What did I miss?
My bad
I SAID WHAT DID I MISS!!!!!!!!!!!
Some dank memery
Bernie Nation, Yodle
Oh. OK then.
According to all known laws
of TRTHNBB,
there is no way a bad meme
should be able to spam the RMB.
Its benefits are too small to tolerate its
fat script in this RMB
The meme, of course, spams anyway
because memes don't care
what humans think is F*CKING ANNOYING.

Plomo posted the whole bee movie script in the RMB. Quite impressive, but i'm asking myself... is either this script so small that it doesn't explode the capabilites of the RMB or is this RMB just immune to long texts.... i'm honestly tempted to post a whole shakespear play to test it out.... but i atleast want to pretend that i have a life.
Yodle, Arguin Isle, New West Tropico
There are full online Shakespeare works that you can copy off one page and then post.
it would be a double standard if i condemn a certain type of spampost and then do exact thing myself, no matter the quality of its content.
Shakespeare isn't a meme though
Hum. The far-right has a high probability to win in France.

Well played.
Facts are that the Right-wing (Mainly "Les Républicains") is losing speed -because of François Fillon, their leader, being a filthy liar and absolutly corrupted- ; it gives huge opportunities for the Front National to attract their supporters.
Jean-Luc Mélenchon, from the far-left "France Insoumise" movement, which I and my comrades support, is actually sadly having troubles to attract people. On another hand, though, he has the wordl's biggest political channel on Youtube.

I sure hope the far-right doesn't gain power in France, or anywhere for that matter.

Following new legislation in The Socialist Republic of Russia, former nobles are being issued new identities in the wake of the end of serfdom.
Apparently I still had serfdom until now
Even though Russia abolished serfdom in 1861

Hello residents. I'm America the Greater, Minister of Foreign Affairs, and I'm running in the Presidential Election as the candidate for The Greens! I'm siding with the Greens because our focus is and has always been on bringing power to the people at large, and I have a big problem with some of the proposed legislation from certain DSP members. Consolidation of that power won't do anything except bring upon us an oligarchy. I'm running with Primera Republica De Cantabria, and we're in the race to build a true government of the people and for the people, with everyone free to participate and make a difference. We won't stand for anything less than equality, and we will fight to maintain and strengthen the people's hold on our government. With you at our side, we can keep the word "elite" out of the picture. Thank you.

We have too many kings in this region ! We should decapite some of them...
Primera Republica De Cantabria, Socialistic Unions
Again, am I able to claim land for Manitoba before it can join the region? I'm unable to right now but I intend to.
Yodle is probably your best bet to answer that.
Well, I'm currently using a computer that I have to use a proxy; this makes it impossible to send telegrams, or make my new nation join a region.
Greetings everyone!
I am [nation=short]Freewire[/nation], ambassador from The Confederacy Of Free Nations. I'm hopeful to meet some new people and forge closer relationships between our regions.

I'm gonna update the map today, so I'll see what I can do
I'm a little confused why do we have a diverse group of political parties but yet are region is supposed to spread democratic socialism? I would like to hear everyone's thoughts about this and maybe we could get legislation to change this faulty concept.
Because there are different branches in "socialism". In this region, there are a lot of social-democrats (lel), some socialists, some marxists, some anarchists...

Our region is open to everyone, and it's good to give everyone a place to voice their opinions. A lot of democratic socialism is here, but really it's in the spirit of everyone on the left to allow people to join in, regardless of their personal ideology.
-Stans, Yodle, Primera Republica De Cantabria
My particular policy preferences, for instance, would be more accurately described as state capitalism with a special orientation towards meritocracy than socialism.

A majority of member regions of the Solidarity Pact of the NSLeft have voted to approve the addition of The Region That Has No Big Banks to the Pact, so I am excited to say:
Congratulations, comrades, on joining the Solidarity Pact of the NSLeft!
Here is the treaty, so that everyone may familiarize themselves with it: page=dispatch/id=744991
In order to list TRTHNBB as an official member, we will need a short description of the region for this dispatch:

We all look forward to fostering a productive alliance with The Region That Has No Big Banks! Solidarity, comrades!

Er, why is Turkey open? I thought I still owned it.
Quick question: What does the target thingy do?
I apperently have 1 loss but I don't know when that happened.
it's a feature added for NS's 10th Anniversary, basically you "challenge" another Nation by comparing your stats on random topics, like average income, health, crime rate, etc.
People can challenge without the need to notify you since it's a passive thing, and everything is calculated automatically.

Actually beat both 1 and 2 as paragon. Accidentally pressed space to skip dialogue and had a tragic accident in 1, but getting through 3 ok. So many Citadel quests.

It wasn't the best, but it certainly wasn't the worst. If you add all the DLC to it, it's absolutely fantastic. I think the main reason people didn't like it was because it's very hard to end a trilogy that good, so there were some unrealistic expectations.

Hi Residents (old and new)! So right now our Presidential Election is currently running, and given the slow voter turnout thus far, I will be extending this vote till at least Wednesday (the 15th) if necessary (generally speaking, I want to get atleast 20 votes in, to make sure we have a good minimum representative of the majority), here is the link to vote: https://goo.gl/forms/6e4EfhIvfqMb6n1w1
Also keep in mind that the written link, as well as the link on the WFE, is the link for the actual Presidential Election and not the Preliminary Poll!
All candidate information can be found in the regional newspaper, The Social Reformer! A link for which is provided here: https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=688231
Read up before you vote!
Please remember that Saturday (the 18th) is the scheduled date for our Prime Minister Elections. This will mean that a scheduled debate will be determined in the coming days! I would like all PM Candidates to post again in the RMB to remind everyone that they're running. They should include info for their party affiliation, a basic idea of what their plans to do as PM will be, as well as other tidbits of info that they think might appeal to voters. PM candidates can telegram me or message me on Discord to get some help! This election will take the place of Session V of Parliament.
If you have any questions about the above statements, please telegram me and I can answer them for you!
Thanks,

Important PSA for all Residents
Got 10 minutes to spare? Are you bored? Then you should take some time to fill out the March/April 2017 Regional Census! :D
This census that has just been released for everyone to take asks many questions that cover a lot of topics. Its purpose is to create a historical record and various statistics for multiple uses and public consumption! The results of the census will be released in a special edition of The Social Reformer at some point in April in order to get the most accurate and detailed Census we can possibly develop, as well as to try and determine exactly how many active nations are in the region currently! :3 Every unique nation should fill it out, even if you don't participate in any regional activities or our Discord. I will send out weekly reminders until the start of April to everyone, but I highly suggest if you have 10 minutes to spare right now that you quickly fill it out!! :D
Here's the link to Regional Census, where you can fill it out on your own time: https://goo.gl/forms/8orMrTkFT2bnHuN52

IC: The Celestial Empire would be pleased to conclude a free trade agreement and direct bilateral currency exchange agreement with the Atlantic Chain.
No that was good. But because of your name I thought you were french :/
IC : The federal republic is interested in a trade agreement with the Atlantic Chain
Maerica :
« In our narrow, confined existence, we tend to forget the essence of life ... All of us, whatever our occupation or class, are equally guilty: the employer is lost in the running of his business; the workers, sunk in the abyss of their misery, raise their heads only to cry in protest; we, the politicians, are lost in daily battles and corridor intrigues. All of us forget that before everything else, we are men, ephemeral beings lost in the immense universe, so full of terrors. We are inclined to neglect the search for the real meaning of life, to ignore the real goals - serenity of the spirit and sublimity of the heart ... To reach them - that is the revolution.»

Oh Shoot! I missed the voting. Dang it.
Btw, I would make some announcements about the elections in France in order to give you some feedback (if you are interested.)
Actually, we would have this saturday a march in Paris for the sixth republic, with J.L. Mélenchon, and other organisations and parties. The Anarchist Federatipn was at first planning to participate, but another organization, the PIR (A party of antisemitic and racists far-right muslims) also decided to take parti in the march : The anarchist federation do not want to be with them, so they would not take part.
Anyway we hope to have more than 70.000 people for this march.
