The cumbrian state

This crisis has exposed the flaws within the capitalist/socialist economic models.

The socialist theory of underproduction advocates the approximation of production to the necessities which the State defines as what the worker needs and not wants to enhance his mind and talents. During such a crisis as we are undergoing right now, the State would not have the material needs to fuel it's struggle against the virus, therefore dampening both the people's security and the State's ability to adapt to unforeseen circumstances.

Reflectively, the capitalist model of production aggregates the distribution of goods as boundless: facilitating the needs of the markets. As we have seen during the 'Roaring 20s' and now with the coronavirus, the overproduction spawned as a result of the ever-increasing market demand have deprived the State of any way to configure it's production portfolio and quotas towards alleviating the economical impact of the Great Depression/coronavirus.

Corporatism is the solution. By holding a National Council of Coroporations and working with the guilds to pacify tensions between the worker and the employer, you can control the production, distribution and wages within industry. This allows the State to adapt freely to any economic challenge it faces as it derives ultimate control over the economy, nor the market in the capitalist system and avoids he economic deprivation promoted by underproduction.

Corporatism is the penultimate economic metamorphosis; synthesized as a combine between alternating left/right wing economics.

To do our region loss, and if to win,
The fewer men, the greater share of honor.
God’s will! I pray thee, wish not one man more.
By Jove, I am not covetous for gold,
Nor care I who doth feed upon my cost;
It yearns me not if men my garments wear;
Such outward things dwell not in my desires:
But if it be a sin to covet honor,
I am the most offending soul alive.
No, faith, my brother, wish not a man from England:
God’s peace! I would not lose so great an honor
As one man more, methinks, would share from me
For the best hope I have. O, do not wish one more!
Rather proclaim it, my brother, through my host,
That he which hath no stomach to this fight,
Let him depart; his passport shall be made
And crowns for convoy put into his purse:
We would not lose in that man’s company
That fears his fellowship to be with us.
This day is called the Election day:
He that outlives this day, and comes safe home,
Will stand a tip-toe when the day is named,
And rouse him at the name of Crispian.
He that shall live this day, and see old age,
Will yearly on the vigil feast his neighbours,
And say ‘To-morrow is The Day:’
Then will he strip his sleeve and show his scars.
And say ‘These wounds I had on Election day.’
Old men forget: yet all shall be forgot,
But he’ll remember with advantages
What feats he did that day: then shall our names.
Familiar in his mouth as household words
Jocospor, ShrewLlamaLand and Depackya,
Regna Loreau and West Heisen,
Khanbaliq Mongolia and Alexander the magnus,
Be in their flowing cups freshly remember’d.
This story shall the good man teach his son;
And Election day shall ne’er go by,
From this day to the ending of the world,
But we in it shall be remember’d;
We few, we happy few, we band of Dictators.
For he today who votes for Jocospor
shall be my brother; be he ne’er so vile,
this day shall gentle his condition:
and gentlemen in the Confederation now a-bed,
shall think themselves accursed they had not voted
and hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks
That fought with us upon Election day.

This dispatch details the events of Round 3 of the 2020 World Assembly Secretary-General Election.

Summary

When it became apparent that Jocospor would have enough votes to qualify for the General Election by placing in the top five positions in Round 3, all five other competitive candidates, representing the WA Elite, proceeded to rig the election by redistributing votes from the top two candidates to ensure that Jocospor would not qualify for the General Election.

Four candidates, all of who qualified for the General Election, were directly responsible for the election rigging: Kuriko, Trans anarcho-communist lesbian catgirls, McMasterdonia and Caelapes.

Three other candidates and/or their campaigns, all within the top eight, were implicit in this rigging: Valentine Z, Auralia and The Bigtopia.


Background

Jocospor had placed fifth in Round 2 of the election, with a total of 6.7% of the vote, well ahead of the 6th and 7th placed candidates by over 2 points.

In response to the "Go aWAy" movement against WA campaign telegrams, Jocospor, unlike most other major candidates, announced their campaign would not likely send a tag:WA telegram at the start of Round 3.

Initially, the race for 5th place was close between Jocospor and Valentine Z, with the two candidates exchanging 5th/6th place throughout the first twelve hours of Round 3.

After announcing ShrewLlamaLand as Running Mate, the Jocospor campaign began to build a small lead over Valentine Z, whose campaign sent a telegram out in response. Jocospor was forced to respond with a late telegram of their own, including a promotional video, which ultimately resulted in a significant polling uplift and a sizable lead being generated.

With approximately eight hours of the vote in Round 3 remaining, Jocospor had overtaken both Valentine Z and Caelapes to take 4th place. Considering the voting trend at the time, Jocospor looked set to place between 3rd and 4th and comfortably qualify for the General Election.


The WA Elite and Election Rigging

With around six hours remaining, the voting pattern for both Valentine Z and Caelapes dramatically began to shift. When Jocospor's vote count increased, the vote count for both other candidates proceeded match this gain in votes. The growth in vote counts for both Kuriko and Trans anarcho-communist lesbian catgirls also began to slow.

Over the next few hours, both Valentine Z and Caelapes proceeded to overtake Jocospor, and their vote count ultimately equalised with McMasterdonia.

For the final three hours of Round 3, their voting totals remained locked and slightly ahead of Jocospor.

The final vote tallies at the end of Round 3 were as below, with McMasterdonia gaining slightly in the final seconds to secure 3rd place.


Evidence of the WA Elite's involvement

Kuriko posted a message on 10000 Islands' RMB asking nations to "keep the fascist Jocospor from the top 5 positions", and also voted for a competitor themself:

Trans anarcho-communist lesbian catgirls sent a telegram implying the same, and also voted for a competitor:

McMasterdonia dropped out of the race shortly after securing a position in the General Election to become Trans anarcho-communist lesbian catgirls' Running Mate.

Caelapes sent a telegram explicity asking nations to "work together to make sure the top five candidates are Kuriko, Trans Anarcho-Communist Lesbian Catgirls, McMasterdonia, myself and Valentine Z".

Valentine Z was ultimately the beneficiary of this election rigging, placing top 5 when they otherwise would have not. They refused to disavow the rigging, and proceeded to thank their "friends" for rigging the election on their behalf.

Evidence suggesting Auralia's campaign was involved was provided from a third-party source. Their running mate, United massachusetts was confirmed to be involved, while Auralia denied the allegations and refused to support any candidate in the General Election.

The Bigtopia and their Running Mate, The Stalker, were planning to become involved from Discord screenshots. The Bigtopia later denied seriously considering participating in the election rigging, and ultimately did not direct their votes towards competitors.


The Aftermath

The three illegitimate candidates who had placed 3rd-5th ahead of Jocospor in Round 3 were all, unsurprisingly, uncompetitive in the General Election.

As mentioned previously, McMasterdonia dropped out of the race shortly after the start of the General Election to become Trans anarcho-communist lesbian catgirls' Running Mate.

Valentine Z, despite running against three candidates in the General versus dozens in the round prior, failed to even match their vote total from Round 3, finshing solidly in last place.

Caelapes also failed to mount a serious challenge and finished 3rd, well behind the leading two candidates.

Ultimately, as a result of the election rigging, the General Election was uninteresting and uncompetitive: a two-way race between Kuriko and Trans anarcho-communist lesbian catgirls, resulting in the former winning with a near majority of votes.

I am moving on, but we need to band together to stop it from happening again.

I wasn't in support of the idea that rigging had taken place, but to shift votes in such a way, and to create a stale uncompetitive environment that goes against the spirit of the election to begin with is beyond dishonest and definetely deserving of the label of rigging. This is sad, yet expected. These paras*tes are awfully predictable and so are the next 4 more years of WA/SC b*llshit. However let it not be forgotten they consistently sh*t their pants at the thought of one of us getting anywhere near the top 5. Jocospor has demonstrated our world view is well within the hearts and minds of a lot of nationstates users and that as time goes by we're less and less outnumbered and in increasingly better company.

I wish to better the Fifth Empire, by strengthening our moral shield, our connection with our allies, our regional presence, and our regional power. A vote for me is a vote for a better Fifth Empire. I will, to the best of my ability, oppose all compromise with the immoral leftwing, strengthen embassy ties and create new ones, make the Fifth Empire a vote mover, and the Fifth Empire lager and more powerful. We need to band together with our like-minded allies to forge connections that will enable us to be able to stand up for our principles and doctrines.

What is my good brothers, a body without veins? What is a body without blood flowing through it? Now I ask you what is a nation without connections? Isolated, fragmented alone to fend for itself with no hopes for its brothers to reach it. What is a nation, without RAIL? Nothing! Little more than an agglomerate of loosely tied settlements that when worse comes to worse would fall like a castle of cards to the wind. As Minister, our nations and those of our friendly regions would be stimulated in industry by the rising demand for railway infrastructure. Our steel industries would benefit from rails. Our information technology industries from new signalling systems and central control centres for railway networks of all shapes and sizes. Our individual populations would be able to move around like never before, truly making our countries paragons of unity.
As a cornerstone of this policy, the incremental rail tree would make its entrance. We would tie our region with the visionary Breitspurbahn, a 3 000mm wide track gauge, with colossal doubledecker coaches, for spacious and deign means of transportation for our grand peoples, as well as cargo. Fellow friendly regions would be connected by monumental viaducts across oceans with this very gauge, and double tracks, no less.
What of our enemies? The railroad once again holds the answer. Unparalleled in their logistical effectiveness, there is no better than our rolling stock to keep our troops supplied through the fires of war. Better yet, rolling stock can be armed and armoured to great effect, acting as true mobile fortresses capable of acting as walls of fire against aerial incursions, and providing highly mobile artillery units in home defence scenarios.
To those who would shamelessly lick the tires and turbines of cars and planes, cut their mountains and split their plains with unsightly, black swathes of tarmack for frivolous things like convenience and speed, you would choke your people and children with the black hands of smog? It would be myopic, greedy, and bordering the treacherous.
Let's get the Fifth Empire on the right track, and always on time.
