At 342 (as of 12/16/03) 10000 Islands is the second largest user-created region, and we are always looking for more members to help make our region better place.
We are well known throughout the NationStates community, and we have made many efforts to help regions in need, using the Ten Thousand Islands Treaty Organization (TITO), one of NationStates largest military forces.
If you are a new nation, 10000 Islands is the perfect region for you. Soon, when our government structure is announced, we will have a Minister of Education that will teach you how to go about life in NationStates.

A brief history of TITO:

"The Ten thousand Islands Treaty Organization or TITO was formed in the beginning days of the 10000 Islands. The founding members of Grub, Lyonesse, Blue Canaria, Titanica, and TheSensitiveNewAge all banded together for the mutual defense of the then tiny region.

As time went on, the 10000 Islands grew slightly, but the region was still small. One night, after several new nations had entered the 10000 Islands, a nation by the name of New Boniventure posted a warning that our region may be the aim of an attack by the Empire of Power.

The Empire of Power was a region roughly five times the size of the 10000 Islands and was known for attacking a region and then ejecting all of the native countries.

Thanks to the early warning, the stealth attack was confirmed. As Empire of Power nations flooded into the 10000 Islands, the future looked bleak as we were heavily outnumbered. The only hope was go to outside unknown regions and ask them for their help.

The call for help was sent out to many regions that night, and thankfully many responded. Some of the regions that generously lent their help were the Urbanites, Texas, the Heartland, The Rejected Realms Army, and several other regions. When the NationStates update came, our side was victorious by just a single endorsement. The battle went on for two more days, but help flooded in and the region that dwarfed us in size was soundly defeated. Without the help of those outside regions, the 10000 Islands would have been defeated.

As a result of that time, the 10000 Islands formally signed alliances with Texas and the Urbanites, and established friendly relations with the other regions that lent their help. TITO's goal after that attack was to not only provide for the defense of the 10000 Islands, but to also aid other regions when they are unfairly attacked.

Recently, the 10000 Islands has helped once again to defeat the Empire of Power when they attacked our ally in the OSA, the Moonlit Islands. Other recent operations were in the Pacific trying to defeat the corrupt ruler, Francos Spain. We were actually on the winning side on that battle, but the NationStates Mods reversed the results because of a technicality. TITO also has a complex intelligence operation but details are classified."

I too will testify that 10000 Islands is a region that

* welcomes new nations warmly,
* helps them find them find their way around the game,
* stands proudly for freedom, independence, and healthy respect for others,
* and will be very ready to thump the baddies when they try to mess with other innocent regions.

Come to 10000 Islands--let Freedom ring!
