NationStates Jolt Archive

I've been looking at regions lately and was wondering how nations choose their region from so many.

• Does size matter? :wink:
• Did you go for the one with the cool name?
• Did you look for one with a political flavour you liked?
• Did you and your friends start your own?

In my own case, I was put onto NationStates by posters from another (British) site I visit, so it seemed natural to join the region they'd started.

Go on, tell us why your region enjoys the honour of your presence! :)

I founded it, along with a bunch of folks from the http://www.democraticunderground.com message board.

This has been an OOC post.

I joined The Jolly Failures because my brother founded it. At some stage I'll create my own region (with website) and move there with some friends.

this thread probably belongs to general, but to hell with it im posting anyway. the region this nation is in is built around people from the http://www.little-gamers.com chat room, which i'm an op in :twisted: and i've got a puppet in a region i selected because i respect the players in it. :)

I joined Mercia when I followed the newly-created RadioWorld FM303 there, via Endamar. It was a large region, and had recently won a war, so I figured it could be exciting. And boy, has it been exciting! :grin:

I was pretty lucky. A lot of people just drift at random and never really settle in a place with a nice atmosphere.

I founded my region Planet Monkey (http://www.nationstates.net/cgi-bin/index.cgi/page=display_region/region=planet_monkey). Some of the nations there are run by people I know in RL, some are not.

I was sent a 'gram... and now i am a Col. in the army.

I chose my original region (Alpineholm) on the basis of a TG. It seemed nice - and it was. After several months, I moved to Lancre, after posting a request for a new region . Alpineholm molded me, but was small and not so active. Lancre is nice and active. And it seems to fit me nicely..

I choose my own....Plutopia is such a cool name...... :P

I like my region because, like me, many are economically amazing, heavily armed and inebriated much of the time.

I put an ad out saying I am moving from my old region and told the people, start placing ads.

The APTO won, as they had the best grouping of RPers and the right number of nations, not so few as we are all on the top ten everyday and not so much that we seem to get buried in the lists.

That and I like those guys already from previous RPs.

Made my own :D

Hello,
I enjoy the WWSeti Region WWSeti Region Telegram and News service (http://wwseti.tripod.com). First I created it and the second is all great nations that have joined WWSeti region . Many of the nations are also involved with SETI@Home . If you like welcome all of you to join us. The only rules are NO WAR MONGERS . (See all rules at the website.) We all are interested in space and space traveling. We are all working together to create one of the best region in the world.
So, come over and see our great region and then join us. How to join? Just go to “The World”, the insert “WWSETI” in region, then “join”.

Thank you for listening to me,

Dun't know really. I'm pretty interested in Asian culture, so i searched it, and been there from my first millions.

I was originally in North America (For a few days) and I didn't really like the people there, so when one country started yelling about a USSR country that was attacking one of his puppets in Africa. I then checked out this USSR and they seemed to be more relaxed, tolerant, and friendly than the North Americans (also I lean toward the liberal side). So I defected there and have stayed there ever since.

I created the Mondiale, a small alliance of fascist nations on the same continent, after an idea from my friend Malacor. At first it was just us; then, over the following three days, a few other friends also joined NationStates and became a part of the Mondiale.

I just made my own. But I'm prolly gon' move out soon. I only have like 7 nations.

I joined Mercia when I followed the newly-created RadioWorld FM303 there, via Endamar.
Yes, I like the RadioWorld broadcasts - they give you a feeling of what's going on in some of the regions, including us and some of our allies ... and enemies.

I wonder why they don't broadcast in more areas?
