Okay, it seems Australias dead. I just would like an answer: are we doing what we going to do with America, and have two countries per region?

Meh. I think we should only get one nation in Asia, including Australia. That said, I also think that it should be relatively easy to set up parts of our already existing Asian nations on Australia.

Well you know the Eastern Empire will look to pic out some realestate :lol: Of course I assume Norightsia will too, we all know how those Norightsians love expanding :lol: :P ;)


Actually wait a sec, now that I take a closer look at Paradise's map I find one small problem.....The Northern Section of my nation won't be able to be represented on that map, because the place where it is, isn't there. However I suppose I can just claim something else in replacement for my Northern Territory. Something closer to Korea.

Just PM me with your request. This map is much easier to work with than Scythirus's, and I'm keeping it. You may want part of Manchuria...

Hell, the smaller number of regions the better! Why not just make all the continents into one big region and set a limit on the number of nations someone could have. Like, say the maximum number of nations one could control would be 5. We can always keep the forums split up however they need to be, based on activity and whatnot, but I love the idea of having the entire world all in one big region. This would eliminate the need for mirror nations and would seamlessly integrate roleplaying from all over the world. The world is a global community and should be treated like one.

We must keep the Middle East though, it is from there we get most our new members :P

I rather like the current system. I'd just merge NA and SA and everything would be fine.

I was just wondering, though, why not have it like we were going to have it with America? Two countries, one region?

This hasn't been decided yet. We'll talk about that on March 27th as planned.

Wait, I thought we were just going to talk about America, not Australia? Anyway, what's the point of waiting 'till the 27th? Everything that was going to happened has happened. We should decide now.

You can talk about it now if you want ^_^

And yes, we are talking about Americas, so maybe this topic isn't appropriated...

Can you please directly address my question? Since Asia is now going to take up two continents, why not let each person have two nations, one in Asia, one in Australi?

It's a formal rule everyone agreed upon: 1 nation per map.

Just accept the rules that Paradise lays down. They have been like this for at least 2 years now. Nothing you can say or do will change them.

They were laid down by all mods and admins. I'm not a dictator here (well I think so :unsure: ).

As the map maker I will side with Paradise. Australia isn't big enough to be its own continent. Besides, you will want fewer and fewer nations as time goes by.

Uhh, let's keep the leadership as is. No need for a NationStates Big Brother! :unsure:

Although what Paradise said was just common knowledge, he was not being a dictator.

I agree, Australia is to small.

Not to get off topic (sorry), but my opinon has changed and I feel America should be combined, IDK what we should do with the 2 nations deleima (I kno I spelled this wrong...). I would be willing to combine my 2 (hawaii, and colombia) under the Colombian flag and have it become a "State?" (like USA does today...) of colombia, that way I could keep my land, But at the same time have only 1 nation. I understand my situation is rare and actually makes sense, someone combining, Example, Michigan and Peru makes no sense at all. Just a thought...

You did spell it wrong (dilemma) but that's no surprise. Anyways, I'm sure everyone will survive with just one nation.

lol, I don't have time to spell check...

As for 2 nations, I just don't want to give mine up!!! (not to sound selfish...)

I enjoy RPing Colombia better YET Hawaii is the better strategic point and this is an odd case where combining would actually make sense. Since it is what happens in real life today. O Well, I guess we will decide on the 27th.

I honestly like the potential of SA much better then NA. Since it is so short on land, it will make for some fun times.

Yeah, nobody really needs 5 nations to worry about anyways... We have lives outside of NS... at least I hope we do... and the fewer regions and nations the better. If you have to get rid of a nation in one of the two continents to comply with the rules after the consolidation, then just rp a cool story about how it happens and either let another nation take over through war or something...

So, my official position is:

Consolidate the Americas
Keep Australia as part of Asia
Maintain rule of one nation per region only
