Of altonianic islands

"While we're reminiscing, here's a picture of the number of nations we had in the first two weeks of NationStates's life. When I first put up this site, I sent an e-mail around to about 20 friends and told them to pass on the word. Boy, did that work. If humankind ever gets wiped out by a super-virus, the infection rate is going to look like this."

I'm calling it now; Max has a way to see the future.

I don't feel so good, I'm not sure what's wrong with me.

Have you checked the internet?

No, I'll go do that.

It's cancer.

Your sickness?

No the internet.

Cyanide and Happiness.

They take our regions left and right and it's okay, we make a comment explaining the fact that we do not approve of these trespasses and now we're considered an enemy.

I'm getting pre war of 1812 vibes here, we're America and they're Britain seizing sailors on the high seas and pressing them into service.

If war must come then let it, if our capital must burn then let it, if that's what it takes to get the respect that America gained after it's war of 1812, then so be it.

If they want war, we'll give it to them, if they want peace, then we want our regions back, if they are given back we'll go our seperate ways, we're reasonable, we'll happily take peace, but we won't hesitate to go to war in order to defend our own.

The decision is up to them.

Hopefully I don't add to that list? If I do, than I'm doing something wrong; I attempt to be on the list of good things in your life.

Greetings! I am a puppet from the fountain of activity over in HardBassSchool in Katanar! I'm here to enter into friendly discourse and discussion, in an attempt to kick start the activity of this region!

If you bring half the energy you have there to here, the world will be ours by the end of the year.

I do hope you enjoy your stay here.

I hope so! I'm a little confused about what I'm supposed to do . . . part of why Katanar's going so quickly, is that I know exactly what I'm trying to do. Give me a goal, and I'll strive towards it!

I've kind of lost the fire that I used to for the Empire since most everything I've tried has'nt worked out well.

My goals are some what vague, overly ambitious, and probaby achievable, and I don't know what short term goals I should be doing to achieve the larger ones or what to do at all.

Plus I don't have the help that I probably need, with the exception of Khakiturtle I'm basically alone and the the only one actually trying to do anything here.

Tell me your long term goals - I'll set my goal as figuring out what our short term goals should be.

Raxulan Manifesto

Below lists the goals of the Raxulan Empire.
We seek to:
  • Have a large regional population

  • To be decently active

  • Have an army that is really good at conquering and holding territory.

  • To have a high level of regional power

  • Have (at least) a handful of colonies that are decently sized and active

  • Faithfully serve His Imperial Majesty Kaiser Selven and Her Imperial Majesty Kaiserine Ladymorrighan with honor and distinction

  • Help keep Ladymorrighan's memory alive.

  • Be a safe haven for people that refuse to go with the crowd, are not afraid to dream big, and crazy, and for the out casts and rejects of society and rebels of the status quo.

  • Become one of the great Conservative regions of Nationstates

  • Be a defender of Conservatives, Libertarians, and Capitalists

  • Become a strong force for Liberty

  • Become a strong force against Tyranny

  • Help escort Marxism (no matter what form it may take), to the gates of Hell.

  • Rebel against the corrupt status quo.

I've gone through the list, and you're actually far closer than you make it out to be.

We seek to:
1. Have a large regional population

2. To be decently active

3. Have a large, powerful military

4. To have a high level of regional power

5. Have 517 territories

6. Have (at least) a handful of colonies that are decently sized and active (Going for 4 - currently have 2)

7. Faithfully serve His Imperial Majesty Kaiser Selven and Her Imperial Majesty Kaiserine LadyMorrighan with honor and distinction (Done)

8. Be a safe haven for people that refuse to go with the crowd, are not afraid to dream big, and crazy, and for the out casts and rejects of society (Done)

9. Become one of the great Conservative regions of Nationstates (Done)

10. Be a defender of Conservatives, Libertarians, and Capitalists (Done)

11. Become a strong force for Liberty (Done)

12. Become a strong force against Tyranny (Done; currently at war with J o J over this)

13. Help escort Marxism (no matter what form it may take), to the gates of Hell. (Done)

7-13 are largely subjective, and we will continue doing them even though we've technically accomplished them. The current active colonies are The Freedom Realm and Katanar; we are hoping for more, although we need to begin focusing more on the core Empire. Goal #4 requires high amounts of influence to be present in the region; as such, every WA nation should endorse as many other nations as possible. This will create more influence quicker. With regards to #1-3, we need to begin recruitment efforts. This can be most effective by doing what Katanar is doing, and setting up many embassies. This will gain us many individual ambassador nations, as well as build the population. Ditto to the military, since we'll be building military coalitions with us at the center. The final goal is #6; have 517 regions. This goal isn't really realistic; that's a lot of puppets, with a lot of pointless, empty regions. A better goal would be to have 517 embassies, which would help with every other as of yet unaccomplished goal we have.

Yes, but embassies are far easier. Furthermore, if you only had a dozen puppets, instead of hundreds, maybe you'd have more energy and motivation for this region.

Whatever you think you can do Rost. I'm just saying that if the Core is completely blank, the completely empty colonies aren't all that important. Focus on this region, The Freedom Realm, and Katanar. Make those regions vibrant and active. Then, and only then, should you worry about empty colonies. As such, I feel like having 517 regions should be the last thing you try to accomplish. The biggest thing we can do right now is get everybody to endorse each other, and set up embassies.
