Resident name: Federal Republic of Prole

 

Discord name: mpas220#5530

 

Map nation name: Prole

 

A couple sentences about your nation: The Federal Republic of Prole (pro-leh) is a bi-cameral legislature with a president as the head of state. The nation deposed its former monarchy in the early 1800s after a brief civil war when the general public grew tired of high taxes and low income only to better the lives of the monarchy. Today the country still has a strong agrarian industry as well as timber, but has increased its service and technology sector to try to catch-up with its neighbors. High speed rail has been prioritized to connect cities as well as passenger cars to traverse the large distance between major cities. When the industrial age took hold of Prole the architectural style went crazy with the steel artwork design and steel manufacturer’s became the largest businesses in the nation, marking a stark contrast to the agricultural countryside.

Welcome @no1crate, @Radlowia, @Hezur, and @Saranzio!

@Prole to request a place on the map, you must first have applied for citizenship in TWP. We will process your Mapplication™ once you have done this.

For balancing purposes, some of your responses relating to your nation's basic statistics had to be changed. Please check the Big Book of Numbers and let us know via DM if you'd like any of them changed and we'll work on it together. You can also check out more info on balance in the Session Zero/Balancing Guidance. We encourage you to use the Sheets comment feature to comment desired changes on cells in your row and we'll update them for you (this also applies to blank cells).

The following balance changes were made:

Spoiler

Albiceleste:

  • Decreased requested GDP/Capita
  • The three letter code ALC is already taken by Alchera, please choose another by commenting on the corresponding cell in the Big Book of Numbers (not balance-related)

Bulguria:

  • Decreased requested GDP/Capita (GDP/Capita was chosen over other metrics to decrease for balance due to the nation's history of internal strife—above average was requested and average was given)

Hezur:

  • None

Saranzio:

  • Decreased requested land area (kept mostly coastal/island areas due to Saranzio's maritime culture. Let me know if this doesn't jive for you and you'd like to explore other options)

Resident nation: The Isle of Reinbas

Discord name:  The IOR #7842

Map nation name: The Isle of Reinbas

A couple sentences about your nation: 

The Isle of Reinbas, or IOR for short, is a constitutional monarchy that works through a system of three councils. These Councils all collectively represent the people and are elected on a four-year rotation. The Councils hold a large amount of power; however, they are still beholden to the will of the Monarch. The Monarch, King Henry Reinbas VIII, has caused a lot of unrest due to his continued opposition to the works of the Councils, which has vastly limited their power. Because of this, the Monarchy is falling out of favor with the people, who are pushing for a new system of governance entirely run by the Councils.

As it stands The IOR is likely to undergo a coup sooner rather than later, and I think that I would like to meet with some people whose nations may hold a vested interest in undermining the Monarchy and assisting the people in pulling off this coup. Also I selected a spot near the sea as I think that there would be a large sector of fishing exports from the capital city (marked in blue). The other two major cities (marked in red) are Williamstown and Reinbast.

Can I get on the map? If so could I get the white area of land between Saint Mark and Orandia. Also the capital could be on the coast of that bay area that's near Orandia's capital. My nation's name is Campa Simpatica. 

Edit: Sorry I just noticed that that's not a bay after looking closer, the capital can be anywhere on the coast really, also if possible maybe at that island towards the East too.

Keeping a similar area but with the requested total population would not mesh well with the otherwise large population centers along the Mille-Mer

Garahun:

  • Increased requested population—below average was requested, average was given.
  • Decreased requested population density—above average was requested, below average was given.
    • Due to your large requested land area, an overall high population density would lead to much larger population. This population can obviously still be concentrated along the gulf
  • Decreased requested GDP/Capita—average was requested and below average was given due to the country's decades-long conflict and massive government focus on military over services.
  • Also, let me know what proportion of the country's population lives in the occupied area and I will note it on the Big Book of Numbers

Map nation name: Czuleck

 

A couple sentences about your nation: (original content, not NationStates stats)

Czuleck is an confederation, made up of 7 communes (think of US states), with those made up of sub regions, and so on. The nation was formed after a civil war, ranging from 1377-1387, toppled the autocratic government ruled by Colonel Lewibarr. Since then, the confederation has focused on proving universal social services to all, as well as maintaining an adequately sized defense force. The nation is led by direct democracy, wherein the people vote in city/constituency wide assemblies. Whilst it has elements of democratic confederalism within society, such as a nation-wide assembly/certain services provided to all, it also primarily is made up of anarchist values, such as direct democracy, local town councils having more authority nationwide, no leader, and a heavily decentralized society focused on bottom up movements.

resident nation: Democratic People's Republic of Karlica

 

Discord name:  Mr.Sherloc#2417

Map nation name: Karlica  

A couple sentences about your nation: 

The Democratic Peoples Republic of Karlica, also known as DPRK, is a nation located in the Western part of the continent. The nation has a long and rich history dating back to the early 1000s.

In the early 1000s, Karlica was a loosely organized confederation of tribes that inhabited the region. These tribes were constantly at war with each other, fighting for land and resources. However, by the 1200s, the tribes began to unite under a single ruler, and a centralized state was formed.

During the 1300s, Karlica experienced a period of significant economic and cultural growth. The nation became a center of trade and commerce, and its cities flourished with artists, intellectuals, and merchants. However, this period of prosperity was cut short in the late 1300s when Karlica was invaded by a neighbouring empire. The nation was forced to pay tribute to the invaders for several decades, and many of its people were enslaved.

In the early 1400s, a rebellion led by a charismatic leader named Kajum led to the overthrow of foreign rulers and the establishment of the Democratic Peoples Republic of Karelia. Kajum instituted a series of reforms that aimed to create a more egalitarian society, including land redistribution and the establishment of a national healthcare system.

Since its founding, the DPRK has remained committed to socialist principles, with a focus on collective ownership of the means of production and the provision of universal social services. The nation is led by a government that is elected by the people through a system of direct democracy, with citizens participating in local assemblies to make decisions about their communities.

Despite facing challenges such as civil unrest, ethnic crisis, and the assassination of Dr. Peuko, Former President of Karlica and General Secretary of The National  Party, etc. the DPRK has remained resilient and continues to pursue its vision of a socialist society.

@New England-New Brunswick You need to first apply for citizenship in the region. You can do so here.

@Karlica We will reach out to you on the RP Discord to work on the territorial claim. At this time it was far too large for a new player. 

@Nixs Thank you for applying for citizenship. At this time the mainland territory is great (we do love border gore), but the island chain is so disconnected that it would not be accepted at this time. Further discussion can be had on the RP Discord.

Resident nation: Minamiaozora

Map nation name: Aozora (Long: The Republic of Aozora, Minamika and Kitora

A couple sentences about your nation: Aozora is a nation that is spread across the timeworn sea. It consists of the Islands and the Mainland. The island has the much higher population and is the dominant region of the nation.

I don't really know the history yet, but in around 500BCE then my peoples lived in northern Aura. Some then left and then moved onto the island, and the cultures slowly grew apart. At some point, they then reunited but the history of the islanders allowed them to grow much quicker and powerful than the main island

the culture is was originally seafaring which is why they spread to many islands

We are quite a liberal and technological nation, and I would think the economy is quite advanced, producing things like cars, electrical components, and machinery.

In the outside Candelù seems like a classical small country, not really remarkable.
However, never judge a book by it’s cover, in fact, Candeluian people are really welcoming, they can make you laugh with the most typical jokes in Candelù, or talk for hours and hours about the legends that passed from generations to generations, since the arrival of humanity on the lands of Candelù, inspired from north italian folklore stories

The main language is Candeluian, a romance language almost identical to italian, more specifically, venetian italian.

Resident nation: The Republic of San Augurius

Discord name: Tex-Mex#3212

Map nation name: San Augurius

A couple sentences about your nation:

The Republic of San Augurius started as a small city-state in the central Polaris desert, named after the native god of the Sanaugurisians, Saint Augurius. Over the centuries, through trade, some conquest, and lots of diplomacy and backroom deals, the Republic of San Augurius weaseled its way out of being consumed by neighboring states. The Republic now stands as a federation of city-states, under the overarching authority of the central, largest city, San Augurius, which the state as a whole is named after. There are dozens of semi-autonomous cities of varying sizes within San Augurius, which operate with their own laws and governmental structures, but all must report to the federal government based in the city of San Augurius.
