No way that's happening.

No way at all, if it did the Pope would go all “Prisoner of the Vatican.”

Looks like a very interesting RP, I'd be interested in joining. Preferably as an Arab/Islamic nation.
On that, I have a few questions before deciding which one though.

I suppose playing Yemen (the Ansarullah side) is complicated due to the Saudi coalition war still raging and the country being heavily divided? I would also be interested in one of the newly independent provinces of Libya, although it isn't entirely clear to me where they stand on a geopolitical level. I would assume Fezzan is the most "Jamahiriya legacy" sort of nation, and Cyrenaica the most pro-Western?

Of course, if any other Arab or Islamic nation would be more needed for the sake of the RP as such, I'd definitely consider it.

Yeah, Houthis would be difficult and probably short-lived since the Saudis began heavier intervention. Your description of Lybia is pretty solid, but Cyrencia is still closer to their neighbors in North Africa than the European Union or United States, so more "western-like" than "Pro-western," but take that as you may.

Every nation on the roster, save for Syria, is open since Syria was reserved not long ago. Saudi Arabia's in a weird situation where if he posts he doesn't have to apply, but since I haven't heard from him in nearly two months, just consider the Saudis open.

Joining as the Saudis would probably be the most appreciated by your comrades in the Arab League, and it probably has the most to do, but really most nations in that region could be compelling.

Indeed, I have to say that several interesting nations could very well be played. There is also Kurdistan, Palestine, Israel could be a good one though you wish to play Arab/Islamic. Algeria is a good one, which puts direct conflict against me, Morocco. There is also Tunis, Iraq could be a good one since they have to deal with losing Kurdish lands. United Arab Emirates might be a good one to play, good economy and would help the Arab League a lot. Especially since we plan on having a Pan-Arab Space Agency to coordinate our efforts. There is also maybe Pakistan, we haven't heard from them for a bit.

So yeah, take your pick.

Indeed it is! You get to face off against India which somehow managed to get itself into the UNSC. So you get an extra difficult time ahead, if you so choose to be Pakistan.

History
The elections of July 2018 were a heavily contested one, with the government led by the Pakistan Muslim Leage (Nawaz), or PML-N, having been under fire for several corruption scandals. After having been dismissed from his position in 2017, former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif was officially accused of corruption and abuse of power, and was banned from running in the upcoming election, being replaced by Shahid Khaqan Abbasi.

The crisis of the PML-N, however, offered little chances for the main opposition parties either. The Pakistan People's Party (PPP) suffered from similar issues of corruption, cronyism and nepotism as well, and was often seen as a "family party" owned by the Bhutto clan. For a while, former cricket player Imran Khan and his Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party seemed to benefit the most of the political chaos, but in June 2018, Khan's possibility to run for office was severely restricted as well due to irregularities in his administration.

Led by the Punjabi Chief Minister, Shehbaz Sharif, the PML-N eventually succeeded in achieving a plurality of the vote in 2018, gaining only around 35% of the popular vote. Allying with a coalition of conservative and neoliberal parties, the PML-N continued to rule much like under Nawaz. However, in March of 2020, the Jammu and Kashmir Crisis with India shifted the Pakistani political landscape significantly.

When India militarised the border with Pakistan in response to Pakistani support for the Hizbul Mujahideen in Kashmir, the Shehbaz Sharif administration attempted to mend the situation as best they could, but to no avail. In fact, what was considered a weak and slow response by Islamabad actually angered many Pakistanis, who believed that the time had come for Pakistan to stand up for its Muslim brethren in occupied Kashmir, especially considering the military crackdowns against Islamic activists that had taken place there since 2016.

The Kashmir issue soon turned to protests, led by militant Barelvi religious organisations and demanding a stronger Pakistani response to India's aggressive moves. The situation could out of hand to such an extent that the Sharif government ordered the military to disperse the mass demonstrations. However, much like he had done during earlier Barelvi protests in 2017, General Qamar Javed Bajwa, Chief of Staff of the Pakistani Armed Forces, refused to heed his direct orders, and instead chose to mediate between the protesters and the government, much to the dismay of the Sharif administration.

Eventually, the government gave in to popular sentiment, and sent General Bajwa to militarise the border and fend off potential Indian attacks. While the conflict itself was avoided, the strong response Bajwa and the Barelvi movement had carried out, increased the already high popularity of the Chief of Staff. By 2021, Qamar Javed Bajwa resigned from his office as commander of the Armed Forces, and joined the Pakistan Muslim League in order to run for office.

The Muslim League, which always was prone to fracturing and infighting, soon formed a new fraction around the popular General, and in early 2022, the Pakistan Muslim League (Renewal), or PML-R was founded, which quickly attracted many supporters from the former PML-N. Running for office on a platform of Islamic values, Pakistani nationalism and social justice, General Qamar Javed Bajwa won the general election of 2022, and was officially sworn in as Prime Minister in July of that year.

* PVV is too small of a party to be a leading one, the VVD, D66, or CDA are the only ones large enough that I could see taking lead and even then they're all part of the same coalition.
* Your legislature is about 57% Pro-European parties, 34% Eurosceptic which most are only soft Eurosceptic, and 9% Neutral so I honestly don't see this huge resurgence of Eurosceptic policy.
* Don't usually comment on private goals, but since it affects me I will directly, the Dutch can't really compete influentially nor do they have reason to, especially with the VVD and friends with a solid grip on the government
* The Dutch are the most in favor of how the EU handled the refugee crisis (which is still a minority in the nation, but they're still the most in favor, which gets my point across); and regardless, Europe hasn't been taking in refugees since mid 2018 in this roleplay.
* The Dutch are one of the most Pro-European nations in the EU, they have consistently had some of the lowest Euro-exit numbers and were the single nation to say that they didn't even want a referendum on it, and were polled to have about the same favorability ratio as Sweden, along with them having one of the quickest rising Pro-European movements and being one of the few nations which said they would favor the European Union handling trade deals over their own government
* Also looks like you have the most pro-German government in the EU

That's why I was trying to give you options when you were talking about switching, because there's a handful of nations that a Eurosceptic player would despise playing as because their policies directly clash with the nation in question, and the Netherlands is one of those.
