"As each viper agent walked out of the helicopter, the voice of the pilot rang out into the air: "Now!"
The agents broke into a desperate sprint, some of them, with crudely made jump jets, jumping into the helicopters, others dived towards the enemy."

Your Canine population is quite welcome here. In case you didn't notice.... I'm the Equestrian Republic. Of course... Penguins,Trains, and soooooo much more inhabit our lovely little region. Oh...where are my manners? I'm Aleksander Dimitri Coltsov. I'll route a couple of our major export lines to you. Lots of Rubles heading your way!

Literally the only difference between my RP posts and any other person's, is maybe pointing something out with their tail, or like growling when angry. There's really nothing about my nation in RP that's extreme in any way.
Jaslandia
But in any case if you don't want me in an RP, just be sure to tell me, and I'll just stay out of it.

It is a shame Merkel voted against the law but at least her coalition partners outnumbered her party.
Jaslandia, Oelesa, Penguania And Antarctica, Yukona
If it makes you feel better, he was pretty deadset that it wasn't even PMT before I talked to him about it.
His concession was that they're crude apperently.
Yukona
Coalition partner + all of the opposition :)
Nuremgard
Apart from Alternative for Germany which, as I understand it, is a far-right party.
Which party do you vote for, Peng?
Penguania And Antarctica, Yukona
That's a good question. I need to read the election programme of each party before I make a final decision.
Tho I can tell you parties I won't vote for: CDU and AfD
My tendency is going to the left but I have to read their programme first. :)
Nuremgard, Jaslandia, Oelesa
Ah, so you have no party loyalty but always choose between the left-wing parties. Awesome. I'd probably vote SDP or Die Linke if I was German.
Penguania And Antarctica
Yeah, SPD or Linke.
(Why are all the English speaking people abbreviate SPD wrong ?)
Nuremgard
It's because I keep saying it in my head as the Social Democratic Party rather than the Social Democratic Party of Germany.
Penguania And Antarctica
Well done Vista!
Jaslandia, Andromitus, Oelesa, Penguania And Antarctica
Hmm, but I mean it's their official abbreviation. :P

Ruhmia's tax agency is more feared than serial killers and terrorists. Civil rights went down.
"Wah! Paying tax to support a civilised society infringes on my rights! Wah!"
Shut up, pleb and pay tax to your Kaiser.
Jaslandia, Friedensreich, Andromitus, Penguania And Antarctica, Djo, Yukona
Oi, you better not be taxing the lower class! :P
Nuremgard, Andromitus, Penguania And Antarctica
It's amazing
Oelesa, Penguania And Antarctica
I think taxes are 47% but much higher for the wealthy. :P
I may have the Kaiser cut taxes in future.
Friedensreich
Cut taxes entirely by running on a market socialist system!
If you have an economy made entirely of government owned companies that hand over all of their profits, then use a government handled wage system to hand out carefully calculated wages to the employees, you're getting both a huuuuuuuge amount of government revenue and public support for no tax rates!
Nah, I'll stick with the mixed market economy. Most of it is private enterprise but there are some Crown corporations.
>Looks at 95.5 tax percentage
>Sees that the maximum wage is just twice the norm
Haha my people really pay for that stunning environment and RFID chips.
Now to ignore the angry revolution forming outside the Archon's house >.>
Nuremgard, Jaslandia
Trust me, the Norsk pay well for their fabulous public services and beautiful environment too. To the tune of 84% of their income!
Kalaron has an Archon? That's cool. So does Valyria.

Vista Major, Penguania And Antarctica
Yeah man, have since the first CFN.
I think that might be the only thing I've ever expanded upon about my nation...well that and that the Government owns the Military Complex. I almost pride myself that I'm a theoretical super-power in our RPs yet never personally involve myself for fear of upsetting someone with a poor performance.
Nuremgard, Jaslandia
Frankly, if I were ever to even make a second character...at all...it would be an emotionally clumsy sardonic engineer who is good at guns and bad at people.

Mixed economies..... ew

"Poor performance"?
No such thing!

Alright, grossly unregulated capitalism it is lol.

Jaslandia, Andromitus
Well, the people have spoken, and Vista Major's Constitution has won. Not the outcome I hoped before, but I still extend my congratulations to Vista Major and his supporters! Vista's Constitution is still a very fine document, and I am confident that it will guide the CFN into the future.

Trust me; my experience has shown that I am a very awkward person when it comes to RP.
I was knighted in Montaris and it was the single most awkward thing of my life, literally wanted to sink below my desk because it was so awkward. It didn't help that a guy who was also knighted winked at me.

My family's source of wealth for decades came from a sheet metal mill my great grandpa started and managed after coming back from serving in WW2 in El Paso, Texas.
So you're rich?
The United Providences Of Perland
Kinda, but nowhere as much as the rest of them. Because of some infighting that took place after my great grandfather died after I was born, my branch of the family (mom, grandma, great aunt, uncle, great grandma, great uncle) in Indiana and Michigan was pretty much cut off from the rest in Texas and Georgia. We still don't really talk to the rest of the family in Georgia and Texas except when there's a family crisis (last time I saw my great uncle Brett was in 2014 when my great grandmother died).
My great uncle Brett took over my great grandpa Arthur's company then sold it out a couple years ago after running it into the ground. The building that we had down there is still standing, and if you want the address to it, I don't mind sharing it.
Fair enough. A kinda rich communist. Odd mixture lol
