[TWI ONLY, OOC] backstory

[Randmar]

Who here believes they have a large, Stable, economy?

I am looking for a reserve currency.

[edit]
You can tell if your economy is stable if it focuses on stable markets such as the food industry and a few lower tier industrial process. For instance Alabama has a very stable economy and weathered the recession fairly well in part thanks to the variety of its industry and its focus on steel and agriculture. the tech industry, shipping, and higher tier manufacture such as automobiles are notoriously unstable so the more dependent your economy is on those the more unstable it is.

So my economy is a huge exporter of arms and oil making up a good 75% of the GDP, how's that
5% is steel and 5% is agriculture. 5% is in technology and 10% comes from tourists

Arms are a fairly average in terms of stability but oil is a very stable market so long as the modern world is reliant on it, what is the exact partition of that 75% between arms and oil.

[Polar Svalbard]

5% tourists not ten and the amount is 60% oil and 20% guns

[Randmar]

Sval, I noticed your new article on pirates would you like to do an RP involving your navy face off against some pirates from Randmar?

Yeah, that wold be cool.

[Hauschheim]

My nation is 80 years old. Jagellionian culture is mainly a mix of Polish with a little bit of Lithuanian and Japanese. Jagellion is seeking a friendly rivalry with The Lithuanian Commonwealth. I am seeking a bad rivalry with a nation that is communist, (maybe kangir, i think they are communist). I am seeking an alliance with New Dragleic, although they havent been that active lately. I would like to be a powerful economically, (especially in cars) since my nation is small and i have no chance of being a military power. idk if this is long enough

My nation is 97 years old. Heimen culture german mixed with russian. Hauschheim seeks a rivalry with a capitalist nation. Hauschheim seeks an alliance with segentova. Hauschheim wishes to be powerful in military and wants to dominate the world.

[Kefira]

Kefira is 50 years old, founded by explorers fleeing persecution. The nation is a republic headed by Queen Shira Jade. Kefirianis heavily invest in education, health, social welfare, and international issues. Has a generally cold climate. Seeking alliance with Tuernia, Jagellion, and Svalbard and Vancouvia. has an alliance w Dashgrinaar

I dont know about that, keep it realistic

[Mubaru]

The Kingdom of Mubaru is an old and traditional nation. It is governed by a King and his chosen cabinet members of the House of Commons, the Legislative body of the House of Commons, and the Papal District that provides religious guidance to political matters. Mubaru has a population of around 19,583,239 citizens, of which 20% are practicing Catholics, 5% are Lutheran, 5% are Atheist, and 70% are Islamic. There are five Royal Families that control most of the Industry in Mubaru, including the Rare Earth Mining Corporation of Mubaru, and has many different assets in the Ship Building and Breaking Industry. The five Royal Families hold a large political influence on the King and his cabinet, and in turn are heavily influenced by the Papal District and the Religious Head of the Papacy.

The Kingdom of Mubaru is recovering from a militaristic coup around 15 years ago against the Kingdom and his Cabinet, lead by an Islamic Extremist Organization called "The Brotherhood of Mubaru". The Kingdom and the Royal Army crushed the rebellion and executed the main military leaders of the Brotherhood. This has since lead to 'bad blood' between Catholic and Islamic citizens, and has divided the population even more. The Islamic citizens are seen as second class, and make up most of the lower class, and lower middle class citizens. Wealth distribution is a large problem in Mubaru, as the Royal Families, the Government, and a few high class Catholic citizens control most of the corporations in the country. Catholic businesses and families are given tax breaks, and an large amount of barriers to entry have been placed to prevent common Islamic families from owning businesses. An Islamic Family can earn benefits however, by joining the Royal Navy or Royal National Guard.

Mubaru is a nation that prides itself in it's Navy. It has a powerful fleet, and uses it to control mainly it's waters, and monitor international waters.

The Kingdom of Mubaru is separated by 14 districts, and a 15th district that operates semi-autonomously and is officially named, "The Papal District" or "The Papacy". The Papal District is governed by the King and the Religious Head of the Papacy, and is not subject to the laws of the rest of the kingdom. The Papacy is allowed to have it's own self controlled military, and has relaxed taxes from the Kingdom.

The other 14 districts are each represented in the House of Commons, where the diplomats vote on new laws and legislation. The House of Commons also serves as a budget committee and a judicial system. The King handpicks his Cabinet members from these legislators, and at any time, the King can demote a legislator from the House of Commons for good reason.

The borders of The Kingdom of Mubaru is closed to all non Catholics and only allows a few Muslims enter per year. Priority entrance is usually given to Muslims who have family in the country, or are traveling on business.

[Shancion]

The first European settlers to arrive at the island the nowadays form Shiacion in 1751 and were Romani people escaping for persecution in Spain. The island grew quickly and it’s economy got very strong, based on transatlantic commerce between colonies and European powers. But the slavery abolishment and the development of boats that worked with coal engine caused great crisis in economy, and the country´s GDP would only start to increase again about 90 years after it.

Nowadays the country is a big cultural center. The population is originated from the most diverse places and cultures, with a major immigration from minorities running from persecutions in their own homelands. About 40% of the population recognize themselves as, at least, part Jewish or part Romani, being 21% a mixture of both.

The government is a great protector of the civil rights and freedom, but it doesn’t have a good relation with the environment. The economic production is focused on industry, especially high-technology, biotchnology uranium and oil refining, and uranium extraction.

The government largely believes in diplomacy and desires having embassies in as many countries as possible. It’s very open to alliances, having the aspiration to be allied with any country that protects the rights and freedoms of it’s citizens. Is of our interests having strong trade routes with countries that extract ores and oil or that produce great quantity of food for export.

[Stoizzle]

Well I saw the word 'Heimen" on somebody's and had a good laugh. No offence. Anyways..

Stoizzle is a small nation in the far North West of the region. A small military is all that protects it and relies more on a large governing body with diplomatic power to solve conflicts. Seeking alliances with anyone. I would like to have a powerful economy and citizens happy. The chief exporter of coffee (and tires because everyone else sells cars). Stoizzle has a large population of Bulgarians having originally a King named Stoicoff. During the 90s the country changed names from The Republic of Stoicoff to a more "in the now" rap-based name and thus, Stoizzle is born.

I want to make a name for myself and plan on running for V.P. Trying to get more into RP but know I will catch on so just bare with me.

[Alantania]

My nation, Alantania is an economically and politically stable nation. The nation relies heavily on its crops for money with Agriculture accounting for 45.9% of their GDP. Other sectors include Mining(31.7%), Manufacturing(12.3%),Retail(7.3%) and lastly Tourism(2.8%). The nation, located in the West Ocean has a tropical climate and relies on Monsoon rains (May-October)for it's agricultural practices. The nation has a beautiful environment with plenty of biodiversity and is mostly forested in the west and central regions. The nation has no official religion but has a mostly Protestant population. The most prominent religions practiced in the nation are Protestant, Islam, and Buddhism.
The nation itself is relatively young, officially recognized 15 years ago. The nation used to be three seperate nations with Malasu to the East, Sinon to the North and Indaq to the South. This nation has been in the middle of a horrible war caused by the expansion and militarization of Malasu, leading to a war between Indaq and Sinon(was wiped out in the early years of the war). The war spanned 13 years and left many homeless and led to the nation's worst years yet.
The Eastern and Southern regions are perfect for agriculture. The North and NE host the nations mining and manufacturing centers. Also located in the area are two of the three mega cities(Arebor-North, Whimsdale-South, Otanmir-NE) in the nation. The federal government is currently residing in the nation's Capitol(Arebor,the larger of the three mega cities) located in the northern mountains overlooking the lake basin. Much of the NW,W,SW and Central regions of the nation are untouched forest area. Open to allies.

You'd be pleased to know that we are seeking an alliance as well. We hope for a political-economic (similar to the Warsaw pact or the EU) but we would like the economic sector to focus on cooperation. I suggest we could arrange a meeting while we're on the regional conferrence. I'll invite all nations who considder themselves socialistn but i'm prioritizing. Appelistan, Hauscheim, Jagellion, Dibeg and Dansawae.

[Polar Svalbard]

I want to set up military bases

[Eiralis]

Apologies for being late to the party as I am. As previously stated, unexpected events in real life have put me on hold a bit.

Eiralis's new government is actually only about a year old, after their civil war and the overthrowing of the old leader. After they finish rebuilding, they have sworn to fight oppression wherever it exists in the world, with the unorthodox strategy of nonlethality wherever possible, instead bringing enemies of rights and liberty to justice in court and prison. While their own economy is still very much recovering, they seek to aid the development of other promising countries, provided that they prove democratic and compassionate to their people. They publicly speak and hold political rallies against offenses to human dignity overseas; if it grows too much, they will intervene if the nation can be handled by the current military, which uses stealth operations and surprise tactics to apprehend criminals internationally, a controversial practice.

[Vancouvia]

Now that I have my foreign affairs dispatch (http://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=423310) I'd like to start having Vancouvia have more allies/trade partners so I'm just stating this as my intent if you're interested

[The United Merchants Coalition]

And you thought you were late Eiralis.

The United Merchant's Coalition is an island in the West ruled by 7 super corporations. Each corporation controls a part of life in the UMC. An example: Evergreen Enterprises controls food and water distribution in the country, while The Helios Power Corporation controls all electricity production and distribution. The corporate state has only existed for about 31 years, while the island itself was actually discovered in 1823 and was a British colony until 1944. Being led by Blake Draythys, CEO of Draythys Industries and current Chancellor, will try to gain profit in almost every situation and will agree on a trade deal if he finds one. The Chancellor is chosen by the 7 corporations until that Chancellor is dead. The Chancellor has control over all the territory and the armed forces of the island. However, the corporations still control their respective industry. The government is secular and pushes the citizens to worship any religions they want. The UMC views communist and socialist nations with distrust and disgust, since they strongly believe in the idea of global free trade. Citizens in the UMC enjoy plenty of rights, but not so much political freedom. The UMC also has a thriving economy that is rising steadily. Main industries include crude oil, precious metals, and arms manufacturing.

The island has a mix of cultures from around the world, since the 7 corporations came from different areas. Example: Jaegar Transportation Agency is from Germany and the Zhang Health Corporation is from China.

The UMC does not have an army, rather a small defense force. Instead, almost all military funding is put into the navy, airforce, and espionage. Because of this, the UMC will never try to invade a country by land, but instead try to "persuade" them to surrender by bombings from the outside and more "persuasion" from the inside.

I want to form a trade pact with Alantania, if they want to, and possibly an alliance in them. Also possibly looking for a trade pact with Cottoria.

So we both do oil, and arms manufacturing

[Democratic Socialist Republic Segentova]

To claitify why my nation has such a strange aesthetic to many things is that after WW2 the people didn't moove on from the design-elements and styles from the interwar-period. I tought it would provide some refreshment to RPs

So we both do oil, and arms manufacturing

Yes we do oil, but it is a smaller industry, but the oil fields are starting to run dry. Our biggest industry is arms manufacturing, with the aircraft industry making a new rise.

Mine is mainly Oil, I have large fields of oil that wont dry up for decades, my arms industry is pretty big

[Randmar]

This is great most of us have been introduced and have a general idea of our other roleplayers now lets get down to business of establishing some back story,

On my front, mine and Vancou's nations have been established as economic rivals seeking market domination so that gives me my main opponent as otherwise Randmar is not very militantly aggressive.

---

I would like to propose that we establish a large Central Island railway that runs from The Lithuanian Commonwealth, through Randmar , up to Hauschheim or Cassopeia, and finally up into Democratic Socialist Republic Segentova that could have been built around in the 1990s. We can then set its expansion into Mubaru and Nights Edge around now or back in 2005 if those nations want to participate.

We can change this up depending on who wants to participate but it is a suggestion and something to add a bit of character to the region.

---

Back to my own country and its backstory I am still seeking a foreign currency to establish as my reserve currency, the only requirements are that your economy is stable. You can easily tell by looking at what sort of industries you have in your nation, if you are to focused on one industry, or you are in a volatile area.

My own currency is also open to be made a reserve currency for up to two other nations, the Randmar Economy focuses on several low risk sectors such as steel production, chemical synthesis, construction supplies and farming.

well, the idea of the railway is good and i agree we should establish it! (no but's) Also i'd like to add that the Segentovain economy focuses Mainly on Agriculture (Beef based, Wine, grapes, tomatoes etc.) traditional mediteranian foods (as Segentova's main body is located in Europe) the second-largest part is tourism, followed by arms manufacturing and car-production.

[Inciner]

The Holy Empire of Inciner was founded half a century ago by the members of a novel religious movement, in an attempt to escape persecution. Followers from all over the world got together and claimed a set of inhabited islands, in order to have a place to call home. The result is a small but developing, independent and sovereign state.

Culturally, it presents a blend of contemporary Western culture with heavy Mesoamerican and Andean influences. Megalithic stone temples and monuments contrast with modern infrastructure and industry.

Spirituality permeates most aspects of Incinerate’s lives. The central symbol of their belief is fire; engravings of flames decorate almost every corner. Their religion values effort and self-sacrifice above all things; followers tend to be energic, dedicated and hard-working people. Most of the time, Incinerates are tolerant with other religions and beliefs.

Inciner’s government is mostly independent from the religious institution. The head of state is elected by the population every five years, with no opportunity of immediate reelection, and shares the power with ministers; experts in different areas, such as economy, health and military. Inciner presents a mixed economy; while the private sector functions as the motor that drives the nation’s economy, the government guarantees access to education and healthcare.

The current objective of the Holy Empire of Inciner is to position itself in the international scene as an economically solid, technologically advanced nation with a focus on spirituality.
