Hello. I'm Plana Genista. I'm from Southern Ireland, and I am 16. I want to be a Journalist. Some of my hobbies are reading, writing, history, international news and politics. I love the Harry Potter Novels, War and Peace, Sherlock Holmes, and Nausea (by Jean-Paul Sartre). I also am quite an environmentalist. I support community-based economics. I, for several years, viewed Stalin and Mao Tse-Tung as a hero, and was an "Orthodox Stalinist" though I now regret ever liking the ideologies associated with him. I am also a pacifist, I do not support nor involve myself in any physical conflicts.

I also like porn, hentai, and Fantasy RPG's. especially D&D (got hooked into it cuz of Neverwinter Nights and Baldur's Gate), Warhammer 40k is cool too. I like nazi SS uniforms (not so much the swastika, but the uniforms they wore are sexy as shit) and other military paraphernalia from WW2 and up. I dress like an emo kid IRL. Uhh, that's about it. There is more to me ofcourse, but this is all i feel like typing ATM, lol.

Hello, I'm Rosaquinista!
My interests include World (especially completely pointless European) History, for example, did you know that the small country of Liechtenstein does not have it's own military and therefore almost everything including the boarder inspections are done entirely by the Swiss, however, their official language is German? See? Very pointless.

Hello, my name is Freelaannds / Михаил. I was born in Leningrad (or, if you wish "saint petersburg), but moved to Moscow when I was 13. I served in the Soviet Army and fought in Afghanistan twice. I was shot in the leg once while serving in the Army. I still support the USSR, and I am still a communist. I am now a teacher, active member of the CPRF (Communist party of Russian Federation) and I hope to see the Soviet Union return.
About myself: I was born in the Soviet Union and served in military ('64 to '82). I support the USSR, and am an active member of the Communist Party of Russian Federation.

Well I am Cartfartium. Call me Cartfart. Eastern Iowa! FTW! Quite the consevative, but normally don't discuss Conservatism vs. Liberality seriously on NS, because most of the Right Wings on this website are totally incompetent. Enjoy a good read, not too long though. I enjoy funny/actiony show ex: Tosh.0, MLP:FiM, Deadliest Warrior, etc. And by the way Halo is dominant, just throwing that out there. Not a big poster outside of F7. But, meh. That's it, I guess.

Um, well, I guess it's not TOO late to post an intro. My name (on here, anyway) is Saphirasia, more commonly known as Saph. I also go by different names on other games, such as Phoenaea on World of Tanks. I am 18 years old and live in the not so great state of California, in the USA. Some of my hobbies are flying ultralights, skydiving, and generally anything to do with traveling through the air. I am generally a dry humor type of person but I get annoyed a little too easily.

Hi, I'm Pope Ayatollah

Im a yr10 student from Australia and I'd like to say that playing this game is going to be an awesomely new experience for me (I've also been playing other simulations such as Cybernations - bit of a flop but still good - and Erepublik - less of a flop than cybernations). I am an avid reader of literature (that appeals to me that is) and am interested in politics, economics and philosophy - this then is the perfect game to put them to the test, especially when coming up with resolutions for the WA. Mind you, because I am still in school, I'll try my best to get onto this site when I finish my studies.

Postby Southern Babylonia » Wed Aug 10, 2011 8:23 pm

Hey guys! I'm Southern Babylonia.

I'm a guy, I live in Canada, as for political ideology, I say I'm a socialist, some tests call me a socialist, others say I'm a liberal, others say I'm an anarchist, and some say I'm a Communist, but I understand that I'll ultimately be what people call me. I consider myself to be a hippie in most cases, cuz I'm not exactly the one to agree with all of a built-up hippie society, but I get along super well with those who do. In terms of high school stereotypes, I don't like them that much but I'm generally in the Emo/Goth/Normal categories. I am strongly against girly girls and think they are a horrible result of a sexist society, and strangely feminist compared to most other guys, though sometimes I kinda take it to extremes. In terms of hobbies, ummm... NationStates is a hobby, I guess? I also play several strategy games, and I don't mean dumb things like Age of Empires (woops, I just offended half the population of the US,) more in the vein of Hearts of Iron 2 and Europa Universalis 3. And yes, I do play Minecraft cuz it's awesome. I like sports, but I'm not that good at them. I also like writing about teenagers who start revolutions and then start kissing each other. I secretly wish aliens would come and magically take all modern weapons, destroy them and magically replace them with medieval equipment.

Is that enough?

I'm Patrick.

I've been playing NS for a month or so, but I've never actually posted in the forums, partly because I'm active elsewhere and partly because I never really thought about it. So, yeah.

I'm an anarchist, if the flag didn't tip you off. The game's depiction of anarchy is a slight annoyance, but it doesn't particularly impede my gameplay. It's not like that's an uncommon view of what it is, so... *shrug*. I'm also bi, but I don't really make a huge deal out of it. I live near Nashville, TN.

I'm into music (both listening to it and making it), reading (mostly "highbrow" fiction, radical politics, and postmodernist philosophy), writing, film, anime, philosophy, psychology, and self-deprecation.

Musically, I'm sort of all over the place. I have a tendency to only listen to a few bands or artists or composers or whatever for a week or two, then completely switch gears to completely different stuff. I probably have a higher tolerance for dissonance than 99% of the population, although I don't just listen to crazy avant-garde stuff; I just happen to enjoy it.

Hello! My nickname is Tāne, my friends play NationStates and they introduced me to it. I am from Colorado, though you will see I do not use American spelling. I was brought up in a nonreligious nondenominational Christian family, though I now am unreligious (though I wouldn't say an Atheist; but certainly not a Christian). I however love to learn about religions, and there are few religions I do not know the basics about.
I am an Eco-Socialist, and I believe the environment is important and that we need to protect it. I was, for several years a Stalinist though I wish to separate myself far from it.
Right now I love Kolohe Kai and I highly recommend them (they're fantastic, truly)! Other bands/singers I like are Example, Lady Gaga, Paolo Nutini and Adele.
One of my favourite hobbies is reading. Some of my favourite books are Les Miserables (Hugo), Nausea (Sartre), The Idiot (Dostoyevsky), War and Peace (Tolstoy), and Even Silence has an End (Íngrid Betancourt). I recently ordered The Penguin of Death (Monkton) and I am eagerly looking forward to reading it.
I love New Zealand and Maori Culture. I hope to move to New Zealand one day (and I have it planned out!).
And a note on my nickname: Tāne is the nickname my friends gave me (they're Maori). Tāne Mahuta, literally "Lord of the forest" and as I love the forest and nature, they gave me it as a nickname.

I am New Freedomstan (was a wee bit drunk when thinking off a name, I admit). I'm a norwegian from a small-farmer family on one parent's side, and a working class family on the other. Personally, I think I'll study physics... because I'm from the first generation where advanced education has been reachable by the majority. Was technically brought up christian, but only a few in my family gives a shit about religion. Can't really say I was broght up in one particular sect of christianity, as no-one really cared about religion(apart from my father's aunt). Still am christian to some extent, although I don't believe in the Bible.

Musically, I enjoy listening to heavy metal, melodical death metal, folk metal, hard rock, classical music and rap. As for films, I like comedy, horror, action and documentaries. In spare time I am politically active, play video games, surf random places on the internet, read, hunt and work on the farm. I also have a little to much love of liquor, although not excessively so.

Politically, I'm a Marxist-Leninist. I became that when I started checking out the norwegian parties, and realised that the communists were the only ones who are really on the side of the working class and small-farmers. Before that I had supported the Labour Party. I support the USSR (although not blindly) up till Gorbachev.
