NationStates Jolt Archive

I am really new here and poking my head around is leading to several quick questions. I looked through the Noob read this now thread, I liked the easy resouce of it. The only problem is the threads go on for several pages, not my idea of a perfect friday night. I was thinking about the idea of war, and in my religous state war is not an option, but funding terrorism that is fueled through religion would be well taken. From an economic standpoint what kind of effect would such a militeristic cult have, pos or neg? Also if there is a seperate militery of these brainwashed freaks, would it be realistic they could hold a dayjob?

What I would really like is a link to somewhere that has this and more spelled out in the first post and not a bunch of "that is great thanks!" afterwords that has to be searched through to find one little thing. Thanks and please don't abuse the poor little n00b(me).

//excuse my grammer and whatnot, its past my bedtime and i missed my nap :(

Your country, your business. Its far more important that you keep things consistent, interesting, and well written.

There are lots of nations with terrorists of one sort or another as an arm of official policy. Unfortunately, most of them are played by people unable to spell terrorist the same way twice in succession.

The stereotypical RL terrorist is an embittered young male with too much time on his hands. Some of them would have "loose" jobs- the sort of jobs superheros have in comic books with a lot lower pay. If they were happy with their lot on life, they wouldn't be terrorists.

If you would prefer to do it differently, it would behoove you to come up with a good reason why the terrorists do what they do and why your government would put up with such inherently unstable types. Again, imagination and good writing are more important than anything else.
