Hi, there are some facts about my country:

The People's Republic of The Four Serpants is a small, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its burgeoning Seaserpant population. Its quiet, industrious population of 12 million are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
Voting is voluntary, cars are banned, nudity is frowned upon, and it is illegal to make racist remarks in public. Crime is relatively low, thanks to a well-funded police force. The Four Serpants's national animal is the Seaserpant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the tuki.
Civil Rights:Very Good
Economy:Fair
Political Freedoms:Some

I'm an eager little state with wery high potencial. Now I'm laying fundament for my people. :)

Why hello welcome first things first you must decide to be FT (Future Tech and use spaceships) MT (Modern Tech with AK-47's and Tanks) or PT (past Tech with swords) FT is arguablly most fun MT is easy and PT is easiest. PT dosen't have many threads tho I would encourage you to join FT

Hello, and welcome to the fantastic world(s) of NationStates! While you are perfectly free to do just about whatever the heck you want to do with your nation, I would humbly suggest that you read some of the stickies we have here. Among others, Euroslavia's Series of Helpful Hints (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=408855). This sticky has a lot of helpful hints and links to threads with more tips, among others a informative guide in how to Roleplay (RP for short) and other good hints and tips. Good luck!

Oh I disagree, going the low tech way , a mixture of both past tech and madern tech can be great fun!
(Especially if you get a region of nations with higher tech levels that are willing to take you on for your uniqueness and 'specialities')

hallo welcome to the game........FT is fun but expect alot of lasers from space and lightspeed ship popin out of nowhere.....i perfer MT because when someone talks about a weapon and its capabilities i get what they are talken about.plus i love the timeline also what most people do is to make more then one nation so they can do MT and FT.

Hallo to all. Thanks for such a warm welcome. I think I'm a Modern Tech state, though FT suonds quite impressive. I try to simulate the real world as close as i can so MT is my choice. Cotland thank's for the tip, I already read it.

Welcome to NationStates. I reccomend going MT, as it's not so technical and you don't have to sit there for 5 hours trying to think of a name for new tech your making up. Besides, AK-47's vs. G36's is fun. If you need help setting up a military quickly, check out the storefronts around the forums. Leafanistan's storefront is very good, and if you need cheap equipment, try the Pudite storefront. If you need stuff in between, try mine, Asgarnieu's, or other ones you might find. We hope your enjoy your stay, which hopefully will last longer than 1 week. :p

Welcome to the boards. Always good to see another nation based in the real modern world, as it seems there are fewer of us every day. If you're looking to develop your nation beyond what you can do by bargain-shopping the storefront threads, I'll be glad to help out. If, that is, you're willing to accept the help of an "immoral and corrupt" capitalist nation. :)

Just for having read the stickies before posting, we are willing to offer you a 10% discount on all purchases from The Nine MIlitary Storefront (link is in signature) which offers a variety of military equipment to cover all aspects of fighting a modern tech war.

Wow, greetings you all :) I'll accept every help i can get "immoral and corrupr" :) I think it is too early for my to go to war, but my police and Department of the Interior would be very glad to update armoury, besides, I have yet to overcome very hard challanges of everyday life. See you all soon.

The bioloical fanaticists of Jenrak are happy to welcome such a promising and eager young nation into the exciting world of NationStates, (OOC: Even though you're probably older than me, unless you're under 17), and despite Zactarn Prime's helpful recommendation, you can choose to have different 'lives' by Roleplaying in different tech level threads.

If you ever seek any potential chemical or biological weaponry, I, Jenrak is one of the foremost in researching biological and chemical weaponry, so I can give you them at a discount, mainly because you are following forum etiquette and have read the stickies, which many new people mistakenly don't.

That would probably mean that your nation is not updating properly. You should probably request help with that in the Technical forum.
