What question do you want to ask AU?

[Aerlanica]

Due to the alternate nature of the North American Continent in your world, as well as looking at places such as Germany, the Australasian Federation and the Russian Empire. Who won the world wars, if any, and who is the main rival to Kynor?

Regarding the map well since I'm reworking my nation most of the concepts of those states had been scrapped and the map in general is outdated. Originally our main rival would've been Australasia but that is now scrapped. For now to Kynor's hyperpower status in my lore it doesn't have any rivals yet, though as I develop my lore further this could change. I foresee rivals to Kynor being the Francophone states who have grown to dominate after Britain's defeat in the Seven Year's War. I also foresee a united Germany being a rival too in the future. /skip

Interesting history and backstory behind YN. What year, or years does the empire exist in? Also, what kind of culture is it? What is its tech level? What is their relationship with the Native American population?

What was the idea behind your nation's name? Was it really the Latin translation as stated in your Factbook under Etymology, or do you have a different reason for choosing this particular name?

[Gandoor]

I am once again asking you who is on ooc flag

Gauche Le Mede, she's a villain from the series Lupinranger vs Patranger responsible for making the monsters of the week grow giant after being defeated by the heroes of the show (Lupinranger vs Patranger being an entry in the Super Sentai series, best known in the West as the source for the footage in Power Rangers, so of course having giant monsters is a necessity in one of these shows). She's also basically a mad scientist who performs needless surgeries on humans and even her allies entirely for 'fun'.

I also have literally no idea why Gauche's character design, which is specifically stated to be a fusion of 'Oviraptor and machine gun' (seriously), includes red high heels, only reason I can think of is 'we gotta make sure people know this villain is female', as if her voice actress, 'nail polish', and 'breasts' wouldn't be enough?

You have no factbooks yet, and I see your nation is quite new. What are your plans for it?

[Aerlanica]

Is the Monolith the only, well, "Monolith" (for lack of a better term) left in the world or is this just Propaganda?

I wrote that there are nations that responded differently to the whole reality breaking nuclear apocalypse with magic thing differently than Soviet Progonya, so I think there will be other human groups. I'm not sure what form they will take. The stories will mainly focus on Soviet Progonya, but I might use the idea of them interacting with outsiders. Also it's possible that the citizens of Soviet Progonya will be made to think they are the only humans left, but I'm not sure about that yet.

I'm sorry to ask such a boring question, but... do you intend to participate in leader interaction threads and stuff on F7, or to make a factbook for Demi? As it is the WA Rep factbook looks really nice, but it seems a bit of a nonconventional choice to focus on the WA rep rather than the leader, at least to me. Not bad, of course, Baizou does the whole "face of the nation is a diplomat" thing very well (like evt. else), but still nonconventional.

Howdy!

You mention in your signature that you welcome Telegrams with questions about Islam. Do you often get questions, or is it rare? What kind of questions do you like to answer? What's something you think a lot of people don't know that you'd like to tell them?

Being raised in North Carolina, what do you think of the state? What's something you think a lot of people don't know that you'd like to tell them?

Thanks!

Hm...
Well, I get them on an intermittent basis (lately, it’s starting to lean more towards atheists telling me I’m a cult following moron and Christians telling me I’m a Jesus-hating devil lover who needs saving.) I like to answer questions about the meaning of verses that are often misinterpreted. I think a lot of people don’t realize women and men are equal in Islam, that forced marriages are Islamically forbidden, and that Muslim countries didn’t really start executing or imprisoning apostates, blasphemers and gay people until the British came (of course the British are the ones who screwed everything up.)

I like North Carolina, but weather can be crazy. I think people don’t realize that while we’re a Southern state that’s mostly Republican, there are a lot of liberals and leftists here (myself included).

- What does Ari usually do after razing a city?
- What is the general geography and climate of a settlement that your people enjoys living in?
- Perhaps a surprising moment from Ari? Like, you thought of writing her usual moments and stuff like that, but you decided to twist and mix it up a little.

[Nacrad]

This one may not be directly related to Val Z, but since you're from Myanmar, would you mind giving a few comments on the Burmese War factbook at the bottom of my Sig in the spoiler?

[Kiu Ghesik]

-questions!

1) Hrm... cry, I guess? I mean, she's only (canonically) razed one city as of now, most of the rest is smaller, more 'justifiable' engagements. That was Khevisarash, and after the adrenaline wore off she basically ended up thinking of herself an irredeemable monster for quite a long time. Y'know, considering it was basically a war crime. Other than that, it's generally a matter of "celebrating our victory over the foe", since most of her raiding takes place on a far more justifiable scale in her mind.

2) High steppe to taiga. They're fine with more arid steppe and high desert but there's not much high desert in Ghesite territory, since most of the high desert is in the foothills of the lower Kiadan, which is presently Berghi territory.

3) Probably the thing with Amara, to be honest. The idea of her getting fed up with being an ass to people she'd grown to begrudgingly respect and trying to reconcile was already in my head, and so when Albali posted the thing with Amara more or less giving me a chance to have Ari decide to go for apologizing I had to jump on it. It's the side of her that I enjoy writing most, to be honest- the side that isn't a warlord, that's actually a human being, and that regrets what she has to do to stay in power to the point of depression. It's a darker part of her but it's a more human part.

Where exactly does Gandoor fit in the real world? I read that Russian and Japanese are common there, which would make me think somewhere in the Sakhalin Islands. However, English is also the official language.

I would rather that you ask me about this on TG, but I suppose the rule of the forum doesn't say anything about the questions having to be about me. I suppose I will bite. On a serious and honest note?

On one hand, it's good that someone isn't going "Yay go junta." On the other... this feels like a "Nacrad / Fictional International Organisations, fuck yeah" moment and I am actually very conflicted on what to think of this, in the most sincere way. In short, I feel both uncomfortable and supportive with it, for the lack of a better word.

It's good, I suppose, that someone wanted this coup to end, but I have a rule about superstitions and bad omen. I know, I am overly optimistic, but like I said, there's a reason why Valentine Z wasn't established 20 mins into the future. In the same vein, this seriously should not be the way things should end in my homeland - with a war. The junta is bad, no doubt about it, but I would rather that less killings happen and solve this with minimal bloodshed.

To put it politely, I like what you did, don't get me wrong, but hopefully, this stays in the realm of fiction.

- Why do the Gandoorese has a slight dislike on Vietnam and Singapore? Mind you, I hope this is not confrontational, just me being curious.

- Other than Politics, because I see a lot of that in your factbooks, what other aspects do you find yourself liking to write? Like Geography? History? Little trivia bits?

---------------

BN: Aha! I actually have an answer for that! With reference to the green and pink flag, of course. :3

The green background represents the ever-present nature in our country, as well as the pristine environment that we have maintained painstakingly throughout the years. We have vowed to protect and favor the environment even if it means to slow down or reduce our economy output.

The heart in the middle represents our love, compassion, and friendliness for one another, with the pink colors strengthening this love to every single person in Valentine Z, regardless of race, language, gender, religion. Our goal is to ensure that each and everyone is treated fairly, and not to leave the weakest links and persons behind in their times of needs. A welfare state that takes care of its people. Inclusiveness also means that we are not exactly Politically Correct, but rather, it is simply a means to protect each other from discrimination.

Yes, I do intend to make a factbook for Queen Demi Maria! I just need to sit down and write it, but there's always something else to do (by that I mean procrastination). I have participated a little in a few leader threads on F7, but not the ones that need a leader factbook. The WA representative factbook was to have a face in the WA forums, and since it was fairly easy to make, it came first. The Queen's factbook will likely need a little more effort and attention, which is why I keep postponing making it

Guao, two people asking questions thanks to ninjaing lol.

Gandoor is located on a fictional landmass in the Pacific Ocean to the northeast of Indonesia and Papua New Guinea and to the east of the Philippines. I know it makes no sense for such a landmass to exist (and considering its size, it could be considered a continent [Gandoor is canonically larger than Australia]), but less one with significant Japanese and Russian-speaking populations, but I'm not one to care for being uber-realistic when it comes to my nation.

1. Favorite anime is The Rose of Versailles, a 1979 series based on the manga of the same name by Riyoko Ikeda. It's a historical drama anime set before and during the French Revolution and focuses on Oscar François de Jarjayes, the female commander of the French Royal Guards, responsible for the protection of Marie Antoinette (and the rest of the Royal Family) who eventually finds herself torn between her loyalties to the Royal Family and her loyalties to France and the French people.

Worst anime (at least that I've seen) is Transformers: Energon (AKA Transformers Super Link [Japanese title]). Literally the only positive I can say about this series is that the music, in both the Japanese and English versions, is pretty good. Everything else? Godawful. They don't have enough plot to fill the entire 52 episode show (the villains achieve their primary goal by episode 20. And then they get stopped and repeat the storyline for another 20 episodes), character development was often non-existent for lots of characters, the CG animation (used for the Transformers themselves, everything else was traditional 2D) was amazingly poor (characters couldn't emote more than 'mouth open, mouth closed' and had very limit animation with no sense of weight), and the English dub was full of mistranslations, 'filler' lines (like 'Ums' and 'Uhs', 'Let's do it!', etc.), and dialog that just makes no sense I mean, at least the Japanese version of the show, as boring and sluggish as it is, at least makes sense.

2. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Guess I just felt like doing it like that for some reason.

3. Took me at least a day or so to eventually make all those banknotes, IIRC. Mind you, I wasn't working on them non-stop, so in terms of actual time I was working was probably only a few hours total (because the banknotes used the same editing techniques for each of them, just changing the pictures, values, etc), but still.

4. Gandoorese are not very big fans of authoritarianism/near-authoritarianism. While no Gandoorese would say that Vietnam and Singapore are equivalent (acknowledging that Singapore at least has free elections), they're not fans of either country's restrictions on the freedom of expression and various other freedoms that Gandoor and Gandoorese considers fundamental.

How are The Primaeri evil space nazis?

In the current RP arc in the Cape of Good Hope, the Primaeri are responsible for the orbital bombardment of the Aerlanican homeland, which caused the death of approximately 800 million people. Their reason was that Aerlanicans are Aerlanicans. Both things are basically genocide.

And the fact that they haven't heard of the UDHR, Geneva Convention and a slew of other things including, but not limited to, the use of World Killers and slavery, they're very very evil.

However they aren't nazi's; they're technically a monarchy under the Emperor.

But Evil Space Imperialists doesn't really have that ring so I went for evil space nazis.

Anyway, Question for the UCBR, what was the idea/inspiration behind making a nation of space bunnies?
