Thanks!!!! We wish all of the Nations of NationStates a very happy (insert politically correct holiday here) as well. Peace!!!!!

This shows the great joy of everyone that, no one is dissing others traditions, and no one is insulting others this is a great time, full of joy, and hapiness.

ooc: Merry Christmas all, or Merry whatever you may celebrate.

Ic: It is interesting to note that the nation of Jiggady does not openly celebrate Christmas, being an avoutly athiest nation from the government right down to the pesants, aside from the city of Caira which is an exeption. Christianity is a concept not known, nor is the idea of a fat man who flies and gives presents.

We in Jiggady have always celebrated our own form of 'christmas' during this time. Every year in December during the normal religious holidays we have continued the now holy tradition of All Pillaging Day, which ironically falls upon December 25.

On this day, every citizen from the youngest to the oldest forget all laws and conceptions of good taste and get completly soused. Citizens gather round the town square of their respective city in which the traditional lamposts are to hang off of when we drink and sing the traditional carols including "Hark The Vomiting Bum Wails", "We Three Lubbers", "Yarr" and of course "I saw three ships..."

Festivities then move into the peak of the tradition in which every citizen boards onto whatever boats they can find and sail to a city. In one joyous union of brotherhood they then set onto the city, stealing, and burning in delight.

The nation of Jiggady would also hope that in respect of this time, all in the nation states world take a day of cease fire if they happen to be fighting a war; peace and brotherhood should be on the minds of all rather than blood.
