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.

Newcomers to the forum should register an account using their nation name, and start a new thread in the Welcome Centre. Make sure you stop by Rucket Park for all your spam and games!

Senators:

Fyraria
Zisudra
Rom

Other Officials:

Minister of the Interior: Benevolent Thomas
Minister of Foreign Affairs: Fyraria
Minister of Imaginary Affairs: Lord Tothe
WA Delegate: Voik
RDF Commander: Numero Capitan
Welcome to A World Power!

Our forum acts as the hub of our community, and is where our Government, Citizens Assembly, and Regional Defence Force are coordinated. But it's not all serious business! The legendary Rucket Park is full of polls, spam games and nonsense chat, our Role Playing Pavilion is the place for all your roleplaying needs, and the A World Power Center is where we get to know each other.

Post here if you wish to join the Pessimistic Optimists Party. I'll send you the password to the TOP SECRET party forum as soon as possible. We need to get this thing off the ground and get moving for the upcoming delegate elections, and hopefully get enough momentum to keep this party alive. I welcome anyone who wants to help manage the party - we're pretty much a dictatorship right now with me as dictator. Let's move toward an anarchy!!!

Of course, anarchy is not our goal for the region. We (I?) want a democratically elected system here that represents the will of the people to the greatest extent possible. We strongly support the RDF and encourage all members to at least join the RDF Expeditionary Forces.

Current members (Updated Jan. 25):

Nitty (co-founder, active)
Tothe (co-founder, active)

Auel Neider (member, CTE)
Aibohpphobia (member, CTE)
Nomogeny (member, CTE)
Mustachistan (member, CTE)
Jengalii (member, CTE)
Skreemerius (member, CTE)
General and Dictator Doomus (member, CTE)
Rancid Bunnies (member, active)
Slubnite (member, CTE)
Big Donuts (member, CTE)
Gonzdara (member, CTE)
Death or Live (member, active)

*edit* I will update this list and send you a telegram when you join. I will not generally reply in this thread. Watch the members list above and watch your inbox to see if you're officially in the party.

Edited. You're in. I'll PM you the official forum password at my earliest convenience - lunch break is over. Contact Numero Capitan about the RDF if you have time. I think we'll have a mission tonight.

Thanks for joining.

I would like to ask the POP leadership-are we a party in Government or in Opposition? I am having difficulty accessing this critical piece of information in the forum threads.
Thanks for helping

Right first of I'm from DCAPCOMR.

The government here is lead by Neasymra and operates through three departments, two assemblies and a Senate of Seven voting (of 8) members. The three heads of departments each have a senate seat, as does Neas. These four positions are non-political. The WA Delegate also has a seat. As do the elected senators from the two regional assemblies (North and South). A further seat is held by a non-voting member, the secretary who releases minutes,etc, I am not sure whether this will become political, since it is very new.

POP currently holds the Delegacy.
IPP currently holds the North and South Senators, and is considered to be the party which runs the current government.

(Edit Oct 2008: Delegacy now held by a independent, potentially 2 extra senators soon)

That's because we don't technically have one. Well we have one but it is invisible. No you can stay on the forums but you can't really join the region for security purposes...


Well it's not my choice to decide for a month when I hope to be delegate. Good Luck

From Ann's intro thread:

Dec 20 2008, 05:30 PM

Lets see I'm currently in:

TWP
TUK
TRR
Lazarus
TNP
OBI
Torino
Equilism
Equinox
GV
and now AWP! :P

12 regions + the FRA = 13 :P


^ this is why I'm a bit leery of you getting involved in AWP politics You are involved in many other regions, your WA nation has (to the best of my knowledge) never been in AWP, and your other associations are a security risk. If you want to actively participate in AWP politics, I'll need to see some evidence of your support for and loyalty to this region.

And Lib, get your ugly DCAPCOMR butt outta my forum! :P

Here's a color/font code for you:

A strike with a red means I have a notable positions in that region but I am inactive

A strike means I hold no notable positions in the region and/or I am inactive there.

Blue means that I am active in the region and I do hold a notable position in the region.

Quote:
 

TWP Mayor of the region, and very active.
TUK Former defense minister, former Lady (Lord), now House of Commons member.
TRR Senator, but inactive, like the rest of the people there.
Lazarus I'm a CoE member and now Guardian of the Realm
TNP Former External Affairs minister, I resigned after being inactive there for a period of time, now just a RA member.
OBI I was active for like a day or 2 there, nothing special.
Torino Senator, Defense Minister, and Executive Councillor.
Equilism I was active for about a month, I was mostly using the attack system.
Equinox Chief Justice
GV I mainly chatted with Kraut about the PC v.s Mac debate, nothing special there
AWP Just showed up :P
FRA I usually check the forum on a daily basis.
TBH I raid with them



I just joined AWP like a week ago, I do often get involved in regional politics wherever I go, and AWP being the first all defender region i'm in will probably help spark some debate. I agree with the POP on all the issue except military, if you don't let me into your party i'll get involved in AWP politics as an independent.
w00t!
