Honestly for 2nd to last day of school i didn't expect there to be a fight, see one of my friends have their first kiss (stuff go wild on my bus), and winning a competition (And it is about time i do something)

Lkandriais offline but i know he will agree to me

LemonaThe Lemonan navy arrives at Cyprus, taking a pit stop there and claiming it for the nation. They set up a fort to easier allow an attack on the mainland of Pyhdon. Troops finally arrive at Cairo, and begin to attack the Pyrrish troops there already. Accompanied by numerous tanks and mechs, they march through the streets to attack. These mechs are quite new, being modeled after the old Dusk & Dawn mechs. They do not function as well, as the Orb technology has been lost to time. Planes fly over Cairo and bomb the city, specifically what is believed to be Pyhrrish hide outs.

PyhdonPyhdon defends, knowing that we will have a vote on if anything happens in the GA and the SC

In the battle recently, you can clearly see that lemona wins, pyhdon can't just say that he defends and not specify as lkandria said in his post

ARE YOU BLIND OR DON'T KNOW BASIC ENGLISH

Sorry

No one outside of Maen knows about the massacre, the world doesn't know it happened and not even the citizens of Maen know.

I made this explicit in the text for the love of god

No other nation has satellites and sees what happens in Maen? It is illogical that no one knows. The shootings are in the middle of the street. How can other nations not find out? That should be considered crimes against humanity. Once a nation has surrendered, there is no justification for mass shootings throughout the country. That no one reacts to this leaves me dumbfounded.

Are there no rules in this RP about crimes against humanity?

Puttt

In my high school there are Syrian kids who are refugees. They escaped from their country at war. Their houses were destroyed, close relatives died. They were left without water, electricity,... And they were able to escape. Why can't they escape from Maen? I don't think many people can escape, but it's practically impossible for anyone to escape.

Socialistic Britain

If you could prove that the information of the events was leaked in any way, you could probably justify finding out about it.

Example: Fleeing Maens, specks of which manage to escape and tell the tale to neighboring nations, cause an investigation to open, which could then be used to explain how finding it out wasn't a random thing, and just do things that would be justified under this investigation.

But do your own thing. And remember, all of you, that nothing is completely impenetrable. And when, not if, something slips through or someone slips up, you'll have to bear the consequences.

I agree with you in the first instance. Assuming these shootings are in the middle of the street, there is no hiding from that. I'm not in the RP, but I am at least assuming that it is MT, so there most likely would be some level of social media outrage as well.

As for the query about rules, I am not speaking for the MoC here, but purely my own viewpoint; I think crimes against humanity should be fully permissible within an RP environment, as they happen all the time. As long as they are handled with respect and maturity from players, I see no issue.

Speaking of RP rules, this RMB post is sponsored by Raid Shadow Legends the Commonwealth Party! Commonwealth has now published a new set of policy aims it wishes to see achieved within the RP community! I encourage everyone to check it out. Any questions or queries please feel free to ask!

They don't have access to even the slightest means of communication, and even if a nation said it saw this, it would have to prove it, Which would be almost impossible

Maen surrendered, there is no united nations to condemn actions, His territory is mine one way or another, so his people

Some members of Syria succeeded because their government was in civil war

I have enough soldiers not only to cover the maen but also the largest navy in the world, it would be as if the US invaded Cuba

Maen has technology from the 1800s on top of that, It is almost impossible for them to have fled and not been detected by a drone or soldier, And they still don't even have the necessary equipment to survive in the Indonesian forests.

Low chance doesn't mean impossible. One or two are bound to be succesful in a matter of weeks, considering how many would be daring to try knowing they're as good as dead if they stay. And they know this, because whatever you do the word will spread around the locals. Getting it across the border on the other hand, will be more difficult

Many nations can know what is happening anywhere on the planet without physically being there. There are satellites with great precision and GPS

I agree with you, they could escape

The only problem is the only nation that Maen borders is IBS, and that’s just on the island of Borneo

All the others would be stranded in the wilds and likely to get lost

Or the ocean, where they are likely to be found by New union boats

The only ones with this technology currently would be Britain, lkandria or another country with SA in 2020, because before that the photos were horrible and even today they are not good, And GPS uses satellites so it will work the same way

And someone would have to say that there would have to be a satellite at that moment, at that time, on that day, and if they said so, it would be justification for war by espionage

What I'm saying is that if they left the country, it would be before they found out what happened.

The army would make sure no one escaped, and I have superior technology than them, So they wouldn't be able to run very far, I don't think they even have cars or boats with fuel

And even if they wanted to run away, when the massacre started in their town, they would already be gone, so they wouldn't know about the massacre

Plus, if they decided to take photos, it would be metarp, because their countries have no reason to take photos of my territory

And if any citizen ran away, he would be an illegal immigrant, in a foreign country, speaking another language and without knowing the local language, which would probably make him homeless, until you suspect a massacre, My country would have already cleaned the cities

Residents of TRTHNBB,

Our Regional Election for May 2024 has concluded!

We received a record-shattering 47 valid votes this time, up roughly 57% from our last election! So many of you came out and voted, and it's been a real pleasure watching the results flood in and discovering what people truly believe is best for the region. Unfortunately, two of those votes were invalid and not fixed before the end of the election, so we had to discard them. Still, that leaves us with a truly massive number of votes. Thank you to everyone who voted!

Without further ado, it's time to announce the results of the election!

Mjau received a total of 19 first-choice votes.

Ardeyn received a total of 17 first-choice votes.

Thank you to my fellow TPP members for supporting me through it all. Thank you to all that have opposed my bills, and have taught me how to compromise and humble myself. And most of all, thank you to America The Greater, who has taught me how to legislate, and has taught me the skills to be Speaker.

I vow to you all that I will be a neutral voice in parliament when acting as Speaker. For this, I will be temporarily suspending my membership in TPP to observer status for the duration of my Speakership. I will do my best to keep parliament as non-partisan as possible, so that we can focus on the people of the region. In addition to that, I will be creating a new parliamentary committee: the Code of Conduct Committee. TG me to join it! If anybody wants to join or leave another committee you can TG for that as well.

I will be appointing America The Greater as the Chairperson of the Rules Committee. He’s already shown that he is a great fit, asking good questions and knowing better than anyone how the parliamentary debates are supposed to go.

I will also be opening up applications to be chair for the other 2 committees, with the below link:

Love the organization! I also just want to repeat this message from the Discord here on the RMB too, now that I'm officially no longer Speaker:

I couldn't be happier to be passing the torch on to our new Speaker of Parliament, The Kaverian! I had a great term as Speaker, and I truly feel it wouldn't have been nearly as productive without the enthusiasm and support of The Kaverian. TK was the closest thing this region had to a Deputy Speaker during that term, and in my opinion, there's no one I'd rather see take on the role. The management of Parliament isn't an easy task, but I have full faith in your abilities, TK. Good luck!

Our Regional Election for May 2024 has concluded!

We received a record-shattering 47 valid votes this time, up roughly 57% from our last election! So many of you came out and voted, and it's been a real pleasure watching the results flood in and discovering what people truly believe is best for the region. Unfortunately, two of those votes were invalid and not fixed before the end of the election, so we had to discard them. Still, that leaves us with a truly massive number of votes. Thank you to everyone who voted!

Without further ado, it's time to announce the results of the election!

[spoiler=PM Results]

Mj.Au received a total of 19 first-choice votes.

Hetonik Isles received a total of 3 first-choice votes.

Pyhd.On received a total of 0 first-choice votes.

After going through every round of elimination, eliminating Pyh.Don, Hetonik Isles, and The Was.Hington Federation, one candidate secured a majority of 25 votes:

LemonaThe Lemonan navy arrives at Cyprus, taking a pit stop there and claiming it for the nation. They set up a fort to easier allow an attack on the mainland of Pyhdon. Troops finally arrive at Cairo, and begin to attack the Pyrrish troops there already. Accompanied by numerous tanks and mechs, they march through the streets to attack. These mechs are quite new, being modeled after the old Dusk & Dawn mechs. They do not function as well, as the Orb technology has been lost to time. Planes fly over Cairo and bomb the city, specifically what is believed to be Pyhrrish hide outs.

America The Greater wrote:-Election Results!

Congratulations, to our New Prime Minister, Mjau, New Deputy Prime Minister, Western Arba Fir and new Speaker of Parliament, The Kaverian for running successful campaigns, I look forward to seeing your campaigns come to life and most importantly seeing an active Executive Office. My advice as a previous PM and DPM would be to take the government by the scruff of the neck, help to deliver change and don’t be scared to make mistakes or to wait for ‘permission’, ultimately government is about putting your stamp on the region, time is of the essence in the now 4 months we have between election terms.

Reflecting on this election campaign, it’s certainly been an impressive one and strange one, the NS server issues certainly didn’t help, thanks to America The Greater and the Election Commission for facilitating this one, the campaign turnout is in part a reflection of their good work in advertising this election. It’s also a reflection on the strength of feeling for change within the region, we cannot be stuck with a status quo government it simply doesn’t work, overwhelming support for the Mjau campaign has demonstrated that receiving 25 votes, similarly Ardeyn had more support than The Washington Federation did in our previous election receiving 22 votes (compared to TWF’s 17 when last elected). Ardeyn has much to contribute to the government, and I hope accommodations are made for this.

I am very pleased, I will be returning for a second term serving as Minister of Foreign Affairs. In my first term, we re-launched our regional Foreign Affairs, recognising the importance of having a broad vision and outwardly looking.

Some of our major achievements were as follows;

1. Playing a leading role in the Inter-regional Gameplay Organisation JEFF

2. Establishing embassies with The South Pacific, Europe, and Alcris

3. Co-hosting a Chess Arena with Forest, with 10 regions participating

4. Launching our Ambassador programme

5. Effectively utilising our forum page to provide FA updates

6. Calling out bigotry in the region of ‘Gravy’

I am looking to build on the achievements of my first term as Minister of Foreign Affairs, looking to continue to establish embassies with like minded regions, whilst also ensuring our ambassador programme is effectively working. I will look to appoint a Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs and Diplomacy Officer in due course.

My main priorities for our upcoming term;

1. Referendum on membership of the InterLeft

2. Organising our joint festival with Sol Aeternalis and Collonis Apollonis

3. Helping to organise and maximise foreign turnout in Summerfest

Points 2/3 are self explantory, however the InterLeft referendum maybe a surprise to many. I will bring about open discussions on this, however with the InterLeft server hack it has brought about discussions on our ongoing membership of this alliance, we have gained exceptional relations with all 3 regions, and from a TRTHNBB we have achieved a lot from the alliance. Yet it seems the IL has lost it's way, plagued with inactivity, with consecutive chancellors being unable to effectively realise any form of change within the organisation. As the Interleft is a solely discord based community, it does mean many members can't get too involved in it's politics. I look forward to your thoughts on this over the coming weeks, as we discuss this further!

Kind regards

What I'm saying is that if they left the country, it would be before they found out what happened.

The army would make sure no one escaped, and I have superior technology than them, So they wouldn't be able to run very far, I don't think they even have cars or boats with fuel

And even if they wanted to run away, when the massacre started in their town, they would already be gone, so they wouldn't know about the massacre

Those are good points. But I have to say that it doesn't change my point in the slightest. With how big Maen population is, dozens will escape no matter what.

Lack of technology is not a complete preventer too. Take example of numerous successful North Korea escapes by row boats for example.

The most dangerous animal you can deal with, is one that knows they have nothing to lose. And you created tens of millions of them. So, in my understanding, it should realistically go like this: millions try, knowing they'll die either way, thousands succeed in getting past first line of defences, a couple of hundreds get past the wilderness/sea/NU allied countries, 10-5 are able to get to the rest of the world and find a way to tell about the massacre to the rest of the world. With the population size you're dealing with, it's impossible to not get the news out.
