Post

As Co-Culture Minister alongside Libertas Omnium Maximus, I would like to highlight some exciting and interesting things that are ongoing in our beloved IDU. The reason for posting these is to encourage fellow nations who have an interest in participating on the forums, in some capacity or another. It would be great to see more involvement from our awesome community!

1. Truth and Reconciliation Commission: https://theidu.us/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=1910

An entertaining and highly detailed "Truth and Reconciliation Commission" underway and nearing a conclusion, following the RP of the Second Lauchenoirian Civil War last summer. The TRC Trials are the processes of hearing testimonies and sentences for people charged with war crimes during the conflict, and it provides a unique insight into legalistic and judicial systems in the IDU. This particular RP is limited to the nations who were directly involved in the war, however (I.E.: Zamastan cannot participate), but it is nonetheless a source of intrigue to watch unfold. For anyone interested in judicial aspects of nationbuilding, this RP is a great point of inspiration.

Key Members: Lauchenoiria, Sanctaria, Laeral, Kvask, Libertas Omnium Maximus.

2. The IDU Newswire: https://theidu.us/forum/viewforum.php?f=13

The site of individual nation's newspapers and updates, this section is one of my personal favorites. Here, you can see the most recent stories coming from nations regarding a variety of topics, domestic and international. Recently, new additions in the forms of political transcripts and the insights of world leaders can be read through to get a sense of the diversity on display in the IDU's individualistic forms of writing. A nation that I would like to commend for their work in this arena is Xiomera. Fresh and new to the IDU, he has utilized this section of the forum to craft a unique story for one of the most interesting plots I've seen in this region in a long time. I won't give anything away - it's definitely worth a read!

Key Members (there are many entries, but these are the nations who have most recently posted): Lauchenoiria, Xiomera, Zamastan, Kerlile, Kvask, Christos, Sanctaria, Gardavasque, Cadair, Shuell.

3. All Quiet on the Western Front: https://theidu.us/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=1982

The intricate new RP, set over two decades ago in 1991, in the region of Bjeorg, Libertas Omnium Maximus, a rebellion is brewing. This is bound to be a detailed, fervent event, and it has only just begun. Started by fellow co-culture minister, LOM, there is interesting potential to be looking forward to in this RP as it unfolds. Stay tuned, and feel free to read through the developments thus far!

4. The IDU Wiki: https://www.theidu.us/wiki/Main_Page

I have put an almost embarrassing amount of time into this unique section of our region's foundation. Created and managed by Sanctaria, he has gifted a unique system that allows for quantities of information to be linked to each other's nations effectively and efficiently. This is just the same as Wikipedia - only for the IDU. Several hundred pages on various insights of our region's inter-workings exist here, such as national info, character names, geographical locations, and more! Take a trip over to the IDU Wiki and experience the creativity our region has to offer! Hint - not sure what to read first? Click the 'Random Page' button, and you'll land on a unique page!
