Hello and welcome!

Make sure you check out this dispatch:

Welcome to Thalassia!

Hello and welcome to the region of Thalassia, a seafaring bastion of freedom and democracy! We're so glad you've decided to join our community. This guide is for all new Thalassians, whether you are new to the game in general or just new to our region. Still have questions? Ask on the RMB/Discord or reach out to a member of our government!

Note: Some of the information in this dispatch may be out of date, but I try my best to keep it current! If you would like to suggest an edit or addition, please contact Sho.

Your First Steps

So you've just joined our region, you've answered your issues, and now you're not sure what to do next? Not a problem!

First things first... Have you blocked those pesky recruitment telegrams? If yes, perfect! Next question.

Now... Are you a member of the WA?

But Sho! Why should I join the WA? I'm glad you asked, theoretical other half of this conversation! Even though our citizens are not required to join the World Assembly or "WA", they should consider it because:

WA citizens have the right to vote on World Assembly legislation as well as participate in our regional referendums, run for a regional office, and to collect and give endorsements, which strengthen our region. And when you endorse our Delegate and Vice Delegate, you're giving our region more of a say on the world stage! You can also enroll in our endorsement program ThalassiEndos which encourages endorsement swapping, incentivized by prizes.

Obviously, to participate in this program, first you must be a member of the WA.

Next, you need to endorse the key 5. Our current Delegate, Zentata, and his Vice-Delegate, Ayeinc, ask that you not only prioritize endorsing them, but also the following nations: Owl Archipelago, Arenado, and Sho. Though you are not required to, it’s important to consider for the security of our region! If you’re not endorsing these nations, you may be pinged periodically in The Vice-Delegate’s Mention as a reminder.

Finally, telegram Zentata and request to join “The Anchors”!

Now... Introduce yourself on Thalassia's RMB and become a part of our community. Consider Linkjoining our Discord. Request your spot on the map and start roleplaying. Perhaps write a factbook or two. NationStates is made richer by its users' imaginations! (back to top)

Rules And Regulations

Every game has its rules and every government has its laws. No one is exempt! Make sure you read these so you aren't caught unaware!

Please don't police the RMB. We have moderators for that! If you're experiencing an issue, reach out to an RMB Mod or any regional officer with "Border Control" permissions.

Thalassian Government

Roles of the Ministries

The Prime Minister oversees the Cabinet, comprised of four mandatory ministries (and any additional ones the incumbent Prime Minister may create for the term), which is appointed to assist with various regional programs and activities. Each ministry serves as an important cog in the machine that keeps this region running!

The mandatory ministries and their respective roles are:

  • Culture

    The Ministry of Culture is in charge of planning, managing, and moderating community events and activity, ranging from games to cultural enrichment to roleplay. They also manage the map of Thalassia, a crucial tool to regional roleplay.

  • Foreign Affairs

    The Ministry of Foreign Affairs handles diplomacy with other regions and organizations. Members of this ministry serve as ambassadors to our embassies and integrate themselves into their communities, looking for ways to strengthen our relationship, whether through official or casual means.

  • Information

    The Ministry of Information ensures our citizens have access to important information and regional news. They oversee the integration of newcomers and maintain our regional newspaper. If you ever have a question, these are usually the people to ask- if they don't know, they'll point you to someone who should.

  • Security

    The Ministry of Security oversees the moderation and safety of our community, as well as the collection and management of intelligence necessary to the Thalassian government. 'Nuff said.

This administration’s current additional ministries and their respective roles are:

  • Administrative Affairs

    The Ministry of Administrative is a tool for the Prime Minister an his government to aid in advising and assisting the ministries in tasks that may be more cumbersome than their usual day to day duties. The Minister and Deputy of this non-staff Ministry are also tasked with the occasional community review to ensure the government is doing its best to serve the community.

  • Recruitment

    The Ministry of Recruitment is a nation’s first introduction to Thalassia - people who participate in this ministry reach out to new nations to introduce and recruit them to our region.

How to Join the Ministries

The Cabinet is requested to handle the recruitment for their ministries directly. Nations are encouraged to telegram the minister of the ministry they would like to partake in.

New citizens are encouraged to apply and build their resumes. Applicants may partake in more than one ministry, but the Prime Minister or a cabinet minister may dismiss you from a position if they believe you are spread too thin.

Note: The Ministry of Administrative Affairs, Ministry of Security, and Ministry of Recruitment are not currently hiring.

Qacisca wrote:Do we hold elections? Are there any political parties?

Yes, as a region we have Prime Ministerial elections as well as referendums on regional matters (one coming up later). Political parties have been discussed in the past but have never been too popular. I think people found them to be unnecessarily divisive and I prefer voting for the best candidate rather than a political group.

Nations role play their own elections too, I don’t know if the roleplay group TAN will have elections?

[RP]

Following a terrorist attack by someone on a tourist visa, Grasswhistle has asked its media outlets to comply with new guidelines regarding this novel threat. The face of the perpetrator along with his manifesto is to be shown as little as possible as to avoid copycat attacks and the celebration of his actions. However, some groups in Grasswhistle have stated that the perpetrator and others like him should be exposed so people know what to watch out for. The matter is up for debate, with the nation's public news provider (Grasswhistle News), taking questions from viewers regarding the ethics of making the perpetrator's beliefs and manifesto known.
