General Info

➤ Karma is a region run by different factions or guilds called "Circles".

➤ The region has a number of different Circles that have different values and focus on certain ideas and aspects.

➤ You can become encircled by contacting the Sage in charge of that Circle and passing their trial.


The Government

➤ The Executive branch of the region comprises the Radial Council.

➤ The Radial Council is a group of 3 members from different Circles who are elected through a vote of the Encircled to serve a 3-month term.

➤ The Legislative branch of the region comprises the Assembly and the Speaker.

➤ The Assembly is the collection of all Encircled members who vote upon and make legislation.

➤ The Speaker of the Assembly heads Karma's legislative branch. They're elected in tandem with the Radial Council through a vote of the Encircled to serve a 3-month term. They lead all legislative discussions, post and verify votes, and archive Karmic law.


Additional Guides & Info

➤ More information about Karma can be found in The Karma Hub.

➤ NationStates has it's own FAQ which can answer many basic questions.

➤ Here's a Super Awesome Guide that goes much deeper into everything NationStates.


Final Thoughts

➤ Don't be afraid to ask questions. We enjoy helping new players understand NationStates.


Peace~!

Karma's RMB Rules


Be Inclusive:

➤ Nationstates has players from all over the world. The age range is decades wide. Respect other players and keep the RMB environment civil.

➤ It is okay to talk about yourselves on the RMB! But be aware of the age range. Be aware that anyone can see your posts. Do not dox yourself or anyone else.

➤ Everyone has bad days. It is okay to admit you are having a bad day; however, it is not appropriate to talk about suicide, law-breaking, personal health issues, etc. on the RMB. If you need help, seek a professional.

➤ Our regional officers cannot effectively moderate languages other than English. English is our common language; speaking in other languages excludes those who cannot speak it. All RMB posts should be in English.

Sages and RMB Mods have the final say on enforcement and interpretation of regional rules.

Be Chill:

➤ You are going to experience moments on NationStates that you do not agree with. Do not react to these moments with aggression or rudeness. Remain calm and let the RMB Mods do the heavy lifting.

➤ Do what the Sages, RMB Mods, and Game Mods ask. Trust that we are thinking with Karma's best interests in mind. We are only here to help.

➤ If you are not a Sage, RMB Mod, or Game Mod do not try to moderate the RMB. We have it under control. Mini-modding does not help the situation.

Sages and RMB Mods have the final say on enforcement and interpretation of regional rules.

Do Not Spam:

➤ Do not post links, ASCII art, long strings of emoji or emoticons, gibberish, or inappropriate language.

➤ Do not use puppet nations to talk to yourself on the RMB. You should only have one nation in Karma at a time. Puppet nations should be kept in Icor.

➤ Unless it is for a sanctioned regional event like Fridate or Question of the Day, refrain from posts with multiple paragraphs of text. An acceptable way to share longer posts is through the spoiler tags or by linking a dispatch.

➤ Do not recruit for other regions or for any offsite or interregional events. Any interregional coordination should be handled through our Department of Foreign Affairs.

Sages and RMB Mods have the final say on enforcement and interpretation of regional rules.

Abide By All Site Rules:

➤ Nationstates allows regions the freedom to moderate themselves, but there are some site rules too! (read more in the FAQ)

The Government

Karma runs a democratic government organized into guilds "Circles." Sages guide members of their own Circles and empower their members to run for elected offices, vote, participate in the legislature, and otherwise enact change in Karma.
The Misguidance is Karma's current constitution. Learn your rights as a citizen and how you can earn the power you need to make a positive change in Karma!

➤ If you are interested in the lore and philosophy behind the Circles, you can see those in The Circles dispatch. Make sure you know what you're getting yourself into before you commit to a Circle.

➤ If you want to run an event or reboot a discontinued program, ask yourself if you are ready and in a healthy frame of mind. If the answer is yes, talk to a member of the Radial Council.


The People

➤ There are a lot of people in Karma! Figure out who everyone is and whether you should listen to whatever the heck they're saying in Karma's Notable Nations.

➤ If you have a dispatch that you think would be useful to other Karmans, please let a Sage know!
