OOC: It struck me a few moments ago that, to my knowledge, there has never been a system for "twinning" cities of different NS countries. For those who have never heard of the concept, it usually involves particular ties between two cities in two different countries, for example with trips of citizens organised between the two, class exchanges between schools, cultural exchanges, penfriends, etc...

I was thinking we could establish a list of cities or towns twinned with one another. A city can bee twinned with several others.

To give you a real life example, the town of Créteil, in France, is twinned with Kiryat Yam (Israel), Cotonou (Benin), Les Abymes (Guadeloupe), Salzgitter (Germany), Falkirk (Scotland), Mataro (Spain), Erevan (Armenia) and Playa (Cuba).

The major cities in Ariddia would be interested in being twinned with foreign cities or towns. Preferably with cities or towns from nations Ariddia has friendly relations with, but Ariddians are always willing to make new friends. ;)

Here's a list of those cities.

* Rêvane (http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/R%C3%AAvane) (capital)
* Cité-Belle (http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Cit%C3%A9-Belle)
* Espérence (http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Special:Search?search=Esp%C3%A9rence)
* Haven (http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Haven_%28city%29)
* New Hope (http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/New_Hope)
* Wavecrest (http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Wavecrest)

If you would like one of your cities or towns to be twinned with an Ariddian city, just say so. If you've got cities or towns you'd like to twin, but not (or not only) with Ariddian ones, simply list them, perhaps with some basic information or a link to an NSwiki article.

Bettia

Greetings from sunny Gabalfa

The Bettian government are always open to new ideas for furthering international relations, and we would like to propose a twinning between our capital Gabalfa and the city of Rêvene.

A map of Bettia is available here --> clicky-woo! (http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y231/bettia/bettia-map-1.jpg)

All towns and cities marked on the map would be willing for a bit of twinning action (ooer!). The city of Fortuna Bettialis (situated in the centre, just southwest of Gabalfa) is currently twinned with the city of Cerignola in Pacitalia.


OOC: the city in which I currently live (Cardiff, UK) is twinned with Nantes (France), Stuttgart (Germany), Hordaland (Norway), Lugansk (Ukraine) and Xiamen (China). It was also twinned with Balitimore, that that one ended a whlie ago. There were also rumours that the city council were trying for a twinning with San Francisco.
Ariddia
09-07-2006, 12:47
The city of Rêvane would be pleased to accept twinning with Gabalfa. Hopefully this will increase understand between both cities and nations, and will lead to cultural exchanges and mutual visits by citizens of each.

Information on Rêvane can be found here (http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/R%C3%AAvane).

Timiocato (Pacitalia) and Philadelphia (Oceania) are also twinned already.

I don't think that should matter unless the cities themselves want to focus more on just a single "twin" city. In real life, a number of cities have multiple "sister" cities:

Pittsburgh, PA
Bilbao, Donets'k, Fernando de la Mora, Matanzas, Ostrava, Omiya (the first Japanese city), Presov, Saarbrucken, Saitama (a second Japanese city), San Isidro, Sheffield, Sofia, Wuhan, Zagreb

Is there a difference between a twin cities and sister cities program?

The International Democratic Union started a regional Sister City program over a month ago, where we tried to match up a few of our towns. I only opened up a single Mikitivity village in hopes of preparing more cities on Wikipedia to give people something interesting to link to ... I don't want to be totally needy and just have people linking to cities I don't plan to further develop. :)

Is there also going to be a general Wikipedia article for the Twin Cities program? If so, could I link the IDU program to the page -- chances are great that IDU cities will also want to participate in a larger program. :)

The government of Bettia would like to reiterate that all towns and cities are available for twinning. Our major cities are:


Gabalfa
Akani Sands
Lorshill
Tamrida
Sukatra
Ceffinton
Porthbalfa
Pen-yr-Heol
Grappenhall
Ryoga Bay

The cities of our two neighbouring puppets, Northern Bettia and Morgrugyn, are also available for twinning. A full map of Bettia and its puppets can be found here (http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y231/bettia/bettia-map-1.jpg).
Bostopia
06-07-2007, 17:50
Fort Boston, the nation's capital, is looking to twin wards of the city with other capital cities across the world. Castle and Park has already been twinned with Vladigrad, capital of Vladmiristak, our closest ally.

As such, the Fort Boston City Council, in co-operation with the Bostopian Government and the Fort Boston State Senate are accepting links with foreign capitals. Districts available for twinning are;

Benniswald
Cenwick (Political heart of the city)
Drenning
Frenfield
Jaringfeld
Nunsworth
Parfsburgh
Ranton (A city in it's own right, but as good as a part of Fort Boston)
Sensford

Other cities can of course be twinned with, and these can be found on the following link. State Capitals are marked with a red circle.

http://www.btinternet.com/~david.boston/_bostopia/bostopialargenew.pdf

Please note that the Republic of Laquar was thrown out of the Confederate States following a terorrist attack and was then subsequently occupied by the Bostopian military. No requests for links with Laquar will be taken.

Yours

General Peter Hackworth, Minister for Foreign Affairs of the Empire of the Confederate States of the East and West Isles of Bostopia.

Sign me up for tentative twinnage with Northern Bettia, just for laughs. I'll give actual thought to it later...Arlington, in northeast Zwangzug, might be a good fit for this sort of thing as it's probably the best example of what Zwangzug is like, as opposed to larger cities with larger egos.

It's a sister city if your in America (or Cookesland...) and a Twin Town any where else.

Greetings from sunny Gabalfa

We have read with interst your country's proposals, and wish to make it known that our capital city Gabalfa would be interested in twnning with your nation's political centre Cenwick. Also, the council of the coastal city of Akani Sands have expressed an interest in twinning with Population Beach - being a resort city, they feel they would have something in common (and they assure us it has nothing to do with taking a little jolly to the seaside).




FAO: the government of Zwangzug

We have forwarded your proposals to the military high command currently in charge of Northern Bettia, and they have responded by saying that they would be interested in twinning Anyuna, the capital of Northern Bettia, with your city of Arlington.

The Honorable Foreign Secretary

Fort Boston City Council has unanimously voted to approve the link between Gabalfa and Cenwick.

Also, the Population Beach Borough Council (within Narringtonshire, Monham State) has voted to link with Akani Sands. Population Beach plays a crucial role in Bostopian history, as it is the site where the first Bostopians made landfall nearly 2000 years ago. But of course, it is still a popular tourist destination, and the link with Akani Sands is seen as benificial to the economies of both Akani Sands and Population Beach.

Yours

General Hackworth, Foreign Secretary of the C.S.B.

Burnaby proposes a twinning agreement with Brutland City/Brutia, and Redswyth with Nordville/Vilònorda.
"Brutland City would be very happy to be twinned with Burnaby. If you'd like, we can send one of our popular post-hardcore bands to play in your city," -- Mayor Antonello Sentinelli of Brutland City.

"It would be very advantageous for both our cities. Redswyth is very much like Nordville, and our inhabitants have a lot in common," -- the Communist Mayor of Nordville.

Bassabook (an island of conservatism in an a mostly-otherwise socialist nation) would naturally like to twin with Nordville/Vilònorda.

Spenson (the city that has developed around the national spaceport) would like to twin with Abadia.

The Emperor, excited with the idea of twinning Cafundéu's cities, accepted all the last proposals (also hoping to get some financial profit from this, of course). So, besides the previous proposals (of the Ariddian cities), here are the twinning agreements:

Submiria -----> Colwyn (Kelssek)
Lasft -----> Latrobe (Kelssek)
Rio Negro -----> Rockport (Qazox)
Governador Viana -----> Ciudad de Iguana (Qazox)
Abadia -----> Gothika (Qazox) and Spenson (Zwangzug)
Cafundó do Juta -----> Port Imbris (Cookesland)
Lux -----> Ariana (Cookesland)

The Deddiquois, being francophile and containing a substantial ex-patriot Ariddian population, would like to form a twin-city relationship with an Ariddian city.

Deddick (http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Deddick), with a population in excess of 20 million, is the 2nd largest city in Errinundera (after Bonang). It's growth is dependent on the rich surrounding agricultural region.

Deddick has a proud revolutionary history. Soldiers from the city were the first to mutiny in the 1905 revolution, marched on the then capital, Milosis (now McKillops Bridge), accepted the surrender of the royal family's personal guard, and slaughtered the royal family (not so nice!) by throwing them from the palace window above a 60m cliff.

The Deddiquois have long since abandoned their violent ways and the army was disbanded after the 1941 liberation.

I'm sure there would be an appropriate Ariddian city for twinning.

They may be expatriates, but they're not necessarily ex-patriots. :p

Cité-Belle (http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Cit%C3%A9-Belle) may be a good choice. Especially if there are Errinundrians studying at the Third World University (http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Third_World_Open_University).

Naturally Kingsville would be happy to have closer relations with the capital of Cookesland. We gladly accept.

New Hope (http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/New_Hope) would be interested in twinning with Vilònorda.
Of course, of course, we would like to have more contact with the outside world. I am sure they will love our workers' utopia.

Heh - originality was never a Gog strong point. They just saw all those signposts in their abandoned towns when they moved in and couldn't be bothered to rename half of them. Still, they'll be very happy to accept all of these proposals.

It has just occurred to me that Murrindal (http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Murrindal) should have an Ariddian sister city also. It is renowned in Errinundera for its quisine and its cafe culture. It was also the first city in the nation to open a Santé! restaurant.

I suggest either Wavecrest (http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Wavecrest) (home of Santé!) or Cité-Belle (http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Cit%C3%A9-Belle) or Rêvane (http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/R%C3%AAvane) (both of which have more of a "café culture").

Wavecrest it is. Cité-Belle is already twinned with Deddick.
