Anything, really, as long as it does not have fruits on it or much vegetables, 😂

My favorite pizza, is the Honolulu Supreme!!! Large pizza. Toppings: Pineapple, sweet and acidic! Ham, savory and salty! Bacon... it's BACON!!! Roasted red peppers, for that mild-spicy and smoky flavor.

It's good. :u

We like tomatoes on pizza and burgers, but that's it. Eating tomatoes by themselves is just [insert vomiting emoji here].

Good morning, afternoon or evening, wherever and whenever you are! Today the election is still happening great people of Thalassia. And I would like to remind you all that I’m the alternative.

I might not be as experienced as the other candidates but through this election I haven’t started insulting them or trying to undermine them. I believe in a just election.

No anchor can stop the Mighty Owl! Vote for me and we shall rise!

We're entering the final day of the presidential election. Just wanted to say thank you to my voters - thank you!

We're slowly approaching the end, so cast your votes if you haven't done it yet, and prepare for the PM election, which will happen soon after this one ends.

Well like, pretty much everything.

How do wars work?
What are we really supposed to do?
Can we trade etc.

I'm just a little confused about the gist of the game.

So, the actual NationStates website doesn’t have real wars, trade, etc. In order to have a war or trade with other nations, you just have to roleplay here on the RMB. The only roleplay thing that the website itself supports is your nation’s stats, which are based on your answers to issues.

Here’s a dispatch explaining how RP in our region works:

Please Note - This dispatch is not updated or currently active. Contact Liruslau in place of Toerana iii with any requests.

How To Get Started
To Get Started in Thalassia, you're going to need some essential things for the roleplay. This will help your roleplay experience, and while may take a little bit of time to set up, depending on how much free time you have, it will enrich your roleplay experience and make roleplay easier and more enjoyable for everyone.

The Map
The Map is the primary part of Thalassia's roleplay, it places everyone in a set geographical location to progress and create interaction between neighbours, friends and allies. Alongside this, it adds a sense of realism, making sure that everyone knows how far away they are from each other and how long it will take to travel places. This can be crucial in times of war, as the map also gives nations geographic features to work with, mountains and rivers, alongside the Ocean in its entirety, allowing key choke points for trade.

The Map is mandatory to partake in wars and Roleplay Events, every member of the regional roleplay must claim some land on the map to partake in these. As the regions gets larger, there is a possibility we will expand the map.
The Map is located here. To claim a section of land for yourself, telegram Toerana iii or Sho with your desired claim. You can do this by telegraming us using this format:

Nation Name:
Desired Capital City Name:
Desired Nation Slot:
Desired Capital Position [Optional]:

Nation Name: Toerana III
Desired Capital City Name: Derai City
Desired Nation Slot: 5
Desired Capital Position [Optional]: N/A

Dispatches & Stats
Dispatches are required to partake in roleplay. The dispatches only have to be short and sweet, but they have to have some required stats in them.
Theses stats are your Military, Population and GDP. You may retrieve these stats by telegramining Czech germania or Toerana iii requesting these stats.
The proper format to collect these stats is as follows:

Hey,

Can I have my roleplay stats for Thalassia?

Thanks
[Name]

You are permitted to update these stats once per week by telegraming either of us to retrieve an update. Only stats inside dispatches are valid, roleplay mods and Culture staff keep a record of all stats. The Dispatch for the stats may be as extravagant as you wish, but must include the 3 stats given to you by the staff. It can be as basic as just those 3 listed. For all other roleplay affairs, it is recommended you specify your skills and stats inside dispatches, although it isn't mandatory. For aspects and areas of RP that aren't given to you, we use NS stats as a guideline, allowing people to differ from there stats a bit but not drastically.

Warning - Military includes the Army, Navy and Airforce, the figure given is the number of soldiers at your disposal, not just ground soldiers.

We recommend Ponderosa's dispatch guides located here for good quality dispatches.

Post Differentiation
For all Roleplay posts, it is required you use the [RP] heading to display it as different from regular posts. Failure to do so will mean your roleplay posts are declared as not valid and you may be punished by roleplay mods.

Alongside this, becoming angry and using all caps lock is not acceptable, and you must remember that any posts made with the [RP] tag are not personal attacks or attempts at flame baits on another user, what happens in roleplay has nothing to do with non RP posts and the regional government.

Rewards Program
The Ministry of Culture and Ministry of Information have worked together to bring the Thalassian Rewards Program. You can read more about it below!

It may seem that we’re not very active roleplayers sometimes, but don’t let that stop you from roleplaying. A lot of people just don’t know how to make a good RP post, so it’s easier for them to respond to others.

Wintreath: Embassy Collaborative Writing

Hello there! Tired of embassies just having invitations and updates? Yup us too. Embassies are pretty boring so we thought we'd use ours for something more. Embassies are also a place of outreach. A place for one region to introduce their community to another region. So why is nobody doing that!? Well, we are and hopefully you will too in the spirit of fun and goodwill towards other regions. That's why Wintreath is sending this out. The rules (and what exactly you're supposed to do) are in the below dispatch so you can read up on how this works as well as what's a no go.

A place for one region to introduce their community to another region. So why is nobody doing that!? Well we are and hopefully you will too in the spirit of fun and good will towards other regions. That's why Wintreath is sending this out.The rules are below so you can read up on how this works as well as what's a no go.

1.) Keep it pg-13.

2.) Maintain common decency. No hate speech, don't disparage mental illness or its patients, don't make it pornographic (while the genre of the story is up to you, it cannot be pornographic....yes we felt this needed to be said twice) and all that other common sense stuff that you already know.

3.) You and every region you send it to needs to include with the post you send to other regions, a chronological list of where your specific story has been so that readers (and yes us as well) can keep track of where it has been and verify that the story hasn't been hijacked or something in order to break the rules. Basically your post should look like this:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.) Wintreath
2.) Your Region

[the rules]

[First paragraph of the story]

[Your region's addition to the story]

Then you send it to another region with your region added to the list who will add to the story and do as you did, and so on.

3a) If You're Forwarding This Via Dispatch]Then do one of the following: mention the nation with the previous dispatch, pin their dispatch in your region, quote their dispatch on your RMB or telegram Club stoic with a chronological list of where your particular version of the story has been, including links to where each part of the story was originally posted.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4.) No story can be sent to a region it has already been. In theory there will be several different stories going around that have been to places another story hasn't. So if Story A has been to Regions 1, 2 and 3 it cannot be sent to those regions again, but if Story B has only been sent to Regions 3, 4, 5, and 6 then it can still be sent to Regions 1 and 2.

5.) The genre(s) is up to you, the writers! Wanna make it a Crime Drama/Occult story? Go ahead! Tech Noir/Fantasy? More power to ya! Sky's the limit!

6.) Who writes your region's addition to the story is up to you. Wanna include the in-game residents of your region instead of just the off-site community? We strongly encourage that. Wanna make a contest out of it? Go ahead and have more fun with it. Make a poll to decide? By all means. Whatever you do just have fun and remember to pay it forward by sending it to any one region you have an embassy with. We cannot stress enough how important it is to send it out to only one region. Otherwise the stories could end up deadlocked amidst absolute chaos during its dispersal.

Go ahead and spoiler the rules and guidelines to save space. Just make sure it's obvious that the rules are there and need to be read so that they may be observed.

Prologue

When I was assigned this case I thought it would be easy and that I would finish it quickly. Just talk to the witness, learn what happened, learn who did it and let Homicide or Commercial Crimes take it off my hands. I expected to be home in time for dinner. What they didn't tell me is that I needed to be a therapist to make any progress. I mean I am a therapist but only because I got a degree online so I could get a raise. I'm not even a decent therapist. I am detective Brock Shepherd and this is my report. I'd started bright and early as usual. Well as bright as it gets in Medford, Oregon. As I passed through the gates of Rogue River Pines Asylum I could tell it was more dreary there than any rainy day could make the town. I flashed my badge, showed the director the warrant and made my way towards patient #67, located in Room #33 of the trauma ward. On the way there the director told me about his preliminary examination, "Mr. Parry Laeddis is in a fragile state right now, sir. What he experienced, the things he saw, the trauma was so great that he can't talk about it cohesively or coherently. If you aren't careful in your questioning he'll just shutdown. I cannot allow you to question him without my supervision." I thought he was overstating it at the time. Coddling the man even. I admit now that I was both careless and insensitive when I first spoke to Parry Laeddis. I walked into the room so arrogant and impatient. At the time I had no idea what kind of damage my brash attitude towards Laeddis would do. Even when I left the room having seen the look in his eyes I didn't regret that first encounter as much as I do now. I don't think that anybody who'd seen and endured so much pain would make it out alive. Looking back I'm not even sure he really did. The following is a transcript of my first line of questioning:

Czech germania

[RP]

Czech Germania reaches out to the government of Maritagnia, seeking to establish a central trade route that will unify all Czech-Maritagnian trade. This trade route will pass south of Terra Pacificus, linking multiple ports on the Czech east coast to any port cities on the Maritagnian west coast.

The trade route will be protected by the Royal Czech Navy, which will establish a belt of warships and small stationary “islands” along the route. This tight security will allow the extremely profitable trade route to remain active even while Maritagnia and/or Czech Germania are at war with other nations or facing other serious political crises, all at the courtesy of the Czech military.

If Maritagnia accepts this offer, the Czech government hopes to use the newly created, unified trade route to allow unlimited safe trade between the large economies of Czech Germania and Maritagnia, boosting both nations’ economic growth.
