Hi, Hey Joe here.

I saw a thread about Jennifer Government over at OT, and I thought it would be cool if a bunch of us Escapists got together and formed our own nations in the game inspired by the novel.

It's called Nation States, and you choose your own name, history etc and then shape your nation based on a set of daily questions. You get all the facts and figures such as GDP, crime etc and it would be great if a bunch of Escapists got together and formed our own alliance.

Anyway, if you're already on there, give us the name of your nation here and if you're not, you can sign up http://www.nationstates.net/page=welcome there and hopefully we can have a bit of fun with this.

DISCUSS
I read that book forever and a half ago... Loved it... Glad to know others have read it. ;)

You are aware that a much more in depth version of Nation States [http://www.nationstates2.com] already exists (with say... Industries that matter, fluctuating prices, embargoes... When I used to play, war was being developed, unsure if it has been implemented yet), yes?

It even allows multiple alliances to be joined, making regions serve a more realistic purpose.

EDIT: Ah, yes, and my Nation Link: Here. [http://nationstates2.com/g/nation/nanjiakure] I'm on server 59 (I doubt it's still got space, but ya never know), on Oceanica.

No moving - NationStates2 is shutting down soon (It's actually illegal)

So no.

I declare WAR on you, UltraJoe, bitter bloody war to the death!
Prepare to face a Warmachine you cannot even begin to comprehend.

This warmachine, in fact:



Steam Powered Psychic Mecha.

Know Fear.

As a member of Escapikickass, I feel the need to warn you that my reginal allies might take offence at you getting your bodily fluids spread over their landscape, and decide to shoot you dead in a humane fashion before I can make you eat your own feet.

Thought I'd give this thread a bump so as to attract more Escapists and maybe create more discussion here as well as at the other site. If you haven't already you really should sign up and join Escapikickass, our region, it's a guaranteed good time.

I made my own map of the region, keeping the places already shown in Barrettstia's one but also adding in everyone who has joined the region so far.
map was here
I'm also workin' on a massive factbook entry on Brachyuria at the moment.

And Berethond? Get your giant floating eyeball self to the incident thread so you're actually a part of your own incident.

Edit:
Map had some spelling errors, and a few more people have joined the region since, so here be the updated one

Very nice map! I like that I am actually on there, unlike Chris's map! *shakes fist*

Quite a nice chunk of land also!

It's for your own good you damn hippie.
Always playing the drum in a circle and such.
That, and the fact that I secretly pine for you, and am trying too hard to hide it.

http://www.nationstates.net/gamekid171

The Republic of Gamekid171 is a fledgling, pleasant nation, renowned for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, hard-working population of 5 million have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The tiny government concentrates mainly on Law & Order, although Defence and Commerce are on the agenda. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 2%. A substantial private sector is led by the Book Publishing industry, followed by Soda Sales and Woodchip Exports.

Crime is a problem. Gamekid171's national animal is the chiken and its currency is the gold peice.

i'm a video game nerd which is why i have the gold peice if you don't like it then to war we go!
[/sarcasm]

(please don't hurt me)

it WOULD have been the republic of repel but that was taken... curse you!
