P0rtvgal was reclassified from Iron Fist Consumerists to a Psychotic Dictatorship.

WOOHOO WE'RE BACK

Atsuria and Imperial kratos

It seems we've lost a few more individuals. We must especially pay our respects to "Fascist Imperial Remnant" who was a very long-time presence as a person. I think this might even be his first time to CTE during the years I've stayed and played.

P0rtvgal please confirm or clarify.

Other than that I am very pleased to see active posting on the RMB. I intend to give more detailed responses a bit later on to these [and to older ones delayed] once I have sorted out other goals currently in-priority, including a public situation report on quite a few developments recently made.

But don't let your Cancellarius hold you down. Just because I can't keep up with the RMB right now doesn't mean you need to slow down.

Losses in mind P0rtvgal has proposed a new active recruitment drive. Our region has all the potential it needs to draw in interested parties, and I agree we could use some fresh blood. Passive recruitment usually works fine enough by drawing in those with self-activity and self-motivation to find out about us and come here on their own devices (contrasted with us seeking out others), but sometimes it is beneficial for us to give boost to facilitate more of immigration. I believe now is one of those times.

But, having been here for so long I am proud and comfortable in the knowledge of how stable our membership has been overall. Many long-term members, and a plenty of returning old members from time to time coming back to us. Such loyalty is heartwarming in this kind of place we find ourselves in.

Im gonna stop updating you guys on this but this is pure suffering

Atsuria and Imperial kratos

Ladies and Gentlemen. I write to you today in an effort to keep alive the memory of a regime, an ideology and a man who was integral to the national story of the Hellenic motherland. Through this regime and it’s leadership, the nation was reborn as it was reintroduced to the institutions and factors that had empowered it in the first place whilst resisting and opposing threats (both foreign and internal). The regime I am talking about is non other than the “4th of August Regime” of Greece. The man I am talking about is Ioannis Metaxas.

The 4th of August Regime is named a such as it was formed following a “self coup” by Ioannis Metaxas (who was appointed as Prime Minister at the time by King George II) on the 4th of August, 1936. To understand why this was done or why I and many think this was an acceptable route, one must turn to Greek history preluding it’s conception. Greece during this time was an unstable hot mess due to the political instability and radical (sometimes militant) partisanship amongst the various factions in Greece. Following Greece’s defeat during the Greco-Turkish War, the monarchy was ousted in a military coup, creating the Second Hellenic Republic. This republic, however, was very unstable, seeing a total of 23 changes in government along with 13 coups. This, combined with a hung parliament and an increase in popularity for the Communist Party of Greece, would see the Republic in a dire position. That is why, with the King’s blessing, Ioannis Metaxas had launched a self coup creating the dictatorship known as the 4th of August regime.

From this regime would come a miriad of reforms and changes to the governmental doctrine and the national ethos/perception Greece would take. Greece would firmly be defined by “faith, family and nation”. Metaxas aimed to create a new “Third Hellenic Civillisation”, one that took the disciplinary, militaristic virtues of Ancient Macedonia and Sparta (The First Hellenic Civillisation) and the devout faith in religion of the Byzantine Empire (The Second Hellenic Civillisation) to mold this new one. One that would oppose the old, corrupt nature of the previous regime and the degenerate, unholy rhetorics of Communism, Anarchism and Nazism.

His achievements would see him introduce economic reforms such as unemployment insurance, maternity leave, guaranteed 2 week vacation with pay, stricter work safety standards and a 5 day, 40 hour work week. He would normalise relations with the old enemy of Turkey (seeing them ally against the mutual threat of Bulgaria) and see Greece take a more “Allied friendly path”. He would also promote assimilation, integrating groups (such as the Arvanites, Aromanians and Slavophone Greeks) into the larger Greek society whilst deporting those who seeked to harm it by advocating for the independence or partition of regions within the country (namely, the Cham Albanians and Slavo-Macedonians). Most notably, he would lead Greece in World War II against Fascist Italy, delivering the Allies their first military victory against an Axis power.

The conclusion one can take from the legacy of the 4th of August Regime should not be that of a “tyrranical dictatorship only saved by its participation in World War II” as that would be naive. The Metaxas Regime serves as a reminder to all that Greece and any country for that matter can achieve greatness lest it empowers the factors that make said country great. One should not take for granted the religion, culture and history native to a given country, for lest it was to forget these things, it’s identity, sovereignty and roots would become under threat by ideological and foreign movements. We must celebrate this day as a symbol of the importance of the triple factors that arguably make up any given nation: “Family, Faith and Country”. Ζητω ο Μεταχας! Ζητω η 4 Αυγουστου!

Of course,everyone within this region is free to help and contribute to maintaining our population and growing the region! If you know of someone or a group of someone's who you believe would fit in well and might be interested in joining us, let them know of us and our existence! Try to see if you could get them to try out a living here. But please, do not focus such efforts towards any of our embassy- and ally regions. We must carry out ourselves with ethics, and poaching members from our friends is not what I'd consider ethical and respectful conduct.

Any properly carried out efforts to recruit for the Fifth Empire (success or not, but especially with success) will be considered a positive contribution to the Fifth Empire and as such will add + points to your personal record and increase your merit base for future career prospects.

Everyone, i write to you all today about the birthday of the former Iron Confederacy, and how it should be remembered as: one of the greatest fascist Regions to ever live, along with the UFN and many others, those who resided here in TIC are ones of pure icon and significance, because we have gotten to be so damn famous, and so much of a damn threat to the WA Elite and their minions that they had to get rid of me(because i was founder and leader of the former region).

Today is the day we shall remember such a great region, with determination, focus, and sheer will to go forwards as well.

Are there any interested in raiding/defending regions that have been taken over, or raiding those that attack regions like ours?

I think I'm done with NationStates. It's been fun but there's honestly too much going on IRL to bother remembering this game even exists sometimes. It's just gotten boring for the past year or so. I suppose I can try being active from time to time but I very rarely come on anymore. I'm trying to not sound like a dismissive douche (lol) but I quite literally have more important things to do. Sorry.

Do you mean are there any R/D regions that attack us? You betcha. Do you mean are they any regions like ours that have been taken by the forces of evil? You betcha.

The Imperial Brigades is a good place to find the answer to that question! Right now you’re talking to J o J, this is my puppet for the Fifth Empire. I do what I can to fight back through refounding tactics, preemptive region founding, and other means.

All it takes is vigilance and competence. See, the enemy raids and takes over regions, right? They also have to hold onto them by making sure they have an active nation holding the regions, if they fail to maintain that puppet nation for one reason or another, the region CTEs. You can watch for this happening then found the region right after it CTEs to take it over before they have time to do anything about it. This is usually done to regional territories/holdings, where a single puppet nation is left to keep the region from CTEing, usually with a password on it to keep it locked down. If you can catch that puppet CTEing due to the puppet master failing to maintain/log into it, you can refound the region on the next update when it CTEs, allowing one person to take regions that could be highly significant, such as Psomewhere. This was a role play region run by the South Pacific where the only embassy was with TSP, and it only had one nation in it. It was designed so that TSP nations would have a region to role play in without needing to leave the main region, since they could use the embassy posting privilege to chat and vote there from TSP itself. Well, eventually, that one nation they had in the region to keep it from CTEing had not been logged into and so it CTEd, and they forgot the password to enter the region to put a new one in, so it was stuck with 0 nations and was about to CTE. They were going to refound it right after it CTEd and then fix everything but guess who came along to throw a wrench in their plans!

I help with conventional raiding too, usually that’s me helping out allies when they go raid something.

Five(ish) years ago, a great man, in whose symbolic shadow we stand today, founded this wonderful region that we all live in. This momentous act came as a great beacon light of hope to hundreds of nations who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice, and intolerance. It came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of their captivity.

But five years later, the region is not what it was. Five years later, the life of the citizen is still sadly crippled by the manacles of intolerance and the chains of discrimination. Five years later, the region has fallen into a state of disrepair. Five years later, the region is still languished in the corners of NationStates society and finds itself an exile in its own land. And so I've come here today to dramatize a shameful condition.

This region is not what it once was, we are not what we once were.

I have called for reform, and been shot down as a traitor who has called for rebellion, colluded with traitors, in an insurgence against the Imperial Council, damaging the reputation of the Confederation, and disturbing the peace.

In my speech below, can you really say the above is true? Have I in this plea asked for people to rise up against the leaders? Damaged the CCD? Or disturbed the peace?

I have apologized to the parties that I have, unintentionally, insulted, and humbled myself. I have not had a response from most, and I do ask them to, whether to refuse my apology or accept it.

But back to the trial, I can not believe that a fair court could convict me of the charges that were placed before me. I call mistrial on the AWF's part, them interfering and unobjectifying the IC, and the lack of evidence. Nowhere have I called for insurrection, rebellion, or sedition, nor is there proof for my "collusion" with the traitors.

I have no authority, but I wish to submit evidence against the charge of treason, and disloyalty.

The Emperor himself, last time I was in court, said, "No one is accusing your loyalty, it is undeniable, and he was rewarded with Hero of the Confederation Second Class". I was accused of being a fanatic. Now, I am accused of being a traitor. How, in 2 months have I gone from fanatic to traitor? The truth? I have not, I am still as devoted to this region, and that is why I push for reform.

Second, I did not disturb the peace, the Inquisitional Hearing did.

Most agreed with my statement and applauded me on bringing this forth. Even the candidate that the Emperor is pushing for agreed with me. The only conflict came when the Hearing was called. Nothing I did messed with the region.

Third, this can not be a fair court without evidence, and there is no evidence for a collision with the AWF. I abhor the AWF, they are a bunch of traitors (With a few exceptions, the world is not black and white) and that has always been my stance.

Finally, "Damages against the reputation of the Confederation". If anything, a reform would boost the CCD. The regions that I have talked to say they want the CCD to reform, but otherwise they are an amazing region. This is unfounded and without evidence.

Outside of the trial, the RMB act "declares the Confederation's Regional Message Board (RMB) is to be respected as a sanctuary of political and intellectual discussion;" what is my plea but intellectual discussion? It is the purpose that this region was made, my statements should not have been suppressed.

I urge you all, to think critically, both IRL and in NS.

Have I done what the accusations say I have? Have I hurt the Confederation? Am I blind, and naught but a scourge upon this region?

If so, I will leave you, and not return unless you wish, but I beg of you to think this through.

I foresee a dying region, one that slowly yields to the WA Elite, one that loses its most loyal members, one that dies a slow and painful death.

I ask you all to heed my warning and help turn us from this path. I want this region to survive more than I want to be proven right.

I am not the best spoken of people, I am not a leader, and I may not be a reformist, but I ask those who are to think and help this region not only survive, but thrive.

But let us not wallow in the valley of despair, I say to you today, my friends.

And so even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the Confederation dream.

I have a dream that one day in the NS forum liberals and conservatives will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood.

I have a dream that one day even the North Pacific, a region sweltering with the heat of injustice, sweltering with the heat of oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice.

I have a dream today!

I have a dream that one day, the Confederation will be able to fix the problems and help others do the same.

I have a dream today!

This is our hope, and this is the faith that I leave with.

With this faith, I will be able to continue despite my rejection. With this faith, we will be able to work together, to struggle together, to stand up for freedom together, knowing that we will be free one day.

And if the Confederation of Corrupt Dictators is to be a great region, this must become true.

And with one more word, I ask you all, whether you agree, or disagree with me, to TG me, with questions, or just to yell at me, I am open to your response.

Hail the Confederation!

The cumbrian state

It is alleviating to witness all is stable upon my return. Whatever the situation, the machine that is the triumvirate consisting of the IGA; HIGHCOM and the Imperial Brigades shall never falter.

I shall be working to enhance the spirit of the region to even greater proportions. The Emperor and Cancellarius' vision of a grand society must be worked towards by us all.

Hello comrades, it is not the first time that I play this game, but I haven't played in a long time, in the past I had a liberal nation and, as my mind changed over time, I developed a growing hatred for this type of ideology, so I left that nation. I saw this region and thought it was perfect for my kind of thinking, as a radical clericalist, it would be more than perfect for me to move here, I hope

You need get a maximum number of population to do it. Perhaps, if I remember is 100k
