To prepare for the next administration, all government dispatches are being moved over to The Confederate Papers. Please be patient as the carryover is processed. Following the July elections, all government members will gain access to the account. For the meantime, the Minister of the Interior shall be granted access to the account for purposes of maintaining the citizenship roster.

Good luck to everyone! Love you all <3

We do, the majority of them are MT and on the RP map.

If you ever plan to War-RP, you should very likely make a factbook for it, and consider joining an alliance,

My first Campaign Message of this up coming election, come and read this region-wide message on my views and hopes for the Ministry of Justice during my time in office;

https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=841454

Hello! It is I, Rainbow Space Cat Founder. It is my intention to run for the Position of Rainbow Space Cat Founder. If I appoint myself to this position, I promise to give motivational speeches, such as the every popular, "Never fear, Rainbow Space Cat Founder is here!". Also it is my intention to continue doing things as I have been doing them, and that is to allow the Government of the CoFN to flourish, while keeping the region safe with my Rainbow Space Cat Founder magic.

Thank you for your time, and meow. ^._.^

Oh, yeah. [nation=short]Baxten[/nation], I had a question that has been bugging me for a while. So, you say that trading land with another nation is fine, but what about outright purchases of land from another nation- of course, only if they agree to it?

For example, if I wanted to purchase the Ryuku Island chain from Hyde and he agreed to it, would that be fine?

Oh yeah totally. Trading land is absolutely a thing. You can get land from other people, you cannot just "Take" the land. You cannot walk into an empty map spot, and go "This is mine now." Likewise outside of RP you cannot just decide the Ryukyus are yours. But you absolutely could buy them from Hyde. Or Trade.

Don't know what this talk is about CROSS leaving the region or throwing a coup, but to be honest if Mau's involved, I could already tell it's a bad idea. I'm just really hoping we can calm down and give Unf's RP a try. That means no bitching, no complaining, no stupidity, no childishness, no flaming, no pouting, and no pretentiousness. I just want one RP to go well. Or as well it can go by this region's standards.

No worries. I enacted a brief coup in the previous eruasian region, so it was more an in-joke than an actual plan.

Hey guys, would just like to very quickly announce my running for Minister of Foreign Affairs. You know me, I don't like to plaster my campaign everywhere so all I'll be saying is my major policy is to keep us out of large alliances and any defensive pacts which will mean we get lumped into other regions' conflicts and end up muddying our name. I'd very much like to increase the amount of direct involvement the people have in the ministry and would also grow our sister regions project to work more closely with regions we have a deep seated friendship like such as GR, AEGIS, VF and Libertatem.
