Please add this description to Esquarium and remove the forum embassy link, it's been dead for a good year and a half and was used for like 2 weeks.

Description: Esquarium is an active modern-tech roleplaying region that welcomes all RPers and even non-RPers as long as they're willing to stay and talk. The region mostly emphasises on crisis/international politics roleplaying as is standard across most of NationStates II, but we also have a rather good history of sporting events and also build lots of canon between our nations, that we usually feature on offsite resources such as IIwiki. There is no regional government, and most decisions are taken by pestering the WA Delegate consensus.

Description added and old link utterly destroyed.

[Nautarya]

Much obliged.

[Dr George]

Philosophy 115 is an active region by most metrics: it is well within the top 100 largest regions in NS by population; it has a forum; it has a blog; it has a regional flag; it has a very active RMB; and it even has its own regional anthem!

Philosophy 115 (region)
Forum: http://z7.invisionfree.invalid.com/Philosophy_115/index.php?
Blog: http://hauntedrollercoaster.wordpress.com/
IRC: http://client00.chat.mibbit.com/?channe ... .esper.net
Regional Anthem: http://theskeletonarmy.wordpress.com/20 ... -115-song/

Description: Philosophy 115 is a region devoted to the study and debate of all manners of philosophy; nothing is off-bounds, nothing is assumed. Secondarily, it is a platform for friendship, fellowship, fun, mutual support, advice, etc. We have traded ambassadors with several regions with whom (for the most part) we have a long history together and a great affinity for; for other compatible regions we swap embassies. We are a neutral region and generally try to avoid involvement with the R/D aspect of the game. We are mostly a serious region, although some minor RP is acceptable, such as accepting a plate of virtual muffins.

Government: Philosophy 115 is a Direct Democracy with all major decisions decided by majority vote on the RMB, with the exception of the selection of the WAD, who is elected directly by the endorsements of the WA nations in the region. The Founder, Dr George, handles routine administration, posts daily rankings based on the WA ranking of the day and is the official representative of the region.

Have you requested this be pinned? It is an excellent resource.

[Tancerlo]

I have not, as of yet. I'm glad you think it's useful though.

I've talked with Nai and will be taking over the historic forum list as well, to keep that updated. I'm not sure whether to place it in a separate thread, or in the second post of this one. I'm leaning towards the latter.

[Tancerlo]

Added a description for The Communist Bloc that was provided via telegram.

Edit: And The Eternal Knights.

Edit again: Descriptions for Mordor and United Sovereign Socialist Republics.

2014 Constitutional Convention: http://z3.invisionfree.invalid.com/Region_of_Ga ... wforum=112



Description: Gay currently contains 143 nations, the 73rd most in the world. Gay is an LBGTQ region, providing a safe haven for all LGBTQ persons on NS and welcoming of all open-minded people for civil discussion, strategizing for gay equality on NS and IRL, and friendships. As an ancient region founded in the very early days of NS, it consists of many experienced people from all walks of life, from straight allies to closeted teenagers to people who have been out for decades.

Government: Democracy with an elected delegate/founder, a two-housed legislature, and a Supreme Court; they discuss all matters of regional importance, including a new Constitution for 2014, which will be at least the third such in the history of Gay. Gay is a defender region with historic ties to the FRA and two delegates on the FRA's governing Regional Assembly.

Description added.

Also added for The Coalition of Democratic Nations as per telegram.

I requested a lock for the embassy you linked to for The Eternal Knights, since we no longer wish to have one. So the one included is to a locked thread. Would you mind removing it? Sorry, forgot to ask that when I sent the description and links.

Warzone Europe

Region
Forum (Subject to relocation in the next few weeks, will update link)
IRC
Consitution

Warzone Europe is a relatively small region with a fiercely independent, but warm and welcoming community. We are established in one of the set of Six Warzones, the typically forgotten Game Created Regions that were made to be fought over by other groups. As a Warzone, we provide one of the most interesting experiences a player can ask for, from a Gameplay perspective. Our community is small, but our citizens are active, happy to contribute to the region, and will always fight for our sovereignty.

[Tancerlo]

Both done!

Also added description for Sovereign Charter as per telegram.

[Archeuland and Baughistan]

Alliance of Protestant Nations
A Christian region with a passion for God's word.
Theocratic Government

[Felandos]

Atheist Empire

Description: Founded in the early days of NS, Atheist Empire (Æ) is the premier region for atheists and agnostics. We don't care about your politics, race, sexuality, or gender. Whether you're a jaded intellectual or a hot catholic schoolgirl, you'll feel right at home in Æ. As marked as 'Casual', we don't engage in roleplaying.

[Vanhania]

The Coalition of Governments

Description: The CoG is an Roleplay centric region set in a consistent, permanently evolving universe that was established in 6/2/2012. A friendly, tightly knit community of role players welcomes anybody who enjoys RPing, from experts to those willing to learn. Largely set on the planet 'Lerodas', in a tech level we are post modern tech, a regularly updated map and complex geo-political history make for a constantly changing environment with plenty of opportunities for RPing - From diplomacy to sports to war. Outside of the RPing environment, the CoG is host to a frequently used free instant messaging room for fellow players and discussing IC/OOC events.. As a roleplay focused region, the CoG stays away from WA related issues as well as the Raider/Defender side of the game.

Government: Benevolent Admin-tatorship. The CoG is run a set of three (permanent) admins, long time residents known and trusted to uphold the values of the community as a whole, and establish changes to lore, tech, etc, while ensuring the community continues to run smoothly. The Admins' decision on topics is final, but they often take votes and suggestions from their fellow active Roleplayers.

[Sichuan Pepper]

Have you considered adding acronyms for each region? (where it is used of course)
A lot of regions with longer names are often referred to in threads with an acronym and I imagine it would be helpful if there was a list somewhere for anyone not familiar. This seems a good place to add those while adding regions.

[Tancerlo]

Added Alliance of Protestant Nations, Atheist Empire, and Sicarius.

Vanhania, that description is really bordering on a bit large. Could you perhaps summarise a bit more and shorten it by a line or two?

Wordy, good idea, I'll be glad to add them. Any in particular you had in mind? I've edit in a few obvious ones.

Edit: Also thinking about changing the format slightly to this:

Region Name (acronym)
(region) (forum) (etc)
Descriptions

So the helpful links are beneath the name and don't get confused with the acronym.

[Vanhania]

I shortened it up a bit, if I need to shorten it even more I will be happy to do so. I apologize for the initial issue.

[Vermandois]

Edit: Also thinking about changing the format slightly to this:

Region Name (acronym)
(region) (forum) (etc)
Descriptions

So the helpful links are beneath the name and don't get confused with the acronym.

Sounds sweet, Sovereign Charter could be SC, as we already use the acronym much.

Anti Authoritarian Alliance (A3)

(Region) (Military)

Description: The A3 is a pan-libertarian, primarily anarchist, region. We are open to any forms of libertarianism or anarchism, and are a pretty active raider region. We stand against authoritarian socialism, fascism and conservatism everywhere in NS. We have a democratically elected WA delegate, and are open to embassies with any regions not deemed authoritarian.

[New Kvenland]

Also, description for Atlas:

"Welcome to Atlas. Here we accept all nations, regardless of political leanings. With an established map, we provide members with a suitable ground for RPs. Our region is a realist, modern-day, earth-based (but different geography) - accordingly we use modern weapons. Please sign-up in the official sign up thread!"
