"There shall be a Secretary of Recruitment, who shall be responsible for recruiting and attracting new and suitable nations to the region, welcoming new nations, facilitating their assimilation into the region and ensuring their progression; and promoting the happiness, well-being, and harmony of member nations."
More information can be found in the dispatch below. It mentions that there is a team, but currently there is only Ainslie who may be an active member. The most important thing to do is to send out recruitment telegrams so that nations visit our region; many of them will only stay for a short while but some may become active and valued residents. Apart from those telegrams, your task would involve any of the other things listed if you have the time and energy to do them, but most of those (e.g. showing new nations where they can find the map and how they can engage in role-play) are usually done by random resident nations.

Dude I dunno why I keep saying this mistake lol
Welcome! We have some imperialist nations in our community, but as for role-play, it depends on what you want to do with it. Our role-play is based on our map (see below); there is some canon that you can join, but otherwise you are rather free to shape your nation as you like. We'd like to know more about it though, so the creation of factbooks is encouraged, knowing that NS statistics (e.g. the ridiculous population size) don't apply if you want to get a place on the map. The map is said to be on earth, but relations with real earth countries cannot be too recent: e.g. you can be colonised by existing nations up to around WW2, but in role-play (the year is 2021) we ignore the rest of the world.

THE WESTERN ISLES MAP DISPATCH
The nation which you join the map with should be a member of the World Assembly.
You must have a name that is realistic. If you were to put it in a list of nations on Earth, it should not seem out of place or strange compared to them. However, this does not mean that you are allowed to have the same name as a real life country on Earth or something extremely similar.
You are only allowed one nation on the map. No puppets are allowed.
You must have at least one factbook about your nation that proves that you are going to actively engage and develop your nation in-character
You must post anywhere on the
NationStates forums. This means anywhere across the site that you are allowed to post on. Do not post on threads marked (IC) or [IC] or places where you otherwise would not be welcome.If you lodge a map application and do not log in for a while afterwards, you may not be added to the map.
If you are on the map, you must either significantly edit a dispatch or factbook or post in an [IC]/(IC) or [OOC]/(OOC) forum that exclusively involves nations on the map pictured above. If you do not do this at least once every fourteen days, you may be removed from the map and will need to resubmit a map request in order to be placed back on.
Our region reserves the right to refuse map applications from players or puppets of players who is an officer or holds a position in the regional government of another region on this website. However, in some circumstances, discretion may be used in order to allow people who fall into this category to join the map.
For more rules, please refer to this dispatch.

The Western Isles, like many regions, exists in its own separate reality or plane of existence in order for members to reconcile their own histories with each other. We are Earth-based humans with Earth weapons and Earth culture, although we do not exist on the map of Earth itself. Although Earth's countries exist in our reality, we do not typically interact with them nor do they interact with us; we almost exclusively interact with only the nations in our region.
The Western Isles is very roughly 7000 miles long and 4000 miles wide (10 km by 10 km per pixel). We exist in a northern hemisphere, with the nations at the north typically experiencing colder climates and the nations at the south typically experiencing equatorial climates. If it helps, you can picture our map as being the area between Japan, the western American coast, the Aleutian islands, and Hawaii, although we do not actually exist in that realm. Nations are given free reign to decide their inner geography, so long as it does not bend too deep into unrealistic territory. Similarly, nations may decide their own resources or lack thereof, so long as it is kept reasonable and realistic. We are modern time, specifically current time, meaning that the real-life calendar day is the same as our role-play day.
The central island is named Argus; the large island to the northeast of Argus is called Gael. The island to the west of Argus is called Raedlon.
What are they?
Bold territories are those little areas on the map circled or marked by black borders - their names are typically smaller and emboldened. They are portions of the map which are set aside with the sole purpose of being hubs for activity - not for the mere sake of having more land or getting something that you want. Rather, these are made normally to facilitate some sort of in character role-play. There are generally two types of bold territories - the larger, older and more traditional ones devoted to role-plays that are typically only overseen by one or two people. There is then the second category which is smaller and newer islands which are typically made with the view of having them change hands in character relatively quickly and are designed to be a proxy for wider tensions - whether this be diplomatic, economic or even in the sense of armed conflict.
In order to apply to get responsibility to out of character manage a bold territory not listed below, you should create a factbook and then post a link to it in this thread and talk about your intentions for the territory. If approved, you may then be considered as overseeing the territory.
Which ones exist, and what are they like?
Iersheno (Dispatch) | IC Disputed | OOC Managed by Kravato
Qualities: Militarised | Disputed | Tourist Mecca
Backstory: An area first settled by Vacrusians, it has become a contested territory both politically and ethnically. Conflict is a well established part of its history, though only recently a longstanding peace has been broken by increased hostility by both Vacrus and Kravato. Placed on an important trade route and strategically important location on the western side of South Argus, the island is a flashpoint that is only just starting to awaken yet again.

Romancia (Read Dispatch) | IC governed by independent government | OOC Managed by Baumes
Disputed | War-torn | Militarised
Backstory: Since their arrival to Baumes, the Romancians have constantly been bullied and harassed by the Baumish. Eventually, they founded the Kingdom of Romancia, but it won't be long until they were colonized by the Doraltics, and later the Baumish. But they've had enough. And after a long and bloody civil war, Romancia has finally succeeded in independence. Now war-torn and destroyed, Romancia must now rebuild itself and forge a new future.

Charbagnia (Read Dispatch) | IC Governed by an independent democratic government | OOC Managed by Dormill and Stiura
Qualities: Tax Haven | Tourist Mecca | Diplomatically Isolated | Multiethnic
Backstory: Caught between the imperial ambitions of nations both foreign and native to the Western Isles, Charbagnia is in some ways a multiethnic paradise and a tribute to tolerance and equality. However, decades of political mismanagement and international strife has constantly reopened the wounds of ethnic and sectarian conflict, preventing Charbagnia from fully healing and becoming a beacon for liberty and human rights in the Southern Sea. Now faced with a growing threat of terrorism armed with the weapons of a very recent war, a powder keg has been set under the Charbagnian nation, and it is up to the nations of the Southern Sea and beyond to band together and relieve the pressure, or else condemn them all to a new age of strife and death.

Faronna Islands (Dispatch not available) | IC occupied territory of Balnik | OOC Managed by Balnik
Qualities: Remote | Developing | Fascist | Sparsely inhabited
Backstory: The Faronna Islands were two Islands that were shared between Balnik and Roendavar under the 1983 Faronna Islands agreement that set the islands to be used as a nature reserve. The treaty expired and was not renewed. In 2019 surveys reported that the islands had an abundance of fossil fuels and was rich in resources. In 2020, faced with an imminent energy crisis, Balnik annexed the islands and began exploiting the islands and its resources

Keverai (Read Dispatch) | IC Governed by an independent democratic government | OOC Managed by Ainslie
Qualities: Unequal | Unsettled | Capitalised Paradise | Crime Den
Backstory: Ever since its colonisation, Keverai has been an outward looking place - seeking to absorb the prosperity and the vibrancy that comes with a multicultural experience. This has exposed it to external problems such as war, social and income inequality, and large organised crime operations within the nation. Many of these conditions were made possible through the deregulation of the economy and the flow through effects it would have. Keverai’s first truly democratic government has had a lacklustre response to these which have very much fallen short of expectations. Now, the nation is completely exposed to the risk of disaster or further instability exacerbating the existing inequality and unrest.

Norregan (Read Dispatch) | IC Governed by an independent democratic government | OOC Managed by Roendavar
Qualities: Isolationist | Absolutist | Traditionalist | Conservative
Backstory: The Norregan people came to the Wake Islands and settled around the Stakerenea Islands as early as 1000 BCE. There have been several theories of how they got there, the most plausible one being that the Norregan people are a sea-faring people from Argus. The Norregan eventually settled into small tribal communities, relying on fishing for much of their food. Around the 1600s, trade finally came to the islands from nearby Raedlon. As the world descended into wars for control, the people of Norregan began to become wary of their survival, especially as they saw the Sud and Atolla fall to foreign influence. In 1729, a tribal chieftain known as Ilinakara’Toatou Falakira, also known to the Norregan people as the Uniter (Karana), united the Stakerenea Islands, through the Gray War. The Ilinakara family would soon rule Norregan from then on as absolute monarchs, pursuing a traditional and isolationist policy and remaining guarded against the outside world. However, after the storm of 2021 that left the Wake Islands devastated, current Queen Ilinakara'Falini Okilanoa, has decided to loosen the nation's economic policies and has allowed increased foreign investment, albeit, under her severe absolute watch.

Sud (Read Dispatch) | IC Governed by an independent democratic government | OOC Managed by Solaryia
Qualities: Backwater | Developing | Enterprising | Unequal
Backstory: A confident democracy with a charismatic but politically-minded leader, Sud has long considered itself as the success story of the three Wake Island chains. Whilst it suffered to an extent from a stormfront which battered Atolla and Norregan, the disaster exposed the existing inequalities in Sudite society. Sud is the most open of the three nations, relying on international backing to maintain its confidence as an important middlepower within the Raedlon subregion. However, the reality for the Sudites is that the social issues which haunt them remain very prevalent and the same politcking that occurs in Norregan and Atolla is just as rife here.

Atolla (Read Dispatch) | IC Governed by an independent democratic government | OOC Managed by Alteran Republics
Qualities: Liberal Conservative | Meritocratic | Democratic | Fledgling Capitalist | Altera Dependent
Backstory: Since first being 'discovered' by the fledgling Alteran Republics in the 1460's, the island nation would soon become a keystone in the formation of the Alteran Commonwealth several centuries later. Battered by regular storms and harsh weather, the island inhabitants of Atolla grew to become a hardy and resilient people. Combined with imported traits and a thirst for mercantilism, the Atollan people would become an island of shopkeepers, establishing strong trade links with its neighbours in Raedlon. For whatever reason, whether thanks to subtle social or economic changes, Atolla never truly blossomed as an island nation and would remain strongly dependent on its Alteran colonial masters. However, thanks to continued investment and a brief flirt with independence; Atolla formally gained independence in 2016 after a slim referendum victory. Despite this, the nation stands at a crossroads - do they use their new independence to cut off colonial ties and seek their own glory - or acknowledge their allies and seek the safety and comfort of a like-minded friend?

Sunset Isle (Read Dispatch) | IC by uncontacted, hostile tribes | OOC Managed by Martenyika
Qualities: Wild | Tribal | Biodiverse | Resource-rich
Backstory: Originally a disputed territory, the Sunset Isle never attracted much attention due to its apparent lack of relevant natural resources and to the extreme hostility of its native tribe, the Akari. The situation quickly changed when a team of illegal researchers discovered massive deposits of highly valuable resources on the island in 2021. This led to a military standout between Laeden and Martenyika that nearly evolved into a full scale armed conflict. Thankfully, both nations agreed to discuss the matter in an arbitration court, who ruled that the Akari and their traditional island should be respected and that foreigners should not approach or land there under any circumstance.

Sawneeak Atoll (Read Dispatch) | IC disputed | OOC Managed by Najimam
Qualities: Archipelago | Contested | Tranquil
Backstory: Ever since the late 14th century, the archipelago has been the site of several territorial claims and disputed. Initially a territory of the Kingdom of Tesselia in Ainslie, it was later sold to Uprea and over time, became colonised be several other states which often come and go. Today, Sawneeak Atoll is still largely disputed and borders are often still unofficial. However, it is clear that the area will continue to grow and the future of the archipelago is in the hands of the ruling governments.

On the 29th of December 2020, Refugia published a statement regarding unacceptable OOC issues in the region and its discord server. The Statement triggered an event called "The December Crisis" in the region of India. The December Crisis resulted in a tremendous fall in India's reputation and the region lost a bunch of important embassies including 10000 Islands, Thaecia and The East Pacific. The events got India blacklisted and banned in various regions and organisations. The region suffered great losses and isolation from the rest of the NSGP. Meanwhile, in the internal regional matters, the region faced a lot of changes including a new election system, military, constitutional reforms and establishment of OOC and IC Moderation Teams. The region believes that they are fit for another fresh start from what happened in December. The regional administration has started to find ways to re-establish the lost embassies and pride. The Military Unit called "Indian Armed Forces" has resumed training and looks forward to being part of defender/liberation missions. The region has introduced better moderation, administration systems to make things easier for the players than before. The Founder's Office has started API Recruitment for the region which is happening at an average recruitment rate.
Even though the changes are getting implemented, the region is finding it hard to retrieve its lost pride. The region has positioned its population on a stagnant scale of 135s - 150s just like how it was years ago (Then, the 60s - 70s). President Hindu puri with the founder has decided to stop putting allegations on the region of Refugia and start a journey to a new and better future. All Allegations against Refugia regarding the "December Crisis" would be dropped as part of this change. The region is currently undergoing a roleplay convention to improve the roleplay rules.
In the month of August, the Embassy Oversight Commission headed by the external affairs minister decided to review the embassies and sort them as "Active - Keep", "Drop" and "Consulate". The Active or Keep regions would be the regions that are active and close to the region (Mutually Beneficial) whose embassies would be kept intact. The Drop regions are inactive and those who don't keep connections with the region. The Drop region's embassies would be closed down. The Region's that were on the Drop segment or lying between both the categories was termed as Consulate and would be maintained as diplomatic entities without In-Game Embassy. The review was done and a report was submitted to the minister of external affairs, who later presented the report in the regional cabinet. After the External Affairs Minister got a green flag, he published a circular and got it sent to all the embassies via the diplomats assigned. At the end of August month, the circular was put into effect. Twenty-Two embassies were closed which reduced the embassy count from fifty-eight to thirty-six.
The region after the closure of embassies has started to re-establish lost relations and find new embassy partners who would be mutually beneficial. The external affairs ministry has also started to sort and appoint new diplomats to the existing embassy partners.
In the month of July, The Presiden of India and His Majesty William V of the Empire of Great Britain officially signed a treaty to empower cooperation between the regions. The Treatise was called The Treaty of Buckingham and was made into effect after India's state visit to EoGB was completed. The treaty ensures cultural, military as well as World Assembly Cooperation between the regions. The Treaty was presented by Rt. Hon. Sir James Wellesley-Forsyte, MP for York Central (James Forsyte II) and supported by Hon. Anish Reddy, MP for Mount Albert ( Fort tech). The treaty is as follows:
BE IT ENACTED by the King's most Excellent Majesty, by and with the advice and consent of the House of Lords, and the House of Commons, in this present Parliament assembled, and by the authority of the same, as follows:-

(2) To the extent practicable, India and the Empire of Great Britain shall provide the other defensive military assistance in case of an attack by an aggressor. Under no circumstance will either Signatory give direct or indirect aid to the aggressor.
(3) India and the Empire of Great Britain shall not cede sovereign control over their respective military forces to any supraregional alliance.

(4) India and the Empire of Great Britain shall aid each other in Delegacy transferrals when requested.

(2) The Signatories each shall provide information to the other if such information is pertinent to the other region's security or well-being, or otherwise upon the other's reasonable request unless the party in possession of such information reasonably believes that providing that information might violate applicable laws or contravene the terms of service for NationStates or a regional communications platform, or when revealing that information would unduly compromise that party's source(s) of information. Both signatories shall endeavour to reveal as much as possible in such situations, but not more than they can under laws, terms of service, or the need to protect sources.
(3) Each Signatory will make it a violation of its internal laws to engage in espionage against the other if a similar or related law to the same effect does not already exist. To the extent permitted by each region's laws, this section shall be deemed self-executing.

(2) Each signatory affirms its commitment to guarantee the right to freedom of peaceful assembly and freedom of association with others.
(3) Each signatory affirms its commitment to guarantee equal protection and equal benefit of the law without discrimination on any ground including sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, race, colour, language, religion, political or other opinions, national or social origin, property, birth, or another status.
Article X: General Provisions
(1) This Treaty will come into force on the date of ratification by both Empire of Great Britain and India as dictated by their respective governing procedures.
(2) Either Signatory reserves the right to exit this Treaty. The exiting Signatory must make reasonable efforts to notify the other as soon as possible. This shall include a diplomatic meeting between the heads of the respective governments prior to any withdrawal/exit action.
(3) This agreement may be amended by mutual agreement of both Signatories.
(4) Upon ratification, this treaty shall be the sole bilateral treaty between India and the Empire of Great Britain, superseding any prior written documents describing a relationship between the regions.

India, officially the Republic of India (Bhārat Gaṇarājya), is a country in South Asia. It is the seventh-largest country by area, the second-most populous country, and the most populous democracy in the world. Bounded by the Indian Ocean on the south, the Arabian Sea on the southwest, and the Bay of Bengal on the southeast, it shares land borders with Pakistan to the west; China, Nepal, and Bhutan to the north; and Bangladesh and Myanmar to the east. In the Indian Ocean, India neighbours Sri Lanka and the Maldives; India's Andaman and Nicobar Islands share a maritime border with Thailand, Myanmar and Indonesia. India is a federal parliamentary democratic republic headed by the President and Prime Minister. India gained independence from the British on August 15th 1947. India is divided into 28 States [From Andhra Pradesh to West Bengal] and 8 Union Territories [Andaman & Nicobar Islands to Puducherry].
In this series, we would go through every administrative division of India and learn about their culture and wonders. The first one on the list is Andhra Pradesh.
Andhra Pradesh is the seventh-largest state in the republic of India. The State Language is Telugu, State Animal is the Blackbuck, The State Dance is Kuchipudi and the State Fruit is Mango. The State has recognised Kabbadi as their state sport. Andhra Pradesh was primarily formed on the 1st of November 1956 as the first state of India. It was later divided into the states of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh. Andhra Pradesh is home to various dance forms, religious attractions, dams, rivers and other tourist attractions. The Chair of Government of Andhra Pradesh is situated in the capital territory of Amaravati.
There are various attractions in Andhra Pradesh, the notable on them are those given below
Kuchipudi: It's one of the eight major Indian classical dances. It originated in a village named Kuchipudi in the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh. Kuchipudi is a vibrant visual experience and is said to be the pride of Andhra Pradesh.
