CONFUSUR Official Statement on the Events of 21 June 2022
21 June 2022
The violence today on and off the field of the match between Salisford and Andaluzia in San Romero is unacceptable and intolerable. Today's violence includes attempted pitch invasions, fighting in the stands, and throwing items onto the field by the spectators, and rough play and fighting on the field by players, coaches, and aides. These forms of violence are not welcome in the 2022 Copa Sur Centennial.
In response, CONFUSUR has decided to ban all spectators from the succeeding match between Andaluzia and Salisford on 30 June 2022. Additionally, the Salisford national football team will forfeit their winnings for this match (₡20 million) and pay a ₡5 million fine, and the Andaluzia national team will be fined the same amount (₡5 million). Additionally, any winnings from their next match will also be forfeited.

Hello!

....I expect I got some day,more time to talk,or even do a roleplay with you again....

Emperor Herunën Valathor
Following yesterdays remarks, I would like to begin by modifying one of my nations previous proposals. Yesterday we proposed the creation of a single agency to provide all our citizens with a unified drivers and boating license. We have decided, in part due to remarks made by the Paleocacher government, to instead propose a unified license and passport standard. This standard would serve the affirmation purpose of reducing fraud while not requiring a complete restructuring of our nations registration and licensing systems. Each license and passport will contain national identifiers in specified locations so that the national identity may be easily identified. I still maintain it is crucial that we must recognize the licenses and passports of our fellow union members.
Now I would like to discuss why it is I proposed these changes. To echo President Fulkerson: how much power will our nations be signing over to this organization? We must always remember this union has been created to serve our nations, to serve our people. Not the other way around. President Morriss proposal yesterday was splendid; however, we must now discuss the powers and limits of this union. Let us begin with the Council of Ostlandet. Their purpose should be limited to the management and running of the union and its defined branches. They should not be creating new branches nor passing laws over our sovereignty. They should instead be voting on issues such as funding, the hiring of senior branch member, and branch policy. These policy votes may not however be placed above our sovereignty. For example, they may vote to require the Ostlandet Grant Organization to place priority on funding cloning research but if one of our nations do not allow cloning then this order will be ignored within the specified nation. I also propose the Council may be authorized, with 14-member vote, to call an emergency summit that will take place along with the annual summit. I do not believe I need to explain the reasoning for emergency summits.
Lets next discuss the order of the position of President of the Union. I believe we all can agree the honors should be first given to our host, Gjorka. After this I propose either a clockwise or counterclockwise order. As either choice would see Ajakanistan or Zloveshchiy holding this position last, I believe they should decide which order is chosen.
Lastly some of the nations here have proposed specific plans for events or locations within their nation. I believe all these proposals will serve to bring our continent together. It is also a fact these proposals will directly benefit the local economy of the host nations. I believe the host nation should be responsible for the funding to the initial facilities. Maintaining and running these events or locations will be paid for using Union funding. Just the initial construction should have to be covered.

Never say your "midevil wepon" wielders can defeat modern soldiers any day of the week. Alongside naming Helicarriers Avenger-class, it looks very uninaginative.
Warriors make poor defenders - especially when defending a foreign nation for nothing but their leader's whim. You could say "Despite the lack of conventional tactics, DragonBorn retaliation is swift and savage - usually enough to deter those who might attack their allies." That way, Intichayes' citizen don't have anything looming over them and DragonBorn resources aren't wasted on deployments.

Today we have some worrying news, we have information that at 21:06PM, Terrorists and miners were sighted in an area of closed forest in the north of the country. The 16th Infantry Battalion specializing in jungle combat, the 8th Air Force Rapid Response Operations Battalion, and the Air Force's 3rd Parachute Operations Battalion were deployed for combat.
People say that the terrorists are heavily armed and have already killed at least 3 civilians, Air force helicopters are flying over the area. Our team at the "Caxias 8" Air Base They said they saw 12 paratroop transport planes taking off. The Navy sent a statement to channel 13 saying that soldiers from the Pantanal command are in the rivers of the region.
At any moment we will return with the latest news of this gigantic operation of the armed forces for the protection of our country's sovereignty and for the protection of our wealth.

Are you a child (don't answer)? Because only a child would have such a insistent* need to 1) dominate poorly written roleplay and 2) watch heroes tempered in the fiery crucible of battle, the true redeemer.
War isn't glorious. I'm not suggesting a super gritty, edgy story of death and destruction, but when you put "Minecraft" in the same post as "a large fleet of helicarriers" at least one alarm bell should go off in your head.
Sure, we can rumble. But I don't want to hear about a psychic counterintelligence agency defending the Death Star IV alright?

How should I respond to this an... One sec got to take this call... Hello, o, yes yes I understand, you've got to be kidding me, this is the third time this week, yes I know that, I'm on my way, ok where was I ah yes, I'll work on my role play skills, but right now I have just received reports of a few pillager patrols near a few of the border villages and I have to go and protect my people and try to smooth things out before a battle breaks out. "Man the pillagers have really gotten pathetic during their raids, the only major harm they've been able to cause is a broken arm, and that was just pushing someone of roof." Whistle's "Flame, we have pillagers to stop...again." As a red tier 4 fire dragon comes swooping down from the sky and landing next to the chief. (How's that. Any improvements.)

NEWS
We have information that 8 terrorists and 12 miners were killed by the infantry of the air force, the army and the Navy's Pantanal Command.
This operation was called "Operation Gigached".
The government stated that the actions of gold miners and terrorists in one of the largest environmental areas of Super Top was a matter of national sovereignty and that these people will deserve death.
The army commander said that it is satisfying to see images of dead people... Even more satisfying when it comes to terrorists. The national census states that the majority of the population agree with the commander.
Tomorrow, the president will be present in an exclusive interview on Channel 13.
Have a good night.

Channel 13 of Super Top | Exclusive interview with the President of the Republic.
Presenter: Hello and good afternoon to all Channel 13 viewers, Today we will have an exclusive interview with the greatest authority in this country, The President of the Republic, Ednaldo Pereira.
Presenter: President it is an honor to have you here in our interview and thank you for accepting, May the Lord continue to carry out his work and may God give him wisdom and health to continue on his path.
President: First of all, good afternoon and thank you very much for the reception here on Canal 13. It is also an honor to be here live for the entire national territory and abroad. I want to thank everyone who made this broadcast possible and to continue carrying out this fundamental work that the press has to inform the population of Super Top.
Presenter: President, Before you got the job, The country was in a huge economic crisis and that simply some sectors of the country ran out of money and some institutions even declared bankruptcy. After you received the position you managed to significantly increase the Super Top economy. Could you describe a little bit how the economy was and how is your government now?
President: Of course! Before I was elected President, the country was ruined, with no money for anything, and that was a consequence of the mismanagement of the past government and the socialist system and especially the socialist system that took our country to the hole. In a report that I read about how the situation is, the past government came to have the economy on chart 58, On trend. When I came in as President I replaced all the ministers and I just ended up with this garbage called Socialism. This ended our country, several institutions went bankrupt, as you said and some ministries were out of money, such as the Ministry of the Environment. I remember that there was no park and there was no environmental protection law. In my administration, the economy grew rapidly and continues to grow, the latest report says the economy trend is at 96 out of 100. This for us is a huge achievement, given how much destruction the past government has left.
Presenter: Very good indeed, the current situation of our country's economy... Now I'm going to ask a little about the country's education, which simply gave a BOOM of quality in its government. Channel 13 did a recent study on the percentage of student satisfaction in the education network and we found that 91% of students are satisfied with the quality and development of education in general. From your point of view, how is the level of education in our country and what are your plans to improve it?
President: Well, the level of education in the country is only like this thanks to the government and the Minister of Education, Gabriella Montez.
I didn't know about this level of satisfaction until now and it left me quite impressed... It's great to know that students are satisfied with the quality and development of education, Also, We do this for them... they are the future of our country and a good education is fundamental for the general development of the country. The other day I saw an interview on another television channel that had a person whose objective was to be an Air Force Pilot, there was a short summary of this citizen's life and he said that since he was 9 years old, his objective was to be Pilot. Now he's an adult and he's a Major in the Air Force. So, Every child is capable of achieving their goals... it just depends on their willpower and their dedication to their goal. For example, I, I also wanted to become an Air Force Pilot and I did. I became Air Brigadier and Air Force commander, then I ran for President of the Republic. Now, my plans to improve the country's education: Training and valuing teachers, Adoption of a teaching platform, Stimulating student leadership, Development of student's socio-emotional skills, Inserting technology in the classroom, Use of teaching materials contextualized and an improvement of the educational environment.
Presenter: President, I would like to warn you that our interview will be divided into three parts and that we have now closed the first part of our interview. Viewers, Tomorrow will be part 2 of the exclusive interview with the President of the Republic, Ednaldo Pereira. Good afternoon everyone!
President: Good afternoon!

The Industrial Revolution and Its Consequences
In which Spode asks and then tries to answer three different questions, to varying levels of success.
[spoiler=Q: How did Creeperopolis wind up having like all the problems of being colonized while also operating a colonial empire spanning three continents?]
A: OOC, I clearly know the answer here (or least think I do)- The Creeperian empire is more based on Spanish colonialism, where most else of Creeperian history is based on real life areas/places/nations that got positively dunked on by successive imperial domination by the Spaniards followed by the United States. But thats a really unsatisfactory answer from an IC perspective because its not an IC answer.
But what could cause that, IC? Well, I saw a YouTube video which piqued my interest in the concept of the imperial boomerang- the idea that methods and justifications of imperialism practiced in a countrys colonies will begin to bleed back into the domestic politics of the imperial power. Im not entirely sure if this would work for explaining Creeperopoliss economy- Theres certainly arguments to be made for the economy struggling from the resource curse, or from unequal exchange with other imperial nations in the world.
[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Q: What nations in Terraconserva form the imperial core, and which nations form the imperial periphery?]
A: The obvious answer for me is that the imperial core is composed of Paleocacher, Groffenord, Quebecshire, Reia*, and Creeperopolis- All developed economies, and in at least two cases, former colonialist world powers.
Rakeo is in the imperial periphery because of its entanglement with Creeperian energy production. Lyoa is too- Without Creeperian economic/military support, the government would likely fall against Terranihilian-backed rebels. Sequoyah is literally under Creeperian boots (as is SCI).
Karimun is a different story- Theres no active military invasion of it, and no clear dependency on a foreign power. But the country isnt really exerting force onto its neighbors, beyond keeping Lyoan groups north of its borders.
Then theres a bunch of countries that I unfortunately dont really enough about to classify. Countries like Salisford, Andaluzia, Yourtanad, and Reykanes.
(And then theres the communist/psuedo-communist countries which are an entire different can of worms that I need to read more wiki on I might write more on them later here)
*Should Protocol Rendezvous return
[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Q: Why would a country like Sequoyah so completely fail to industrialize?]
A: I thought that finding a real life analogue would help- And if youre looking for thinkpieces on why a place hasnt industrialized, Africa is your best bet. Once I managed to scroll past PragerU tier takes that are basically racist screeds about how its because brown people no smart, I found three arguments.
- Geological determinism
If the resources werent available, the place didnt industrialize. This is a pretty contentious, to the point where one of the people most famous for promoting it has to have a section on his website coping about receiving criticism from other historians
- Poor governance
If the governments of places couldnt/wouldnt protect nascent industries from well developed external industry, those internal industries died
- Unequal exchange
That because of the power of other countries, their exports would be undervalued and thus not build the same amount of capital as the same commodities would in a rich nation. If America suddenly found a natural resource somewhere in its borders, it would be able to mobilize the capital domestically to extract it, and probably already has the factors of production to convert it in a good worth a large amount- Compare that to a country in the global south, where the natural resources are mostly extracted through the deployment of foreign capital, the nation (and its workers) is nickeled and dimed for every step of the process.
We can actually see the process in action in Sequoyah- Because it lacked capital, it was forced to rely on other nations to extract its petrol. The Malgan Petroleum corporation (before it was struck from the canon) was going to be the owner of the factors of production, from the pumpjacks to the transportation, Sequoyahs oil fields were to be Malgan in all but name.

Olino, Rakeo, September 20th of 2021
The compound in Olino used for foreign guests was originally a car garage for some sort of planned commercial center. The new government had seen it for something else- A building resistant to small arms fire, overlooking blocks of the city in which it had been built. To the new regime, it was a castle. Well, also a dungeon. The main difference between whether a political prisoner or a valued foreign guest was present in one of the constructed rooms was the square footage, and if they were lucky, a dresser in addition to a bed.
The last guard on the night shift, looked into the distance while leaning on a column. Ten years of drinking and taken a lot out of his liver, and now something as small as the can of energy drink by his feet could put him into a stupor-like state. Not wanting to make a commotion while Apollo was presumably still sleeping, the day crew simply grabbed some leftover green tarp that had been used in the construction of the delegation's rooms and draped it loosely over their comrade.
Since it is still September 20th of 2021, and Rakeo had definitely not kidnapped the Karimunese VP, Mr. Apollo, for an entire year, this is all entirely normal.

End of the War in Cherzia
"Its early in the morning and Tozaningrad is completly surrounded , Most high ranking officials have left in exile to Reykanes , and left us to defend the crumples of the city. This is the day i will die i know it. If im going to die, i wont go without a fight" - quote from the journal of General Ivan Trkulja who not long after was killed in a drone strike.
Cherzia has been ordered to be under Military occupation to keep security in the region and to defeat the surviving rebels. There will also be a investigation of War crimes commited by the Rebel Regime.

hello everyone
Creeperopolis, Icaris, Quebecshire, Dragonborn Clan
Hello!
Creeperopolis, Dragonborn Clan
Dear [nation=long]Quebecshire[/nation],
It has come to my attention that you have voted "Grass? What's that?" on our region's most recent poll: "Is Touching Grass Overrated?" (link) as of 11:38:44 a.m. PDT (2 days 5 hours into the poll's 3 day period). That is great and all, as I myself have also voted for that same option, however, your choosing of the option presents itself some problems which I have come across.
You are quite notable on the regional Discord of telling others and even myself to "touch grass" on multiple occasions for things which we have said or done. Mr. Shire, how could you be telling us to touch grass, if even you yourself do not know what grass is? We may have conflicting understandings of the definition of "grass", or perhaps you are referring to a different "grass" entirely. As I search for "grass" on Wikipedia, the article for "Poaceae" is where the term grass redirects: "Poaceae (/poʊˈeɪsiaɪ/) or Gramineae (/ɡrəˈmɪniaɪ/) is a large and nearly ubiquitous family of monocotyledonous flowering plants commonly known as grasses. It includes the cereal grasses, bamboos and the grasses of natural grassland and species cultivated in lawns and pasture. The latter are commonly referred to collectively as grass."
You may, however, be referring to a different grass, either on Discord or here on NationStates. If you do not mind, would you please clarify what you are referring to when you say "grass". (The following are from the Wikipedia article "Grass (disambiguation)" which lists different things which are referred to as "grass"):
Poaceae (most commonly referred to as grass)
Other plants, unrelated to Poaceae, including: Blue-eyed grasses, China grass, Cotton grass, Deergrass (Rhexia spp.), Deergrass (Trichophorum spp.), Ditch grass, Eelgrass (Vallisneria), Eelgrass (Zostera), Golden-eye grass, Good Friday Grass, Goosegrass, Grass (cannabis), Grass of Parnassus, Knotgrass, Mondo grass, Nutgrass, Pepper grass, Sawgrass, Scurvy-grass, Scurvy-grass sorrel, Seagrasses, Sleeping grass, Whitlow grass, Xyridaceae

I can deduce that some of the above options you are likely not referring to on Discord, as some of the above options would either be illegal to touch or impossible to touch, such as people or programing languages. On NationStates, however, you may be referring to any of the above items which you have not heard of. You clearly must know at least one (1) interpretations of the word grass, and know that at least one (1) more exists for you to tell me to "touch grass" on Discord and say, essentially, "I do not know what grass is" on NationStates.
Or, perhaps, you are telling me and others to "touch grass" in bad faith, because you may not actually know what grass is if your statement on NationStates is the truth. You may be abusing your position of power as Consul of the Republic and server administrator to berate others on the server and make yourself seem to be on an ever higher position of authority than you already are (argumentum ab auctoritate).
Additionally, "touch grass" is commonly used as an insult on the internet. According to Urban Dictionary: "["Touch grass" is] used when someone is doing something weird, stupid, or pointless. It means they need to come back to reality, they need to get some fresh air and get back in touch with how the real world works." This can be interpreted as quite rude and offensive by some people, and its use should be avoided at all costs (ad hominem).
If this is the case, you may also be disappointed and/or dissatisfied with my habits, values, and way of life, and are telling me to "touch grass" in the hopes that I will all of a sudden adopt your own habits, values, and way of life, or how you see the correct way to life and things to think are. This is also deeply rude and disrespectful, as everyone has their own individual habits, values, and ways of life, and just because you do what you do, does not mean that your's are superior to mine or others (moralistic fallacy).
In conclusion, I believe that you may most probably be telling me to "touch grass" in bad faith, due to your position of power enabling yourself to do so, your usage of the phrase to criticize my character, and your belief that your interpretation of what one should believe and do in life are superior than to mine. I believe that you should seriously and deeply evaluate your usage of the phrase and reflect on how you can improve as a person on how to improve this situation in the future. I also request that you refrain from telling me and others to "touch grass" as it came come across as very rude, inconsiderate, and condescending.
Thank you Mr. Shire for reading my evaluation of your actions and I hope to see you improve in the future.

Creeperopolis, Dragonborn Clan
The Red Fleet isnt really a problem, but we are at war with The Black Hawks.
The New Fandom Republic, Creeperopolis, Dragonborn Clan
I was just using them as examples, there are lots that I dont like.
Creeperopolis, Dragonborn Clan
Sure, but if anything were likely to be on the same side as The Red Fleet if theyre doing something.
