I was looking for a picture of Bloom County’s basselope and a nation had it as their national animal. After a look around I stayed.

My brother set up a nation and sent me the link so I could see it.

I thought his liberal hippy loving policies were far too nice and wanted to create my own dark little world of absolute power.

The people from The Conclave Message Board (http://www.theconclave.tk) started a region (naturally named The Conclave). I decided to come here, and have since become so addicted to the game that I've made two other nations (and have an idea for a fourth but haven't implemented it yet).

Someone posted a "sticky" on the Glenn Beck message board and linked it to the homepage. I spent nearly two months running a country before I checked out the forums...now i'm sorry that I did...there's a lot of influencing that needs [as I se it of course] to get done around here!

Funny you should mention that... I found the link to NationStates at a fine Baldur's Gate Customs and Mods forum called BG2 Customs, (http://bg2customs.com/) a quiet, fanaticism-free little hamlet tucked away near the far edge of the internet.
