I have just reminded myself that Grout contains Concrete.
Guess what sugar does to concrete?

Do you want us to do that to Grout?
Then be quiet.

As if they don't get enough "support" from the ZU.

Learned that sugar is a good concrete retardant. This is more educational than school.

While I appreciate Paradox taking time to change up the warfare system in victoria 3, it would've been nice if they didn't completely ruin everything

Greetings, Libre houn, Timec tan!

Welcome to the Pacific! We're delighted to have you here. It can be a bit daunting to play NationStates or to be in the Pacific for the first time (or if you're just coming back!), but we're here to help you out. Below you'll be able to find a checklist of things you can do to get started as it will help you get a grasp of the basics and introduce you to the wider Pacifican community. If you're not new to NationStates but new to the Pacific, do make sure to still follow the instructions; it helps out a ton!

  • First things first, join the World Assembly! It's like the United Nations but in NationStates. If you're confused on how to join the World Assembly, this guide should be able to help you out.

  • Once you've joined the World Assembly, you can endorse any nation that is also in the World Assembly. It is extremely important for the security of the region that you make sure to endorse our World Assembly Delegate East Durthang.

  • Now that you've endorsed our World Assembly Delegate, you can join our forums and then apply for citizenship in the New Pacific Order. At most, the process will take a few days, and then after that - you're officially a citizen of the New Pacific Order.

  • The last thing that you need to do to get started is to join our Discord server. It allows you to communicate with all the members of the New Pacific Order, stretching across 3 main branches and other games as well. Since you're a citizen, you'll also get access to the special citizens-only channel too.

    BONUS

  • If you fancy yourself as a roleplayer, it's important that you make sure to read the RMB Roleplay Guidebook as it allows you to get an understanding of the basics of how roleplay is conducted in the Pacific. If you don't like the type of roleplay presented, you might want to consider joining the other Pacifican Roleplay Groups.

We hope you have a great time here in the Pacific!

The New Pacific Order

    What is the World Assembly and why should I join it?

    The World Assembly, often abbreviated as "WA", is the NationStates equivalent of the real-world United Nations.

    • Vote on game-wide legislation: World Assembly member nations are able to vote on resolutions that reach the floor of the General Assembly and Security Council, thus allowing you to participate in determining game-wide legislation.

    • Endorse other nations: WA nations may endorse (similar to social media "likes") other nations in the same region as them.

    • Write WA resolutions: WA nations with 2 (two) or more endorsements may submit WA resolutions of their own for the entire game to vote on.

    • Bolster the strength of your region: The more endorsements our delegate, East Durthang, has, the larger the weighted delegate vote in the World Assembly is, granting us more influence over international WA affairs. Furthermore, the more endorsements our leadership holds, the more difficult it is for hostile forces to seek to invade or disrupt the stability of our home.

    • Become a Pacifican Vanguard: Nations who endorse our delegate receive the title Pacifican Vanguard, are featured on this list, and are eligible for exclusive rewards, such as custom nation banners.

    Joining the World Assembly is the easiest step you can take in order to participate more in NationStates!

    How do I join the World Assembly?

    Follow the following five simple steps to get started in the World Assembly. If you need help, click on the spoiler sections to reveal screenshots of each step.

    1. Visit: page=un

    2. Click "Apply to Join". You must have an email registered with your account to access this feature.

    -
    • Please note that the game only allows you to have one nation as a World Assembly member at any given time! NationStates moderation may remove and/or ban your nations from the World Assembly and/or the game for violating this rule.
    • If, for roleplaying reasons, you do not wish to join the World Assembly make a separate nation to use as your World Assembly nation.

    What is Citizenship?

    As a part of the Pacific, you and every other Pacifican have the right to apply for NPO citizenship, and gain access to greater participation within the diverse activities and community of the region.

    Benefits of Becoming a Citizen

    • You will gain access to the internal proceedings of the New Pacific Order and membership in the Body Republic, which allows you to propose changes or new ideas that may aid in the regional direction in the future.

    • Joining the forum leads to the path to the forumside roleplay community as well as the gameside roleplay community.

    • Becoming a Citizen grants you to access our private Discord channels.

    • Citizenship is the first step to becoming an important figure in the region and being able to dictate policy as well as help lead other Pacificans.

    How do I Apply for Citizenship?

    1. LinkRegister an account on the forum. You will need to click the verification link emailed to the address you signed up with.

    2. Go to LinkAccount Settings -> Edit Profile. Enter your nation name and link then press the 'Save' button.

    3. Review our 'LinkCitizenship Application Instructions'. You can do this by clicking the link or by visiting Recipient Desk -> NationStates Applications -> Citizenship Application Instructions.

    What is Discord?

    Having probably heard about New Pacific Order's Discord server, either from your fellow Pacificans or from simply reading the regional page or dispatches, you might be wondering how to join it. Or not, if you are already a proficient Discord user, simply skip every step until the one where the server link is posted.

    Now, for those unaware, LinkDiscord is a communication app available in browser, PC app or mobile format that allows its users to form large organized communities. These communities are called servers, in most cases, and each one has its own specific organization and set of rules and moderators. The intent of this dispatch is to provide an initial introduction to how to function with Discord and, more particularly, the NPO's server.

    Benefits of Joining Discord

    • The ability to become fully integrated with all opportunities available in The Pacific and make the most out of your citizenship is attained through joining the most active aspect of the region.

    • A chance to help determine the regional direction for the World Assembly votes is also available if you so wish to help dictate our decision for specific proposals, including your own.

    • Discord gives you an easier route to meeting the extant regional leadership, discussing regional affairs, and is necessary for people who aspire to become involved in our government.

    • Inclusion in the full regional experience and introduction to the wider community of the New Pacific Order is available through Discord membership.

    Getting Started with Discord

    The first step would be to make an account in Discord itself. While not necessary to utilize server it is usually recommended due to ease of reusability and practicality. An account is absolutely free and simply unlocks a lot of features that a guest user might not have. Simply go to Linkhttps://discord.com and register an account, preferably with a username that won't breach any NPO rules, and this step should be done. You'll inevitably be prompted to confirm your email, so simply check your inbox.

    With your account registered you now have a few options. You can choose to do one of them, or even all of them. You can open Discord on your browser, download and install the application or download the mobile app. Any of them will work for the purposes of this tutorial, though the PC app is more flexible in terms of functionality (use of one platform does not exclude the use of others).

    LinkClick here to join the NPO Discord server. It is as simple as that after every previous step has been accomplished. Click it and after a prompt to join the server you will be in. Now comes the more specific part.

    Upon joining the server, if you have already applied for citizenship and been accepted (if not, check this dispatch for a guide on how to do it) Linkpost here to request that your account be added to private channels.

    If you have any more questions pertaining to the use of Discord itself, feel free to ask the people within the server for help. We hope your experience within the community is fun and fruitful.

A zombie version of my Country ball "comic" would be pretty cool.

Stranded mountaineers can watch livestreamed footage of their rescues, the nation is currently revamping its entire education system, foreign leaders are advising that Emperor Talong Mantisimus's letters must have gotten lost in the mail, and high school boys are required to pass vigorous self-mastery and sensitivity training to graduate.

Foes in Tahuriya Falter
February 21, 2024

After weeks of vicious fighting, Stickacian forces have broken through National Revitalization League defences and linked up with Feimarian forces holding Trachiandros. The encircled remainder of the NRL forces continue to hold out in the mountains east of the city. The withdrawal of Lebatuckese support seems to have had a severe effect on the ability of the NWC to continue fighting. The encircled forces holding the oilfields of Southern Tahuriya have been wiped out, and several thousand NRL soldiers have surrendered. Asar al-Asari, the leader of the organization, has not yet been located.

In the north, the NWC has likewise been almost destroyed. Aside from a few isolated compounds, held by organization’s Karaz Legion, the majority of the NWC’s territory has been seized, and most of its members have deserted. Many have taken the Stralan offer of refuge, and over thirty thousand fighters and their families have turned themselves over to Stickacian units claiming Stralan protection.

Sausage, mushroom, onion and extra cheese.

As someone who watches YouTube video essays and such about all four mediums of entertainment media below (some more than others), I have noticed some interesting discrepancies in the reactions to, and commentary on CGI, as satirized below.

“I saw a production still from this shot, and wouldn’t you know it; that river isn’t even there! It’s completely fake. Just dumb old CGI. And there isn’t a castle up there either, so they cheated there too. Dang filmmakers, always taking the laziest routes available. This is why cinema sucks now, because of everything being fake! Not like Topgun: Maverick; there was none of that lazy CGI crap there at all! That’s what real cinema is. And the quality of CGI in everything is getting worse too since the industry is so overwhelmed. They should just use practical effects. So what if they wouldn’t be able to find a castle that hasn’t been altered with all sorts of anachronistic stuff like huge windows on the ground floor. So what if the river would drown out all the audio, just fix it in post, they’ve got to do some ADR anyways.”

“Oh, seriously? They’re kissing now? Can't we just cut to inside the castle already? They didn’t build up any relationship chemistry for those characters at all! Just because they’re of the opposite gender and happen to be standing next to each other doesn’t mean they have to get together romantically. This show already has like four romance subplots, three of which are love triangles. Glad to know this is what they totally ignored all those potential super interesting plot points for; a million more generic romances! And none of them even have any effect on the main plot, since they were all friends anyways. This didn’t even need to be a miniseries. It should’ve just been a movie.”

“Wow, this is such a beautiful game! I could spend entire real life days just wandering around the open world looking at stuff, and not find a single flaw. Look at that river! Immaculate reflections; you can even see lights reflecting from the castle windows! And all the white water around the rocks, it’s basically photorealistic. They even animated water striders in the shallows there, and wow, are those tadpoles! I can see the tadpoles’ shadows! Oh, and the lighting! It’s literally more beautiful than the real world, or at least it doesn’t look like that around here. The animators did such an amazing job, they are truly incredible artists. It’s absolutely tragic how poorly these companies treat them. Just such a lack of appreciation for- hey I just saw a fish jumping over there!”

“‘The castle shone in the sun, its walls - daubed and coated in a lime whitewash - as brilliant as the chalk cliffs of Minhiriatheria.’ And of course, as always, in the stupid adaptation the castle just had bare stone walls. That’s completely historically inaccurate! Guy R. R. Guyson went to all the trouble of doing all that research, and back before the internet and Wikipedia existed too, all so they could just spit on him with a faithless adaptation! Pathetic! The book is better. The book is better. The book is better."
