Embassadia Recruitment

[Botschaft von]

Greetings! Do I have your attention? Good. Anyway, Embassadia is a place where nations from all regions can come to freely speak what's on their mind with no interference. Got multiple regions you want to communicate with? Not a problem! Just ask them to build their embassies here and you can chat on one forum, no hassle, and no inconvenience. If you have any questions feel free to message me or anyone else with a regional title.
Before joining read our Constitution and Immigration Policy which can be found here:

(Constitution on next post)

Official Immigration Policy of Embassadia
Any state that decides to move to Embassadia is classified as an Immigrant. Exception(s): States that represent their region and come to Embassadia as an ambassador are granted citizen status. To become a citizen, you must submit an application to the minister of Immigration. Your application should be as formal as possible, but we only need to know what regions you've been in before, your experience with Nationstates, and how long you've been an Immigrant. You must wait a day to apply to become a citizen. Immigrants do not have the right to vote nor partake in public office. This is granted to only Citizens.

As Embassadia is still a work in progress, the Immigration Policy doesn't apply to you and you are granted Citizen status.
If I still haven't convinced you to join Embassadia, I'd like you to know that we have free cake!
If even THAT wasn't enough to convince you, well... sorry for wasting your time.
