around it.

Do you get it?

This is actually better than what I was originally thinking. From now on, this shall be the new map reform I'm proposing, with changes from Unf

Lavan Tiri, Vista Major

Quick question though: What do y'all think about the preplaced nations. I know Unf doesn't like it, but hear me out: This would prevent the land issues we're having right now as well as prevent these super empires with tons of colonies forming. Another plus is that it'd make writing lore easy, as you know exactly where everyone around you is before someone claims it. I feel that if you know this already, you can get more specific with your lore and, when someone claims the land, all you'll have to do is work it out with that person and fill in blank spaces with names.

Forgot to mention that you could also take some neighbor land, but it wouldn't be anything ridiculous. Also, you could become a state inside other nations if you don't wish to do that.

I'm the furthest thing from a fascist, but it is my understanding that we have are an accepting region and therefore I resent the preamble where it implies that we must be anti-fascist to be a signatory.

I also dislike infringements upon regional autonomy. Article V Section XVII, for instance. Also, why the devil are the sections enumerated without respect to the article they fall under?!

I was going to say the same thing as ContComm about the fascist and numbering thing. Considering we have a few members here that are fascists, I don't think we should join an anti-fascist alliance, even if its one that emphasizes neutrality. In general, the CoFN/NGA/CFN has never been too big on joining big alliances, and I prefer we pursue an independent foreign policy, complemented by individual alliances and treaties with our closest allies.

Preplaced nations wouldn't be a bad idea, but we should be original with how we do it; I've seen other regions do it so that the preplaced areas are basically identical to the RL countries on the map, and I find that approach rather boring and restrictive.

Well I'd prefer to be my own independent nation, but if being united with Latrovia in some way would be the only way for Kumania to continue existing in eastern Canada on the map, then that is an option I'm willing to take. But my first choice is complete independence.

We'll see how it turns out. I don't want people pre-claiming land before the map becomes a thing. However, I'm gonna start on it now and hopefully finish it.
