The region is doing fine, if you're interested you can check out in the World Factbook Entry the events currently happening.
War between nations does not exist in NationStates, nor you should roleplay a war in this message board because that is against the etiquette. However, there is a different kind of war that you can join by enlisting in the TWPAF (our regional military) if interested.
hi guys
Hey guys! I just got here! Can anyone show me around?
Tortilla chips? = Tortilla chips. Nothing else. But I like to munch on taco shells better, they're not as salty.
The important thing in TWP used to be the Liquor Cabinet, rather than a specific drink. Delegate Rolheath insisted that the Liquor Cabinet always be full, and was his first concern when we started the new forum (the current forum). And Delegate Bhang Bhang Duc had a habit of leaving his roo-fur oil in the Liquor Cabinet. That's how we caught on to his bad habits.
And of course, during All Good People's Delegacy, we had the TWP coffee shop. And the coffee is still just as good today.
Welcome to NationStates and The West Pacific! This should help you:
Congratulations! Your nation has made its way to NationStates' premier meritocracy! In this guide you'll find all you need to navigate this game and get involved in our community here in the West Pacific.

What is NationStates?
NationStates (NS) is a nation simulation game where we, the players, run nations and band together in regions to have a good time.
First and foremost, there is your individual nation. This is what you see with when you login to NS. You have the authority to govern it as you see fit by answering issues, which change your laws, statistics, and rankings. These can be found using the different symbol tabs on your nation page.
You can also join the World Assembly, get to know the people of TWP, apply for regional citizenship, and join the regional government, which you'll read about in the next few sections.
Regions and the World Assembly
Every nation is a part of a region, and like you, they start out in one of the five Pacific regions. Most regions have their own systems of government that have been created by the players who live there. Each region is headed by a Delegate, the nation with the most World Assembly endorsements.
The World Assembly (WA) is similar to the United Nations in the real world. In this body, resolutions and laws are passed that all WA member nations must abide by. Please join the World Assembly to help secure your new home and raise its influence on the world stage!
Once you have joined the WA, you may vote on proposals in the General Assembly (GA) and Security Council (SC), and endorse other TWP nations. Please note that you are only allowed to have one nation in WA.
As mentioned earlier, the nation with the most endorsements in a region is the Delegate, gaining executive power in the region. For those reasons, it's extremely important to join the WA and endorse our Delegate Overthinkers & the Guardians.
In order to endorse a nation after you join the WA, find their page and then scroll to the bottom, where there will be a button to endorse.
If you have any further questions about NationStates you can send a telegram to our current Delegate, Overthinkers. She’s a great person and will kindly help with and questions or concerns you may have!
All about The West Pacific!
Here in The West Pacific, we use a meritocratic system of government with the Delegate at its head. The more active you are in the region and the more capable you show yourself to be, the more opportunities you will get for responsibility and advancement.
Because of this, we are one of the most continuously innovative regions in the game. The regional government is made up of the Delegate, the Guardians, Ministers, Deputy Ministers, and staff. All positions are appointed by the Delegate based on merit except for the Speaker of the Hall and the Hall of Nations Guardian, who are elected by the members of the Hall of Nations.
Members of the Hall of Nations are citizens of The West Pacific. You can join by making an account on our forums, filling the citizenship form, and repeating the citizenship oath.
Your application will be processed as soon as possible. While you wait, it's a good idea to talk on the Regional Message Board and get to know our Discord community.
After being accepted as a citizen, you can join one of TWP's government ministries to get more involved!

Edwin was a really nice to work with in the studio. (Westwind's lead guitarist also worked with him - it was his studio.)
What a stunning view of Venus nightside from 7,693 miles away by the Parker Solar Probe. Including an unexpected view of Aphrodite Terra (dark area in the middle of Venus in the photo). The largest highland region on Venus. Does the camera have unexpected capabilities, or did Venus provide an unexpected window through the atmosphere. Scientists don't know.

That, sir, is a lie. I never kept the roo-fur oil in the liquor cabinet. I kept the best wine cellar in TWP history. After my time in marsupial rehab I came back to find all of you had helped yourselves to some of the best vintages. My best Beaujolais quaffed, and I’m sure Yy had the Beaune.
It was like the Pope finding Michelangelo had painted a kangaroo, dancing girls snd three Christs into “The Last Supper”.

For all that happened and didn't happen last year, for all that has happened thus far, I'd like to think I'm thankful for what I have, for there are those whom do not have nor are thankful.
Hello, who won the football th8ng?
It's still happening, we still have one group stage matchday and the whole knockout stage to go.
Wow
TODAY IN THE WEST
It's Thank You Thursday! What are you grateful for?
Here's one thing you can give thanks for Chili! If you've got any good recipes, feel free to share.
Some general notes:
Valentine's Card Contest closes tonight.

I am thankful for curling broadcasts.

I have chilli a lot in curries and other dishes, but I've only had chili con carne once (I think that's what's being referred to).
I'm thankful to the centuries of international trade and migration that have led to the fantastical modern dishes we are able to enjoy, particularly in immigration-friendly multicultural places.
One particular dish I'd like to point out that is a wonderful success story of modern immigration and technology surrounding food is commonly known as the 'Hawaiian Pizza'.
This wonderful dish mixes tropical pineapples and tomatoes from the new world with cured ham, mozzarella cheese and dough from the old world.
The creation myth of this blessed delight is from a Greek cook who emigrated to Canada who was inspired by the ancient and carefully crafted tastes of Chinese cuisine.
Having soared in popularity, this worldwide recognised dish is the most popular pizza of all kinds in Australia, and among the most widely available pizza throughout the world.
Well I was going to be thankful to the NHS as I got a letter today saying I could book my Covid vaccinations.
Unfortunately that was NHS England whose systems haven’t caught up with the fact that I moved to Wales six months ago. I’m not eligible to get the jab here in Wales yet.

Give it another 6 months then they may realize :P
Bhang Bhang Duc, Varanius, Unanda, and Ma family
I did some quick phoning around to reassure myself and my wife that this wouldn’t effect our getting called for our jabs here. It won’t.
I knew something was up when the nearest vaccination centre they offered me was Aintree Racecourse. “Bit early for the Grand National” I thought.
