How do I clarify my people are goblins

My nation state is supposed to be composed of goblins. Goblins with jobs. Joblins. How do I clarify they are goblins on my nation page??? Thank you! :clap:

The main options I can think of are changing the demonym to goblin, or creating a factbook explaining it.
This nation exists for fun and insanity, not to represent my actual views which are much more mundane and boring.
Also, I don't use NS stats. So please ignore them.

You will unlock the demonym function later on in your nation. For now you have to stick with the regular demonym.

have you read r.a.lafferty's "reefs of earth"?

"the were a peculiar lot. they passed as humans, but anyone who knew them well, could spot the flickering of the ears, the green gleam in their eyes."

mmmm, then again, i don't know if that's what you had in mind.
truth isn't what i say. isn't what you say. isn't what anybody says. truth is what is there, when no one is saying anything.

"economic freedom" is "the cake"

You can change your demonym by going straight to Settings. There you can specify the noun, the adjective and the plural.

EDIT: When picking customisable fields you should ensure that any demonym you choose is not considered a pejorative term or anything else that's rulebreaking (that's completely unofficial, fellow player advice). The rules are here.
