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.

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.

We need recruiters! Our population has dropped by 40. Some of that is due to the departure of Theban Nation and his puppets, and most of the rest is due to attrition as nations CTE. If our region is to grow, YOU need to recruit! See the immigration department thread for rules and the login/logout sheet

The AWP inquirer needs volunteers to help produce new issues! If you can help with any of the headline issues or all of them, send Lord Tothe a private message indicating your desire to help!

The AWP regional flag competition has ended with a near-unanimous winner. Rancid Bunnies created a magnificent flag that will be the envy of all other regions! Here is the large example and the reduced-size national flag version.

HOW TO PROPERLY PLACE NEW EMPLOYEES

1. Put 400 bricks in a closed room.
2. Put your new hires in the room and close the door.
3. Leave them alone and come back after 6 hours.
4. Then analyze the situation:

a. If they are counting the bricks, put them in the Accounting
Department.

b. If they are recounting them, put them in Auditing.

c. If they have messed up the whole place with the bricks, put them in
Engineering.

d. If they are arranging the bricks in some strange order, put them in
Planning.

e. If they are throwing the bricks at each other, put them in
Operations.

f. If they are sleeping, put them in Security.

g. If they have broken the bricks into pieces, put them in Information
Technology.

h. If they are sitting idle, put them in Human Resources.

i. If they say they have tried different combinations, they are
looking for more, yet not a brick has been moved, put them in Sales.

j. If they have already left for the day, put them in Marketing.

k. If they are staring out of the window, put them in Strategic
Planning.

l. If they are talking to each other, and not a single brick has been
moved, congratulate them and put them in Top Management.

m. If they have surrounded themselves with bricks in such a way that
they can neither be seen nor heard from, put them in Congress.

So.... go back to Rucket's headlines, keep these, or try something new? I'm a bit curious to see whether long skinny headlines like the "New issue coming soon" bar night look better.

I see. I have a 19" LCD, so it's a bit hard to anticipate the needs of others. I'll see what I can do.
