A loooooong time ago, I use to have a little island in one of the maps, just in the CORNER of the map... Never meant to be interected with... lol... But I digress and I spam. My apologies

Resident nation: Lana i Discord name: stellar_auroras Map nation name: Lanae'n'i A couple sentences about your nation: (original content, not NationStates stats) Lanae'n'i is a cosmopolitan island nation. It was a Kingdom that was able to maintain its independence de jure independence through diplomacy and having good relationships both with colonizers and other native groups. Over the generations it eventually became a Constitutional Monarchy with a strong parliament based on its partner nations. Over the last fifteen years is historically very good public services have been eroded by austerity put in place by the Conservative Party and their coalition government. The Labour Party has been unable to provide a satisfying alternative for a nation desperate for change, leading to the creation of the Alliance Party which hopes to finally end the years of Conservative Party rule. Lanae'n'i's largest industry is tourism. Because of this they are quite protective of the natural environment around their island home. Doing everything possible to preserve the beaches and wildlife that lead tourist to visit the islands every year. A large percentage of workers belong to unions. Given the reliance on tourism and the nation's history, Lanae'n'i's foreign policy is focused on building strong economy and cultural ties while maintaining clear independence. They seek to build strong economic partnerships with as many nations as possible. They also always have been very accepting towards refugees and migrants.

Resident nation: Rtajad Discord name: manbreathing Map nation name: Rtajad A couple sentences about your nation: The Commonwealth of Rtajad (Rtajadsi Haitkra) is a federation of states under a republic. The head of state and the head of government of Rtajad is the Steward and is elected by the Council of States. The Steward holds supreme executive power and serves until his/her death or impeachment. The legislative branch of Rtajad's government is divided into two chambers, the Council of States and the Assembly. The Rtajadian national identity is centered around the Rtajadian language; anyone, regardless of race, religion, and other identities, who embraces the Rtajadian language and acknowledges Rtajadians as his/her brothers and sisters can be considered a Rtajadian. This concept stems from the legend of Srama, the fire-bringer and god of wisdom and virtue who rose among the tribes of what would become Rtajad and gifted humanity with Two Sacred Fires. He taught the scattered tribes a common tongue, the Rtajadian language, allowing them to unite and banish the False Powers from Rtajad. As his final act before ascending into the Oneness, the truth of this world, Srama anointed the first Mahru (sustainer of the fire), establishing a line of Mahrus annointing their successors. The Eighth Mahru, knowing that Rtajadians had matured enough to be worthy of Srama's fire, anointed the entire Rtajadian nation as Mahrus, for they had faithfully risen in Srama’s name and fought to uphold his truth. Rtajad’s right to bear arms originates from the Rtajadian Revolution (1095 - 1101 AF), a brutal conflict that toppled the separate Kingdoms that used to rule Rtajad and gave rise to the current Commonwealth. With no standing army, the revolution depended on citizen militias armed with looted or improvised firearms. These militias became the backbone of the revolution and remained active even after victory, leading to the right to bear arms being enshrined in the Instrument of Union and Common Authority. However, this results in a heavily armed society where security is remarkably decentralized and where armed militias are common occurrence over the course of the Commonwealth's history. As a consequence, Rtajadians often struggle to solve disputes without resorting to threat of arms. The economy of the Commonwealth is a regulated mixed system centered around a strong manufacturing base. Rtajad's primary exports are electronic products, a result of policies encouraging high-tech industries during the 1370s. A sizeable small arms manufacturing sector exists in Rtajad as well. Rivers on the east and the relatively calm Southern coast enable efficient transport of goods across Rtajad and support a niche shipbuilding sector (only if the red border application is approved). The nation relies primarily on imported fossil fuel for electricity, though a growing share of the nation's energy production is powered by renewables, especially hydroelectric power. The northeast maintains a decent sized agricultural sector, though Rtajad remains a net importer of food.

(this option is subject to Cartography Board approval) Any other inspirations or concepts you want to share: "Language nationalism" pulled straight out of Indonesia's Youth Pledge. Federal state with high number of ethnic groups (indigenous and newly arrived alike), based on Nigeria. Rtajadian language here is supposed to be a creole language that emerged around 300s BF which was and is spoken as a lingua franca across Rtajad. Government inspired by the English Commonwealth, though modified. Economy inspired by East Asian countries actively transitioning towards mid and high tech export-oriented manufacturing during the latter half of 20th century. Area ideally should be around the size of Great Britain, though I'm willing to shave off parts of the claim to preserve the high industrial output.
