A new planet capable of supporting human life has been found! The North Mack Exploration Division of the Space Fleet has found this planet. It is one of five planets around the star Beta Cantalet approximatly 124 light years from Earth.

^^^New Terra Landmass^^^

Upon discovery of New Terra, as the colonized planet was named, Orbital Weapons Platforms were placed around it, to prevent any other nations from attempting to seize New Terra. North Mack Has begun the movement of its population to this new planet, which will be completed within 10 years. However, this still leaves an excess of land.

North Mack has opened New Terra to other nations for colonization. Any claims will be read through, and permission will be given pending a full background check of the Nation submitting the claim. Any nation is allowed two major landmasses, and three small.

BASIC STATS NEW TERRA
Gravity: .934 of Earth Normal
Day: 27.4 Hours
Year: 453.75 Days

The Sceptical States are interested in this proposal, but would like to know the policies of our possible neighbours. We ourselves are socialists, but accept anyone but corrupt dictatorships.

Yours,
Chancellor Rea of the Federation of Sceptical States

We would be amenable to transplanting some of our Mardukans to colonise the equatorial regions of this new planet, if you are willing to accept them.

We are interested in your propisition, we will take ANY landmasses just as long as their not in the top-left of that diagram. We have also recently renovated our starship fleet so if you take us you will have one of the newest fleets aroung guarding your backs.

Hope to See You on New Terra Soon,
G. Rogerson, Supreme Chancellor, The Armed Republic of Crack Worshipers

to The Sceptical States. All nations will undergo full background and historical checks to make sure no nation will attempt anything stupid (such as trying to take over the entire planet, destroying the planet, and so on.) however, if a nation passes their checks, they will be admitted, no matter their government type.

to Mini Miehm, we will be happy to admit you pending a Background and Historical check on your nation.


Please specify the areas you would like to colonize.

North Mack, I can asure you that the Sceptical States mean no harm to the region, and in fact would be more than willing to comply with your requirements. In answer to my original question, what is the stance of your government on civil rights, socilaism and liberty?

I have discussed the move with the interior cabinent, and with your permission would like to move to the southern ice shelf of New Terra. Is this land habitable? If not, the Geothermal island would be acceptable. In return the Sceptical States pledge their full military and idealogical support of North Mack.

Chancellor Rea of the Federation of Sceptical States

in response to The Sceptical States. the government of North Mack allows North Mackians to live as they wish. They have many freedoms, and may live thier lives as they choose. However, if certain individuals cause problems and damage the productive flow of North Mack, those individuals must be removed from the main stream of society for the saftey of North Mackians, and North Mack in general. The NM government is devoted to insuring the future survival and productivity of NM, at any cost.

please let me know if you need any more information on the north mack government.

Could we get Stalin land too?

Is new Terra actually a place? I tried to move there but it does not exist

Thank you.

I'll take Mehico.

New Terra is now an actual region


The Southern ice shelf is habitable, it is 400 feet thick, and has not shifted in over 5608 years (as my geologists tell me)

Makaar will colonise North Southernland with a view to expand peacefully. A number of Stellar Marines and Royal Space Corps personnel will arrive to survey the site before civilians begin moving in.

BUMP

The Holy Empire would like the land of "Big Bear" researved for us. We will send a ship with troops and supplies as soon as we finish building our first Space Navy Vessel. we also ask to the amount of land we are talking about, in Square Miles.

um... i cant give you square miles, because there is no 'Big Bear' landmass. there is bear (claimed by NM) and Big Brother, but no Big Bear. sorry.

BUMP
yeah, like it says above...

I would now like to move in. Is it acceptable for me to have the southern ice shelf, stalin land and the geothermal island. i will move to the ice shelf now and i await ur approval on the other areas.

Chancellor Rea

Stalin Land and Geothermal Island have been approved for colonization. move on in at any time.

OFFICIAL MESSAGE
From: Emporer Shaz Bot
To: Leader of North Mack

Sorry for my Secritariat. He doesn't know shit about reading maps. He gets lost on his way to work.

Anyways. He ment to ask how big the Big Brother land mass is.

We are interested in Canadia and Little Italy. If you would allow us to settle these landmasses we would be greatful.
Thankyou for your time.

The chancellor now resides in the ice shelf, but wonders where North Mack are. He cannot see them through the imperial telescope.

General Heffernan, aide to the Chancellor

as i stated earlier, New Terra is almost the same size as Earth. to find aroximate land size, just superimpose a map of Earth, and compare sizes. (thats because im too lazy to actually look it up myself, but hey, it works!)

North Mack is located on the Territories marked in Red on the Map

OOC: but on the homepage there is only me there. u are at cin headquarters

yes. although North Mack is located on New Terra, we reside in CIN Headquarters as we are part of the Commonwealth of Independant Nations. North Mack may move in the near future, as the CIN is loosley distributed across the galaxy, not just in CIN headquarters

Green Sun has claimed New America and asks if these 'Great Rivers' on the planet are salt or freshwater.

We will also have our geologists study the planet for any breakthroughs in its unique shape.
OOC: North Mack, with your size, an Orbital Platform would be impossible. We can sell you some, though, for a cheap price.

Green sun, New America has been claimed already by North Mack already. as to the Orbital platforms, North mack received MASSIVE funding from another, much larger nation early in their history, durring a time of war. The Orbital platforms used durring that war were not destroyed, but rather moved around New Terra.

also, the rivers are indeed strange. the3 main rivers (north, south, great) are salt water. the smaller, interwoved rivers are, for some reason, freshwater. North Mack geologists are not sure of why this is the way it is, but it is.

OOC: So am i allowed to have "Big Brother"?

In that case we claim Berlin Duo and Elbow Island.

One of our Oceanographers has a theory on why tehre is no salt water on New Terra:
"Since there are no living rganisms in the water or on the land outside of plants, there is little giving the great waters their salinity. Without volcanic activity or animals or other major processes to give the water their salts, or organisms to take it away, the waters stay fresh."
But since the main rivers are salt and the smaller ones are not, he cannot give an explaination until he has been able to map the ocean floors.

Shazbotdom has been approved, as has Green Sun.

Makaar will colonise North Southernland with a view to expand peacefully. A number of Stellar Marines and Royal Space Corps personnel will arrive to survey the site before civilians begin moving in.

OOC: So where are we with this? I'm going to have to hurry you, my nation is on the brink of Interstellar War. This was posted on the first page as one of the first replies, at 5:59 PM today.

Shazbotdom would also like the Following Continents:
Continent of Liberty
Continent of Little Brother
Continent of Beta 3
Continent of Tomohawk

Just wondering but if Georgeland is avaliable for claim by us we would like to have the island. If not we are willing to buy it.

Makaar would also request Holmes, New Montana, Arkansas, and Arrowhead.

Otagia is willing to pay a sum of 1 trillion ($1,000,000,000,000) USD for Bear (the planet, not the continent).

We also would appreciate the landmasses of Illinois and Idahoe, and would be willing to pay for them.

The Nord-Scandinavian small space-fleet are now orbiting New-Terra, and asks for permission to colonize Arkansas and Idaho, or Illinois and ArHd, or New Montana and Arrowhead, due to an election the last month, about whereever or not leave Earth, which the Leave Earth side won 84% to the 16% stay home.

Nord-Skandinavia: you have been given Illinois and Arrowhead. (ArHd is abbreviation for Arrowhead, the small island is part of arrowhead, so you get it too.

Otagia: We have accepted your puchace of Bear, with one exception. There is a small mining colony owned by North Mack on Bear, which is to e left alone.

Makaar: you have been given Homes and New Montana, but not Arkansas and arrowhead.

Phalanix: Georgeland has been given to you.

Shazbotdom: you have been given Beta 3 and Tomahawk, but not Little Brother and Liberty

Thank you for your co-operation. Within several days PSN ships will be defolding to land forces and collonists on the four islands.

Thank you, our colonyships will begin colonization emediatly. However, if anyone disturb or acts aggressive against my colonists, OR having military units on my lands/air, Nord-Skandinavia will be responsible for any damage that unit may get.

However, I do have some unsolved problems in Europe, and it will take some time before we will move whole Nord-Skandinavia there.

Again, thank you for your generous offer.

-the President of Nord-Skandinavia.

bumpity. We still have land left, claim it before its gone!

BUMPeroni for North Mack

Ok, so, Nord-scandanavia, I've decided I want Arrowhead, and I'm going to take it from you, I'll make a thread for this if you're willing to accept the attack.

The Democratic Republic of Liensten would like to claim Niagra and Greater Niagra as their own.

Liensten has been approved and may move in at any time.

badamp a damp - do do, do do do,

We still have land down at New Terra, so dont hesitate to claim it for yourself or it will be gone!

Come on people! Free land! how can you not want that!?

The Holy Imperial Empire of Rea Dan requests permission to take control of the four uninhabited western isles. If the most generous nation of Northern Mack denies us to have all four, we will settle with the two largest. I am sure if you check the background of our empire you will find nothing bad for you to worry about.

-Noel Rayth, Minister of Foriegn Relations

Rea Dan has been approved and con move in at any time.

Readanian civilian ships, escorted by two victory-class Star Destroyers, will arrive within the next day or so. We are glad to come to a quick agreement on this issue.

-Noel Rayth, Minister of Foriegn Relations

The nation of Quere wishes to know which lands are avalable (I don't want to read it because I have to go). Also, if none are availble, we would like that peninsuale jutting out from the north ice capr near Arkansas, seeing as it would be close to land. We wish it for study and a militarial base.

Thank you

the islands Mini, Arkansas, and Idaho are open.

I would like the island of Arkansas. F0ur pages, land left? Sweet! Arkansas, though, please? Thanks!!!

Ok, youre cleared for Arkansas. you may move in at any time.

k, do I post it here or elsewhere?

well, theres really no area for posts, there is a region though, its 'New Terra' if you want to move there...

Nah, I'm already in one...thanks, tho!

A nation check was made today to make sure that no land was being misused. Unfortunatly, The Spetecal States have appeared to be gone. Therefore, all land that was formerly SS's, is now open!

Claim it Now!


Also announcing the new New Terra World Organization! Open to any and All nations who own land on new terra! Located HERE!! (http://ntwo.proboards67.com)

a telegram will be sent to every New Terra nation within a week letting them know about it, to increase membership.

OOC: Dibs. :D

IC: Otagia gladly lays claim to the land abandoned by the Spetecal States.

We currently lack FTL transport, but eagerly await any more claimable planets as it is most probable that either FTL or stasis will be invented by the time one is.

sure thing. do youe have any specifics in mind or just any planet?

ATTENTION ALL POTENTIOL COLONISTS

on February 15th, a check will be made of all nations who hold land in New Terra. any nation that has been deleted will have its land revoked and opened to the public. Considering that when i checked, the entire REGION was gone, id say that quite a large section of land will be opening up.

RETURN ON THE 15TH TO CLAIM YOUR LAND!!!!

!!!!ATTENTION!!!!

The search has been done a day early, and has turned up the following results.

THE FOLLOWING NATIONS NO LONGER EXIST

Quere
Nord-Scandinavia

As such, their land has been siezed by North Mack and is open again to colonization! 5 brand new islands open, in addition to the ones already open. remember, the limit is 4 smaller islands, or 2 large ones. since there ar no large ones left, 4 small will do!

CLAIM IT NOW!!!

DR requests South Ice Shelf, Stalinland and GeoThermalLand.

your request had been approved. you may move in at any time.
