Board of Co-OPs: Caltarania the Elder, The Kingdom of Glitter the Festive, Liecthenbourg the Oriental
History always has a few tricks up its frayed sleeve. It's been around a long time.

And tricks it has indeed. History as we know it is long gone. Was gone. Will always have been gone. Never existed, and maybe some day somebody will write about a world like ours.
In this one though, let us say it went differently, leave it at that. And as time moved on history played one card after another. And soon just as a whole is more than just a sum of its part, small changes spread out soon spiraled on and a new world was born, far from our own, and yet not that different.

Now, like every civilized society this RP has rules that you have to abide to. If you do not understand one of the rules, ASK.
The
- Basic stuff
- Thou shalt not go against the rules and regulations of Nationstates.
- I am thy OP and thou shalt listen to my command(ment)s.
- Thou shalt listen to thy Co-OPs, for I placed them in their places for a reason. If thou disagree with them thou shall be able to raise thy issue with me but final is mine word.
- Thou shalt not commit godmod and neither shalt thou META, that person thou shan't be.
- For the IC
- Thou shalt post no post ere thou have finished it, and neither shalt thou reserve places for thy posts ahead of time.
- Thou shall ensure dates exist on all thy posts.
- Thy IC-Posts shall go back no longer than to a week before the previous post's earliest date and no later than a week after its last.
- Thy IC-Posts, even when dealing with diplomacy or negotiation, shall not be shorter than four lines. Should thou wish to have a conversation it is recommended that thou telegram thy partner, jointly-write up the conversation, and one of thou shall post it in thy name.
- Generic Laws
- As I am thy OP, it shall be at my ease to deny, or let my Co-OPs deny in my name, any app should we wish to do so. And the same shall apply to all reservations.
- I shall be free to adjust, add, or remove laws at my leisure.
- If two apps conflict and the applicants do not reach an agreement themselves, then it shall be at the discretion of the OP and the Board to determine a solution, based also on precedence, app quality, and importance of the conflicting area to the respective applicants.
Applications and Reservations:
Reservations that are not performed using the proper form will not be considered valid.
Reservation last for exactly 48 hours from the time they were posted, rather than the time they were confirmed, and an extension of a further 18 hours may be requested. A reservation also is invalid once you have posted a full app for the area in question.
Once a reservation has been confirmed by a (Co-)OP no apps shall be accepted in conflict with the app. Other apps may be made though, and accepted should the reservation expire.
