What question do you want to ask AU?

[Western Theram]

What time period/tech level is your nation at right now?

I’m going by posts and your nation seems to have a conflict going on with China, what is the background behind the beef between you guys and the Chinese?

With a name and flag alluding to a greener way of life are you an ecology or green energy focused nation?

1. Is your sig actually legit or meant to be satirical?
2. What happened to Eastern Theram? Does it exist?
3. What inspired Western Theram?

1- yes. I believe in the things I answer issues to and the general things concerning my nation. I’ll also rephrase normal things like everyone does clinical trials but the way I said it sounds cooler. (Human test subjects for science) aaand maybe a bit of evil fiction

2-There is a mainland known as Theramistan that we broke away from. They are in a faction with the richest CEOs of the planet dedicated to protecting their greed. It still exists and is a main hostility as they are in a cold war with an earth controlled region of the planet. Western theram is one of few independent nations on the planet meaning it’s usually the sight of proxy wars from the two factions.

3-I think the VERY original idea I had for this to be was a socialist minarchy (not monarchy) because it would basically be the only one. I wanted a nation that would stick out. Over time my views shifted a bit and I just started adding custom lore for stuff that I was basically my topic of interest at the time. This resulted in a really weird mash up of cyberpunk and fantasy.

[Republics of the Solar Union]

Since nobody can't access factbooks due to NS failure, I'II ask some questions concerning your posting history instead.

1. When starting a new conflict, does your leader and any of his politicians feel any remorse in the bloodbath to come? If not, how it is not "vividly nonsensical" to these people that they aren't friends of liberty, but instead inhuman tyrants reveling in so-called liberation either of sadism or personal glory.

Some feel remorse, some don't. The nation is split between many many political parties, one of them is definitely a so-called liberation force, cmwhich is the Blue Party which is currently in power. There have been steps to make the bloodbath become less and less, but the millions they're killing is only thousands in comparison to the vast population which is as "free-thinking" as a democratic nation gets.

2. Is the Solar Union a satire of both the late USSR and Bush-era US? Asking since invading nations on the basis of "spreading democracy", Soviet-esque troop level 1.82 trillion army, and a lack of care for the potential devastation these conflicts might bring to your citizens paints quite a grim picture of your "democracy".

It's meant to more go from JFK to the current US, since JFK was the last good president in my opinion, the RSU started with humble beginnings, and had a golden era under the Solar Party and president John D.F which's name is inspired from JFK. And then this vast "empire" was put to the Blue Party which started the current "true democratic" age, with the empire slowly falling apart. Now we are on the edge of this age, the Solar Party is close to winning again, and if the Solar Party wins, maybe the empire can rise again. So it leaves on an optimistic tone. But it may not be exactly what you were thinking, it definitely has parellals.

3. Is this nation meant to aspire to any other higher ideals or beliefs other than the usual cry of "muh freedom?" If not, explain why it is in your citizen's interest to perish in the frequent wars the Solar Union seems to be involved in, how do these wars benefit them at all? What if a citizen decides its "his freedom not to die"?

The citizenry are quite diverse and have a lot of different opinions and ideas, the different factions of the citizenry to say are the majority in each election, but each faction does get time to implement it's views and ideas. Currently the "true democratic" faction is ruling, but there's a growing "returning" faction in favour of the Solar Party and a smaller but possibly significant in the future "reformist" faction which advocates for reforming this flawed system once and for all. The Solar Union is just a USA in space, which isn't stable, and it will fall like the USA, if it doesn't manage it's empire correctly, I mean look back at history, the Dutch, French, British, and America, all of them rose and fall under similar circumstances. We don't know if the RSU will defy the odds or will be another nation in this endless cycle. And I do plan to keep it that way at least for the near future, because it provides an outlet for both optimists and pessimists. I am personally a moderate optimist by the way.

1. Did you have any inspiration for your nation?
2. What caused the uprising against the Emperor, and what was the Emperor like?
3. How has the new government done now that it is in power?

[Saint Freya]

1. Yes, mostly from this forum. Unfortunately, my lawyers forbid me to say anything more on the matter.

2. It turns out that brutalizing your own peoples in order to suck up to western ideals is a surefire way to ensure a rebellious, murderous tendency against you. The Emperor was a spine- less rat, who espoused "constitutionalism and liberalization" despite no one asking for it. Even the western states whom he is trying to impress, don't like him simply due to his ethnicity.

3. Making peace with the nation's history and local cultures, this is crucial since the deposed Emperor wanted to "repent" to the westoids. Our new government has no intentions of doing that and they reversed the liberalization. Introducing protectionism so local industries don't get decimated by cheap foreign goods and reducing reliance on imports from hostile entities.

Why did you make TN? This seems like an inverse Robin Hood, did you read that and think "I should make an opposite of that" or did you just make it because it's funny.

BN: Most of my old stuff except for my Constitution are no longer fully canon so if you have a question about the lore, ask about either my constitution or my recent post on PruCh.

No personal questions pls unless it's "what have you been doing over the past few months?"

[Katipunan K K]

1. How did you come up with your nation's name?
2. Why is your old stuff no longer canon?
3. What have you been doing for the past few days?

Hello, i have some questions about your nation/worldbuilding

1. When will you get a Map of your Alt-His world
2. Exactly what role did the United States play in the history of your nation's history that it did differently in ours
3. Did Portugal ever get Galicia?

1. I used a Fantasy Name Generator, I was too lazy at the time to think of a name but I ofc had to make an IC etymology (justification) for that name so my overview factbook explains that a bit. In short, something to do with cats as the IC founder likes cats.

2. They are still canon at the basic level but there are a lot of inaccuracies that make most of the info not canon. These inaccuracies became inaccurate as a result of the Barbie movie (explanation in my recent PruCh post) and as such, I no longer consider them to be fully canon.

3. I've been trying to get myself to finish a Technical Drawing project but I'm too lazy. Now with NS on, I will be doing the project while waiting for forum replies.

The Organization:

Is there any sort of equipment (that you have thought of) that the Organization uses to control the, for a broad term, entities and keep them from breaking the veil of peace. If so, what are such equipment?

If not, how does the Organization detect any anomalies that might break the veil of peace, do those anomalies tend to reveal themselves beforehand?

We do have equipment to bring operatives to and from realms, such as bifrost drives (essentially wormhole generators that can open wormholes that go between the realms), but those don't necessarily qualify as keeping the veil of peace. we do however have one operative who is able to withstand a substantial amount of psychic attacks and the sorts, the problem is with that one is we don't really have full control over his actions. we have, however, put the son of a very powerful demon into a furby, put that furby into a jar, and laced the top and put it in a salt circle.

As for how we detect the anomalies, we have eyes and ears everywhere (even in your nations)

1. What does Special Instructions and Monitoring mean?
2. Will you ever make a more realistic etymology?

(BN, preferably ask questions about this acc and not my main on here, I am trying to flesh out Lemueria)

[Camtropia]

Why is the pre-title the "United Socialist States of" Lemueira, despite Lemueria having an emperor and being capitalist?

It has currency but it still implements some communist policies and it was a compromise with rebellious communists after the Green Rebellion, which explains the pretitle changing.

1. In Cavirfite customs law, "Special Monitoring and Instructions" are a set of rules that a carrier of restricted goods such as cannabis have to follow when taking their goods into Cavirfi. This usually involves putting restricted goods in a specialised bag and having its weight, hazard level, and chemical properties assessed and labelled on the bag so that when someone decides to carry those restricted goods into Cavirfi. It is not a danger to anyone.

2. I am satisfied with my unrealistic etymology. I have let go of making my nations realistic when I was 15 and I wanna keep it that way.

TN originated as an even more twisted version of the General (Nation: General TM). The “Reverse Robin Hood” was developed after I had made slavery legal and boosted wealth gaps, leading to the formation of TN’s pampering the rich. Some other ideas, like eating people originated after in the “Based of AN’s flag how do they punish traitors” people said TN would eat them.

1. I have no fucking Idea
2. In our alt history, America's Delaware ship was not sunk by Spain, meaning Spain and America never went to war, therefore America never had any involvement in the Phillipines
3. Yes.

[Waisnor]

Why is the pre-title the "United Socialist States of" Lemueira, despite Lemueria having an emperor and being capitalist?

1) Why there is no President in Camtropia?
2) For how long the war of liberation of Camtropia was carried out?

2) For how long the war of liberation of Camtropia was carried out?

1) To avoid concentrating too much power in one individual - the title of Prime Minister reminds its holder that he or she is directly accountable to the Senate, and through them, the people of Camtropia.
2) I need to get around to writing some better lore on this. For now, let's say around 3 years.
