Region: The Confederacy of Free Nations
Hello, everyone! I've heard good things about this region. My name is Percy.
Jaslandia, Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica, New Oelesa, Confederacy Of Free Nations
Who would've known? /s
In seriousness, my name is Baxten. I'm the local cartographer and resident pug (you'll learn about that another day). When you become a citizen, send me your map claim and I'll do my best to get it on ASAP. With it, we'll do all kinds of RPs and fun. We're kinda starting to structure our region, but in time we'll do the fun stuff.
Jaslandia, Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica, Percyton
Welcome, Percy! The Confederacy is a lot different from the Island of Sodor, but I think you'll like it here.
Penguania And Antarctica, Percyton
Thank you! I'm still new at this NationStates thing, but I've heard the people here are very friendly.
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica
You came to the wrong neighbourhood, motherfvcker....
Seriously though, welcome, welcome, have some tea.
Penguania And Antarctica, Percyton
Oh! You had me worried for a moment. I can't have tea, but I would like some water.
Jaslandia, Killdash, Penguania And Antarctica
Of course! *hands a glass of water to Percy*
Penguania And Antarctica, Percyton
Thanks, Jaslandia! But one glass won't make much of a difference; it takes a lot of water to fill an engine. *driver pours water into Percy's tank*
Penguania And Antarctica
A few hundred more moves should do it.

What the heck? I'm gone for a couple of days and the whole MSRM falls apart.

Greetings everyone, I am [nation=short]Latrovia[/nation] the ex- Premier of the Eurasian Socialist Union. Sadly our region was betrayed by our Founder and the WA Delegate.
These things made me understand that it was time to leave the ESU. I was going to join Montaris until I saw what happened there, and I need you to know that I agree with your decision to leave.
Hopefully I can help you as well to set up this new region and manage it.
I hope I am welcome to your family.
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica, Senatus Popolusque Mercunovus, Confederacy Of Free Nations, Synargle
You are most welcome here, I am quite sure. :D
Latrovia, Penguania And Antarctica
I feel horrible that the ESU ended up like that without any prior notification. I also feel so bad that after all that amount of work in the ESU I am required to leave. I understand that you guys are a family here, and I am just the new guy. So please bear with me in my attempts to fit in your community.
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica, Senatus Popolusque Mercunovus, Confederacy Of Free Nations, Synargle
Welcome to my life from NGA-CFN-NGA-MSRM.
Penguania And Antarctica
No worries man. I'm sure you'll fit in perfectly.
Latrovia, Penguania And Antarctica, Senatus Popolusque Mercunovus
It's a pleasure meeting you as well. :) [nation=short]Killdash[/nation]
Killdash, Penguania And Antarctica
Did, I just double tagged you? Oh yes I did. xD
Penguania And Antarctica
No probably. The more tags the merrier.
Latrovia, Penguania And Antarctica
*sigh* I mean problem, as you may have guessed.
Latrovia, Penguania And Antarctica
I know, no worries. Feel free to contact me for anything :)
Penguania And Antarctica, Synargle
Whoah, nice pick up man. Smooth as a aluminum surface.
Latrovia, Penguania And Antarctica
You guys should write a history of your region in the style that the ancient romans and Greeks did, slightly biased and exaggerated but still be true.
Jaslandia, Killdash, Republic Of Libertara, Penguania And Antarctica
Mate, you have no idea how mad I was when it fell to crap
I know how you feel, my similar flagged friend.
Hey Lat, sorry that sh!t sucked, I'm sure you'll be happy here!
Jaslandia, Latrovia, Penguania And Antarctica
Thank you Kalaron, I hope I can be of good help around here. :)

Iron man quote. I got cha.
Penguania And Antarctica
Thanks man, whats it mean out of interest.
Penguania And Antarctica
I think it's because Thor wears a cape.
Penguania And Antarctica
Oh right, i thought it had something to do with the post he quoted, maybe it does, im slow sometimes haha.
Killdash, Penguania And Antarctica
I hope you don't mind if I start working in a few regional projects such:
- Global Citizen
- INSTO
- Small/Large Business
- Roleplay
- Government
Penguania And Antarctica, Senatus Popolusque Mercunovus
The NGA/CFN/Montaris has also had problems with its Founders in the past, so we can sympathize with you. We gladly welcome you and anyone else from ESU who wishes to come here!

Ah, the Royal Proclamation of 1763. How you were quickly disregarded and never in the slightest truly honoured.
Also, rest is peace Matt Shepard.
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica, New Oelesa, Senatus Popolusque Mercunovus, Confederacy Of Free Nations
Does any of you rp here?
Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica, Senatus Popolusque Mercunovus
Yeah, I'd say we have a decent number of RPers here.
Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica, New Oelesa, Senatus Popolusque Mercunovus
Hi
Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica, Senatus Popolusque Mercunovus
Hallo you F*cksticks
Latrovia, Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica, Senatus Popolusque Mercunovus
I'd like to but i havent before.
Jaslandia, Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica, Senatus Popolusque Mercunovus
Same.
Jaslandia, Latrovia, Lavan Tiri, Zistrana, Senatus Popolusque Mercunovus
Well, there's a first time for everything.
Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica, Senatus Popolusque Mercunovus
Nah, but I [B]was[/B] developing a plane for the Montaris Air-Force...
Damn Ruclax...
Jaslandia, Latrovia, Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica, Senatus Popolusque Mercunovus, Synargle
Sooo manyyyy quoootes! Ha :P
Well we can surely start some RP's and perhaps have a map maker. But I encourage the government to have our forums up and designed fully.
Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica, New Oelesa, Senatus Popolusque Mercunovus, Synargle
Based on past experience, I wouldn't trust this region's government as far as I could throw them.
Penguania And Antarctica, New Oelesa, Senatus Popolusque Mercunovus
Fury what happened to your eye?!
Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica, New Oelesa, Senatus Popolusque Mercunovus

Hello [nation=short]Lavan Tiri[/nation] and welcome (again!)

Communist revolution is next comrade
Jaslandia, Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica
Why? I think you should be more trusting.

If we do this one more time I'm moving to a P2TM RP region. Hello, Merc.
UNF! MI AMIGO!
Penguania And Antarctica, Senatus Popolusque Mercunovus
I'll try not to piss off another monarch, then.
That's hard tho :P
Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica
3 regions in less than a year says otherwise.
Latrovia, Penguania And Antarctica, Senatus Popolusque Mercunovus
Long time no see, Lavan. How's it going?
Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica, Senatus Popolusque Mercunovus
I mean, founders can be real P.O.S.
That said, Good on you for smacking Ru in the MSRM RMB, Lavan.
Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica, Senatus Popolusque Mercunovus, Synargle
TBH, I missed you. You're like a cactus in a desert: prickly and liable to harm someone with your sharp, chlorophyll-filled limbs, but you belong there. Here. Wherever.
Things are great. I'm the bad guy in our fall play, and my grades are good. Still single tho.
Y tu?
Continental Commonwealths, Penguania And Antarctica, Senatus Popolusque Mercunovus
I live to serve, and by serve I mean tear tyrants new assholes.
Y'all should read what I said. I'm particularly proud of that one.
Latrovia, Penguania And Antarctica, Senatus Popolusque Mercunovus
Can anyone suggest me some good music?
Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica, Synargle
You should convince more ESU members here. Power in numbers, my friend
Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica
They haven't learned their lesson yet. The only way to stop this from happening again is by creating a region with a founder without executive power.
Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica
what kind you into?
Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica, Senatus Popolusque Mercunovus
You really dont want more ESU members here xD

Welcome to the Confederacy, Lavan!
Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica, Senatus Popolusque Mercunovus
If you can help me plan the next RP, that would be great. I'll let you be a Co-Op for sure. I have some ideas, but they're very general
Also if you want a map spot, TG me.
Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica
Heyo, Jazzy.
So. Constitution???
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica
If they're not like our last trouble citizen (He Who Shall Not Be Named), then they'll be fine.
Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica
Yes please put me on the map. Also send me a TG with your RP ideas, I am interested to see whats on your mind :)
Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica
I'm literally right here, Bax. You can say my name.
Continental Commonwealths, Penguania And Antarctica
P.O.S.? *driver whispers what P.O.S. means* Oh my! That's quite rude!
Jaslandia, Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica
Thank you man! I like the list :D
Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica
Not you, the other one
By the way, I'm guessing you want the Iberian Peninsula?
Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica
where is the map?
Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica
You know me so well.
Penguania And Antarctica, Senatus Popolusque Mercunovus
Anytime, mi compadre.
Bax, it's rude to talk about Vista like that.
Latrovia, Penguania And Antarctica, Senatus Popolusque Mercunovus, Percyton
Guys I am really looking joining the first Planning meeting in the Discord Channel. Gonna be there! xoxo
Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica, Senatus Popolusque Mercunovus
This just makes me wonder if you want to know what P.O.S. is?
Lavan Tiri, Senatus Popolusque Mercunovus, Percyton

My driver just told me what P.O.S. means, but now I kinda wish he didn't tell me.
Lavan Tiri, Varrick The Rich Guy, Penguania And Antarctica, Senatus Popolusque Mercunovus
Just about a half-hour until today's planning meeting. Those who don't have the agenda can find it in the WFE :)
Latrovia, Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica
Why do I even try. Aet isn't here yet, so I'll say it: His name was Valturus. I'm not really up to tell the story (dealing with, I dunno, map things), so Merc, Kal, and Sul can tell you. Really anyone in the region could, but you know.
Lavan Tiri, Senatus Popolusque Mercunovus
Cool, thanks, can i have a spot or is there some citizenship thing or am i already a citizen with this region being just founded?
Lavan Tiri
Ah, Discord. My old enemy.
Penguania And Antarctica, Senatus Popolusque Mercunovus
Since Citizenship processes are in the works, I'll just let anyone on it per entry. Unless your filling our Oceania (which is all filled out), it's not very hard to put on and take off.
Lavan Tiri
Aren't you a train or something? I could use someone like you for a new railroad I'm investing in. So, kid, how would you like to pull some freight between Republic City and Omashu?
Jaslandia, Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica, Percyton
It's a hard life being a creepy cactus, but so far the [insert this week's regional abbreviation here] are the only ones who'll have me.
I think you'd suit being a villain, you have the evil vibe.
I'm pretty good, but also still single.
Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica, Senatus Popolusque Mercunovus
I don't know where either of those places are, but I like pulling trains. My name is Percy, by the way.
Jaslandia, Lavan Tiri, Varrick The Rich Guy, Penguania And Antarctica
Well in that case, can i have Romania and Moldova please?
Lavan Tiri
That should be fine.
Lavan Tiri
Nice to meet you, Percy! My name Iknik Blackstone Varrick, CEO and Chairman of Varrick Global Industries; however, you may call me Varrick. I would shake your hand at this point, but I don't know how I would do that seeing as you don't have any hands.
Jaslandia, Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica, Percyton
It's nice to meet you, Varrick. I hope I can be really useful on your railway.
Jaslandia, Lavan Tiri, Varrick The Rich Guy, Penguania And Antarctica
Meeting is happening right now! :)
Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica, Senatus Popolusque Mercunovus
Why do all the meetings have to start when I can never make it. Damn you limited cellular data! DAMN YOU!
Latrovia, Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica
Oh, I think you'll be really useful indeed, Percy!
Jaslandia, Lavan Tiri, Penguania And Antarctica, Percyton
Well, here we go again! New region, fresh start, new beginnings!
Lets make this one last, shall we? ;)
Vista Major, Penguania And Antarctica, Senatus Popolusque Mercunovus
It won't last until it is impossible for one person to have unlimited power. Even with a shared founder account, one person can lock out the other two and take control. You need to start a region with a founder without executive authority. It will have a much greater risk of being raided, but it is the only way of defeating a power hungry founder without starting over again and again.
