BB's on the forums! Should have realized that would have happened sooner or later.
-
Also, I've been thinking about releasing the newspaper just after Halloween, like November 1st or 2nd, just so we can include Z-4, and also so I can get everything else together. Opinions?
-
As DA of the press, I say we could have some not-so-serious news, along with a couple serious stories. I think roleplay might also be a good idea, like "Plane crash in Fujai's largest airport" or "Zogradi capital faces flooding".
Maybe we could invite other nations to write the roleplay stories.
-
Yep.
Yeah, you're right. I forgot about that bit.
I also thought "eye". Try "ey", as in "hey". It makes phonological sense, too, e (as in egg) + i (as in eel) = ey (as in Fujai).

Wait, it's not pronounced Dark-EE-jah? (with the J pronounced with a French accent (there's probably a sound for that in Englich, but I can't put it into words))
My mind has been thoroughly blown.
Fujai is pronounced Foo-JAY, as it says in my signature, because everyone I've seen try to pronounce it does it wrong. It doesn't help that Fujai is pronounced quite oddly for a nation with a language closely related to Norwegian, since Norwegian doesn't have a hard 'j' sound.
So, "ay" as in "pay"?

This thread is meant to help people know how to pronounce the names of our nations.
For example, Zogradia is pronounced "Zo" "grey" "dee" "uh", or in the IPA; /zoʊgreɪdiə/
(Also, Yakadu, Zogradia's capital, is pronounced "Ya-ka-du" with an "a" as in "arm")

Great to see another nation with a large Muslim population! As they say in Ikida;

Welcome to the West Pacific!
(Or at least the forums)

Let's hope NS gets around to updating the region's delegacy.
-
Sorry. I had to get it out of my system.

20 minutes to the next update, everyone! Endorse
Mediobogdum while you can, and un-endorse United RussoAsia while he is still controlled by Knot.URA has little influence after banjecting
Consular and Elegarth. Medio is 14 endorsements in the lead, let's make sure he stays in the lead. We will win back The West Pacific! It won't be pretty, it won't be that comfortable, and some of us are putting ourselves at risk of banjection, but if that's what it takes to win back our great region, then so damn well be it! Who's with me?Zogradia,
Also a resident of TWP

One of my favorites, of course, is Colorado's capitol. I went there a few times when I visited Denver back in July.
-
He is currently on as the United Korean Lands, not URA. Knot has complete control over URA.

I don't say we ban him, but he's not fit to be delegate anymore. At least not while Knot is running the Protectorate.
-
That looks amazing! An onion dome on top of the palace and some minarets could look even better. What resource pack are you using?
Thanks! I'm using the Erehwon pack.
Here's a few more shots I just took.

Well, this isn't really IRL, but this is the Zogradi Capitol (in the background) with a blue whale statue in front of it.
NOTE: This was taken a while ago, there is now a huge building behind the whale, which also serves governmental functions. (It's basically the sub-capitol)

In real life, basically every country has a national anthem, so I decided to create a forum where we can talk about our national anthems.
Zogradia's anthem is called "My Beautiful Zogradia" (lyrics here). It was partially inspired by Lupang Hinirang (Philippines), and has a similar rhythm, and is meant to be celebratory and cheerful. It's available in five languages (English, Korean, Arabic, Russian, and German), though the different languages would have different rhythms than the original English version (an Ikida translation is planned, too).

You're welcome to continue it.
I'll make a post in the IC Thread.
I'll continue it!

What about Cyrillic? Anyone else know Cyrillic?
-
I'm curious; can anyone else here read Arabic?

... I check in on the forums and NS every day. I'm not going anywhere.
Though I have been traveling quite a bit this past month (and I don't post much), so I guess I can't really blame you for thinking that.

I haven't gotten anything submitted to me yet, so I'm not sure how much material we have.
