Minister of Domestic Affairs (MoDA)
United Federal Districts, Bernie Nation, -Stans
IC: The Diplomatic Service of the Celestial Empire would like to propose a general international treaty on the conduct of diplomatic relations; the Shangyan Convention on Diplomatic Relations. The following is a general overview of its basic provisions. We invite all of the world's nations to participate in this treaty.
Shangyan Convention on Diplomatic Relations
I. Member of a diplomatic mission shall in most cases enjoy immunity from prosecution within the host nation.
II. The host nation at any time and for any reason can declare a particular member of the diplomatic staff to be persona non grata. The sending state must recall this person within a reasonable period of time, or otherwise this person may lose their diplomatic immunity.
III. The premises of a diplomatic mission, such as an embassy, are inviolable and must not be entered by the host country except by permission of the head of the mission. Furthermore, the host country must protect the mission from intrusion or damage. The host country must never search the premises, nor seize its documents or property. This provision extends to the private residence of the diplomats.
IV. The archives and documents of a diplomatic mission are inviolable. The receiving country shall not seize or open such documents.
V. The host country must permit and protect free communication between the diplomats of the mission and their home country. A diplomatic bag must never be opened even on suspicion of abuse. A diplomatic courier must never be arrested or detained.
VI. Diplomats must not be liable to any form of arrest or detention. They are immune from civil or criminal prosecution, though the sending country may waive this right. They are exempt from most taxes and customs duties.
VII. Actions not covered by diplomatic immunity or tax exemptions: professional activity outside diplomat's official functions within the host country.
VIII. The family members of diplomats that are living in the host country enjoy most of the same protections as the diplomats themselves.
Signatory Nations:
The Celestial Empire of Shangyan
United Federal Districts, -Stans, Ursus Island, New West Tropico, Territoire D Accord
IC: The Prefect of Foreign Affairs will sign the Shangyan Convention on Diplomatic Relations on behalf of the Kingdom of Molcadara.
IC: The Eastern Behrezvian government has signed the convention, and has as well done so for the Neschtstani government, as the Behrezvians are currently controlling the newly-rebuilding government.
IC: The Freely Thriving Peoples will gladly sign this ingenious document.
OOC: Hey, just something to think about on the side... Russia is the largest nation on the regional map. As well, it is actually larger on the map than it is in real life, as it occupies not only Russia, but Ukraine and Belarus, the Caucasus, and Kazakhstan, and the area of central Asia. Should we reduce the size of Russia to allow for more land for newer nations?
United Federal Districts, Bernie Nation, -Stans
OOC: As the successor state to the Russian Empire, its current borders make sense. However, it might be reasonable to make secession from Greater Russia an option for newer nations.
New West Tropico
The AFA has signed the convention, with a passing vote of 906 of 1347 delegates with most of the dissenters coming from the Traditional Party.
IC: after many debates the House of District Representatives and The Head of State agree to these basic principles. UFD will sign this agreement.
OOC: I agree that if the Regional Map gets filled up that the largest nations should be ask to cede land.
OOC: If that becomes the situation, I believe such secessions must be handled in a way that is ICly consistent.

(OOC)
Good point! I'd like more -Stans than the 2 I currently have.
OOC: That's always struck me as a bit strange. The various stans belong to entirely different culture groups, and you have already achieved the pan-national aims of the largest one of those groups.
-Stans
IC: When will the referendum on ownership of the regions of Odessa, Izmail and Podolia occur?
IC: The Diplomatic Service of the Celestial Empire believes that if the referendum is to be conducted by both the government of the Socialist Republic of Russia, and the People's Republic of Eastern Behrezvia, as we believe to be the current agreement, it is a matter to be settled between your governments. If, on the other hand, you wish for the referendum to be conducted by an unbiased third party, that third party would need to be explicitly named.
Incidentally, has the Socialist Republic of Russia had the time to peruse the Shangyan Convention on Diplomatic Relations?
OOC: This nation does't represent any of those culture groups, as it is meant to be from far in the future where those groups have changed a lot. Which group are you referring to when you talk about the largest group?
Post self-deleted by Molcadara.
OOC: That was embarrassing. I meant the Pashtuns, a large ethnic group in Afghanistan and Pakistan, previously both owned by the Durrani Empire.
-Stans
IC: The Secretariat of Molcadaran Providence would like to announce a streamlining and enhancement of the social policies of the Kingdom of Molcadara. Recognizing that the salary limit of 500,000 Sheqels is unduly low, based on inflation and average income increases since its establishment, and recognizing the inefficiency of the unemployment subsidies and wage subsidies for the underemployed, the Secretariat of Molcadaran Providence will be abolishing all three of these institutions. In their place will be a basic income allowance equal to a third of the average income in Molcadara, with the substantially progressive taxes being the main upward limit to incomes. This, combined with the free Molcadaran healthcare and education, and corporatistic arrangements between vocational guilds and the Secretariat, will ensure a higher minimum standard of living than existed under the previous system, while abolishing inorganic and rigid strictures.
Head of State, Vladimir Rezinov is flying to Yolde to speak directly to Officer Wuff. Privately.
OOC: That's strange. I had expected to be the first person to have an official state visit.
Do you feel it necessary to comment on everything I post?
OOC: I guess we'll find out.

I'm having serious problems with the region I've founded, and I don't know how to solve them. The role-play got messed up and a bunch of the most active members left. Also, there's been a lot of really harsh argument in the RMB.
Here's a link: https://www.nationstates.net/region=future_earth
Thanks in advance!
What the hell is a "mother knows best state" is that a full on matriarchy??? Or is that just "flavour" based on the gender of the nations leader?
We are willing to sign the Shangyan Convention on Diplomatic Relations.
We also call on the Eastern Behrevzian government to work with us to set up a referendum on the ownership of Odessa, Podolia and Izmail.
Flavour.
That's a bit complex of a matter to ask for help on, but if you could give me a general overview of the timeline of events, I'd do my best to give my advice.
-Stans
So it's a future tech role-play region set in 2500, and some nations thought some other nations were using too advanced technology. People were getting really mad at each other (too a level that I think is too much for a game like this), and now around 5 really active nations out of 15 have left the region. The nation they are mad at also is overstepping their power, in my opinion.
When you're not using a real life period, it's extremely important for the RP rules to be specific about the technology cap before the RP starts, and to have someone specifically responsible for deciding on cases that are open to interpretation.

IC: Due to a exterme recent drop in Historical Apathy in New West Tropico the Militaristic Nationalism has been growing at extremely quick rates in Tropico it is believed this will impact the upcoming election in Tropico heavily.
Jiangai, Molcadara
IC: The Kingdom of Molcadara will be observing the election with great interest. The Sarrum wishes the Tropican people the best outcome.
IC: The Diplomatic Service of the Celestial Empire thanks the parties that have signed the convention thus far, and expresses the hope that all nations will become signatory to this Convention.
IC: The Kingdom of Molcadara would like to know if any of the coastal Cantabrian communes would be willing to enter a long-term lease agreement to allow a Molcadaran naval base on their coastline. They would be well-compensated, and it would be a great help in the future. If it would make the deal any more acceptable, we would also be willing to offer the Cantabrian communes our protection against external aggression.
IC: with the new candidates for President being announced it was found Cody the current president is running again but under a new party of his creation called The Nachashist Party Of Tropico (TNPT) this socked The Social Democratic Party as Cody has been a loyal member for quite some time the party is growing extremely quickly due to the rise of militaristic nationalism is still on the rise.
OOC: Perhaps you meant socked in terms of being punched, which could fit here in a figurative sense.
There have been three offers so far, one from Xixón in the Federated Communes of Asturies, one from the Commune of La Manga Baja in Murcia and one in the Independent Commune of Gran Canaria, which already houses the Cantabrian Atlantic fleet.
Xixón is willing to lease 5250 sq m in the harbour (with the local Coastal barrage and fortress) for a total cost of 522,600 pesetas per month.
La Manga Baja is willing to offer 9800 sq m of undeveloped land for a cost of 2,500,750 pesetas to the Shangyanian authorities without monthly payment on the condition of joint use by the Cantabrian Navy.
Gran Canaria is willing to allow Shangyanian warships into port for a cost of 25,000 per ship per night.
IC : The Sarrepontian people's assembly has expressed its dismay concerning the militarist concord between the friendly federation of Cantabria and the theocratic kingdom of Molcadara. We believe that such cooperation should not exist, since despotism is our common ennemy.
As communes are independent they are not required to abide by the Common Military Law of Cantabria (Compact III, article 31 prohibits this) but the Federated Supreme Tribunal will hold a meeting to check if they abide by Federated Maximum Law.
Moments before noon, three days ago shots were fired by radical members of the Traditionalist Parties at other MPs. Very soon after conservative elements of the Cantabrian Federated Army revolted and are in control of 14 divisions, 13 militia, and one regular. They are also in Control of the entire south, Valencia, large swaths of Extremadura and Madrid, Galicia and the entire Independent Federation of Portugal. They are also in control of the Balear and Canary islands.
The entire government was massacred and a provisional grand coalition has taken control of the nation. Protocol 51, signalling the unification of the Republic has been issued. The government predicts loss of the Madrid commune is inminent and that the trade unions much be armed.
The Supreme General-in-Chief of the SFA declared a policy of "iNo Pasaran!" and mobilised all the militias of the army.
A day after Nationalist forces entered the city of Madrid, and although they encountered fierce resistance, especially through the Lavapies borough it eventually fell, with the TV tower being the last position inside the M-44 highway held. The Federal Radio Service played morale-boosting music through the day until the Nationalists finally blew it to the ground.
The Third Spanish Civil War has begun, and Cantabria may not win...

Remember the "IC:" when you are RPing [nation=short]Primera Republica de Cantabria[/nation] :P
IC: All main oldmanian Newspapers and officials are concording to say that: "Well that is escalated quickly".
Kurwa!
We need help you suka blyat!
IC: The Kingdom of Molcadara graciously accepts Xixon's offer, and would like to pay one hundred years of rent up front.
Primera Republica De Cantabria
OOC: Molcadara agreed to protect you from external threats, not internal ones, but they'll almost certainly intervene if you ask them to.
IC: The Diplomatic Service of the Celestial Empire believes that mass violence will only result in mass suffering and the devastation of the Iberian peninsula. We encourage negotiations between the factions as a means of ending the conflict.
IC: The Kingdom of Molcadara would like to lease coastal land for a military base in New West Tropico, in exchange for rent and assistance in defense from external threats.
The Prefecture of Foreign Affairs intends on waiting for an official request for assistance by the Cantabrian government. To do otherwise would put their sovereignty in question.
OOC: Well, I'm back
Hi back.
What did I miss?
Trump has been replaced with an autonomous AI. :)
The outbreak of Iberian Civil War, for one.
Post self-deleted by Eastern Behrezvia.
The Prime Directress Sabine Sigmar on the behalf of the entire Nation openly condemns all violent actions prosecuted by the responsible of the mass murder happened in Cantabria, the army is now alerted and ready to intervene if the Cantabrian government send an official request.
She pointed also out that the Regional Office and all Nations have to encourage the Cantabrian government to take on some deep reforms about its security, to avoid that a civil war happens nearly every year as it is happened in the last period.
"We are friends of the Federation, we will protect it" she concluded.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Science Dir. will sign the convention.
Really? Huh. Anything else?
Yes, the numbers of the map are "virtually" invisible. You may have to repost it in a better resolution, I suggest you through Imgur.
IC: The Kingdom of Molcadara is also prepared to intervene at Cantabria's request, and has prepared a number of suggested actions for the Cantabrian Government's consideration.
On another note, the Kingdom of Molcadara would like the permission of the Science Directorate of Oldmanzakk to begin negotiations with Koalaurope on a similar point to its agreements with New West Tropico and Cantabria.
IC: Koalaurope indipendent government will be immediately informed an official will speak to Molcadara anytime soon.
IC: Is it appropriate for the Kingdom of Molcadara to offer the Koalaurope independent government our military protection from external threats, or would that offer be more appropriately extended to the Science Directorate itself? It is a common thread in our military base lease agreements.
The government has requested that 10 years of rent be paid in armament and that it will accept only a further 50 years of lease.
IC: The Kingdom of Molcadara accepts, and would like to schedule a meeting in ten years to discuss the possibility of extending the lease. Would the State of Cantabria like the assistance of the Molcadaran Military in the current conflict?
IC: After a short battle in which the nationalists strategically withdrew the Federated National Government has retaken Madrid. The FNG wishes to inform that a massive artillery barrage by the retreating nationalists has destroyed most of the city, including the M-44 motorway, the railway knot of Atocha-Entrevias and the Madrid Sindicato de Labor Airport. Also, it was discovered that 2,100 federal citizens, mostly communists and syndicalists have been massacred in the Puerta del Sol. The FNG has requested that the revolting powers enter peace talks but no response has been given yet.
The government requests that Shangyan station a brigade at Xixon to defend its anchorage and requests broader aid (including military aid) to rebuild the country.
OOC: You do realize you have been dealing with Molcadara, correct?
IC: We seem to have everything in control but we would request you to maintain your military on high alert.
IC: Molcadara, what the hell is that?
OOC: Yep, memory failed.
IC: Molcadara, what the hell is that?
OOC: Yep, memory failed.
Post self-deleted by Molcadara.
OOC: So, do you want me to just maintain my military at high alert, or do you want me to provide broader aid to rebuild the country?
OOC: Both.
IC: The Secretariat of Molcadaran Providence will begin providing humanitarian aid to the Cantabrian people, and has distributed contracts to Molcadaran enterprises to assemble the resources for physical reconstruction. The Molcadaran Military's garrison will arrive at the base shortly.
The anarchists brigades, totalling 43.000 brigadiers, have disembarked in Cadix and are now ready to fight !
The brigades are composed mostly of Sarrepontian, West-Timorese, Yodleans, Tropicans, Oldmanian and Russians volunteers.
The troops are highly motivated, since they can finally be engaged in battle, but we lack in heavy weaponry and we do not have any kind of heavy/armored vehicles. Also, our transport vehicle fleet is limited.
Along with the brigades, Sarrepont is ready to provide a small shipment of 50 light all-terrain infantry mobility vehicles, around 20 light armoured vehicles, and 120 Sarrepontian VAB ("Véhicules de l'Avant Blindé", Armoured Vanguard Vehicles).
Our troops are now at the disposal of the Cantabrian army.
OOC: This is probably fine, but remember to get people's permission before you use their citizens for things.
IC: Military supplies should arrive shortly.
IC: The Eastern Behrezvian government has announced they will be providing military support, in the form of 5,000 soldiers. Their primary purpose will be as peacekeepers to defend the civilians.
OOC: Yodle I think we should hold a poll to decide whether or not to reduce the size of Russia on the regional map.
OOC: This is a matter to be discussed privately by the relevant officials before a poll is considered. We have to consider all angles and measure the effects of precedents. Why don't you join me on the Discord, where we can discuss this further?
OOC : Btw, I am writing a factbook on the international anarchists brigades.
Ansuriel
OOC: Well, when I have actual internet access, I'll do that. At the moment the most I have is school internet, where the proxies I use are limited.
OOC: Then this matter can be put off until then.
YOU STEAL MY LAND AND THEN PROPOSE TO HOLD A POLL TO MAKE ME SMALLER!!! YOU SHALL EXPERIENCE THE TRUE FURY OF THE RUSSIAN DOUBLE HEADED EAGLE!!!!! RUSSIA IS IMMORTAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sarrepont
IC: The Ord Treans have collectively supported the Cantabrian Traditionalist party's revolt, stating that they are happy to provide military support.
OOC: And where is this nation on the map?
IC: The Western Behrezvian government has supported the Traditionalists as well, announcing their intent to provide military support to the revolutionaries, in the form of supplies, and airstrikes.
The Premier Minister of Koalaeurope is informed of the proposal of [nation=short]Molcadara[/nation]: "we do not accept foreign powers to have bases in our lands this is due to a law made after the declaration of independence from Oldmanzakk to prevent any forced intromission in our sacred lands devoted to the maintainance of the delicated environment we have and its dwarf Koalas" I am sorry but I have to deny your request. We don't want to upset you it's just our law. Other types of accords will be taken in consideration however. We please your diplomats and politicians to message directly the Koalaurope government for any official request. Bless your be your Path, May your baskets be full of Eucalyptus.
IC: Are there any arrangements or services that the Kingdom of Molcadara could provide to the State of Koalaurope in exchange for an exception to this policy being legislated? There are any number of ways we could contribute to the environmental well-being that would offset the costs of the military base.
Post self-deleted by Oldmanzakk.
IC: For instance, the Kingdom of Molcadara could subsidize the maintenance of offshore wind farms, as an example, which would reduce Koalaurope's required expenditures, and therefore allow for the disassembling of unavoidably environmentally obstructionist constructions that were previously required to pay for environmentally friendly power generation.
