You either need to be the founder or be given a title that allows you to do so.

Assuming you have border control power, a very large amount. The exact amount increases based on how many nations are in a region.
It is twice as much to do an invisible password than one visible to people in the region, and it is twice as much to do it as an RO than as WAD

The base amount is either 400 or 440 spdr, with less then 10 nations. After that each nation increases the amount by 40 spdr, so if you had say 15 nations it would cost 600 spdr with an increase of 200 spdr due to an additional 5 nations. Its funny how it works.

Depends on how many people are in your region, and if you have the authority to do that. If you are a founder, or if a founder gives you border control powers then you will be able to. Now if you have around 20 nations in your region it could take around 700 influence to password protect it. This cost increases the more nations you have.

I don't think the population of the nations is a factor, though I could be wrong on that. :blush:

The moral of this story (as more than a few others) is: Encourage your founders to behave onsite so your region doesn't end up founderless. :p

As an addendum, encourage your founders to behave on ALL of their nations. A well-behaved founder nation won't count for much if they act up on puppet nations and end up getting puppetswept!

Think faster. I don't know if we actually require that many more updates. You seem to have a hard choice with these two regions, maybe a coin toss can decide it.

You really shouldn’t let your fucking massive ego get such a hold of you. If you’re that desperate to prove the Pacific is some big tough region, you’ve got problems.

What exactly does your regions big head compensate for?

Woah, woah, woah, calm down. JW didn't do anything from you, and now you had to go up against their comment..? I don't know what the accusation is between you and JW, but it's pretty much rude and obscene once you try to reply such a hateful comment like this.

Dat list of embassy closures <3

Countless of regions, including my beloved home the South Pacific, have been significantly bothered in one way or another by this region. That this happened was not just inevitable, but also well-deserved.

A job well done by the Legio. Hail Pacifica o/

You antagonized more than one Pacific, and we all have long memories. :p Silly, spammy userites.

Also, your delegate voted against the current SC proposal. Supporting fascists is a no-no.
