Over the Rainbow: Dare to Dream

Welcome to Over the Rainbow! Dare to dream...

Region | Discord | Charter




Mission Statement

Over the Rainbow is a gathering place for the NationStates LGBTQ+ community and allies. Whether you're a game player, a generalite, an issues player, a role player, a WAer, or just a player who enjoys casually socializing with friends, all LGBTQ+ players and allies are welcome here, Over the Rainbow.

There are several characteristics that define the governing philosophy of Over the Rainbow. We are:

  • Egalitarian: We insist that everyone is equally worthy of being treated with dignity and respect. Every person has the same worth.
  • Communitarian: We prioritize the needs of the community ahead of individual self-interest. Individuals are respected, but community comes first.
  • Progressive: This region's government will always seek to advance unambiguously progressive values, while the community remains an open platform for debate and discussion between people of all anti-fascist political leanings.
  • Inclusive: We are a welcoming and intersectional community. Any expression of bigotry or exploitation is strictly prohibited.
  • Neutral: We don't care if you're a raider, a defender, if you're in the NPO, or anything in between. We leave that at the door here.
  • Technocratic: Government portfolios are managed by those who know how to manage them, and thus are able to teach others.
  • Meritocratic: Advancement in government is based on contribution to the regional community, not popularity contests.
We have chosen these defining characteristics to ensure Over the Rainbow always remains welcoming to all LGBTQ+ and allied players. These characteristics will be consistently enforced and will never be sacrificed on the altar of liberal ideals. While some of us may cherish liberal ideals in the public square (and some may not), this is a safe space, and we will not allow anyone to feel unsafe or uncomfortable here in the name of any abstract principle.

I was about to accuse Cormac of obviously hiding behind an anonymous puppet, but then I saw he self-identified in the signature :P

I almost forgot the signature and was like, "The first 10 posts will be about me using an anonymous puppet, better use a signature." :P

Thanks for the well wishes!
