If you don't insult them or their mother, are you even trying to welcome someone?

I was being serious.

I know how I'm gonna write about my culture: religion and the transformation from tribal religion to catholicism and then to the church of Jeriga. The formation of a national identity will hinge on this.

Loxodon launches communications satellite

Le blog de la République
La République de Loxodon (The Republic of Loxodon)

Earlier today at 6:44am, Loxodonian astronauts prepared for the first Loxodonian spaceflight in 10 years. The rocket's objective was to launch into space, release the comms sat into orbit and fly back to the planet. It is reported that the 3 astronauts manning the space rocket were more than ecstatic to do their job.

At around 10:49am, the rocket began launch, reaching for the skies as if it were a plane. Around 8 minutes into the flight, the astronauts had left the atmosphere, preparing their maneuverers for orbit. Orbit was achived with little fuel to spare, reportingly from the astronauts, the tanks were practically empty as the burns ended. The Probe was deposited, activated, and checked out. The initial job was done. The rocket decoupled it's orbital stage and began burns for re-entry. The astronaut capsule landed on the southern pole, floating slowly to the land. All astronauts were recovered successfully.

Our reporters got a few quotes from the mission leader and rocket captain Gerald Kerry. "As much as you'd think us astronauts would be all normal about entering space, we're not. I'm still excited from being weightless, almost like everything was just... let go".

This post will address how to post news.

It is very important that we present our region in a positive, professional, and respectable light. For this reason, all news accounts must be posted with a high standard, with few grammar/spelling/formatting errors.

This is the format that some of us use:

Date
Name of News Organization
Nation or Location of News

Optional Title

Actual Text of Article


Some examples of things you can post about:

Something happens to nation leaders
Something happens to nation companies
Something newsworthy happens in your nation
Something happens in the region and your nation comments on it

Remember, always establish who, what, where, when, and why. Feel free to be a bit biased towards your nation, unless your media itself is for some reason strongly unpatriotic.

Okay that's all you need to know to start posting!

Here is the news thread: news thread

Arpasia

The Democratic Federation of Arpasia commonly called Arpasia, is a transcontinential country spanning Eastern Altropia and several overseas territories in the Central Tethys Ocean. Its metropolitan area spans from the Western Arch Mountains to the Atlasian Ocean and from the Dorshire Strait and the Thule Sea to Champlain Lake which is where Arpasia shares maritime boundaries with Aldonia, Lisperia and Grusnia; overseas territories include Nouvelle Phelipeaux et Saint-Pierre in the Barrow Sea near North Occidentia, îles-Madame-Croix in the central Tethys Ocean, the Ta'anga Islands and Tortuga Atoll in the western Tethys Ocean. Due to these several coastal territories, Arpasia has the 4th largest Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) in the world. Arpasia borders Aldonia, Duzlant, Gallais, Grusnia, Lisperia, Montegarre as well as maritime borders with Eilea and Esterland. Arpasia has an estimated population of 13,420,045 Arpasia comprises of 13 Regions span an area of NUMBER square kilometers . The Territory of Arpasia extends from île du Mons in the north, near Gallais, to the Oignon Coast which borders Lisperia and Grusnia

Inhabited by since the Palaeolithic era, Arpasia was settled by the Canto-Altropian Tribes, also known as the Arps from Eilea and Esterland during the Iron Age. The Albian Empire came and annexed the area, turning it into one of it's provinces in 67 BB, leading to a distinct Arpano-Albian culture which laid the foundation of the Arpasian Language.

History

Prehistory


A cave painting in the region of Piquellon, approximately 7100 BB.
Depicting Arpasia's national animal, the Bull.

The oldest traces of human life in what is now Arpasia date from approximately 7 million years ago. Over the ensuing millennia, humans were confronted by a harsh and variable climate, marked by several glacial periods. Early hominids led a nomadic hunter-gatherer life. Arpasia has a large number of decorated caves from the Late Stone Age era, including one of the best preserved, South Levant Cave (approximately 17,400 BB). At the end of the last glacial period (10,000 BB), the climate became milder; from approximately 7,000 BB, this part of Eastern Altropia entered the Neolithic era and its inhabitants became sedentary.

After strong demographic and agricultural development between the 4th and 3rd millennia, metallurgy appeared at the end of the 3rd millennium, initially working gold, copper and bronze, as well as later iron. Arpasia has numerous megalithic sites from the Neolithic period, particularly, the large Guerne Megalith site (approximately 3,300 BB).

Antiquity

The Albian Empire conquered and settled the area and turned it into the province of Magna Arpea.

In the 830s to late 860s AB, the first Arpandic city states were formed, notably, Galnony (Modern day Galatine), Porgonia (Modern day Pontchartrain) and The Gaurian Coast State, the oldest among these are Galnony, on the northern shores of the Straits of Mons makes Galatine as Arpasia's oldest city. At the same time, Erídan explorers are just beginning to map out the areas around the Karnali Sea and Straits of Mons, Esterish influence in Arpasia came in the form of Assimilated Esterine settlers, notably, exiled government nobles and explorers on foot. Which was when a new power came in, the Arps. The Arps were a semi nomadic tribe, thought to originate from the eastern shores of Champlain Lake and Kaprava Mountains of northern Grusnia.


Theorized Border of the Arpian Empire

The Arps succeeded in conquering Galnony, Storland and Faul, by around 890-910 AD, the Arpian Empire has controlled 26.9% of Modern day Arpasia, in 920 AD, the Arpian Empire, who has just built up their naval power, begun to settle the Coastal islands surrounding the Mons Strait coast, mainly, Corvus (Modern day Circas). The most notable and famous ruler of Arpia is Emperor Thilius I, born in a wealthy family in Vistoc (Modern day Stockdenz) in former Storland, Thilius in his early ages was a very skilled horse rider, with hopes of one day becoming a soldier.

At the age of 41, Thilius took the throne, labeling himself as The Peaceful Conqueror. The origin of this mantle is quite controversial, as there is many theorized sources for this name, the most widely accepted theory is his negotiation tactics, where he offered the Duchy of Porgonia 2500 tons of gold, if they join his empire, he did the same thing with the West Karnali Coast state as well as several other city states in the Region of Corivia. After the death of Thilius I, his son, Thilius II took the throne, Thilius II was a weak emperor. The time of his reign was named as The Troublesome Times, due to the fact that he was not educated enough to rule.

Thilius II's rule only lasted for 9 Months, while his heir and family fled to the shadows, this marked the beginning of the Foix Dynasty. At this time, the current ruler of the Arpian Empire is King Foix I, Foix I was a fair king, liberating surfs and giving a portion of the Empire's treasury to the people of Arpia. Foix I's rule lasted for 6 years, after his assassination, Foix II took the throne, around his time of rule is when Arpian explorers made contact with Afrea.

Foix II's rule was the first Arpano-Duzian dynasty that took rule

During the Huangguo-Tsepang war in 1929, Arpasia sent 800,000 troops to back up the Huangguo Republican Army, and the 5th and 6th Naval fleet to patrol the Changdu Sea and areas near the Haruka Island Chain in southern Tsepang. The soldiers contributed in several Republican gains in the eastern Jianghai region near the border with Slavania. By 1931, after several Tsepangese victories and allied losses, Arpasia pulls out of the war, leading to the capitulation of the Republic of Huangguo.
