Westfalen WestphaliaBoard

Westphalia was not my first region, but it stuck with me. I remained a resident for a while up until the infamous raid, which led me to moving to Rhinia as a temporary residence. When Westphalia was liberated, I stayed in Rhinia as a "citizen living abroad", so to speak. Of course, now, everyone knows where that region went. When Tetros was upsurped, I joined alongside future founders of Perifania and others in protest against the government there, standing up for Westphalian values before eventually leaving that region for good.

I was glad when I moved back here, and for a few months it was back to being a not-too-active resident, until the beginning of summer, when The Confederation of The Rhine was created. By then, I was nominated as a Westphalian representative, and operated in the region as Merftastic. Immediately, I saw that the alliance region wasn't active, and so I decided to write detailed dispatches to serve as legislation. The idea behind this legislation being to provide more structure, and give more life to the region as a whole. Up to now, every piece that I wrote has passed, giving the example of protocol that representatives now follow when it comes to incorporating outside regions, military assistance, Overseer and representative terms, and etc.

Overall, I believe my actions speak enough to show I am willing to stand up for Westphalia. Whether it be from outside or inside the region, I am ready to do my part in strengthening this beautiful region.

2. As Senators, you make or break the laws in the constitution. What is your first goal?

My first goal, if I am elected into office, would be to review past legislation that we currently have as a nation. Once inspected, I plan on then working with my fellow senators to fix or add to the Westphalian constitution, giving better organised laws that nations can better understand on follow.

3. You also are allowed to work in RP! You can make laws their, such as a bans on certain items, currencies etc. What might be your first goal there?

Well, cooperation is key in this case. In terms of RPs, there are quite a few routes to take. Working with other senators to work on setting specific guidelines for local RPs is a start. The ultimate goal in this realm I believe is to further unite allies of Westphalia with us by having an proper inter-regional RP, which I am aware has been done in a limited sense.

4. What are your opinions on the inter-regional politics (CTR, Westphalian Raiding/Defending, Westphalian Ideologies) Westphalia has been handling in the last month?

More locally, I want to make clear that I do not support the lies that have been spread from outside this great region, and by someone formerly associated with this region, of Westphalia and CTR being fascist. There are no truly supportive facts of these claims, and I hope everyone in this region knows that Westphalia is a supporter of democracy and does not support the fascist ideology. The same goes for the Confederation, whose incorporation of regions across the political spectrum, for the sake of clarity, is not a demonstration for the support of fascism or of a totalitarian regime. Also, I encourage Westphalia to be blocked off via password during or after the elections, until we have the whole founder situation figured out. Right now I believe raider attack is the biggest security risk at the moment.

In terms of The Confederation of The Rhine, I believe that there is great future potential for the alliance, especially now as new regions join, and the population of representatives grows as well. Not to mention, relations with regions inside the alliance have been very friendly. The only criticism I have is that we as an alliance need to work better at mobilization, which I believe with coordinated practice will no longer be a problem.
