Welcome to The North Pacific!
Welcome to The North Pacific (TNP)! You might be a new nation to the game or in TNP, and you don't really know what is going on or where to start. Or you may be an experienced member but have several questions regarding some of the activities going on. Whatever the case, we have put together this handbook that you can use to familiarize yourself with the game and TNP, and to make the most out of your time in NationStates (NS).
The handbook has a number of different sections. The index below will help you navigate them. If you have any questions not answered in this handbook, feel free to send a telegram to Delegate Kaschovia, Minister of Home Affairs Lionsroar, or any of the Gameside Advocates and Mentors. They will be glad to help! Additionally, we are always looking to improve this handbook, so let us now if you think something should be added or changed.
Onboarding Checklist
This section covers the very first items you should check off as a newcomer to the game and TNP.
Why you should be in TNP: Selecting a region for your nation is one of the most important decisions you will make in the game. We hope you will make TNP your home, and this link explains why. If you have already decided to stay here, that's great!
Join the regional forum: The forum is where most government and roleplay activities take place. Registering an account is very easy. You should get yourself an account so that you can check out what's going on and join in on the fun.
Join our regional chat: Our Discord server is where our members hang out and chat about the game and real life subjects. You can join and introduce yourself to our community. Additionally, if you have any questions, asking on Discord is the fastest way to get help.
Apply for citizenship: Citizenship is your ticket to TNP. As a citizen, you can vote to elect our Delegate and other government officials, hold them accountable, and even run for these positions yourself. All you need to apply is a nation in TNP and an account on the forum.
Ways to Get Involved
Now that you have cleared the basics, you must be looking for things to do. Below are some of the opportunities TNP offers.
Get involved in the government: There are many ways to get involved in the government straight away after joining TNP. You can write the regional laws in the Regional Assembly. You can take part in the day-to-day running of the region in the Executive Staff. Or, you can protect TNP at home and abroad in the North Pacific Army.
Get involved in the World Assembly: Joining the World Assembly (WA) is one of the best ways to empower your nation, especially in TNP. Thanks to our WA Development Program, as a WA member you can determine international laws, have one of the highest endorsement counts in the entire game, and even win awards!
Get involved in RolePlay: We have not one, but two vibrant RolePlay (RP) universes, Eras and Strangereal. Each comes with its own map, chronology, and physics laws. If you commit to being active in RP, you can claim a spot in either universe's map, and join others in weaving stories about your nation and its role in the world.
Get involved in trading cards: Our regional cards guild provides many resources you can take advantage of to increase the value of your deck, including several offerings of free cards. As a member of the guild, you can also participate in many other cards-related activities, including themed collections, pull events, and regular publications.

IC post: PotatoFarmers' official viewpoint on the WA resolution at vote - Prohibit Private Prisons
The Government is very concerned about WA Resolutions as PotatoFarmers, being a WA nation, is legally obliged to ratify all WA Resolutions to be part of our country's laws. PotatoFarmers has always been ratifying the passed WA resolutions, and has always supported many of the reeolutions proposed in the WA.
However, the recent resolution "Prohibit Private Prisons" has garnered huge discussion in the country, considering the restrictions that the resolution have on some of our current rehabilitation facilities in PotatoFarmers. It also had many citizens concerned about some of the proposals the resolution had put forth, considering how it overlaps with our current "Justice System Act".
After discussion with various legal experts in the nation, as well as some of the concerned citizens which attended our discussion session, the Committee of WA Affairs will stand firm by its original stand, that is to oppose the resolution at vote. This is because the resolution has greatly overstepped and prohibited the use of private companies and organisations in managing rehabilitation facilities, while ignoring the problem that private facilities would still be allowed to take in prisoners in the short-term. Despite the good intentions of the proposal, it has numerous flaws and therefore should be rejected and sent for rewording.
Considering how divisive the proposal is, and its huge impact on PotatoFamers, the Committee has prepared itself for various scenarios. The Committee has also sought the opinions of stakeholders in the country. The Committee has even considered the legal steps the Government will take in the event the proposal passes, including, regrettably, a possible departure from the WA. While PotatoFarmers do not wish to take such drastic measures, these measures may be inevitable if this resolution passes the WA floor.
PotatoFarmers has never considered such actions throughout its history as a WA member. The Government has accepted various proposals that goes against the country's ideals and proposals, which led to various changes to our policy. However, PotatoFarmers would like to appeal to the WA nations to reconsider such a resolution. The Committee would also take this opportunity to assure the citizens of PotatoFarmers that the Governemnt would have the citizens' interest at heart when voting for resolutions that impact the nation as a whole.
*Evil laugh*
Good morning ^_^
