Peace.

OOC: As a 1/4 Cherokee I am watching your region with interest. Peace be upon you.

IC: Bíonn dhá insint ar scéal agus dhá leagan déag ar amhrán. Nár laga Dia do lámh.

OOC: I dont liek this, but, seeing as this is not the place nor time, I wont go into why.

ooc: anyone who has any concerns, comments or input feel free to TM me. Again, this is a region i created out of an intrest in Education and Reality based RP. The more people we have that have actual knowledge and truth about the ways of all the Tribes and Nations of Native Americans, we will only be stronger and clearer in our presentation to those who have genuine intrest in this culture. This is not a Dictatorship!! I just created it and hope that the others who join will have a sincere interest in Native America. So again, feel free to TM me or respond here with any questions, concerns, etc.


peace.

I find it nice - maybe a hijack of the game for OOC purposes, but much better that the Nazi/White Power?Gay/anti-gay types that show up sooo very much. :(

So it would be perfectly fine if I set up a region with the single purpose of promoting the knowledge, traditions, and ways of white people only, for educational purposes?

I can see a few people having a problem with that, which is rather unfounded, really, 'cause then if you perhaps made one for..Celts only (for example), it would be accepted. Very odd, really.
I suppose it's cultural before racial. Meh, that's okay.

But why would anyone have a problem with it? I'm going to say right now, I am not a racist. I dated a african american for about a year. I have very close freinds who are Jewish (I'm, for those who have yet to figure out, am Protestant). One of my suitemates here is Arabic, and we get along great. But why would anyone care if I set up a region for the specific purpose of catering only to white people. I wouldnt say you have to blonde hair blue eyed catholic, only white.

I personally dont see what the problem is. This game as alot of potential for education purposes of all sorts. I would imagine most people have created their particular nation/s to reflect their political, religious, or cultural likings. if someone was to start a region on European, African, American colonial, Autralian, whatever, heritage and culture, then that would be great. it should not be a 'race' thing though, and thats not what this is about. this is about culture, heritage, and history, and again, once the region is established, to use for RP that is based on that history, culture, etc.

peace.

Anegada.
aka, Culebra.
aka, The Osage. :)

If they went about it as nicely as Osage has, would there be so many objections. Osage is playing nice unlike most of the White power nazis. Take it to the general forum please.

We invite the Native America Region to join with us in the Orthanc Alliance. Of course you would keep your traditions, customs and your region but you would be members of our beneficial alliance. Here is the thread, please take the time to consider our proposal.

Ach, I don't know, some people just like aggro, I suppose.

Still, if I knew more about Amer-Indian societies and history I'd probably not be able to resist creating an Inca-inspired nation to go along with this.

I wouldn't have the forty-thousand warriors allow the Spaniards to retreat, either.

Oh no, I'm getting ideas, must..resist..haven't..time!

I'm damn tempeted to set up a puppet nation, based on present day Ireland, and just let the English have it, but same problem, no time.

Hm, well, if your nations ever seek outside contact with folk who don't have the technology to spray you with bullets, the bronze age Ralish Empire is always looking for trade (and slaves, conquest, and so on, but never mind that).

this is my tribes national site http://www.welcomehome.org
and my regional site http://groups.msn.com/FlyingHeartsong

There was an old lady, from the Cree Nation, named Eyes of Fire, who prophesied that one day, because of the white mans' or Yo-ne-gis' greed, there would come a time, when the fish would die in the streams, the birds would fall from the air, the waters would be blackened, and the trees would no longer be, mankind as we would know it would all but cease to exist.

There would come a time when the "keepers of the legend, stories, culture rituals, and myths, and all the Ancient Tribal Customs" would be needed to restore us to health. They would be mankinds’ key to survival, they were the Warriors of the Rainbow. There would come a day of awakening when all the peoples of all the tribes would form a New World of Justice, Peace, Freedom and recognition of the Great Spirit.

The Warriors of the Rainbow would spread these messages and teach all peoples of the Earth or Elohi. They would teach them how to live the "Way of the Great Spirit". They would tell them of how the world today has turned away from the Great Spirit and that is why our Earth is Sick.

The Warriors of the Rainbow would show the peoples that this Ancient Being (the Great Spirit), is full of love and understanding, and teach them how to make the Earth or Elohi beautiful again. These Warriors would give the people principles or rules to follow to make their path right with the world. These principles would be those of the Ancient Tribes. The Warriors of the Rainbow would teach the people of the ancient practices of Unity, Love and Understanding. They would teach of Harmony among people in all four comers of the Earth.

Like the Ancient Tribes, they would teach the people how to pray to the Great Spirit with love that flows like the beautiful mountain stream, and flows along the path to the ocean of life. Once again, they would be able to feel joy in solitude and in councils. They would be free of petty jealousies and love all mankind as their brothers, regardless of color, race or religion. They would feel happiness enter their hearts, and become as one with the entire human race.

Their hearts would be pure and radiate warmth, understanding and respect for all mankind, Nature, and the Great Spirit. They would once again fill their minds, hearts, souls, and deeds with the purest of thoughts. They would seek the beauty of the Master of Life - the Great Spirit! They would find strength and beauty in prayer and the solitudes of life.

Their children would once again be able to run free and enjoy the treasures of Nature and Mother Earth. Free from the fears of toxins and destruction, wrought by the Yo-ne-gi and his practices of greed. The rivers would again run clear, the forests be abundant and beautiful, the animals and birds would be replenished. The powers of the plants and animals would again be respected and conservation of all that is beautiful would become a way of life.

The poor, sick and needy would be cared for by their brothers and sisters of the Earth. These practices would again become a part of their daily lives.

The leaders of the people would be chosen in the old way - not by their political party, or who could speak the loudest, boast the most, or by name calling or mud slinging, but by those whose actions spoke the loudest. Those who demonstrated their love, wisdom, and courage and those who showed that they could and did work for the good of all, would be chosen as the leaders or Chiefs. They would be chosen by their "quality" and not the amount of money they had obtained. Like the thoughtful and devoted "Ancient Chiefs", they would understand the people with love, and see that their young were educated with the love and wisdom of their surroundings. They would show them that miracles can be accomplished to heal this world of its ills, and restore it to health and beauty.

The tasks of these Warriors of the Rainbow are many and great. There will be terrifying mountains of ignorance to conquer and they shall find prejudice and hatred. They must be dedicated, unwavering in their strength, and strong of heart. They will find willing hearts and minds that will follow them on this road of returning "Mother Earth" to beauty and plenty - once more.



There will come a time when the Earth grows sick and when it does a tribe will gather from all the cultures of the World who believe in deed and not words. They will work to heal it... they will be known as the Warriors of the Rainbow.

The Festival of Culture and Heritage was obiviosly 'cancelled' do to NS being down. Since our Region is still expanding and new nations are still joining, we will be setting up a deffinate date at a time to be determined later. We appreciate your support and understanding in this matter. Also, we are still looking for others who have an intrest in Native American Culture and Heritage to head up nations for our Region.
