The Russian palaces are awesome. I'd love to go see them sometime. I want to see the Winter Palace, the Catherine Palace and the Peterhof. Other palaces on my list to see are Versailles, Schönbrunn, the Hofburg and the Forbidden City.

What about Sanssouci, or the Neues Palais, or Charlottenburg Palace??
Nuremgard, Jaslandia, Lavan Tiri, Yukona
Germany has nice palaces too.

I have been reading a series of articles by a pro-Scottish independence website. The articles detail small, successful independent countries to show Scotland could be just like them. Your country was the second installment of the series. Brief but noteworthy.

Same. Those palaces are on my list too. Alongside Wilanów Palace, Belvedere in Vienna, and Łazienki Palace.
Those are also places I'd like to see. Sanssouci especially.
Nuremgard, Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica
Sanssouchi was the private retreat of Frederick the Great, wasn't it?
Jaslandia, Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica
Indeed. It was Frederick the Great's summer palace.

Nuremgard, Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica
Nope, just there. People are just generally not friendly by a western standard so it could have been covered by that but these people were openly hating on the British and they weren't ashamed about it lol
Jaslandia, Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica
He was Catherine the Great's rival but despite that, he apparently had a lot of respect for her.
Jaslandia, Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica
I have heard of Russians being quite hostile to foreigners. To be honest that's what puts me off wanting to go.
Jaslandia, Lavan Tiri
Ouch. If they were hating on the British, I imagine they would treat an American even worse.
Same. That, and with the diplomatic tension and sanctions between the U.S. and Russia, I'm worried I'll encounter some sort of hassle either leaving for Russia or leaving for America. That, or some new sanctions might leave me trapped in Russia or something, or worse. I just don't want to risk it.
Nuremgard, Lavan Tiri, Yukona
Yeah it wasn't directed towards us out of being British it was because we were western due to the other things they said to us
Jaslandia, Lavan Tiri
I'm also not keen on the country's anti-gay stance.
Jaslandia, Lavan Tiri
Eh, depends to be honest. Right place and the right time and you properly connect with them and you'll make friends for a life time. Wrong person wrong place and you've got yourself a problem
Nuremgard, Jaslandia, Lavan Tiri
Nuremgard is basically a very Europeanised Russia. Wish it was more like that lol
Jaslandia, Lavan Tiri
Ah. Sounds like they don't really care about nationality then, as long as you're Western.
True. Didn't think about that. I shouldn't have to worry about that since I'm straight, but you never know.
Nuremgard, Lavan Tiri
If only Dunfermline was still around. Don't forget the UK has some amazing palaces and castles
Nuremgard, Jaslandia, Lavan Tiri
Windhelm ftw
Lavan Tiri, Yukona
My sister and I were planning on visiting the Harry Potter studios in London. She said while we were there, we could also visit the palaces. But she hates the royals and doesn't like history in general so she wouldn't like it very much. There was a 10 hour tour available which did Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle.
I have nobody (besides my mum) who is into the palaces and royal history. My mum cant go as she is too unwell.

I wish my Europe Trip covered more of the palace stuff when we were in London. I would have loved to see Buckingham Palace, Kensington Palace, Hampton Court Palace, and Windsor Castle. Still, we at least got to see the Tower of London and the Crown Jewels, and we went to a bunch of museums.
Welcome back, Lavan! Good to see you again!

I'm doing good. Quit university and now starting an apprenticeship instead.

Heyo Jazzy! What's doin'?
Jaslandia, Percyton
Apprenticeship?
*has flashbacks to The Rangers Apprentice*
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica, Yukona
What's your apprenticeship in? What trade are you preparing for?
Nothing much. Went to Europe back in June, applied for college, and now I'm starting to look for a job.
Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica, Percyton
I love history and I'm fascinated by the royals (even if I'd prefer not to have them), but even I think I'd be pretty close to walking into a bullet after 10 straight hours of palaces.
Was this English?
Nuremgard, Jaslandia, Lavan Tiri, Percyton
True, it is a big tour. Even I probably couldn't handle that. I'd rather just visit Buck Palace, Windsor Castle and Kensington Palace separately for about an hour or so.
I'd also like to see Holyroodhouse Palace the next time I'm in Edinburgh.

One of my new issues I submitted got accepted: Vexing VAT. Look out for it.
Jaslandia, Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica, Percyton
Nice Nurem :D, whats it about?
Nuremgard, Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica, Percyton
It's about businesses and consumers complaining about Value Added Tax or sales tax as it's sometimes called. The options are: abolish it, increase it but decrease income tax to try and soften the blow or decrease VAT on basic necessities and raise it on luxury items.
I chose the third option for Nuremgard. I'd love to decrease our income tax rate but in NS Land, decreasing taxes makes the poor poorer. I have been working hard to increase the poor's income so I was afraid of what abolishing or increasing VAT would do to their incomes.
Jaslandia, Lavan Tiri, Percyton
Are you sure that's not how it works in real life as well? I would be a lot richer if I could use all of my income you know
Lavan Tiri
Lavan! Welcome back! We missed you!
Goodnight, Peng!
Congrats, Nurem! Looking forward to answering it when I get!
Nuremgard, Jaslandia, Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica
Let's not get into another tax debate please, for the love of God.

Heil, grammar Nazi.

This is extremely over-represented in the media. It's not like we Russians can subconsciously sense who's gay. The only issue you may even have a possibility encountering in the big cities, is if you explicitly go out of your way to display something with an obvious intent of provoking a reaction from somebody.
Smaller cities are extremely underrated by foreigners, as an example, the Kremlin in Moscow at this point is a tourist/cultural icon, with minimal actual traditional use, whereas other cities with their own extravagant cathedrals (surprisingly a very large amount of cities have nice architecture, with quite a few actually being comparable to Moscow) would actually have them operating as they would hundreds of years ago.
Did you just assume my gender?
Jaslandia, Lavan Tiri, Andromitus
Nah, just saying that you're better than you think :D
Lavan Tiri
You mean act camp. Just say it. And don't see how acting that way would "provoke" anybody. If anyone is threatened by a camp guy, so much so they're "provoked" into a reaction then clearly that person needs to reassess their mental stability.
Cheers.
Jaslandia, Lavan Tiri, Kalaron
Possibly by complete mistake. Sometimes I have no idea of the gender behind the nations. If I offended you, I'm terribly sorry. I wasn't sure of which one it was and I didn't want to classify you as an "it".

Lavan Tiri
I may or may not be a female
Russkov Soviet, Lavan Tiri, Yukona
It means effeminate.
Lavan Tiri, Yukona
What counts as "displaying something"? Walking down the streets holding hands? Acting like a flaming queen? Shïtting a goddamn rainbow onto an effigy of Vladdy Daddy?
And anyway, why would there be an issue?
Jaslandia, Yukona
This is the nation you're referring to I believe
http://i0.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/newsfeed/000/949/916/550.jpg
Jaslandia, Lavan Tiri
Acting like a flaming queen would count as "displaying something". I doubt many would care about holding hands of the same sex, and even fewer would actually notice.

Got my own issue about VAT twice now. Got it last night when NS accepted it and got it again this morning. At least it gave me a chance to increase the poor's income again.
And in Westeros, the King received an issue about restrooms. What a pressing matter of state.

I'm not sure if I'll be included in this regional timeline, but if I am, I separated from the United Kingdom (or whatever nation controls Britain in this timeline) in 1920, and I've been independent ever since. This article also has lots of info on early Sudrian history if you need it.

I'd be happy to include you, however in the scale of IC actions I don't know if we'll end up including the Sentient Trains for the MT RP; I'm all for Chimaera being allowed however Sentient mechanics that can be turned sentient just by using fuel from Percyton could become problematic. I think what I'd like to happen is you being included and your lore accepted, however the idea of Sentient Trains is regarded as Folktales and fringe-religious calls by the International community.

It might be a bit odd to call sentient engines 'folklore' when you can easily see them by going to Sodor, and it's going to be hard to negotiate with the government when the monarch and most of the ministers supposedly don't exist, but I'm willing to work something out. Is there a way we can compromise on all this?
Jaslandia, Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica
I would definitely be excited to work out a compromise; Perhaps foreign Mechanics can't accumulate the reaction, it's only Percyton mechanics made with Percyton metal and the brought to life with Percyton Fuel that can come to life?
And that would only be for your existance in the MT RP, any other RP you can play as you like :D

That's not really the case in the real world, but in this RP world, I can accept it. You have a deal.

I agree, Russians are a very friendly people if you get to know them on a more personal level, among all of the cultures which I have personally come across, very few people match the warmth and heartiness of us Russians.
Russians don't want to see stuff like this which is normalized in the west, to be normalized at home in the public in front of children, it is widely considered to be inappropriate for children's eyes in Russia: https://www.buzzfeed.com/angelamv/the-31-most-fabulous-gay-pride-parade-looks?utm_term=.ncB3aOqY#.ivd0QOxl

Lavan Tiri, Yukona
Yes I know it's considered inappropriate in front of children over there. That's one of the reasons why Russians are backwards. They conflate homosexuality with paedophilia which says more abot their sick minds than gay people.
Jaslandia, Lavan Tiri, Friedensreich
Woah, hey, Russians aren't inherently 'backwards'? That's not even remotely true. I get that being hostile towards gay rights might turn you off, but that doesn't mean you can say that every Russian has a sick mind.
Jaslandia, Lavan Tiri, Yukona, Neo-Icelandic Commonwealth
Not saying they all do. I'm saying the ones who do think like that certainly do. And since the homophobia seems ingrained from the top levels of society, i.e. the government, then yeah, the country is pretty backward in terms of gay rights. I'm not singling out Russia. Plenty of countries are backward, far more so than Russia.
