YAY!

Who says nations from around the world working together could never work?

That's a big starting empire, but oh well. Good job

Well, I do give apostates special permission to migrate to other nations if said nations request them. Only fundamentalist YECs willing to fight the Lord's battles allowed in Brazil (FCSA.)

EDIT: An exception can be made for those who helped me.

Well you can't say I didn't work for it.

Am I required to make it smaller? If so, can I please just get less tomorrow rather than doing all that work again?

ok, I'm tired of being one of the few nonlinked countries, so here's my info:



Name (Official): The Liberal Republic of Pacifistan
Name (Short): Pacifistan

Motto: Pax et Aequitas (Peace and Justice)

Anthem: San Francisco (Flowers in your Hair)

Official Language(s) Spanish and English

Capital: San Francisco

Development Rating: First world

Government: Parliamentary Republic

Current PM: Gavin Newsom

Political setup: Operates on a parliamentary system. Executive power is placed in the hands of the Prime Minister, who is selected by the majority party or party partnership. There is a check on the PM in the form of the President, who is elected by direct election, and holds some veto powers, which themselves can be overturned by 2/3s vote in the House. Parliament is bicameral, composed of two houses. The House of the People, referred to as The House, is the lower house, operates on proportional representational members, tied to their district. There are 463 districts in Pacifistan. The second house is House of State, referred to as State. Members of State represent the overarching state they reside in. There are 30 states, and each state has 3 members.

Social policy: Far left. Drugs and Alcohol are generally legal (with the exception of some particularly dangerous drugs), gay marriage is legal, abortion is legal, the state has a universal single payer health care system, and a well executed welfare system.

Economic policy: Capitalism and free market, though there is a lot of government regulation, and in some sectors, a government-run alternative to act as a competitor.

Overview of the economy: The largest industries in Pacifistan are: Farming, headed by the agriculturally lush areas of California's Central Valley, Idaho, Hawaii with it's rich Pineapple and sugarcane industries, and some parts of Mexico; Technology, based in California's silicon valley, with it's crown jewel of San Jose, Pacifistan is the world leader in technological production and innovation. Services, such as the large chains of Starbucks comprise a goodly portion of Pacifistani GDP, and finally, Industry, which, while substantial, is not as high as in other parts of the world.

Military: Maintains an army of about 200,000 infantry, which are mostly on reserve or on guard duty. Pacifistan prides herself on her very well run navy, which is among the top 5 in the world. The majority of the navy is based in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, with most of the rest of it based in San Diego. Pacifistan's air force is compact, but technologically well developed. Most of her aircraft are located in her Aircraft carriers, but she does sport a well maintained bomber fleet, and a few fighter and bomber-fighter squadrons.

We don't know if they're "big" territories based on the GM, though, so let's see what Thorvald thinks.

I'd say the three on the left are big. Anything around the size of a US western state or bigger (CA, NV, AZ, etc.) is "big"

Now that I look at it...although the map is affected by putting an almost spherical object on a flat surface, you're probably correct.
Domination, big territories cost two "points" instead of one. Well...at least you know how to post the map...so...

Considering he's a new player I may decide to stretch it a bit. My decision will come in the form of the map update.

Scotland releases its latest modifications to its national data. At note is it's Population, International Policies, Military and National Anthem.

Owen, I can accept the rest of what you do, but I will strongly suggest you either illegalize or at least let the states decide whether to allow murder (Abortion) in your land or not.

It is an evil against God, and you shall not force states to allow it.

Any state governments, shut down your abortion clinics.

I would also encourage you to weaken or shut down UHC. Nobody deserves a free handout.

In other words, I strongly disagree with your setup. I suggest you change your government to a capitalist society. In my opinion, you are far worse than Hitler or Stalin ever was, you not only kill those who disagree with you, but those who have never been born. I only kill those who displease God.

I declare Owen Glyndwr's government to be an apostate state, its leader an imp of the devil, and until at minimum abortion is decided at the state level, I will not negotiate with him on any matters.

Since I worked a long time to get that map, could you please let me keep it, and, if it is too much, tell me not to add land tomorrow. Please, I worked a long time to get that land. Thank you.

What nation is bordering on mine?

Byzantium never allowed abortion in the first place. not even for health reasons.

alright, screw it, im reclaiming Brazilian lands in violation of the agreement.



and Lym, sorry for causing you a lot of work...

I don't either. In fact, it is considered murder (This I actulally think should happen in real life. However, I recognize, in real life, unlike in this game, that people who commit abortions are unaware of the evil of their act, and so are not actually as evil as Hitler. Unlike real life, ignorance means naught in this game to me, and I will cut off trade with anyone so barbaric.)

At least state's right is fair enough, and this I will accept, however, Owen, if you require states to enable abortion, I will embargo you and ask any other Christian states to do so.

EDIT: Do you have a nation now? We should form a "Christian State Alliance," inviting all nations with Christianity as the State Religion to join in a defensive pact and mutual trade.

Well...it's kind of a debate right now. The orange used to be the Neo-Incans, until the leader of them quit and he gave his land to the leader of the Marian Federation (Taniciusfox), but the UN doesn't like having a country double its size, so it's being debated. IMO, Tanicius should keep it, but that's a different subject.
