I had a nation of pet rocks, but it was no fun. They didn't do anything. They just sat there in stone silence.

My nation of elder things in a land of impossible geometries dong that which man is not meant to know didn't have any relevant issues (relevant to the elder things) ever come up.

The nation that was a slice of bread trying to escape the kitchen soon got stale.

Human beings and their political interactions, and dealing with the unintended consequences in myriads of ways is pretty fun.


That's Awesome. Wondered where my bread went must have formed a nation and escaped the kitchen. But yeah, I can see how Human nations are very imteresting from a political standpoint. People are really interesting creatures

What about nations that are majority human, but do have nonhuman populations which are actively used in RP? Like me and Olwe.
Yes, all musical references are intentional.

The Rhythm Nation was founded in 1369 and is still around as late as 5000 AD, so I can RP in any tech setting you want. But magic does exist and can be used, and this is non-negotiable.

Aensland is a majority nonhuman nation with Elves, fairies, satyrs etc…. basically all the Fae creatures. There are, however, human, merfolk and pony populations too.

Balazar is a majority-vampire nation, with therianthropes (werewolves, wererats, werebears etc.) second most common in our population. Humans are a very oppressed minority.

As a MT nation, humans dominate PRMP with some animal species such as dogs, cats, rats, insects and wild animals roaming freely in our nation's streets and forests.
Welcome to PRMP! (Indonesian culture, tropical rainforest paradise, free markets, dominant private sector, low taxes and a limited government $$).

I mostly do human, but Fascist Mojave is elves, Sky Citadel is hawk people, Fremenilia is just monitor lizard monsters, and I wont even mention all the Planetwar nonhumans, and Vietstalia is skaven. As a bonus Legions of Settra were humans but now are undead(unlike the nation which I'm sure is dead).
Come out, the WA has passed a resolution. Actions will be taken to bring your nation into compliance.

We are a species of intelligent, magic-using spiders who use silmarils to power our futuristic technology. If this bothers you, don't RP with this nation.

I'd surely like to put fantasy all around as a worldbuilding enthusiast, but major trouble I am thinking that retain me from doing it is how it will reduce the logic and possibilities having My Little Pony, Transformers, and other complete randomness in a single country just because I'd like to have these things.
I could make it a universe like the movie Lego adventure thing like there is places that have different functions and all, but I wouldn't know how to be canon with everyone's else nations in terms of worldwide and international roleplays.
I have infinite creativity and would gladly do that if I was confident enough to do so.

Some people tend to like more realistic roleplay, while others just write what they know.

Same as my other post, I'd gladly organize or participate in a great RP where ourselves, the players, are only states, or cities, or like companies or associations, united in a Region working like a country, but it would cost a lot of time and mostly everyone likes to have their own nations and stuff, so I suppose its rather rare.

Personaly mine mostly ponies with some kirins and a small minority of goo furries. I would imagine most regions are dominated by human states because a lot of people here want realism.

My puppets and I are a region of various demon races, but because physically writing out 12 years of worldbuilding is taking a few eons longer than expected, I haven’t really expounded upon anything. Given, they are mostly humanoid though. That said, when I used to mill around here more often, there were a plethora of My Little Pony and Touhou nations, which suggest ponies and yōkai obviously. No idea if they still hang out here.

Cryptids like Bigfoot, skinwalkers, crawlers, the rake, mothman, wendigos, trolls, fairies, fae etc. all exist in Countesia. Just the government has an entire ministry dedicated to keeping them a secret and away from the populated areas of the nation.

We also have a small population of intelligent rabbits living in our nation parks, as part of a refugee program with a nation of anthropomorphic rabbits.

Anthros are not canon in Countesia barring a few exceptions. We call them furries and bully them.

I've yet to RP with non-fantasy nation of elves, dwarves, ect, but they'd be welcome.

Humans?! Yuck! In Valastiria they are hunted for sport, traded, sold, etc. They're not really tracked all that well. Next to that There are all kinds of strange and notable creatures the Valastirians would choose above humans.

It is dominated by chicken puppets


I feel like Chicken Overlords isn't a legitimate region, since such a tiny fraction of nations in that region are actually active on NS

I'd say this nation is about 85-90% representative to my beliefs. About the only difference between my nation and beliefs is that free markets are effective in a select few situations, and the compulsory organ harvesting is kind of screwed up

What you describe is literally exactly what Olwe is… a nation ruled by a Hogwarts educated Planeswalker and his wife, Legolas Greenleaf’s cousin, with weaponry inspired by the Heretic and Hexen games.
Founded: 2480
Current year: 5001
Magic: Non-negotiable
Ponies: Yes, occasionally
Tech levels incompatible? Then kick me out of the thread, because if you RP with me you accept my tech.
Note: Before 2480, Olwe was called Athan. If you see this word in a thread, it's because you mentioned a year incompatible with Olwe in that thread but still made it open to all techs and therefore are allowing Athan's magic.

We are giant sapient war robots from space, and as our nation name implies, we have destroyed the Autobots. We've also taken over several other planets. The one most notable for you may be Earth.

We do consider ourselves to be people. It's humans and other biologicals who aren't people - they're different species from us, so they're animals as far as we're concerned.

We're also always up to shady things, as the name Decepticons implies. With billions of us currently functioning, there's room for everyone from basic muggers to those who do highly Machiavellian plots.
No war RPs; no open RPs.

Simple. A strange and extraordinary event occurs and makes the world transforms into lego pieces with ponies and robots as people. Or they could join afterwards. Or the femcian could invent them to try to find happiness in the new world they are.
