You shouldn't have.


I have now been spooked.

Nobody owns the North Pole, right?

If you mean the Greenland version, then yes it is owned. Otherwise if you meant the north as a whole including the ocean and ice, then no not really.

Jens then sighed. "Well... it's time to address the word." He walked outside, where several press team had assembled. Then, looking at the cameras, he cleared his throat before speaking. "Greetings, nations of the New World! I am Jens Solberg, the acting president of the new Nordic Union. We are the nation that will become what the Old World's Scandinavian nations dreamed of. A superpower amongst the world. I hope to, assuming I will win the upcoming election for our first president, lead this country and help lead the world into a new golden age, even greater then before the war!" The press teams applauded. "We are a new nation, and I am certain our fair share of hard times are ahead. However, we will triumph time and time again, with the hardiness of the land we inhabit and those people who inhabited it! Scandinavia will be a true great nation, that will stand the test of time!" The message would be carried out, with (assumedly) many news stations on both TV and Radio carrying it, with it making headlines around the planet. Jens walked back inside the building to thunderous applause. People were already working overtime on cleaning and fixing the old building's many flaws. Sitting down at his desk, he called Aaron Carlsson. "Aaron, have the bases and cities across the Union been occupied?"
"Yes, Mr. President, and the deployment of the Svalbard vehicles is underway."


"Good to hear, begin deploying to secondary targets."


"Yes, Mr. President."


"Oh, and Aaron. Cut the formalities, I've known you for many years."


"Alright, Jens, if you wish."


With that order, the Nordic Military, now with the Svalbard APCs, began to occupy power plants and other infrastructure and industrial sites. This occupation would, of course, be temporary. Svalbard was attached with a garrison to protect the valuable food there. Old Coastal artillery pieces were also in the process of being taken to the island. Across the nation, recruitment posters began to go up, seeking to grow the Army to a size appropriate for a nation.

[Last part seems a bit sketchy but I won't complain.].


Also don't know why you tagged me. I don't have radio communications that go past the area of northern Russia I know, and doesn't go past Moscow - Eclipse.

I just tagged everyone.

Fair enough lol.

Also @Lordvader59 I forgot to tag you, but that event in the Random Events applies to you to

Alright.

 

[Alteras]

@Charlie12520 Don't forget about my invite to an African debate.

 

[Clockwork_Magic]

@RIPSaidCone The people have voted for you to be the next World Congress Host.


Votes are now closing.

@Charlie12520 What i do is the Random Events for around the world that affect everyone in a way. If the war in the north continues much of the world could be engulfed in war, if the Golden Dawn Republic takes over Eclipsian Europe then Fascism will take once again have a foothold, and the Summaist movement affects EVERYBODY! Basically think of it as the Equalist movement in Legend of Korra, but only on a much wider scale. Speaking of which, the Summaist movement is in your country, so in that little post of yours should include them as well. Now i do congratulate you on being first to the moon, but it seemed like that came out of nowhere? Now it might be because the World Congress made me forget a lot of what happened prior to it, but that whole colonization thing seems a little to far fetch right now. If i haven't done it yet, then most people (except the Order Empire since we're pretty much on par) should not be at the same progress.

 

[Lordvader59]

that whole movement cant really effect me up because I don't have any government for a party to be in.

 

[Space_Kaiser]

that whole movement cant really effect me up because I don't have any government for a party to be in.

Even so, it can still influence the people inside your lands. Like i said they can be Parties or Organizations for a reason, to cover all bases. Parties for governments with them and Organizations for countries that don't have them.

 

[Clockwork_Magic]

Now that you mention it, I'm noticing the lack of elections in democratic countries.

It was in my overview for at least 12 pages of posts - i.e. a year. If you took a closer look at it, it would've been obvious that this was a project long in the making. Also, this was just an overview of the things that happened, and took some time for me to make. I will update the nation on the Summaist movement @Loyal Guardian and the African meeting soon @Alteras. Again, I'm not ignoring the Summaist movement - these are things I need to get to during my free time, which I haven't had in quite a while.


I am curious, however, on how your stability could possibly be positive, as well as your happiness. I understand that the Greeks are rebelling, but perhaps you should update it? The mechanic is designed to realistically limit the size of countries.

Okay, then i apologize. Like i said the World Congress gave me amnesia so i apologize for that. As for stability and Pop Happiness, those are correct. I haven't really changed much, the only thing that has changed is Greece. I know Pop Happiness seems very high, but i just be following what the mechanic says, same with Stability.

 

[Albion]

hang on a sec, i just realized i was having a meeting with the cascadians. huh.

 

[CabalAnomicPotato]

can I join?

 

[Clockwork_Magic]

It was noon, mayhaps. Thousands of people gathered by their TVs and watched the Vice Prime Minister address the auditorium.
"There has been recent growth in a movement for a unified world government that has been gaining support. Many countries are suppressing these people, but I say that that is an infringement upon the basic rights that we still hold from the Americans who colonized one of our first union members, the Republic of Liberia. The Liberian Republic is one of the relics of America - along with the Cascadians - and is believed to be one of the most free lands, and we still hold all freedoms from them in our constitution. So, I say, why suppress people over their ideology? The Central African Federation will allow this party to join our Parliament. After all, the Central African Federation is perhaps the most free nation on this earth." The Speech is met by cheers from much of the population of the country (who can afford TVs) bar the Fascist supporters and Communists.


Also of note, the CAF have recieved a broadcast from the Nordic Union and have requested to talk for a trade agreement. In other news, the downsizing and upgrading of the military is moving steadily and a new material - Africum, as it is being deemed by CAf scientists - has been found. It appears to be an excellent source of energy, with one kilo being about 1 gigawatt. However, it appears that the material is rather deep and hard to mine due to the proximity to the bedrock.

I don't think a country would publicly state that they are suppressing the parties/organizations, I think they would be more covert with that. I think the only one taking radical action would be the Autocratic Redline Empire and they don't really seem like the ones to be, errr, all that social to put it as nicely as I can. I just wanted to point this out, 'tis all.

by all means! find a spot on the map and claim your place! Germany just opened up.

elections occur every 5 years for me.

 

[Lordvader59]

I have a friend of mine lined up to potentially take Germany.

 

[Clockwork_Magic]

I think the spaces for Austria and Hungary are still unclaimed.

Spoiler

The empire and it's other governments aren't "bad" though. Most of them only contain insane generals or leaders, while people like the gallian empire are entirely peaceful unless you attack them. Lol.


The anti social thing is done because eclipse denied them, and otherwise it's a survival matter. However they've actually been attempting to socialize and have sent the gallians to do so for them multiple times. The redline are secretive though so yeah. You're right for that.

okay then! Don't take Germany. How about some place in East Asia, cause i need friends?
