The Embassy That Has No Big Banks

This is a thread for our official embassy.

This thread shall serve as a newsletter of the happenings in our region for other regions to be informed. We also shall create a newspaper if anyone is interested in participating in it.

Recent News: We are holding our Presidential election on September 11th, 2016. The candidates running are Bernie Nation of the Democratic Socialist Party and Primera Republica de Cantabria of the Trotskyist Party.

Any representatives from other regions interested in creating formal alliances with TRTHNBB should send me a message and we can start the process,

The Gameplay subforum is not the place from which to run your region. You guys should take this to your regional message board, or an offsite forum. Additionally, there is no thread ownership in Gameplay.

I do believe in the Gameplay description it explicitly says "discussing regional politics," hence, we are discussing regional politics. Also I just fixed the ownership part so that will no longer be an issue

Uh, yeah, it needs to be of international import, not of internal regional politics. Please don't be snide to those of us that are trying to help you and are knowledgeable of this forum, it's actually rather rude.

Hi Yodle! Um,.,Good luck with your elections.
Stop giving misogynistic abusers a platform. Anyone who sides with Tiktok Star Andrew Tate even 1% of what he says will be treated as enemy who should be shamed out of society. Impressions+Views+Videowatches=$. Nothing he says is new or revolutionary. I don't care if he said "some good stuff", it's still bad because: the more you watch him, the more ad revenue MONEY and algorithm BOOSTS you're giving him to traffick victims. And don't say the victim lied, a young man stupidly told me that the victim confessed to lying, I told em to link me proof, articles or the Audio of her confession, he googled and found 0 proof 0 articles, and he realized he was spreading fake rumors he heard and BELIEVED without fact-check. Don't brand victims as liars without GOOGLING. Debated here

Let's get started then! Okay these go to both Bernie Nation and Cantabria. What will you do in your first week in office to further your party's/your views (Most likely through legislation)? What is your stance on R/D and whether we should participate in Defending or go for a more pacifist approach to things? Do you have a contingency plan if something were to happen to this nation (Yodle) and the region was open to raiders once again? Would you be able to work effectively with other members in the regional government under situations that require a lot of coordination with other nations? What is your position on the development of formal alliances with other regions?

That's all I could think of for now! I will publish all the answers later on in a news article to simplify the viewing of it.. When answering try to focus on each one individually and have different paragraphs for different answers. Good luck!

Thanks for the questions, Yodle! Alright, so the answer to the first question coincides with the third for me, so I'll knock those two out at once. My first piece of legislation would be to pass a law allowing me to lockdown the region in case you get CTE'd, leaving us vulnerable to raiding. Currently I have enough influence to not only lock the region, but block the password from being viewed from potentially dangerous eyes. Additionally, my running mate, Ansuriel, has the second highest influence in the region, so you could expel any raiders that get through. My second piece, non-"Founder being CTE'd" piece would be to create a MASSIVE recruiting campaign. Currently we have approximately 50 members, which is nothing to sneeze at, but we had over 150 before the initial raid. Those are the numbers I'd like to see again.

When it comes to raiding and defending I have very strong views on the subject. Raiding is a completely unacceptable and barbaric practice that is done for little more than getting sadistic glee off of the misery and frustration of others. If any nations, including members of my Cabinet, were caught raiding, they would face harsh consequences that may even include an expulsion from the region until they have seen the errors of their ways. Now defending is different and a completely noble act of selflessness that aids those in need. However, sometimes people often use defending as an excuse to raid, as seen by Arulean. So these things need to be monitored and led by someone capable.

Working with the other members of the regional government should be a breeze. I'm open to any new ideas and will always respect those who respect others and treat them with equality. So as long as my Cabinet can act civilized, we should have an easy time together. Additionally, I have plenty of time for Nationstates, since I have my laptop in every class and Discord on my phone. This will make for easy communication.

Lastly, the formation of formal alliances with other regions is something that would greatly improve us. Our allies will make us strong and protect us from any future threat that may loom around the corner. It also provides more people who may want to participate in discussions or move to our region!

Thank you again and I can't wait to hear more questions from all of you!

All safely disposable WMD (Chemical/Bio-/Radiological) will be disposed of immediately and nuclear weapons will have their warhead removed then decontaminated then scrapped and all salvageable nuclear material will be used to fuel nuclear reactors, a regional ban on WMDs will be put in place in the first two weeks of our leadership.

Yes, thank you Yodle, now, I will write for half an hour, yay workaholism.

1: See what is needed and implement legislation to fill those needs, then we go through with our program.

2: Research and Development should be state-subsidized as it is our number one chance out of the fossil trap and into a new era of electric goodness.

3: I will propose cutting military budgets to nationalize several enterprises that have for long enough been selling our jobs to China. We should go for a mixed approach to defense, and I trust you guys to make your own decisions on that.

4: Hopefully that doesn't happen, but we will instead get the endorsements of our nation up to maximum capacity so that we have a fortified defense, although we should keep our presidential/WA delegate switches secret so as to not get immediately raided.

5: Hopefully we can all come to an understanding, and hopefully we're not too extreme for that.

6: We will develop formal alliances with other regions as long as they're strictly for trade or such, as a military alliance wouldn't be too favorable if we're to cut military budgets.

Well, that was fun and my workaholism just died a little bit yay!
Anyways, thank you,

You're still running your internal affairs (elections) here. You've been told already that's not allowed. Final warning - take that to your RMB/offsite forum, or the thread is locked.
