Fun fact: 9/11 is now a historical event taught in history class.

I was approximately 8-10 months old at the time... too young to clearly remember. My earliest memories are some faint memories of reading (I learned how to read before I learned how to speak.), but my clearest memory is having my tonsils taken out when I was two years old. If I can recall, shortly afterwards I went into a playroom at the hospital meant for the small children. The room was a salmonish color, with vertical stripes on the walls. In the corner of the room was a television playing Blues Clues. I copiously vomited, and then I fell to sleep.

My NS stats are not indicative of my OOC views. NS stats are meant to be rather silly. My OOC political and ideological inspirations are as such:
The Republic, by Plato | Leviathan, by Thomas Hobbes | The Confucian civil service system of imperial China | The "Golden Liberty" elective
monarchy system of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth | The corporatist/technocratic philosophy of Henri de Saint-Simon | The communitarian
ideological framework of the Singaporean People's Action Party | "New Deal"-style societal regimentation | Kantian/Mohist/Stoic philosophy

What?

My history class would never have touched on 9/11. I think I remember textbooks having a paragraph or two total on the event - only because the textbooks were published in 2004.

If NationStates is around for nine more years and I still have no life, then Kannap will be old enough to have a nation on the site.

One of my favorite authors, Richard Adams, passed away. I feel so bereft. Yeah, exaggerated, but still. His books made an impression on me, "Watership Down" was one of my English teachers. Such a classic.

Dear George R. R. Martin,

After seeing what you've done with 2016, we've come to a highly important decision. There is no way in hell we're letting you write the script for 2017. Please turn over all such work so we may salt and burn it.

Sincerely,
Everyone

The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

The most fundamental problem of politics is not the control of wickedness but the limitation of righteousness.

Already there for mine:

Ewes generally reach sexual maturity at six to eight months old, and rams generally at four to six months.
