Information:

Founded in March of 2007, A World Power was once one of the largest regions in Nationstates, and is currently re-building to its former glory! We as a region hold no specific political ideology, but nations organise themselves into Great Houses of likeminded individuals. The leaders of the three largest Houses form a Triumvirate which is responsible for leading the region. We believe in open elections for all citizens of our region and operate a one of the major defender forces in the game, which protects regions across Nationstates from invasion.

Breaking news! Victory in The North Pacific! The former dictatorial usurper named Lewis & Clark has resigned from the World Assembly and returned power to our ally, Great Bights Mum. Various members of the AWP RDF have been acting in support of GBM for nearly 3 months. Many puppets have been martyred in this cause, but L&C was whittled down from a 40- endorsement lead at approximately 360-320 to a nightly banjection battle to maintain a 5- point advantage. The day before his resignation, he was faced with near defeat as GBM gained a 12-point endorsement lead prior to the nightly banjection spree.

In his resignation speech, L&C stated, "Thank you Maha and GBM. I will, at best, be on 'Leave of Absence' let us say, until RL circumstances warrant otherwise.

"I have had the need to depart NS for some time now, as my regretful lack of full activity has shown. Perhaps someday, the story can be told. It's not a good one.

"TNP in any case needs active leadership. That was the entire point many months ago, as we sat upon an inactive z13 forum with an inactive government.

"Yes, Wandering Messengers, I am leaving. In 24 hours, TNP will have a new delegate.

"Be good to each other, and always remember that this is a game. And behind each nation is a human being, a player engaged in a role they choose to play. Each player may change roles at times, and steer their own course independent of what you may or may not think they should do.

"Peace be with you."

Rum flowed freely as Great Bights Mum celebrated with the rest of the inhabitants of The North Pacific.


Kolinar has made his return to AWP. Welcome back Kolinar.

Senator of the South, Ranholn, has made his intentions know that he will run for the WA Delegate position when the delegate elections come back around.

The Queendom of Lilianum
"Piece of Peace"

Category: Democratic Socialists
Civil Rights:
Very Good Economy:
Developing Political Freedoms:
Average
Location: 00000 A World Power Regional Influence: Minnow

The Queendom of Lilianum is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its devotion to social welfare. Its compassionate population of 758 million are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, the Environment, and Social Equality. The average income tax rate is 92%, and even higher for the wealthy. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising fourteen-year-old boys selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.

It is a crime to offend someone's religious beliefs, citizens are allowed to rise or fall based on their own merits, the smokie is a protected species, and parents live in fear of governmental 'child protection' squads. Crime is totally unknown. Lilianum's national animal is the smokie, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the lien.

Lilianum is ranked 4th in the region and 2,126th in the world for Most Compassionate Citizens.

One night when I was spending some quality time with my girlfriend, she turns round to me and says:

"Jimmy, we're at a crossroads in our relationship. Down one road is hard work, commitment, but ultimately, happiness. And the other road, well, down the other road is a dead end."

And I said to her:

"That's not a crossroads, that's a T-junction." -Jimmy Carr

Good copy.

It shall be interesting to see how successful advertising in your paper will be...

What do other readers think?

I think they could be useful. I think my adverts for the IPP in the previous senate elections may have swayed a few votes and also provide a quick single line explaining what the candidate stands for which makes it accessible.

I recommend us making the titles for each section smaller though. The Equilism forum does it automatically to our paper and it looks much more effective!
