"Sometimes you have to pick the gun up to put the gun down."
-Malcolm X

The world's foremost industrial powerhouse, the nation of Scorm, is undergoing some of the worst political turmoil in several decades. As the nation's notoriously far-right political groups begin to organize, Minister Gorbachev has been assassinated. Many independent investigations have named the nationalist groups as guilty, the new executive, Bismarck remains tight lipped on the issue. With every passing day, Bismarck becomes increasingly accepting and occasionally supportive of the nearly fascist agendas that his people desire. In an even more startling development, an anti-government group of radicals has carried out attacks all over the nation. As Scorm teeters on the verge of martial law and political extremism, the world watches. Weapons drawn, eyes open.

Events

"Ajiba" attacks - in Scorm

Scormian-Wansullian Summit - in neutral waters

Looks like you only filled out the first half of the application. Since you are the central nation of the RP's plot, you are accepted. Just make sure to fill out the rest when you get a chance.

I'm happy to have been accepted and I'm excited to start this RP. For the latter reason, do you think we could get a bit more info on it? For example, why the Ajiba attacked Gorbachev? And the state of the Scormian infrastructure.

by **Treneria** » Sat Dec 02, 2017 10:49 pm

Nation name: Treneria.
Population: 700,625,000.
Active Military: ~10.25 million.
Military Reserves: ~1.05 million.
Head of State: Michael Tenner.
Head of Government: Michael Tenner.
Legislative Body: House of Common Representatives
Judicial Body: Supreme Judicial Court.
Capitol City: Treneria City.
Ideology: Hard-nosed Republican conservatives. Liberals are the minority.
Popular Opinion of Government:(8.5) Depending on whom is asked and what region of the nation they're from. Whilst the majority of the country is happy with the current state of affairs, there are separatists that believe they would be better without the current reign. Likewise, small political factions that disagree with the New Republican Party (NRP)'s methodology are constantly campaigning to garter support for their own causes, much to no avail. In certain regions (namely, the mountainous north-west), this has contributed to the formation of militias and gangs that often skirmish with local authorities.

Regardless, they still remain the minority; over ninety-percent of the Trenerian population praised the current state in recent polls.
Governmental Stability:(10) The current party retains a strong grasp on the state. With all major positions held by the NRP, they run little risk of being overtaken.
Economic Stability:(10) Treneria is currently an industrial and agricultural powerhouse, with booming sustainability.
Currency: Dollars.
Approx. Currency value compared to 1 USD: 1 TSD = 1.20 USD

Population: 82.67 million
Active Military: 826,700
Military Reserves: 2,480,100
Head of State: N/A
Head of Government: Thutherx Volvi
Legislative Body: Wansulian Senate Of The State
Judicial Body: Wansul Judical Department
Capitol City: Trexin
Ideology: Social Party, aligned in Liberal Alliance with the Unionists's Party
Popular Opinion of Government: 8
The libertarians and social liberals are good with the civil, political and economic freedoms, while economic freedom is a bit lower so the communists/technocrats liking the more democratic socialist parts. The most unsatified groups are the Right Alliance, making up the small conservative, reactionary, and Facist groups being willing to become foreign volunteers for Bismarcks government, with many getting ready to cross the border into Scorm.
Governmental Stability: 8
The aformentioned small amount of right wingers but dominant libertarian liberal control has lead to not big shifts in politics recently. Scientific projevys make big news, and Wansul could take in a lot mor poeple, but we don't have a super high number, so a high SOl is common throughout
Economic Stability: 8
Having enough people in the country means that immigration is welcome, and jobs are easier to find. Large oil reserves in the north give us some chips in the world market, although we will not be wanting to drill them up, for environmental reasons. The huge tourism industry means that poeple from all over the world come here, making other countries have citizens in us, which are spending money.
Currency: Wexililes
National Anthem: None
Approx. Currency value compared to 1 USD: .5

I was under the impression that this would be open, not just a regional RP. As far as I, the OP, am concerned, you are accepted.

Beyond that, where would you like your claim on the map to be?

That largely is up to Scorm himself. I more or less summarized two RMB posts he made as the description in the OP. If you want more information, you'd have to ask him.

They're left wing extremists. And they hated Gorbuchevs policies. As you may know, both Gorbuchev and Bismarck are right wing conservatives.

Just curious, but why do you condemn conservatism and capitalism (seeing as I am both).
Just curious. I am conservative, but as I say, don't hate on conservatives. We're humans too.

This really isn't the place to bring that up. If you want to talk about politics, go to a designated thread.
