No, because it isn't an official warzone.

Considering that that would work well for my region too, consider it done.

What is the requirement to be a Warzone? So many ejected/ ejected and banned in a certain time or an invasion?

Read the FAQ.
What are Warzones?
There are 6 Warzones:
Warzone Africa
Warzone Airspace
Warzone Asia
Warzone Australia
Warzone Europe
Warzone Sandbox
These regions are specifically setup to allow for invasion-style gameplay. The normal influence costs for ejecting and banning nations apply for the WA delegate. However, bans expire with each update, so nations can keep coming back and trying to win the delegacy again. Passwords are also not allowed. These regions are often used as a "practice ground" for invaders and defenders.

What about a Multilingual tag? I'm tempted to put the non-english tag because we have a member that speaks Japanese but she also knows English.

Could tags be organised into sub groups? Like politics, gameplay, world assembly, misc, and so on?

You got it. So you'd have main tags and sub tags. A main tag would be 'Political' and the sub tags would be the political systems: capitalist, anarchist, libertarian, and so on.

It would have potential benefits such as;

- Organisation (will help with lots of tags, finding specific tags quicker, etc)
- General Searching (searching using the main tag 'Roleplay' would list all the regions who used the sub tags from the group too; Political, Sci-Fi, F7, etc)
- Duplication (same tag names could be re-used but in different groups. F7 would belong in both the main tag groups Forum and Roleplay for example)
- Collapsed Menu (if we had a huge tag list in the future you could collapse/expand main tags to see the sub tags in the group)

Three more proposals, in the same vein of all the other technology tags: "Fantasy", "Fantasy Tech", and "Steampunk".

Don't worry. This hasn't become a spamming issue yet and has the potential to be quite useful. Just be sure to double check which tags have been created since the last one. I know that "Fandom" exists now.

# of Embassies won't happen, nor will year of founding (any time soon).

Can someone explain what does the tag "Generalite" mean?


I tried wiki, the one in wiki didn't make sense.

Some sort of LGBT/gay/queer tag would be appreciated. There may not be a lot of us but we're a pretty fabulous minority!

EDIT: Also, where can we go to see the list of all tags (and then click on them to search) other than from this news post?

I can see that being subjective. While some would wear the "Gay" or "Lesbian" tag with pride, others might not want to be "tagged" as such.

There's a tag cloud on the "the world" page. It's next to the "The world contains this much nations" thing.
Uyt naem Zijner Majeſteyt Jozef III, bij de gratie Godts, Koningh der Herrebrugheylanden, Prins van Rheda, Heer van Jozefslandt, enz. enz. enz.
Im Namen Seiner Majeſtät Joſeph III., von Gottes Gnaden König der Herrenbrückinſeln, Prinz von Rheda, Herr von Josephsland etc. etc. etc.
