In the urban centers it's primarily market driven however outside of major population centers it is mostly planned and a lot of farms are owned by the government and government companies.

At 0800, troops of the 104th Rifle Battalion arrived at an abandoned airfield in central Waclia. Upon landing, Company A made contact with local authorities.
1050: Engineers arrived along with supplies.
1300: The Airfield is under construction and repairs.
1600: The first planes with Waclian supplies begin landing.
And troops began erecting security measures to keep the locals safely out of the airbase.

Small arms, lighter vehicles, transports, and IFV's are being shipped. Until I move to Russia proper (#23), the MBT's, heavier vehicles, and aircraft will remain in ESSR-controlled East Africa. (Maintenence is taking longer than expected due to rebel forces in the Congo.)

Greetings! We come in peace, without a land of our own and with only our tents and supplies. The Zhungaer people intend to camp in this region for an indefinite period of time, seeking only to trade goods and services.
Russkov Soviet, Jaslandia, Vista Major, Oelesa, Penguania And Antarctica
You are welcome to pitch your tents in Equestrian territory.
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica, Zhungaer
How large is your population and what good are you willing to trade?
Perhaps King Hyder III can accommodate you.
Welcome! I have a semi-nomadic peoples who reside as the natives of my nation, but I haven't fleshed them out in a full year, if you want to fill that role I'd be more than happy to oblige. Our government can easily allocate some specific land reserves that would be perfect for your use :D
Jaslandia, Zhungaer
NO! Keep that Genocidal maniac away from our new guests!
And I believe I haven't fully introduced myself.
My name is Aleksander Dimitri Coltsov.
I am the Premier of the Equestrian Republic of Russkov Soviet.
Welcome to the COFN!
Jaslandia
Alright. Don't know why but I guess I'll do that.
We have the latest tablets, and the finest chocolates this side of the Baltic Sea.
Zhungaer
My only question is why can't you just set up a poll? That's a lot easier.
Man, my taxes are so high.
It's little more than a popularity contest, full of pretentious and self-righteous snobs.
The level of toxicity in the WA and especially the SC is simply too much to bear.
Gwelmadio
Poll for what?
Gwelmadio
For the WA, I'm joining just to get our region a little more out there in the world so we can have new nations coming in. And a poll for the elections, or is that later?
WA doesn't really work like that. You just join it and you're some anonymous nobody voting on laws written by people so distanced from reality they make the United States Congress look like geniuses.
Kalaron, Gwelmadio
Lmao. I'll find a way.
Should I get a new flag or not? I'm kind of tired of this one. Should I?
Our Chancellor will be elected by regional poll. The rest of government will be elected by telegramed ballot. And I believe elections begin tomorrow.
Oelesa
How do I get into these elections because I want to run for Speak of the Parliament?
One of the Government positions is folded into a recruiter, and having NS polls as the sole means of election would take way too long since we can only have one poll up and would need it to be up for the whole voting period for each position. The only feasible way to make it work within our current voting periods without taking the better part of two or three months would be to make choices out of every single possible combination of candidates, and that quickly loses the "simplicity" argument.
So long as the people responsible for tallying the votes log each one down (And preferably gets a screenshot or recording of it for proof) it's fine.
Gwelmadio
[nation=short]Andromitus[/nation] and Oelesa will be supporting each other within the realm of our respective Nuclear Power Programs. A strong partnership in Nuclear Energy will pave the path forward to the future of our nations.
Jaslandia
So, I might be wrong, but isn't Perland running for MOIA and not SCJ, @Vista?
Also, I'd like to announce that I'm running for SCJ.

Post self-deleted by Andromitus.
I would like to second this notion, and am happy to announce the utilization of the Eurasian and American Ædenist Branch's to spread awareness of the benefits of Molten-Salt Reactors. The Anthropic Institute Society is also simply ecstatic about this new development, and hopes to further intertwine with the Oelesan Scientific society over time.
Oelesa
Speaker. You have to telegram Vista Major, it was in at least 3 or 4 regional telegrams. As a heads up, you're running against me.
Apply for citizenship by filling out the application pinned on the WFE and sending it to [nation=short]Penguania and Antarctica[/nation], and then send a telegram to [nation=short]The Confederate Papers[/nation] that you wish to run.
Oelesa, Penguania And Antarctica
Yuck
Isn't that a lot work for Citizenship?
And I just went over my options and I guess I'm ineligible for elections.
Wow hey so quick word of advice, Gwenmadio. Saying insulting things about this community is pretty bad...and I'm one of the founders here so yeah no.

Friedensreich
Lmao. Kind of douche to snitch on someone like that. Your being a pussy by snitching because that just means your unable to address the problem yourself in private.
It's not. You get World assembly status, which you have. Out down a couple of X's and then tg it. Three step process, takes no longer than 10 min and ensures that no voter fraud can occur.
Also don't worry, this is just a care taker for a week or two, the real government is elected later. This was a snap choice so we can at least have the Confederate Parliament running and a supreme court just in case. See we can't use the new constitution without a government. So better safe than sorry. Even if it is little messy and jam packed. Yayy democracy
You're being a little bítch by going behind an entire community of people's backs and talking good stuff about them.
Why don't you grow a pair and tell me if you got some problems?
Andromitus, United Continental States
Again, one of the Founders here, so...yeah.
It'd be kinda weird if I didn't take some offense for my friends regardless though.

If nothing else, it's refreshing to hear people complaining TO Kal about bad leadership and bad community, as if Kal is better than them. Usually Kal is seen as the prime example of bad leadership/community, so it's nice to know he's not the only accused bad guy here.
Oelesa
But really though.
He had some terrible luck in his choice :D
I was genuinely wondering if I was gonna get trolled right there, again!
Jaslandia, Oelesa, Penguania And Antarctica
This is going to get out of hand, so before you say anything, or anyone else throws around nasty comments, please remember that this game isn't something to get pissed off about. It's for fun, and if the CoFN isn't fun for you then you should just go. We love our region, and our friends. We have stuck together for years, going through so much crap. So if that isn't something you want to be apart of, then you should take your self out. If you want to give us an actual chance, then we will give you one.
Jaslandia, Kalaron, Penguania And Antarctica
Nah. Not giving him another chance. He blew that when both Andy and Kal proved him to be an impatient and needy crybaby.
Woah now, I didn't prove anyone to be anything, I just posted a pertinent message so that everyone, Gwen included, knows this Region is a family.
Besides, there isn't a reason to insult him, everyone knows what he did was bad including him.
Oel puts it best.

That reminds me, I'm endorsing my boy here^
Oelesa, Penguania And Antarctica
He has it right
First off, thanks Oesela for being the only reasonable person in this situation. Secondly, Friedensreich, I'm not being a b;tch about this, you're the b;tch for making a big deal out of a comment that criticizes a game, like, boii. And plus, I guarantee you do the same exact thing so that's pretty hypocritical. And lastly, Kalaron, it doesn't matter that you're one of the founders, if you have to speak for your friends, I respect that, but snitching is kind of stupid.

Ah, thanks Hyder. I know you're running for VC, but do you know how ironic it would be if you become Minster of foreign Affairs? Libertatem would have field day.
Oh, wait...That happened to us. [nation=short]Valturus[/nation].
Jaslandia, Confederacy Of Free Nations
Respectfully, insulting my friends in front of me will make me inform them. I'm really not into that whole "Sending messages back" through telegram thing when it's something that I really have no tolerance for like trying to recruit from our region or outright insulting my friends, so I don't think it's stupid to let people know what you said :D
Space Cat; Best Cat.
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica
Well, I beg to differ. It's not insulting, it's constructive criticism and you guys aren't going to like reality since life is criticism.
Firstly, you don't know anything me and I recommend you don't make assumptions, but I do know enough about you to know that you're not someone that understands people won't kiss your rear end.
Secondly, lmfao. You're going to talk smack about people behind their backs then say they're making a big deal out of it when they find out about it? Great logic there, buddy.
Rainbow Space Cat Founder is out of touch with reality. Reality is subjective. Rainbow Space Cat Founders reality is rainbows, and cereal, and sugary drinks all floating on a bed of stardust, and life itself.
Jaslandia, Oelesa, Penguania And Antarctica
Not on my watch
Jaslandia, Oelesa
Criticism like you're talking is generally constructive, like, "Hey, I don't know things because I'm new; Maybe y'all could ease up?" rather than "...impolite assholes who have no business running a region" which is really a complete non-starter.
That said, I respect our ability to agree to disagree.
Jaslandia, Republic City Police, Friedensreich, Penguania And Antarctica
Calling people 'a**holes' is not constructive criticism, and your message certainly didn't give any indication you were trying to make those you insulted better people (which is what constructive criticism entails). Examples of constructive criticism would be: "I think this region could be more welcoming to newcomers", "I think Policies X and Y should be changed', "I think Law Z is unfair", etc.
Republic City Police, Friedensreich, Kalaron, Penguania And Antarctica, Confederacy Of Free Nations
Wanna FITE bro?
United Continental States
So, like, as a hopefully prospective Minister of Internal Affairs, I would like to hear some of this criticism. Just saying.
Jaslandia, Republic City Police, Vista Major, Kalaron
He's not worth it, babe
I'm not the one taking this game as seriously as you do, bro. I'm talking about someone behind their back because this exact thing would've happened if I had said it on the message board so this would've been practically unavoidable. And deadass, that logic is the right logic. It's constructive criticism, not smack talk. I'm saying they're assholes and they can be a little nicer about a newb. And I can do anything I please to do, because guess what, it's a game!
He ain't got none, that's why he only insults people that don't give him his way.
Nuh uh. You cannot eat Stardust. You are not Starlord. Starlord is an Orc named Cheif Sleeps with Men. He is my husband.
Vista Major, Kalaron, Penguania And Antarctica
Boi I'll put you in the ground
Oelesa, United Continental States
Nah man, I ain't taking anything serious. Apparently you are though, because.... again, like 3 people have shown messages of you insulting people you don't even know. Like, how hypocritical can you get? Lol.
Like Jas said: "asshøle" =\= constructive. Fr, who taught you how to speak to people?
Republic City Police, Oelesa, Penguania And Antarctica
Lmao. It's called a cafeteria definition, you can alter it a little and still call it the same thing, clearly, your resource-class mind doesn't cope with that. And yes, I am, I'm telling them that they could be a little nicer to a newb, like, bruh. Deadass though, it's a word, it's a series of letters, so what, it's vulgar, get over it. And plus, that practically what I was saying, just, you know, a shorter ruder way.
Oelesa
So...
You put constructive criticism meant for the people you were talking about...in a private telegram to a random dude that you then called a snitch for showing said constructive criticism to the people it's meant to improve somehow?
Oelesa
And I apologize for trying to eat stardust, it deadass looked like Kim K's ass.
Oelesa
Someone please eject this guy^
He expects us to be nice to him when all he does is insult people and try to rationalize it away with childish "cafeteria" logic.
Oelesa
Well, we're not getting anywhere by fighting back. It's best if we maintain a cool head. If all he has are insults, then let's be above that. But if he has something constructive to say, I'd rather hear it out to see where it leads.
Jaslandia, Republic City Police, Oelesa, Kalaron, Penguania And Antarctica
Well here it is now! The people are seeing it, now it contradicts the fact of what you're saying. The people I called a-holes are seeing this. You guys are a-holes, change it! How was that butter-cup.
Ok look. I am going to ask one time. Please stop using profanity, and foul language on the RMB. Like your not even censoring it.
Jaslandia, Republic City Police, Kalaron, Penguania And Antarctica
You're dangerously close to being dealt with in less kind manners
Jaslandia, Republic City Police, Penguania And Antarctica
And what? You being a little b;tch and wanting to find the easy way out and ejecting me? That's not very nice of you. How abut you finish the argument you started?
And fr tho, I have cool ass head.^^^
Besides, life is better when we're all happy :D
Rainbow Space Cat Founder! I summon you to attack Tim's cookies directly!
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica
1. And as I and others have pointed out, starting by calling those you disagree with 'a**holes' is a surefire way to make people ignore your complainants and instead assume you're just raging and lashing out.
2. I get the point you're trying to make rhetorically, but that's factually untrue. You need to follow the rules of our region, the rules of NationStates, the rules of whatever country you live in, and maybe a few other miscellaneous rules. And that's just the literal rules, and not counting the limitations imposed by the mechanics of NS itself.
'Cafeteria definition'? You're going to need to define that for my 'resource-class mind' (what kind of resources? Coal? Iron? Bananas? Are they valuable resources?). And it's not just 'vulgar': Saying 'sh*t' or 'f*ck' is vulgar. Insulting and demeaning people is not only being rude, but it closes out productive conversation. If I called you an a**hole, I doubt your first reaction would be "Wow, this guy makes some very good points. I should hear out his arguments and listen carefully to his proposals."
Also, from a practical standpoint, NS usually censors curse words on the RMB, so you might want to cool it with your language, unless you want to get in trouble with a higher authority than even us.

Jaslandia, Republic City Police, Penguania And Antarctica
We're actually not, and I have a reputation here for being chill and never serious. If you want evidence of that, I'd like to remind you that I was once in your shoes, new to COFN, and they welcomed me without much friction at all.
But this talking smack behind people's backs is something I will not tolerate. Especially when they don't deserve it and have done you no wrong.
[nation=short]Gwelmadio[/nation], lets shift the conversation. What would you do instead of what our government is doing? Share us your ideas so we can really get the full scope of your constructive criticism. More times then not the world doesn't give people the chance to share what they think is better, so please do.
Jaslandia, Republic City Police, Sulania, Penguania And Antarctica
In waiting for you to respond to me, booboo. Last I checked, I had said something last, to which you haven't said anything back.
As has been pointed out before, such rudeness and insults are not accepted here; what I quoted above is simply the most blatant example. Gwelmadio, knock it off!
Jaslandia, Andromitus, Kalaron
That got me laughing so hard, like, of all the people to try and stage an exodus with

Do you like waffles?

Totally un-radical, brah
Jaslandia
Gwelmadio this is now a warning, you're new to this community and this game and I'd really like to get to know you and what you want to happen. We personally got off to a rocky start, to which I would now like to apologize publicly for, and you have had your growing pains with the region as a whole. So how about we let off this topic, we all cool off, and you get learning on how things operate, and while not everyone currently feels that way, I'm happy to give you another chance; Plus I'm a Mentor here in the CoFN and am happy to help you in any way I can.
Fried, I know you can get a little heated but I'd like for you to hold it right there, cool your jets and lets give Gwelmadio... ... ...a piece of general acceptance
Jaslandia
Yes! With lots of syrup and butter!

I don't accept people who are deceitful and self-entitled.
And you know I'm never like this. It's just that when someone attacks people I like, I get extremely protective.
I liked the comment but I am horrified at the content 0_o
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica
Its even better if the waffles are still hot, and you use cold fresh out of the ice box lunchmeat. Oooh, and it has to be Cajun Spice Roasted Chicken lunchmeat.

Ah well, took quite a while but replied to all international condemnations as well as hosted a human sacrifice, feel accomplished!
