Region: The Confederacy of Free Nations

History

It almost feels as if we’re prisoners in our own nation,” protests Adele Tolkien, while being hauled off to custody by several officers wearing pegs on their noses. “As much as we love Spanelsko, not all of us want to live or work here, especially when there are better opportunities elsewhere. I was all lined up to take on an exciting new teaching job in Maxtopia, only for government goons to appear at my door to tell me I couldn’t. How is that fair? The ban on emigration must be lifted!”

Well you are prisoners you idiot. (issue about the ban on immigration)

Jaslandia

“Having a ban on emigration makes sure that our resources, I mean people, remain in Spanelsko,” reminds one of your most trusted, and sycophantic, advisers. “In fact, I’d recommend tougher enforcement of the ban. Oh! What about a massive wall surrounding our borders manned by armed guards? Huge guard towers! Tank and helicopter patrols! Freakin’ tigers with freakin’ lasers on their heads! We must spare no expense in keeping our iron grip - er, our loving hand - on every last Spanelskoan!”

I like this guy, so from now on this is a new law and we will build a wall to keep the french out and make them pay for it!

The Talking Point

Minefields are being deployed along the border to discourage potential emigrants from trying to leave.

Beautiful..... well except that we cant have the lasers on tigers..... but at least they can eat the people on the way!

Russkov Soviet, Jaslandia

'Shoot the Villager' has become a popular pastime in the nation's armed forces.

OOC this made me laugh

Oh dear... these bloody issues are really messing things up. Thanks to some issues, that I was unable to identify, uh...

The "Underwear of Women in Power" is now nearly sold out in our national Stalliongrad Times. .. While our mares are beautiful, they really resent such a thing. Everyone wants human smut these days. And don't even get me started on that {CENSORED} issue that claimed that "people say that I keep nudes of the bloody Emperor of {CENSORED} Maxtopia! I can't tell you HOW many times we've been at war with them, save for dropping the NUKE on them. Sigh.. I need a drink.

And how do your soldiers play "Shoot the Villager"? We only have "Stab Facist with Bayonet" and "Shoot Traitor with Tank".

You invade other nations and find a village (can be your own village) and you shoot the people of the village, the soldier with the biggest amount of kills wins. Price is up to you of course.

The ascension of our Lord was a Beautiful scene.

He took the 3 disciples to the mountainside to pray.

His appearance was modified, his clothing was engulfed in flame.

Then two men appeared, Moses and Elijah, they were by his side.

As Peter spoke, a cloud appeared, the face of God was covered in a cloud.

I shudder to repeat God's words, he said, "This is my son the beloved one. Listen to him."

I recommend that the people here take the Electoral System Test. Just remember that you will have to load "unsafe" scripts for the test to work. I got Parallel Voting as the best electoral system for me.

https://www.idea.int/data-tools/tools/best-election-system-test

In Wyoming we have elections every 5 years for all possible positions of government.

January 2nd is election day and all positions are limited to 2 terms.

So you will vote for president, sheriff, senators, dog catchers, everything all at the same time.

And whatever the choices, you deal with them for 5-10 and then everyone changes.

How does voting process process work? What does the ballot paper look like? How is the winner determined?

Your counterinsurgency has been killing rebels on sight - along with their family, friends, and local postmen.

Genocide intensifies*

There isnt anything better then publicly executing civilians and blaming insurgents! (and thats what we did in this issue)

“We should probably round up a whole boatload of our own citizens and ship them over to settle the place,” your Minister for Labour Manuel Longfellow says eagerly. “I suggest the unemployed. We could send them over, have them occupy the territory for us, and then lay the groundwork for a new, more stable nation. And if individual Brasilistani disagree? Well we’ll give our settlers some weapons and let them sort out disagreements.”

Colonialism intensifies*

“Aha! Ha-ha-ha,” your Chief Science Officer Professor Maxx von Strangehate cackles. “Occupy! What a silly goat you are! No, leader, what we should do is use Brasilistan as a nuclear testing site. Think of it! We’d get rid of all our problems in one easy go, and prove to the world at large how powerful we are! It’s not as expensive as occupation and there’ll be no gas bill at the end of it either. We already have the weapons, all we need is your say-so!”

Nuclear genocide intensifies*

“Teach them what? That we care about abstract concepts like ‘diplomacy’ and ‘dialogue’?” rebukes Kanya Schmidt, a hawkish Air Force Commander, pounding her fist into her open hand for emphasis. “It’s clear that they won’t fold easily when there’s so much profit at stake, but if we bomb the government, whoever is still left will accede to any of our demands.”

Are we really going to bomb into hell another nation just because they burned down forest and the smoke came to our land? yes we will. did they forget that we are insane!?

Napalm is the tool of choice for disabling eco-unfriendly forestry operations. Not ironic at all.....

First, while repairs on Henry will still take a couple more weeks, he's feeling well. Or, at least well enough to argue with Gordon, who has dropped by the Steamworks a few of times to visit Henry. Here's one exchange they had a couple days ago.

Gordon: So Henry, I guess this serves you right for mocking and embarrassing me by bringing up the Killdane incident.

Henry: Mocking? Embarrassing? I did no such thing! I was merely trying to show that your statement was inaccurate.

Gordon: That may have been the end result, but your intent was clearly to make me look bad!

Henry: Intent? You have some nerve throwing around allegations like that, you galloping sausage!

Gordon: Galloping sausage? Why you big green whale! I oughta...

Victor: Calm down, my friends! Gordon, shouldn't you be pulling the Expr --

Suffice to say Victor wasn't able to pry Gordon away from his argument with Henry in time, so Bear took the express instead. Gordon was not happy about that, let me tell you.

And I'm glad to hear about the pirates! I was getting worried about that, but I'm glad to hear you have it all under control. Let us know if you need anything!

Fascism drives economic growth through the elimination of the weak. In practice this means awarding "strong" companies with lucrative contracts and eliminating "weak" companies through punitive license requirements and regulation.

This leaves an economic vacuum which larger companies fill, hence driving growth...

Now follow this to it's natural conclusion and ask yourself how sustainable it is...

Spanelsko wrote:“Whatever happened to the sanctity of marriage?” asks Venus Beachcroft while wearing a T-shirt bearing the slogan ‘Marriage is for life, not just for anniversaries’. “Whatever happened to lifelong companionship? Whatever happened to simple faithfulness because of love?! Adultery seems to be more of a hobby than anything these days! The government must impose the utmost punishments on those who commit this sin. A good old-fashioned stoning should sort it!”

Well of course from now on we stone people for this reason!

The Talking Point

Adultery has been made a capital offence.

Yup, no USA; Germany was a colonial power; USSR was the USCS; and South America gets Ædenism instead of Socialism

I can understand that but at the same time it would probably be cheaper and better to RP development of a NEW MBT rather than trying to reserected that old Soviet tank.

Or, conversely, just buy a bunch of them from any communist nation, old Soviet block countries have these things laying around like Chevy pickups in Alabama.

Just an opinion.

Or you could just "buy" a MBT from one of the hundreds of NS storefronts, most of those guys do a great job of RPing realistic designs

´´Hated by the entire world for war crimes, slavery, genocide, mass murdering based on race, supporting terrorism, bombing own civilians for fun, cannibalism etc.´´ yeah, right we could buy tanks from others surely........

Also even communists hate us since you know we are actually fascists.....

The black arms trade doesn't care, lol, for Christ's sake, IRL someone once thought it was a good idea to sell Soviet era MBTs to Idi Amin and the US sold chemical weapons to Sadam Hussein, lol.

I know that black market doesnt care..... since we also are their close friends since we do sell them a lot of our guns for low prices...

BUT do you know how much money it would cost just to transport it here?! not to mention the cost of the tanks them self.

Then again i could sell few people as slaves to my friends. (around 30.000-60.000 people could be good)

You can literally buy a used Soviet T72, today for $50k US, they cost over $1M to produce new.

Upgradable T54s are like $10k, you couldn't buy the steel or ship it by scrap weight for that, lol

Just saying, there are some realistic budget options out there that would make more sense than tooling up a whole industry to build outdated MBTs

Is it only me that finds it ironic that nation that has freedom as its motto is trying to get me to buy tanks from black market? While we defend the right to be slave of our empire........
