Greetings, Judmullyzanapite, Elderstadt, Tortured, Great dictatorship of thaumiel!

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!

Regards,
The New Pacific Order

Hello there, Shinsui Empire!

Welcome to the Pacific! There are a lot of ways to enjoy NationStates, and the Pacific caters to all of them. To get started in the Pacific, it's important that you complete the below steps to fully enjoy your experience here in the Pacific and the New Pacific Order as either a new NationStates player, newcomer to the Pacific, or as a returning NationStates player.

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.

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.
3. Go to your affiliated email and click the link provided. If you cannot find it, check your spam folder.
4. You will be directed to a page where confirmation is required. Click the confirmation button on the page.
5. When you are in the World Assembly, visit East Durthang's page and find the "Endorse East Durthang" button. Click this. Once that is done, you will have successfully endorsed your Delegate!
-
• 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
- This will present the opportunity to choose one or more specializations in the region's government and gain access to more engaging aspects of the region and what it has to offer.
- 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. Register an account on the forum. You will need to click the verification link emailed to the address you signed up with.
2. Go to Account Settings -> Edit Profile. Enter your nation name and link then press the 'Save' button.
3. Review our 'Citizenship Application Instructions'. You can do this by clicking the link or by visiting Recipient Desk -> NationStates Applications -> Citizenship Application Instructions.
4. Create a new topic in the NationStates Applications forum and fill out the questionnaire from the Citizenship Application Instructions.
5. Check your application topic periodically and answer the questions asked by our admissions staff.

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, Discord 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 https://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).
Click 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) post 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.

While the constitutional draft is debated in the House of Representatives, the Senatorial Council has approved the Minister of Economy's proposal to partially privatize the State Construction firm.
Now, while that will not come into effect for some time, many should prepare for the day the stock market opens, to buy some shares.

(This is besides the point, but Conservatives are day by day obstructing all democratic institutions they could find, so if anyone wanted to contact us from our last message Report till now, that's why)

Campaign trail Cassandra Deffers 2027

Scenario 2027

In this game, you take on the role of Cassandra Deffers and head down the 2027 Presidential election campaign trail. For each question, you must choose one option, and, depending on your choice, your popularity will either increase or decrease. Given that your presidency has been relatively succesful, your current popularity is at 40 points. At the end, you will need to calculate your popularity at the end of all the changes your nswers make to it.

1) With campaigning season start just around the corner, one of the main decisions for you to make right now is to pick a running mate. Who will you choose for this position?

This is music to ears of your core voter base. With the two of you agreeing on just about everything, MP Conyngham is a fine choice for a running mate.

Popularity: +1

Good choice. While he and you may have some disagreements, Korablev brings a lot of moderate left-wing voters to polls who otherwise would have stayed home.

Popularity: +2

While Thomas is, indeed, popular, he isn't a statesman. He is a man of military. People want your running mate to be a good president if need arises. Thomas doesn't have the skill to get legistlation passed.

Popularity: -1

What!? Why would you, a right-wing reformer, pick a socialist as your running mate? This is blatant betrayal of your main voter base!

Popularity: -2

2)It is now your first major rally of the campaign. Having announced that you are running for re-election, you must now choose the message on which you will campaign.

There is nothing wrong with taking the high road.

Popularity: +2

Popularity: +1

THis strategy proves surprisingly efficient.

Popularity: +2

Your opponents did do some of this, and it didn't hurt their PR. They did get some advantage over you financially though.

Popularity: -1

This provokes a major scandal, as many people accuse you of inappropriate, even impeachable behavior.

Popularity: -2

One of the best investments of this entire campaign. Even your opponents end up sponsoring your campaign, as they buy some of the merch which depicts you and Thomas in awkward adventure situations.

Popularity: +2

Boring, but practical.

Popularity: +1

Resignation in disgrace.

How could it possibly have gotten this bad? In a short span of time, you went from adored to universally hated, and now, as Novoblupolia awaits inauguration of President-elect Matvey Guchkin, chaos reigns. Hopefully the declaration of Martial Law by Thomas Deffers will be able to hold the nation together until the law and order candidate steps in. What a mess...

Humiliating defeat.

Music: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iI_i5_h6wWo

This hurts. It was supposed to be a relatively easy victory. But everything just kept going wrong. Now, it's all lost. You won't be able to truly fulfill your vision for a liberal Novoblupolia. Maybe nobody ever will.

A close defeat.

Music: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N-aK6JnyFmk

Well, you've done your best, but it seemingly wasn't enough. But if such is the will of the people, who are we to argue with the choice they made? Time to call Matvey and congragulate him on his victory, and then start packing.

4 more years!

Music: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d5ZRZK1htEA&t=49s

The crowds cheer your name as you give your victory speech. You have preserved the course of liberal reform and will continue to lead the nation into a better tomorrow for the next 4 years. Good luck, Ms. President.

Lady Liberty.

Music: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eta8IWPoleU&t=120s

Wow. You had a bit of an advantage, but this goes beyond "a bit". Way beyond. This is an absolute landslide victory - one for the history books. Millions errupt in thunderous applause during your victory speech. Your course has proven to align itself very closely with the hearts of Novoblupolians. Now, as far as Novoblupolians are concerned, your name is up there along with Douglas Henrison among the greatest Novloblupolians in history.

Congragulations, lady liberty.
