Welcome To Your Nation

Hello, and welcome to, well, Your Nation.

This game will be half-quest and half-roleplay, as you, the tropers, will play the newly appointed security council of your very own nation.

This nation of your’s has a plethora of problems, and it is important that you debate and find solutions to solve your wonderful country’s problems as they come.

But, your nation’s issues will come soon enough. First things first: We need a good idea of who the security council is comprised of.

In your first post: Introduce your name (can be your own, or a character's), and what you want for your country.

And, the second most important thing, suggest your country’s name! I will take all the suggestions, and randomize them, and the winning name will be the name of Your Nation.

Most important, as always, be civil and have fun.

The features will be destined by the council. This way, the problems will Be brought to you without control, and it’s your job to bring control to it.

Welcome to the council, Cambrius.

Country Name: Watchtown

Character Name: Rollix

Welcome to the Council, Rollix

"I am Clawdius, king of the crabs. I want a ban on fishing! ...Or at least to find other food sources."

"Oh, and I vote Tridentia for the name."

Are you an actual crab? This won’t decide your membership, you’re in either way, I’m just curious.

Yes, as long as it's okay with you.

How many more names until ya randomize

I would prefer a guy raised by crabs, but whatever, I want you guys to have freedom.

I want at least one more character.

Welcome to the Council, Clawdius.

I haz split persons allity, duz count deese?

Apologies, Councilman Duck, but split personalities have no rights yet.

> Name: Pierre duPont-Devereaux II, chairman of Trope Co

> Values: I want a country of morality and decency. Not like these weirdos.

> I vote to name the country Utropia™ brought to you by TropeCo.

Welcome to the Council, Mr. duPont Deveraux II.

Now to write up a longpost about this country that is now named Tridentia, and more importantly, the issues that plague it.

First issue, Tridentia, phluh! Name should be Tropestria. I join Tridentia only under extreme protest.

Tridentia is a wonderful country, that has prospered due to its border by the sea, and the amount of trade it receives from its primary partner, the island of Kara Stia.

Tridentia has also long been friends with the neighboring countries of Kakistan, a desert country which shares a land border with you, Ersaz, a colony owned by the large and powerful States of Bors, which is a sea away. Ersaz shares a landborder, as well as owning some of the coast

However, the trading coast that makes Tridentia so special is also home to Scullia. A hostile nation that has previously decried Tridentia as a poor state. A large sect of Scullians are publishing books about splitting into two nations, but the oppressive government refuses to gift the right to the people. There is even evidence to suggest that Scullia has killed protestors in the past, though this is so far unproven.

Scullia is a powerful nation on its own right, and even worse, they are also allies with Kara Stia. So, direct conflict could harm your relationship with your friend.

And, another problem: you may wonder why you guys are an all new security council. Well, the previous Council was assassinated.

See, on the same day, the five council members separately blew up, died in their bed, were run over, died of food poisoning, and fell from a building. The deaths were supposedly caused by an assassination group called “the seven men”, apparently a group of seven men who are out to deal with those who are corrupt.

Now, it is time to act. You must decide on a specific act for your country’s government to enact. Debate between yourselves on what it is you must do, and then vote on it. If at least three of you support an action, it will take place.

I am your Security Foreman. My name is Security Foreman Blsh. Only talk to me if you have a question about what you can do, or if you want something clarified. Other than that. It’s up to you guys.

First rule, no eating da dux. Second rule, if eating da dux, dux eat dux eaters, have special teeth in put for purpose that.

Important stuff out of way, we inform Kara Stia of Scullia feud, but dey noes deese already, no? We consult wid dem about wut to do about Scullia, inform if comes to war wid Scullia, den dey must pick sides, dem or us. Send diplomat, muzt choose careful words for deese.

Also curious, why leave old countries? I leave old country for being poor. I not poor, country eez. Not even afford naming, we juzt call old country.

Watches, everybody, watches. We hold one of the biggest industrial complexes in the area. We can easily convert it into war factories and carpet bomb them in days. Meanwhile, we can negotiate a deal with our rivals to make sure we’ll come out ahead. However, it should be stated that we need proof of Scullia’s atrocities at the negotiation table. Maybe hold on another month and wait for civil unrest to boil naturally, than seek favorable conditions then?

I say noe, we not war bringers, but if fight we muzt, den we fight. But we noe start fight, we not dat country.

"Yes, we must be strong in case we are attacked, but we shouldn't actually start the fight. That is not the way of the crab."

"Sending a diplomat to Kara Stia is a good idea. Surely they don't want a war either. If they are close to Scullia, maybe the Scullians would be more inclined to listen to them telling them not to fight than to us."

We need to incentivize military industrialization through the country? Is everyone sure that the country wants this war?
