Also it is a drawing program for engineering. So a CAD design would be a ship rendered under that type of program. CADkey is one of these programs, along with TurboCAD.

A. It's a engineering rendering program, which I have to take classes for next semester.
or
B. A NS alliance with Doomingsland.
CAD is a program made by a company called Autodesk specifically to create massive 3D drawings. Theres AutoCAD, AutoCAD Lt, TurboCad etc.

I used to think that, but it's Crimsdale, Artica, and Doomingsland. The alliance then grew to take in more, generally undemocratic, allies.
The CAD (the official alliance home is actually here (http://www.nationstates.net/region=C A D)) is indeed such an alliance. While "Coalition Against Democracy" does actually make sense considering their war with yours truly (it makes a good backronym as well... I love backronyms...) ... I'm guessing Kahani to be correct there, because I've never seen any other explanation for it.

Theres a region called it but its pretty much empty.
The original region (actually there's two original regions, one for the senior members, the CAD Senate and just plain "CAD" for the lower members) got invaded if I'm not wrong....
