The reason it's so long is because I have a job where I have the option to work from home (which was there even before Covid) so I'm gonna take advantage of it.

That's great!

If you're ever in the Benidorm area come and see us. :D

The North Pacific Handbook

Welcome! · Why you should be in TNP · Ways to get involved · WA Development Program · RolePlay · Trading Cards

Welcome to The North Pacific!
NationStates' largest democracy

Whether you are new or experienced, this handbook will provide you with answers to all of your questions. If you have other unanswered questions, feel free to ask Delegate Simone Republic, Minister of Home Affairs The Democratic Kingdom Of Skaraborg, or any of the Gameside Advocates and Mentors. They will be glad to help! Additionally, we are always looking for ways to improve this handbook, so let us know if you think something should be added or changed.

Table of Contents

First Steps

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: explaining the pros of staying in our large region.
Endorse the Delegate, Vice Delegate and the Security Council: Endorsing the Delegate, Vice Delegate and all members of the Security Council is important for safeguarding our region against external threats and ensuring the continuation of our constitutional government.
Join the regional forum: The forum is where most government and roleplay activities take place. Registering an account is very easy.
Join our Discord: Our Discord server is where our members hang out and chat about the game and real life subjects.
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.

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.

Join the Executive Staff: The equivalent of TNP's Civil Service, the Executive Staff is a group of residents and citizens that are employed to assist one or more of the Ministries of the Executive Government. It is ideal both for new residents who want to gain experience in how the government operates, and for experienced citizens who are looking to contribute to the region through the Executive.
Enlist in the North Pacific Army: The North Pacific Army (NPA) is our regional military force. The NPA defends the region, our allies, and serves abroad helping our friends and fighting our enemies.
Enlist in the Militia: The North Pacific Army Militia is for people who wish to contribute to the North Pacific Army but for whatever reason, likely because they cannot/do not want to have a forum or Discord account, cannot be members of the regular Army in the Auxiliary or Special Forces branches.
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.

Laws and Government

This section contains all the relevant laws, guidelines, and policies of TNP's Government.

Government index: Get to know your government by using this list of all government officials in TNP. If you have questions or suggestions about any aspect of the regional governance, feel free to send a telegram to the corresponding government official.
Law index: This is a compilation of all legal documents currently in force in TNP. This includes our Constitution and Bill of Rights, which form the basis of our government.
RMB Guidelines: Posting on the regional message board (RMB) is a great way to socialize and get to know other TNP nations. Just make sure to follow these guidelines.
Embassy policy: If you are here as a diplomat from another region, please take a look at our policy for in-game and forum embassies.
Recruitment policy: If you are here to recruit for another region, please take a look at our policy on permissible and prohibited types of recruitment.

World Assembly Policy

For WA member-states, here is where you can find out about our WA vote recommendations and voting policy.

Information for WA Voters: Produced by the Ministry of WA Affairs, IFVs provide vote recommendations and analysis about all resolutions that reach the floor of the General Assembly or Security Council.
World Assembly voting policy: Look here to learn how TNP's Delegate casts the regional vote on World Assembly resolutions, and how you can help determine that vote.

Regional News and Publications

TNP publishes a number of regional publications, where news and reports are delivered to the public. You can follow them to stay up to speed with what's going on in TNP.

The Northern Lights: Produced by the Ministry of Communications, this is our regional newspaper. It includes both general news and op-ed articles about various aspects of TNP and NS.
The North Star: Produced by the Ministry of Communications, The North Star informs TNPers of current internal matters and government activities.
The Northern Notes: Produced by the Ministry of Communications, The Northern Notes delivers quick updates on regional happenings.
Northern Broadcasting Service: Produced by the Ministry of Communications, this is our very own regional radio station in which our broadcasters provide their insight into current events in TNP and Nationstates.
Regional Assembly Digest: Produced by the Speaker's Office, the digest focuses on news about the legislative and other business of the Regional Assembly.
The Vice Delegate's Weekly Update: Produced by the Vice Delegate, this weekly publication provides updates on the activities of the Security Council.

Regional Awards

TNP bestows certain awards to nations that are the most active in the World Assembly or regional conversations.

WADP Awards: Produced as part of the WADP, this monthly publication presents regional awards to nations that actively participate in the World Assembly.
Literary Awards: Produced by the Gameside Advocates, this monthly publication presents regional awards to nations that actively post on the regional RMB or publish dispatches.

Why and how to join the World Assembly

"

WA Development Program

Overview · Join the World Assembly · Become a Keeper · Exchange endorsements · Vote on resolutions · Statistics · Benefits · Card lottery · Security Council

TL;DR: Join the World Assembly and improve your game!
~ Go to your nation's settings, and make sure you have provided a valid email.
~ Go to the World Assembly page and click on ""Apply to Join"" at the top.
~ Check the email address you provided for a confirmation email from NationStates, and click the link included in the email. If you don't see the email, make sure to check any spam folders.

You have been in NationStates (NS) for a while now. You have answered issues, written telegrams, posted on the Regional Message Board. You may be wondering what else there is to do. Have you considered joining the World Assembly (WA)? If not, you definitely should.

Joining the WA is one of the best ways to improve your game experience and increase your nation's power. This is more true in The North Pacific (TNP) than in anywhere else - it is no coincidence we have way more WA nations than any other region. We hope that the material below will convince you to become a member.

If you are already a WA nation in TNP, you should take a look here, here, and here to find out about exciting ways to use your WA membership.

What does joining the World Assembly enable me to do?

Below are some of the things you can do as a WA nation.

~ Vote in the World Assembly!

As a WA nation, you will be able to cast a vote on all WA resolutions that reach the floor of either the General Assembly or the Security Council, and help decide whether they will become NationStates law.

~ Endorse and be endorsed by others!

As a WA nation, you can endorse other WA nations that are in the same region as you are. For example, in TNP, you can endorse our Delegate Kaschovia and Vice Delegate PotatoFarmers, and almost surely they will also endorse you back.

~ Submit your own resolution proposals!

As a WA nation, once you get two endorsements (for example, those of Kaschovia and PotatoFarmers), you can submit your own resolution proposals for consideration by all of NationStates.

Cool, but is that all? You promised me power!

In most other regions, that would be all. But not in TNP. TNP has many unique characteristics that make it the best region for your WA nation to be in. Here is why.

~ You can directly determine the outcome of WA votes!

By being a WA nation in TNP, in addition to casting your individual vote on WA resolutions, you can also vote on the forum polls our WA Ministry holds for each resolution. These polls determine how our Delegate Kaschovia uses the regional vote. This is by far the largest vote in all of NationStates, and one of the main deciding factors for the fate of proposals at vote. And by participating in our forum votes, you get to directly influence it yourself - think of it like having 1000+ WA votes! Moreover, our forum votes feature analysis of the resolutions by some of the world's foremost WA experts, as well as discussion among all - including, of course, you. Therefore, you can be certain that you will always have the best information possible at your disposal while deciding how to use all your voting power.

~ You can have one of the largest endorsement counts in the game!

As we mentioned above, TNP has by far the most WA nations in the world - and more WA nations mean more endorsements. But there is more. TNP is unique among large regions in that it places almost no restrictions on the number of endorsements you may have - to the contrary, we encourage you to have many endorsements! Put together, these mean that you can easily get yourself one of the largest endorsement counts in the game, more than most WA delegates, top those prestigious World Census rankings, and win trophies for your nation. You can check for yourself: 45 of the top-50 nations for most WA endorsements in the world are from TNP.

~ You can become one of the most recognizable and inflential nations in TNP!

Exchanging endorsements is an excellent way to socialize: As you endorse others, they will likely endorse you back and get to know your nation. You can endorse others as a first step towards becoming a prominent member of TNP's vibrant WA community. Moreover, as your nation's endorsements increase, so does its regional influence. All in all, by endorsing everyone, you can quickly become one of the best-known nations in the region, a true TNP influencer.

~ You can win regional titles and awards exclusive to WA nations!

Each month, we give out awards exclusive to WA nations. You win an award by joining the WA, and you can win more by actively exchanging endorsements. WA nations are also ranked daily in a few regional censuses, giving you the opportunity to compete for top regional spots. Finally, as a WA member, you can becoming a Keeper of the North, which brings your nation increased recognition and prestige, and is the first step towards becoming a member of the Security Council.

I am already a WA member with another nation. The more the merrier?

No, hold on! NationStates rules allow you to only have one nation in the World Assembly. As tempting as it is to have more, it is a really bad idea. On top of being dishonest and unfair towards other players, you run the risk of NationStates moderators finding out and deleting your nations, or even permanently banning you from the World Assembly and the game itself. And no matter how well you may try to hide it, the mods will find out eventually. If your WA nation is already in TNP, then you are pretty much done with this dispatch - but you should take a look at this one, this other one, and this third one.

But what if my WA nation is not in The North Pacific?

You should consider moving that nation in TNP - we welcome all nations! Hopefully all the above have already convinced you that TNP is the best region for WA nations to be in. And if you need more reasons to move here, TNP is a great region all around - definitely the place to be in NationStates.

I gain a lot, but what does The North Pacific gain by having my WA nation?

More WA nations in the region means more endorsements for our WA Delegate Kaschovia. This in turn means a stronger regional vote in the World Assembly, and therefore increased influence for TNP internationally - you can read more about this here.. Furthermore, having more WA nations makes our community more secure and stable - you can read more about this here. As you can see, by being a WA nation in TNP, you directly make our region stronger and safer. Thanks!

Are there other ways to take advantage of my WA membership?

WA membership also enables you to take part in military gameplay. Yes, NS does in fact have regional militaries and wars, though maybe not in the way you would expect. You can learn all about this exciting aspect of the game by joining our own regional military, the North Pacific Army (NPA). The NPA is one of the strongest and most active militaries in the game, with a tradition of more than a decade in protecting TNP, our allies, and our interests abroad. You can become part of this tradition, and start a military career full of exciting operations, medals and ribbons, and promotions all the way up to General. Keep in mind, however, that by being a member of the NPA you will be required to frequently switch your WA membership to other nations you own, which most likely will be outside of TNP.

The Keepers of the North are a group of nations that help keep The North Pacific (TNP) secure. They work together with the Security Council to protect TNP from external threats and ensure the continuation of our constitutional government.

Becoming a Keeper of the North is a great way to jump-start your career within TNP. Your role as a Keeper is advertised to other nations in the region, increasing your visibility. And after a distinguished service as Keeper, you can apply to join the Security Council.

Note that, in order to become a Keeper of the North, your TNP nation must be a WA member. If that is not already the case, you can read here about why and how to change this. Additionally, Keepers of the North do not include members of the North Pacific Army.

What do I gain by being a Keeper of the North?

Below are some of the ways in which being a Keeper of the North benefits your nation.

~ Collect endorsements faster and easier!

As part of the WA Development Program (WADP), we advertise Keepers of the North as good nations for other WA nations in TNP to endorse. When it comes to endorsement promotion, Keepers of the North are billed higher than any other nation in TNP, except for Delegate Gorundu and the Security Council themselves.

~ Win awards and cards for your nation!

As a sign of our appreciation, Keepers of the North receive their very own award in every volume of the WADP Awards. Additionally, by being a Keeper of the North, you become eligible to win free legendary cards in the daily card lottery. The longer your nation is a Keeper of the North, the more awards and cards you collect!

~ Increase your chances of becoming a member of the Security Council!

If you decide to apply to join the Security Council, then your application will be evaluated first by all existing Security Councillors, and then by all citizens of TNP. Being a Keeper of the North is a great step towards making sure that your application is successful. The longer you have been a Keeper of the North, the better!

I'm sold, how do I become a Keeper of the North?

That's great to hear! Becoming a Keeper of the North is very easy.

~ If you are not already a member, join the World Assembly with your TNP nation.
~ Endorse Delegate Gorundu and all members of the Security Council.

Within 24 hours of doing the above, you will receive a notification confirming your status as a Keeper of the North, and you will be added to all related WADP materials.

Who are the Keepers of the North?

We maintain a daily-updating list of all Keepers of the North. Check to see if your nation is there!

This dispatch is updated automatically on a daily basis. Please do not edit manually.

Jointly sponsored by the Delegate and Security Council of The North Pacific.

The North Pacific Handbook

Welcome! · Why you should be in TNP · Ways to get involved · WA Development Program · RolePlay · Trading Cards

Welcome to The North Pacific!
NationStates' largest democracy

Whether you are new or experienced, this handbook will provide you with answers to all of your questions. If you have other unanswered questions, feel free to ask Delegate Simone Republic, Minister of Home Affairs The Democratic Kingdom Of Skaraborg, or any of the Gameside Advocates and Mentors. They will be glad to help! Additionally, we are always looking for ways to improve this handbook, so let us know if you think something should be added or changed.

Table of Contents

First Steps

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: explaining the pros of staying in our large region.
Endorse the Delegate, Vice Delegate and the Security Council: Endorsing the Delegate, Vice Delegate and all members of the Security Council is important for safeguarding our region against external threats and ensuring the continuation of our constitutional government.
Join the regional forum: The forum is where most government and roleplay activities take place. Registering an account is very easy.
Join our Discord: Our Discord server is where our members hang out and chat about the game and real life subjects.
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.

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.

Join the Executive Staff: The equivalent of TNP's Civil Service, the Executive Staff is a group of residents and citizens that are employed to assist one or more of the Ministries of the Executive Government. It is ideal both for new residents who want to gain experience in how the government operates, and for experienced citizens who are looking to contribute to the region through the Executive.
Enlist in the North Pacific Army: The North Pacific Army (NPA) is our regional military force. The NPA defends the region, our allies, and serves abroad helping our friends and fighting our enemies.
Enlist in the Militia: The North Pacific Army Militia is for people who wish to contribute to the North Pacific Army but for whatever reason, likely because they cannot/do not want to have a forum or Discord account, cannot be members of the regular Army in the Auxiliary or Special Forces branches.
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.

Laws and Government

This section contains all the relevant laws, guidelines, and policies of TNP's Government.

Government index: Get to know your government by using this list of all government officials in TNP. If you have questions or suggestions about any aspect of the regional governance, feel free to send a telegram to the corresponding government official.
Law index: This is a compilation of all legal documents currently in force in TNP. This includes our Constitution and Bill of Rights, which form the basis of our government.
RMB Guidelines: Posting on the regional message board (RMB) is a great way to socialize and get to know other TNP nations. Just make sure to follow these guidelines.
Embassy policy: If you are here as a diplomat from another region, please take a look at our policy for in-game and forum embassies.
Recruitment policy: If you are here to recruit for another region, please take a look at our policy on permissible and prohibited types of recruitment.

World Assembly Policy

For WA member-states, here is where you can find out about our WA vote recommendations and voting policy.

Information for WA Voters: Produced by the Ministry of WA Affairs, IFVs provide vote recommendations and analysis about all resolutions that reach the floor of the General Assembly or Security Council.
World Assembly voting policy: Look here to learn how TNP's Delegate casts the regional vote on World Assembly resolutions, and how you can help determine that vote.

Regional News and Publications

TNP publishes a number of regional publications, where news and reports are delivered to the public. You can follow them to stay up to speed with what's going on in TNP.

The Northern Lights: Produced by the Ministry of Communications, this is our regional newspaper. It includes both general news and op-ed articles about various aspects of TNP and NS.
The North Star: Produced by the Ministry of Communications, The North Star informs TNPers of current internal matters and government activities.
The Northern Notes: Produced by the Ministry of Communications, The Northern Notes delivers quick updates on regional happenings.
Northern Broadcasting Service: Produced by the Ministry of Communications, this is our very own regional radio station in which our broadcasters provide their insight into current events in TNP and Nationstates.
Regional Assembly Digest: Produced by the Speaker's Office, the digest focuses on news about the legislative and other business of the Regional Assembly.
The Vice Delegate's Weekly Update: Produced by the Vice Delegate, this weekly publication provides updates on the activities of the Security Council.
