That's my catchphrase.
Connor is slightly ugly. This is the objective truth.

No it's not. Beauty is subjective.

Beauty is a spook
Fun fact, your body heat is visible out to 29,400,000,000 kilometers away, in space.
Penguania And Antarctica
Except if you're Connor, then you're not hot.
He probably runs hotter than a human though with his... reactor? However unattractive he may be.
He might actually need radiator fins attached to him though :p

Additional fun fact, if the Great Filter is real and keeps pushing species down, and it happens to be an alien civilisation (or more accurately, an autonomous relic of them) then it must have large, dispersed clusters of themselves that we would have to resist and destroy at any point of expansion.
My rap tracks heat can be seen from 420,000,000,000 km away

I'm not a fan of stamping on my peoples civil rights and political freedom, but the military MUST come first! I don't know how the numbers work in NS, but I was at 16,000+ in May of 2016. A week later I dropped to 6,000+, but began to recover til I hit the Feb '17 drop which put me at 2,000+. I am nearly at 7,000 which puts me at 20th in the CoFN. I just ask that you do not worry, for the people have agreed to this "tyranny". The Red Army has a great reputation, but we want to be even more powerful to be a force for the greater good!

So that's the second Japanese princess to lose her royal status because she is marrying a commoner. I don't blame her. I've heard stories that the lives of the imperial family are heavily restricted. Plus, she's getting the equivalent of one million dollars once she leaves so I don't think she'll be complaining.
The Japanese don't allow women to succeed to the throne and they're fast running out of male heirs. The issue is only compounded by the staunchly conservative government which refuses to even comprehend the idea of letting women inherit the throne.
Yikes. One of the few things the brittish monarchy did right was probably normalizing female regents and heirs. Speaking specifically on the japanese situation, I've read that the Japanese emperor himself has begged the people to turn japan in to a republic or at least let him resign. If that's true it really says something about the conditions in the royal family. I suppose the emperor is heavily tied to shintoism, so i see why that could be an issue though.
Jaslandia
The current Emperor will be abdicating next year due to his age and health reasons. There is no republican movement to speak of in Japan so the monarchy isn't going anywhere. It's important religiously (as you said, the Emperor is the head of the Shinto religion) and he also plays an important ceremonial role too. The Japanese are a deeply traditionalist people and nothing better represents that love of tradition than the world's most ancient monarchy.
They seriously need to get with the times though. Women cant inherit the throne and lose their royal status for marrying commoners. Princes keep their status if they marry commoners. But this sexist problem isn't restricted to the imperial family. Sexism is endemic in Japanese society.
Jaslandia, Axeldonia
Just to nitpick a little, the Government of Japan did state that Akihito would abdicate on April 30 next year.

Welp, rip the German Airforce.
Which is odd, because some of the most famous monarchs of Japan have been female. Like Empress Meisho, who ruled as Empress during the Tokugawa Shogunate for several years before abdicating. And her daughter, Empress Go-Sakuramachi, also ruled during the Shogunate quite well, and was very active in collecting matters of aristocracy such as poems, letters, and treatises.
Of course, you only have to blame that Meiji Reformation for that change....
Jaslandia
Yup. Japan has had 8 ruling empresses in the past who, you know, actually ruled the country. But according to Japanese conservatives, a dainty lady could not possibly handle the completely ceremonial and politically toothless position of head of state.
Jaslandia, Axeldonia
Empress sounds better than Emperor, if I accede to the throne of an Empire I'm taking the title Empress.
Nuremgard, Jaslandia, Gualimole
She's called an empress because she presses her will upon you. Get it? :P

Fun fact, because light bouncing from Terra takes approximately 27,000 years to travel to the galactic core, it will be -very roughly- 18,483 more years until light that hit some of the earliest buildings of Mesopotamia (over 8,517 years ago) actually reaches less the core.

Why do i have such bad conversation skills?
Russkov Soviet, Midasia
Do you? I haven't noticed.
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica
It seems so. Most conversations I have tend to end after exchanging 3 or 4 sentences.
So the possible reasons are:
a) people don't want to talk and try to avoid me
or
b) I have bad skills
Russkov Soviet
Hmmm.... Well.. Neither of those apply to me, so you won't have to worry.
Jaslandia
I understand what you say because I feel my own conversational skills are pretty bad. Like you, most of my conversations are short and I actually struggle to come up with something to say. It can feel awkward. With some people though, I can hold lengthy and interesting conversations. I think it's a matter of personality and finding people who have shared interests.
Either that or just blame the other guy. Their conversational skills are bad.

Hey Guys!
I'm Marristaria otherwise known as Maddie and I am running for Minister of Internal Affairs for one reason and that's simply better outreach.
I've been in this region awhile, heck I've been in the discord for well over a year now and I've noticed there is really not a lot of initiative to reach out to people on the RMB or who just answer issues to get more involved and I think that's a main reason why we lose nations so often and why we have stagnated.
I have zero idea what our recruitment is like and I believe a big part of why so many are in the dark is the lack of communication from government to residents/citizenry.
I want us all to feel like a better community and be a region worth reckoning with in more places that whatever it is we're known for. I joined this region for the community and I am getting involved because I want to see the community grow.
So if elected I'll promise the following:
Updated Dispatches with the correct headers and footers that link to the correct and current dispatches in use
Weekly Telegrams so you know what's going on and where you may want to do more for the region
Encouraged weekly game nights where we play... something, I'll take suggestions for that one!
So that's all I have for my platform, I wish the best of luck to my opponents and candidates for other positions, let's start a new chapter of the region today!
With Faith, Love, and a Little Pixie Dust,
Maddie

How about this for the next poll:
What is your favourite British nation? Can include Ireland. Or what is your favourite EU country?
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica
Weve done that one before and there are too many options for EU country
What is your favourite Greek god? Males only. And then what is your favourite Greek goddess? Females only. For each poll there are six options, all of them Olympians.

I figure since everyone else is making announcements, I may as well too.
Hello! I'm Bearlong and I'm running for Speaker of Parliament! I've got a long history with the office, having been the second person to ever hold the office in the CoFN expanded history [1] as well as the record-holder for the most terms as Speaker, albeit non-consecutively [2]. Regardless, I have many [3] ideas to bring to the post and make Parliament more active, but more on that soon, I promise.
Aside from my stints as Speaker, you know me to be a Clerk under Speakers Continental Commonwealth and Mercunova [4] and a well accomplished parliamentarian [5]. Anyhow, Parliament is an institution dear to my heart, and I want to help make it better, so please consider voting for Bearlong [6].
Thanks!
Footnotes
1. I first obtained the office after Markotovia's efforts to establish it and his subsequent term back in the CoN.
2. Ok, this one is kinda dubious, but I'm up there, right?
3. Like two-and-a-half, if I'm being completely honest.
4. Can you believe there was a time where Merc wasn't Chancellor? Me neither.
5. I'm the reason there are no political parties this election cycle. You can thank me later.
6. I'm literally the only choice so...

Out of the top 20 ranking teams, 4 failed to qualify for the world cup, 3 were knocked out in the group stage, a further 3 were knocked out in the round of 16 so far, and 10 more are still in. Japan, Sweden, and Russia are the only non top 20 ranked teams left.
Russkov Soviet, Penguania And Antarctica
Russia played a boring but quite tactical game, their preparation for penalties is what won them the game - bar Spain's poor runs. I like this world cup as the same old teams have been knocked off their perch, it's no longer decided before it's even begun and that makes it exciting.

Trump will meet the Queen when he comes to the UK. If I was her, I'd refuse to meet him. Her Maj should keep a corgi on her lap just in case he tries to grab the royal pussy. That way if he does, he'll get his fingers snapped off by the royal doggy.
