Region of Vasarden [OOC & Sign-Ups] 4.0

Postby Vasarden » Tue Jan 26, 2016 5:52 pm

Vasarden is a region established upon the ideals of realistic and human-only roleplay; held up by its strong OOC community. A spectacular world filled with the amazing sights of gargantuan oceans, snaking rivers, calm lakes, glowing mountain peaks, shining stars, and a plethora of cities, filled with joyful people. Or, if you prefer the hostile paradigm, Vasarden can be a battlefield of opposing armies, duking it out over the lands carved for thousand of years, only to be obliterated in an instant. With the booming noises of distant artillery shattering the peaks which have been gazed upon for so long...

Many will try, and many will fall. There are those who shall stand above their adversaries in glorious victory, and others who are left in the deep hole of loss. This is the way things work, how war and survival operate. There is no such thing as “fair”, when every minute is a battle for your national survival among the competing states of the world. However, one may desire the peaceful solution; a compromise, or the diplomatic way. Resolving differences through treaties signed by the opposing states in order to ensure international tranquility, instead of violently attempting to crush the other.

This is what Vasarden focuses on. The choice is yours, and you shan't be swayed by the desires of alliances or coalitions or other states to act in a way that is uncomfortable for one. Hence why nations' actions in Vasarden-canon roleplays do not have affect outside of the region, and, furthermore, why alliances and the like do not exist in the Vasari sphere. We do not wish to see nations, who, maintain a high-level of creativity and competence, turned away from acting in their chosen way simply because something they're a member of wants them to do it another way or not at all. It is against that nation's sovereignty, both in-character-wise and overall. Vasarden tries to avoid this route, as it corrupts something that makes an RP region special: the ability to stay neutral or isolate themselves entirely from the politics of the alliance atmosphere.

Therefore, it was so established that, in the late nights of the month of January 2016, the nations of District XIV, Cyllea, Insaeldor and Luepola convened, the region of Vasarden was to be rejuvenated in conclusion of this convention; as to achieve the ideals and sentiments laid out and described in the preceding statements. Shortly thereafter, the region was refounded, a constitutional document laid out, and community ready to be constructed. Insofar, Vasarden has made reasonable progression, with the community preparing their respective roleplays, and the establishment of diplomatic relations with previously isolated regions. But now comes forth the time wherein we must open the region to the public, as to further enhance our growth.

"Are you asking for previous experience?"
Yes, we are. If you can link to any previous RP posts it allows us to analyze if your RP is fit for the region. If you have none, offsite or on, then writing up a thorough IC story or something akin to that will be fine.

On another note, your GDP doesn't seem to matchup. Specifically, it doesn't seem to correlate with your population, in that your GDP Per Capita is quite high for a nation with 200 million. Other than that, there isn't much GDP micromanaging.

Yes, we are. If you can link to any previous RP posts it allows us to analyze if your RP is fit for the region. If you have none, offsite or on, then writing up a thorough IC story or something akin to that will be fine.1

On another note, your GDP doesn't seem to matchup. Specifically, it doesn't seem to correlate with your population, in that your GDP Per Capita is quite high for a nation with 200 million. Other than that, there isn't much GDP micromanaging.2

  1. Regrettably, I do not have any substantial off-site examples. Coming from the Blockland Forums community, the art of using more imagination in RPs (rather than using a cookie-cuter method and selecting real-world countries, which is the new standard) was dying off and the community shifted toward a younger and more restrictive demographic, so in time, I ended up as the odd-one-out, often frustrated, trying to manage a demographic that had a hard time trying to understand the game mechanic, and all the while struggling to play as a simple participant. From what I can see, this looks like the kind of gameplay to which I am accustomed.

    Not sure if this is what you're looking for, but the story isn't complete. I plan to continue it as time goes on.
  2. The Gross GDP represented is with a 5.5% unemployment rate. Other than that, VZK has less value than USD, at about 0.73 times the value of the dollar.

Your dispatch looks quite good. Consider that resolved.

As for your economy, it seems realistic. One more question; what is your Human Development Index rating? Like, compare it to a real-life country, for instance.

Other than that, the founders have agreed to accept you. I'll be telegramming you the password momentarily.

Cyl, Luey and I see nothing wrong with you joining and your app looks great. You'll have the green plot as well.

Unfortunately, Insaeldor isn't online right now and we like to make these decisions unanimous. Consider yourself accepted for now but we'll give you the pass when we get word from Insy.

Location on map*: http://i.imgur.com/2vyQe82.png Here are my two proposals. I would foremost request the orange-colored archipelago. If that is not possible (but i think it should be) I would take the brown-colored suggestion north of Luey, which could bring major changes to the canon represented here.

Please be reasonable with plot sizes, and remember that your application may be denied due to the area you choose not being realistic in contrast to the ethnic demographics and background of the area.

This looks good to me (and I'll be discussing it with the other founders when they come online). The orange plot will have to do as your nation is majority-Maltese, and the brown plot is located in the afro-asian area of the ethnic map.

Also - one of the founders noted your population seems quite large for the (orange) plot size.

That's nice, because i wanted the orange plot anyway, and the brown plot was just a backup.
Well, it has quite high population density, yes. To keep the land area the same size there are major problems with urban acclamation, because while the traditional city centers are well-administered and developed, the shack towns that stretch beyond them are much less so. That situation is comparable to Brazil in some ways, and untouched nature only exists on the countless smaller islands. I mean, I can melt the largest islands together if this is too much of a problem.

Ah, I see. That makes a lot of sense. My only other question is your plot's location - Maltese people were "created" because of their closeness to Southern Europeans and Arabs, but your plot isn't too close to the Arab world. Would you mind having your plot moved closer to the Turkish ethnic area, but still be close to the Romance region?

Since only two founders are on right now (Insy and I) we technically can't decide on allowing entrance until everyone has voted, but consider yourself 'accepted' for now.

That would be plausible, yes. I chose the spot I did because I believe someone were very close, and I didn't want to be all alone, but Maltese is such a cool language and regional canon goes above my loneliness, my fears... For you, my child... I will put them aside. If you truly wish to leave the Ruins, I will not stop you. But please... Do not come back. I hope you understand. After all... Someone has to watch over these flowers. ;_;
