There hasn't been any discussion of explicitly disallowing people from non-invited regions to attend. Regions that don't receive an invite won't have the ability to present a regional venue, that much has been decided. Thanks for the question - I'll raise it with the other members of the steering committee.

The news service's revival comes with new graphic work. "Videtur," a typeface originally designed for television use in the German Democratic Republic, has replaced Hoefler's "Knockout" for headlines. Videtur is a lighter font with serifs, the angular strokes at the edges of letters, which calls to mind print media. The logo and masthead has also been changed from Knockout to Volker Küster's "Today Sans," a sans-serif typeface highly reminiscent of British signage.

Look forward to hearing from you then! Naturally wouldn't expect a venue, but as one of the people in the PRL who was (and still is) a leftist IRL, I would love to see what is going on with other NS comrades, maybe even find some ways to get involved.

When it won the Spanish-American War in 1898, the US acquired Puerto Rico as a new "possession." The American who led the invasion, Gen. Nelson A. Miles, promised "liberty" to Puerto Ricans. He also promised "prosperity" and "the advantages and blessings of enlightened civilization."
This never occurred. Puerto Rico was stripped of her land and natural resources by US banking syndicates. By 1934, the theft was so extreme that Puerto Ricans organized an island-wide agricultural strike. In response to this strike the Yale-educated Chief of Police, whose father owned the Riggs National Bank, promised that "there will be war to the death against all Puerto Ricans."
It documents the murder of innocent Puerto Ricans; the bombing of Puerto Rican towns; the blackmail of Puerto Rico's governor; the beating, torture and execution of Puerto Rican prisoners; and the hiding of all this information from the American people.

“The Nazi community barely knows
we exist, and when they do make
note of it, it is to ridicule us.”
“Such a cunning plan you contrived.
When all else fails, you resort to smear
campaigns. Bravo.”
“There was always a debate amongst the
citizens of Lazarus over how much the PRL was
a "theme" versus a true application of socialist
ideals to NationStates”
“Lazarus's new blood came from those
already part of the "gameplay elite,"
many of whom already had citizenship
elsewhere and may have been there
largely for the roleplay aspect”

In early 2013, the year of the revolution, Lazarus was the site of a deadlock between two competing imperialist factions (in the real-world, rather than NationStates sense): the New Pacific Order (NPO, of The Pacific) and NS Imperialists, most notably North East Somerset.
