Our capital is Alphonseville.

In English it's pronounced al-fonss-VEEL.

In Ducklish it's pronounced KWAK!. In the highland dialect of Ducklish - sometimes known as the "hillbilly dialect" - it's pronounced wek.

The Novaya Russian people pronounce their capital city, Moscow as follows:
['Mɒskəʊ]

Image
-= The Dominion of Novaya Russia =-

The NationStates version of Novaya Russia is based on a fictional state in Sierra's strategy game "Empire Earth".
The invasion into China in 2092 failed after the Chinese forces destroyed the Novaya Russian leader, Grigor II.
The high-ranking Marshall Katerina Verochka assumed command of Novaya Russia to avoid a power vacuum.
The newly-elected Chancellor Katerina Verochka transformed Novaya Russia into a liberal democratic state.

Citate Di Ravello
CEE-TOT-TAY DEE REE-VELLO
"The simplest rule about authority is to obey it! If you obey a ruler well, favor and promotion are sure to follow. If you rebel or shame those in authority, punishment and trouble are sure to follow. This is true for all spheres of authority."

—General Sebastiano Di Ravello
