Is it possible to earn every single banner in one Nation?

[Superbunny]

I was scrolling through the banners out of curiosity earlier tonight, and it seems like a lot of them have different requirements with about the same type of theme (like one that you get for extending your lifespan beyond 80 years, and one you get for getting it below 50 years.)

It makes me curious; are there banners that you could be locked out of attaining forever, or could one single Nation collect them all? (Provides that they have to rapidly change policy all the time to get every single banner.)

You could probably do something like that. You'd actually need to go hardcore and not waste any issues. (That's if you want to it the fastest)

Anything is quite possible, but it would be extremely difficult.

Yeah, that’s what I was thinking. Since issues come in random order (and some only appear to certain areas) you’d probably need to cross-reference the issue with some sort of list, and make a perfect path to go through every single title change, every effect change, etc.

It would take a few years, but it sounds like fun.

Sounds like great prestige.

Yeah, imagine being remembered as “the guy who got every NationStates banner”. Sure, most people wouldn’t care, but maybe some people would. Besides, you could remember it forever.

By necessity, it takes at least 10ish.
Custom #5 has a population requirement of 20 billion, and that goes up at around 2b a year.

You need to have been founded in antiquity to get Rock of Ages, IIRC.

Not for all, because this stands in the way:

However, to earn almost all is possible. You just need to get the highest of NSstats, before trying to drop down. Also need to play the game for a long time to get population banners.

The great thing for the population banner is, though, that you just have to wait.

It's the others that are trickier to get in combination.

The hardest choices require the strongest wills.

And with Rock Of Ages, I’ll just move the goalpost here; every unlockable banner in NS

You can hypothetically get all but 1, if you try hard enough. You can start as Liberal Democratic Socialists, then eventually turn into a Corporate Police State. That will not only be a great route, but also a VERY shocking twist.

Isn't that called USA?

[Eurasian Socialist Soviet Republics]

You can always place the last remaining banner in one of the Custom ones. Does that count?

Kind of opposite, really. Started out as a free market republic, Lincoln escalates it into a corporate police state and over decades of deception neoconservatives and socialists advantage themselves with endless war and mass immigration, making promises they'll never be able to keep.
