Not exactly...though advanced search by author and key word(s) usually helps narrow down search results.

No. You look for posts with a word that you wrote, not the nation's name

Why not start including a 'reference code' -- some combination of numbers & letters that's unlikely to be used for anything else -- as a footnote to all of your new posts, so that you could search for that?
The Confrederated Clans (and other Confrederated Bodys) of the Free Bears of Bears Armed
(includes The Ursine NorthLands) Demonym = Bear[s]; adjective = ‘Urrsish’.
Population = just under 20 million. Economy = only Thriving. Average Life expectancy = c.60 years. If the nation is classified as 'Anarchy' there still is a [strictly limited] national government... and those aren't "biker gangs", they're traditional cross-Clan 'Warrior Societies', generally respected rather than feared.
Author of some GA Resolutions, via Bears Armed Mission; subject of an SC resolution.

Because it will be annoying and out of context, although, it's a good idea in theory

Shouldn't the search still work if it the code is in such teeny-tiny print that it isn't really noticeable?
