The Non-Human Unity Conference

The Non-Human Union
02-12-2003, 16:40
People of Nation States, the Non-Human Union wishes to call upon you to discuss the plight of the relationship shared between humans and non-humans. All over the NationStatesverse there are both places of hope and peace where humans and non-humans cooperate, just as there are places where both humans and non-humans suffer at each others hands, claws or flippers.

We feel that it is in the interest of peace, cooperation and common prosperity that humans and non-humans alike should come together and discuss ways on improving the relations between the two groups, working on bridging our differences and strengthening our similarities.

All nations are welcome to attend and discuss human and non-human affairs. This is not however the forum to air threats, hatred or spreading lies. We simply wish to find a place where all can come together as equals and learn trust, respect and tolerance. Member nations from the Non-Human Union are also strongly advised to take an active role in hosting the conference. Hell Bovines, Myself and Biotopia will start as conference delegates and any nation, human or non-human is more then welcome to begin discussion and debate.

We will also be paying special attention to the efforts of non-humans in attempting to define their identity in a political dimension amongst humans, other non-humans and as separate nation state entities.

So friends, I call upon you now to rejoice in both our differences and admire our similarities as we begin the conference.

3] Culture bigger then species: defining our difference and similarities between human and non-human civilisations

4] The Non-Human Union: Our aims, hopes and future direction

5] Shaking Paws: Tactics to defeat the speciests, developing trade and removing the culture barrio, ending non-human isolation

Do not define yourselves by what you are not, but rather by what you can become.

Thank you

Well hmm let's see. There is a NationStatesverse dominated by humans and then thier is a vast and mostly unrecognised and abused variety of non-human peoples.

Calling ourselves non-humans is like and African person decalring themselves African in hte middle of Europe. It doesn't mean that African is inferior, just diffeent, as is every African a unique person, but al lare Africans.

IE: even though non-humans are many species, we are all non-humans and this conference is about removing that human/non-human divide so that we are all recognised as 'persons' and 'peoples'

That's one way of looking at it. But should anyone be offended? It's the plain speaking truth. Differences exist and we can hope to work around them and strengthen our ties to one another if we get caught up in percieving imbalances and inequalities that are just part of cultural/biological difference.

Anyway - HB speaks the truth, if you can htink of something catchier then shoot

Hell Bovines and all delgates, we shall be having the conference in the 'Republikariam' , Greenfields, The 'national' City of the NHU. The Republikariam was built as an amazing and awe inspiracing building to dazzle visitors to the success of the NHU and feature a large open estate in the middle of the city.

It is a huge building and much of it acts as NHU gallery, museum but we will have private access to the secially built diplomacy wing that feature for such events and the hosting of delegates.

OOC: I'd call it the "Sentient Beings Union"

IC: Drake Yurka, upon hearing about this so-called union, decided to represent his own country and people. So he quickly hopped into the royal VTOL and flew off, the amulet around his neck keeping up his human appearance. It'd been quite awhile since he'd left the region, with its wide diversity of peoples, Drake knew that sentient species "could" cooperate, but quite a few of the so-called race of Yurka were caused by viruses released into the air. On the radar he could see the place of the conference, and he slowed down mid-air and pulled out his radio.

"Hello, I am Drake Yurka, representing the empire of Yurka," He smiled, by trying to make races more similiar they are simply eliminating diversity, "Can i please be directed to a place where i may land?"

From: Lord deGritz, Iuthia Prime, Iuthia
Subject: Invitation Accepted!
Message:

I would like to register my interest in sending a representative of Iuthia to attend this conference and learn more about the many different races and their capabilities, we ourselves have many different races in Iuthia and we boast being one of the few nations that Clangers will immigrate to thanks to our recent discovery of soup wells.

We are naturally a human nation, however, it’s hard for a nation of 1.5 billion people to not attract the attention of other races, and as such we now have Elven, Dwarven and Hobbit communities…

However, before we attend, I would like to address an issue of protocol, our Black Viper bodyguards (one of which is a Clanger) usually attend conferences and political events fully armed… however, we understand that you do not wish for weapons to be in attendance and as such we request that we may take one un-loaded Gauss Rifle as our minimum… this weapon represents our military might (never once used in war for over 100 years) and it is customary for our guards to be see with them.

Assuming all is well, we hope to see you at your conference and wish you well in the greetings of others.

James deGritz, leader of Iuthia


OOC: When you start this thing, please describe at least in brief the room we are in to talk the talk... I have alot of describtion in my posts and like to RP their reactions to lavish areas... even if it's breif I'll just bump it up a little when I enter... it's the way I do it

OOC: How about "Unconventional Sapient Species" :D

IC:

A few hours after returning the message, The Duque Mooo IV decided to attend personally at the conference. He flyied in his presidential airplane, "The Winged Cow", straight from Tanah Burung, where the "Third World Solidarity Conference" had just ended.

"Greenfields control tower, this is The Winged Cow, from Hell Bovines. Do we have permission to land?"

"Winged Cow, this is control tower. Permission granted, you're cleared on runaway 6"

And so, the strange presidential airplane, actually shaped like an enourmous cow with wings, landed on the pavement with a bumpy noise.

The door of the plane opened and from a cloud of cigar smoke, three siluethes of cows walking on their hinds emerged, the siluethes of three hell bovines. They were The Duque Mooo IV, the foreign affairs minister Nosferatu Vacatada and the duque's representative Civic Starcow.
The duque was wearing his black and burgundy royal robes, his silver crown and his golden staff, representing his political status. Sleeping on the duque's shoulder, Duquesa Fussyball, the duque's wife and a non-sentient female house hamster.
The duque smile and looked at the cityscape: "God, I love this city"
As the three cows got down the plane, a small group of aides and bodyguards, also hell bovinian, followed them.

OOC: We were looking forward to describing the Republikariam in much detail.. some might call it boasting, we pretend it's just pride 8)

To Lord deGritz, Iuthia Prime, Iuthia

We look forward to receiving your delegation; it will be an honour to the event to receive guests from such a well-known and respected nation. The fact that you have a domestic Clanger community will now doubt only ad to the respectability of what your delegates can offer to the conference.

As to the matter of weapons, we appreciate that they will not be loaded, however we will still need to pass them through security both into and out of the conference. We would also request that your security offices keep a low profile to avoid creating unwarranted tension or alarm amongst delegates. We are completely satisfied with the security arrangements, which will be, present, but discrete.

The Supreme Chancellor had nearly missed the Zeppelin leaving for the Federal Republic. “Damn Bovines” he huffed under his breath, there was some sort Biotopian fad growing in Hell Bovines and a Hell Bovine magazine wanted to do a days photo shoots of the Supreme Chancellor.

The Zeppelin headed off into the startling clear sunset and across the ocean during the night before appearing over the de facto capital by the mid morning. Below the city almost sparkled under the sunlight, the ‘city in the garden’ expression was holding true on a typically fantastic early summer day. The blue steel and glass spires shot out from dense tree canopy and the peek of multistorey buildings played against the rooftop vegetation and numerous green spaces.

A sense of pride filled the Supreme chancellor and he looked out from the air lounge of the descending Zeppelin. The Chancellor had chosen for a less flashy entry to the city, unlike numerous Biotopian’s who insisted on parachuting into other NHU cities. As he walked out of the Zeppelin he just caught the backs of the Hell Bovine delegation entering the terminal building…

The large VTOL slowed down as it approached the designated area and slowly lowered, the thrust diminishing as "legs" slowly lowered out of the craft, allowing it to gracefully land. After two minutes of silence, Drake Yurka removed his amulet, revealing something completly diffrent from the emperor most people knew about. He looked out the window and smiled, he stuck the amulet into his cloak and looked over to the pilot, a dwarf with two uzzis strapped to his chest and sunglasses.

"Alright Pete, take care of the VTOL while i'm at the conference." Drake smiled slightly, "Well lets get going! I wouldn't want to be late!"

One of Drake's bodyguards opened the VTOL's door and made his way out the door. The bodyguard was well over 8 feet tall, half of a horn growing out of the left side of his head, the other one completely gone. The troll was wearing a black suit and scanned the area was his sunglasses, he gave a thumbs up and Drake slowly climbed down the ladder, followed by a male elf guard, with gray hair and a large grissly slash against his throat.

"Ahhhh..." Drake looked around the area as a limo pulled up, "Its great to finally get out of that thing." Drake looked at the size of the limo then up at the troll before pulling out a cell phone and calling for a pickup truck.

Lizo, the our Clanger Black Viper guard is happy you feel that his presence will add more respectabilty to our delegation. He doesn't speak English or even use language we can recognise as "words" more like sounds, they use whistles to communicate and... well, I'll leave the rest for the conference, but needless to say our representative, Kayla Harmone is carrying a pull whistle and has good relations with Lizo.

Our current delegate list is as follows:

Kayla Harmone, Diplomatic Corps.
Jianto Grant, Black Viper Specialist (bodyguard)
Lizo, Black Viper Specialist (bodyguard)

They will arrive in a Hippogrith Support Craft, a Iuthian Military Craft, however we will not be offened if you keep a lock on our vehicle at all times. Security checks are also acceptable and expected, we will even provide information on the un-load Rifle our Body Gaurd will be carrying so you may evaluate it better. Both guards will be suited in evening wear military jackets designed for such occasions, it’s light armour designed to look smart. The two bodyguards will most likely stay around the edges and keep an eye out.

Regardless of your decision, we are sending our representatives now via Hippogriff support craft, here is their flight designation [press to transfer and decrypt] please do not shoot this military vehicle out of the sky.

This is what your average Clanger looks like, though Lizo will be wearing the darker uniform of the Iuthian military, so he will look… very interesting. Clangers are not magical beings, though I would have to speak to Clangerland to be sure. They defiantly are no more powerful then a human and they prefer low gravity environments, Lizo is just the odd exception, being the only Clanger in the Black Vipers… they are normally a peaceful race.

To avoid confusions: The nation of The Non-Human Union is not owned by anyone, but it's collectively owned by all the members of the NHU. This nation is not really a nation, but an organism that represents the NHU as an unified body.
IC:

Dear James deGritz,

We will be honored by the presence of iuthian delegates at our conference. You should not worry about little Lizo, as, due to nearby nation of Clangerland, we have many translators who can speak/whistle clangese. We are sure he will feel comfortable at the conference, specially if the nation of Clangerland sends its delegates.
About the Hippogrith Support Craft you shouldn't also worry - All our security and military officials have already been told that your ship is not an enemy and they won't fire to it, nor lock it. A limo is expecting your delegate's arrival at the greenfields airport.
We will be looking forward to your arrival. Best wishes,

The duque Mooo IV looked around the beautiful conference room. He saw the biotopian chancellor, Old Red, the beloved red penguinian leader, among others.
He was really anxious for the conference to start, but his wife - a small, non-sapient househamster - didn't really cared, as she was sleeping on his shoulder.

He was really relieved and thankful when he heard that a vegetartian menu was going to be served. His bovinian mind couldn't understand how anybody would practice the barbaric custom of meat-eating.

As the bovinian delegation sat down, the duque Bumped his ankle against the table. "Damn! That hurts!" said the duque while rubbing his ankle.

In a move unheard of Emperor Dusanh Decides to attend himself as well as Bring his doughtier (First princess Cuvofec) with him feling that his is the perfect time for her to learn the art of Diplomatic relations. Bringing also Defense Minister Spaurh.

While en route they relaxed in the tactical planing hall of the patrol ship.

The princess being only 16 years of age and fresh out of the academy was not fully aware of the porpoise of the mission. She was not fully aware of her peoples history as some things the abh do not willingly decouse about their past for example their Oregon or what the porpoise of the empire is. It nust have been because they were heading to a non human Solidarity conference or the fact that the picturse she has seen of landers or the fewe landers that served in the Empire's miltary lokded difrent and this had baked at her a long time but finaly she whated the whole truth evin if she had to pester her father to get it while he was doing paperwork. She looked at him "Father We are known as the Human kind Empire of Abh . Why are we sending delagates to a Non-Human Unity conference."

Spaurh pulled back in shock. "You mean you don't know You are 16 been threw the acadamay are set to take comand of a Ship in 12 months and you don't know." She than looked up at Dusanh. "I know you are the emperor but I still must say I am Shocked at you. One would think that you of all people would not such importen Information and form youre own Doughter. If you wont tell her I will"

Dusanh looked at Spaurh. "Admerl that will be quight unnesscary thank you I desired she retined her carefree inocence for as long as possible. And not to burdon her with or peoples orignal mission or mistakes" He than looke at his Doghter "My dear sweet one my aplogies for what I must now tell you we as a people are neather Human or for that fact Non human as you know the practace of genetic manipulation is relyed upon heavaly in our culture.

The Goles set out upon wewe suceffuly completed. The people that were created as the result of this project are our ancesters . They were than sent out to explore a neer by star, but on the way found a rersource we call Sord reisa. (sord is the key to faster than light travele via planerspace) Shortly afterwords they declared independence form the mother space city, and quickly began to build thire own ships and build a miltary in case displnary forces were dispached. However thease forces were never dispached but the result of this mounting fear our ancesters destryed the mother space city."

The princess pulled back "did they do this because they hated the city ? Does the empire exist out of hate? "

Dusanh looked at his doughter again "its not hate its love atleast thase were the words of our ancesters as they wached the debrease of the mother space city scater off into space. It is Becouse of the sence of the orignal mission to Protect and convey the culture of the mother space city as well as the tendancy of humans to destry themselves the empire exists. We absorb human nations that are on the brink of decovering planer space technology in order to prevent an otherwise inevitable intersteller war."

The pricess placed her head on her fathers sholder " I bleeve I understand now We act out of a atempt to save people from them selves because we feal a solidartiy and a debt to them but yet they still see us as creations made to serve humanity. What a thankless Job"

Dusanah huged his doughtr "indead it is young one indeed it is" At this time the patroll ship Emerged ffrome planespace in the Nutral Teratorys of the Non human soldarity Section

Topics of discussion:

[b]1] Speciesims in the modern context: Crimes against non-humans, humane rights and Species Correctism.[b]

2] Political solidarity amongst non-humans and humans: finding common grounds and the non-human ideology

3] Culture bigger then species: defining our difference and similarities between human and non-human civilisations

4] The Non-Human Union: Our aims, hopes and future direction

5] Shaking Paws: Tactics to defeat the speciests, developing trade and removing the culture barrio, ending non-human isolation

We will be introducing this topic and then we are loking for an open debate to share experiences and example and discuss ways in which this has been overcome. this is something every non-human has had to deal with either on a personal level or as a collective of a species. But spciesism is a two-way assult and human experiences are welcome.
