[nation=short]Kalaron[/nation], you'll be happy to know that I just checked with my Finance Ministry and my Defense Ministry, and they've officially confirmed our deal. We'll be expecting your uranium and weapons at Brendam Docks. From there, the uranium will be taken by train to Misty Island via an underwater tunnel, while the weapons will be taken by train to Percyton's de facto military centre at Peel Godred. I've also called in an expert from the Mainland to give the engines a crash course on handling radioactive material like uranium.

Got another one of your issues [nation=short]Nuremgard[/nation], this one about VAT! I went with the option of reducing VAT on necessities while increasing it on luxuries.

Oh would you look at that, a group of furries raped a 13 year-old kid dressed as Tony Tiger, and then had sex with a pair of Rottweilers.
What a bunch of degenerates.

With liberal I meant that you're not going to ban people because of their ideas. Anyway, you give a valid point, that's why I will add an exception for Embassy Collectors and for regions that have tha tags to show that they welcome everybody. A purely Fascist Region would have only Fascist tags , while a region for all would also have Socialist, Communist, Conservative etc,etc.
where the hell did this come from?

Two new bills have been introduced, be sure to read and vote. Voting goes on for seven days if you forgot.
Cesorion removed his bill from voting as a clause in the bill mentioned a failed bill.
That said, do not refer to bills that have not passed inside your own piece of legislation.

Man, with friends like these, who needs insurgents?
Note to self, if I ask you to help me move a couch, you might just shoot the house instead :P
No but really, making people in country hate your faction just incentives the other side so I'm still confused as to how this helps the NST or counts as supporting them, really.
Hehe, hey, Kalaron likes to help make clean energy and we love to make creative weapons. Better than wikipedia.

So I'm thinking of starting to RP again, but I realize a lot has changed. Can someone catch me up?
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica
OK, so...
PLR is off having American Style Adventures in PK. Kalaron has supplied the Free State with plenty of armaments as they're joining CONCORD which should turn the battle into their hands. Also PLR is bombing the NST's allies because IDK it doesn't really make sense to me because now the NST is hated in the villages he's bombed when they were liked before.
CROSS has reformed with four or five members or something including PLR, TCADs, Ces and Handland and probably also Fried too. And I think Kum but Kum doesn't RP.
CONCORD is holding steady and I'm supplying them with Tse.
Fried's sequestration of Vista is continuing or something, really Vista is just kinda going along with it but he's changing his nation for economic reasons.
Mag is having a civil war between """"communists"""" and his normal government with some people supporting the Communists
That should be it, though we also have a soft economic system that Kalaron is rich inside of.
Jaslandia
Ah yes, "sequestration". I've seen you use that a lot lately. In reality, we likely didn't have any assets over there to begin with (changing now, I might add), and all I was doing was applying political pressure on the new government to repeal its controversial new law.
You also forgot my totally legal and ethical support of PLR in Somalia through the IWA proxy that I'm going to abuse the fûck out of for a very very long time.
And no, I'm no member of CROSS, though I'm sure you would love it if I were.
Jaslandia, Yukona
Well it is a good time for me to start in the RP.
1) Just checked, was actually the wrong word I used. I meant Alienation.
2) Eh, considering the tie between you and PLR's nation I really wouldn't be that surprised if you joined CROSS in the event of a war or if tensions raised, tbh. I don't really care about what you do, don't know why you'd think I preferred it if you were.
Jaslandia
How does one go about joining this economic thing? And how does it really work?
Ask Hyder.
South Hyder
1) Not even really alienation, for I would have given up on Vista's government and tried to replace it if I wanted to alienate them.
2) Ties that are not public, because everything is done through the IWA. . And it would make zero sense for me to join an anti-leftist right wing group when I'm literally making it my leader's highest priority to unite the left wing against the right. It's like me siding with BRICS in a war when I'm part of NATO. Just doesn't make sense at all.
Peoples Liberation Republic
What
"the state or experience of being isolated from a group or an activity to which one should belong or in which one should be involved."
Are you legitimately going to say that attempting to convince the international community not to associate with Vista isn't a case of alienation? What about Andy's people or attempting to get Axeldonia to not support Vista?
Maybe the scene is different now since I haven't really checked all that much tbh, but yeah that was using alienation of Vista's country to discourage them from the law they passed, man.
I'll admit to it not making sense, maybe, but then we've had similar cases before and I would argue that whether you officially support them or not is semantics.
If in a war you throw your support behind PLR -and thus support CROSS- through the IWA then I would argue that you're still technically a part of it on their side. However, I realize I maybe didn't make myself very clear with my first statement and that my second confused things even more.
Supporting me does not mean Fried supports CROSS
Supporting you in a war means that he is indirectly supporting CROSS, which I've already said and should quite frankly be common sense. It doesn't mean that he necessarily agrees with the rest of CROSS, but it most certainly is an indirect way of supporting them were war to occur.
Æ might honestly just be a placeholder.
I will support these statements because, well, they're basic logic and common sense on how money and support works. However I will point out that should a conflict come were CROSS begins to bully Phoenix Concord or some leftist nation I doubt Fried would continue to "indirectly support" his efforts not least because the alliance includes a Theocrat and a Hyper-anticommunist nation that still calls itself "Empire" in 2018.
*Lips tremble*
It's just that it always looks kinda odd to me.
Thats letterist; And I'm funding Ædenist rebels in your more oppressive provinces :P
Yukona
That would be considered foreign interference, which would legally allow direct Federation action, and a swift end to the fighting.
I am an Ædenist Rebellion in the Federation
And where do you operate? If you're trying to avoid Federation action, then you need to be registered.
No. It does not because this is not a CROSS sanctioned action.
With what I know, I'd say Xiinjok, Ryskikk, Qinjan, Zeptov, Pyrth and or anywhere the Kaltkyn Party operates.
Oh I see, you picked based on GDP, and not necessarily where they lie Right to Left.
That has literally zero relevance to whether it indirectly supports them or not. That's like saying that the US doesn't benefit from SAD missions because it doesn't officially sanction them or acknowledged they exist, but it's worse because in this case sanctioning it means even less because they have [B]zero[/B] direct influence on what Fried does with you.
If in WW2 the US couldn't bring themselves to help the Russians but provided materials to Britain, then they have supported the Allies regardless and that's discounting if Britain used said supplies to strengthen the Russians. Every iota of support you receive in a war from a supporting country frees up a comparative iota of internal effort you can divert to the war effort and thus strengthen your front in said war.
Exactly like Andy said:
I had limited time I didn't know you had an ideological spectrum already in place, if I had known that I would've used it lol; Lemme pick again XD
lol
Or did you mean that geographically? Because I'm trying to find Ideological markers and am having trouble :3

Actually it does makes sense. Unlike other organizations, CROSS cherishes national sovereignty and choice. Supporting one of us does not mean you support the entirety of the organization just as how members of CROSS as a whole does not need to engage into a conflict unless one of us is attacked or it is unanimously voted. So it makes sense. Your assumptions are wrong so stop. It is in our charter. Supporting me does not support CROSS. End of story.
Honestly that sounds exactly like Concord in every way. Just an observation.
Like that time when you all unanimously invaded me to take my Canal for your own!
I believe he means for member nations. You weren't one, so we didn't care.
Well I didn't vote on it and I had no interest in invading you. I wasn't active as much
Cool story
Saying something, unsurprisingly, doesn't make it true whatsoever and neither does saying "End of story" actually end the debate.
Let me rephrase it what I was saying:
In a war, by supporting you, Fried is allowing for you to have a stronger presence on a battlefield and furthermore allowing for you to draw down more of the enemies resources.
This^ by virtue of freeing up your industrial/economic/logistical strength, is an indirect act of supporting CROSS in a war.
If I have fifty muffins and CROSS's goal is to take said muffins and you can normally carry six muffins but Fried hates your friends but gives you a wheel barrow so you can instead take forty while they try to take six, he has supported CROSS's goal. This is literally the simplest situation I can break it down into.
What kind of muffins?
Top Kek. Did you know floop florp?
^That is the right question. Muffins are boss.

#HanderrHypocrisy
...fine...but I am not gonna be happy about it. :P
Meant to do both but I'm doing some other stuff right now. #calmdownkiddo Here's your explanation for both:
1. We believe in sovereignty and will protect that if you're in the organization. You weren't, thusly, no f*cks were ever given about your sovereignty or canal. Also, you must have forgot a lot about this war. Mar wanted your canal. I wanted to burn you nation to the ground and salt the earth behind me.
2. Or we barred you because you're Andy.

Which one of you fellas own Perim Island?
http://i.imgur.com/bau03Rx.png
I would kinda like to make use of it. Lease it perhaps.
Jaslandia
I assume I would own it, since it was historically last occupied by South Yemen (which would be within my territory), but we've never formally established who owns it in this region, and the island isn't on the map.
See I am wanting to turn the island into a fortress to protect the southern most portion of the Red Sea. Its honestly perfectly placed for such a task. Regardless, of my intentions for it, I would advise you do just that to the island. Its rare I see a place on a map and go, "D*mn, that is a prime peace of real estate.".
Jaslandia, United Continental States
I see. If it turns out I do own it, I could lease it to you, but I'm not sure how much good it would be; according to Wikipedia, it's just a small volcanic island, and it looks like even the current Yemen government isn't bothering with it. However, if I do lease it to you, you must promise never to use Perim Island to block or cut off trade in the Red Sea.

I learned an interesting factoid yesterday. Britain and France almost merged together as one country in political union during WW2. It was rejected by the French Council of Ministers who thought it was a plot by the British to seize the French empire. The plans for union were drawn up out of desperation by France to fight off the Nazis.
One French minister said, "better to be a province of Nazi Germany."
Think of how differently history could have worked out.

Hey, so I don't want to seem rude, but I've noticed some people do stuff like this and I want to hopefully avoid it in the future.
Please don't claim every RL tank/plane/warship or the majority of any of them. It's fine enough to claim one (though anyone can say they made the tank too and thus go around you) but it's a tad bit rude to just claim every last one of them. :D
I have sent the claim to Baxten. Currently waiting reply.
I am going to make the PLRC the mixture of an Autocratic USA, Tzarist Russia, and DPRK of our RP world but mostly DPRK. Samsonian Republicanism is basically the ideology that will convert the PLRC to something similar to the DPRK, pertaining to their government and the heightened elevation and rather divinity nature of the President, militarized society, Stalinistic propaganda, etc.
