Unofficial NationStates Region Directory


Introduction

I have noticed a lot of people new to this game being confused as to where they should go once they have created their nation. Many probably choose to stay in whichever Pacific in which they spawned or as I myself did, go to a few regions at random before settling on a reasonable one, not really having any idea of which regions out there match their interests. Some create their own, but often this is a study in isolation - around 40% of regions in NationStates contain only one nation. Then there are the endless recruitment telegrams new nations receive. With over 11,000 regions from which to choose and not much of a search function, it is daunting indeed.

I would like to make the process of choosing a suitable region easier. This directory will tell you which regions fit into which categories of politics, theme or method of game-playing, which regions are heavily involved in the UN, which regions have many members who role-play, and how many members each region had when I began to compile this directory. Hopefully, I will be able to update the information once every month or so.

Explanatory notes

Note 1: My time is limited, so only regions containing 35+ nations will be included. There are a couple of hundred of these as it is. I will add any regions that subsequently rise above this mark and demonstrate stability. Any regions which are included and then decline in numbers for a long period of time will be removed. As this is not intended to be an exhaustive list, only these significant regions will be included, with a handful of exceptions which I have decided to make. There is scope for amendments and suggestions, see notes below, but my decision is final.

Note 2: Regions have been placed in categories according to their attitudes and activities, and are often listed under more than one category. The categories in which they are listed, or not, depend on what impression I got by visiting the Region Page, off-site homepages/forums where applicable and searching for Forum threads in which the Founder and/or UN Delegate have been active. Similarly, this is how I assessed their UN and RP involvement (note that I count IC chat on the regional message boards as RP, not just forum activity, and UN activity as regional involvement in UN affairs by means of regional message board, off-site forum and UN Forum discussion). In many cases, I also drew on my personal experiences of the regions in the game.

Note 3: If you are the Founder or UN Delegate of a featured region and wish to inform me of your region's UN or RP activities, or lack thereof, please do so at wave_effect@yahoo.co.uk. Also if you feel you have been left out of a category, or been placed in the wrong one. Helpful corrections and clarifications would make my job easier, as at the moment I am having to research all this by myself, although those of you with detailed Factbook Entries and off-site boards have helped me a great deal. Reports of broken or misdirected links are also welcome. So please, send me any constructive feedback you have.

Note 4: Having said that, unreasonable complaints will not get much of a response. This takes time and effort, and I have had to make a lot of judgements and compromises. By all means point out an error or oversight as described above, but lecturing me on your politics with righteous indignation will help little.

Note 5: Since region sizes change constantly, I am using the numbers taken from the server on 3 January 2004 by Ballotonia of Holland (http://www.nationstates.net/cgi-bin/index.cgi/target=display_region/region=Holland), whom I wish to thank for providing this infomation. Region sizes will be updated periodically when I have the time. If your region was caught in an embarassingly depleted state, too bad, but you may draw some comfort from the fact that if it is featured, it is 1337.

Note 6: As you will discover soon enough, some regions have a dominant language other than English. Respect that.

Note 7: In attempting to join these regions, you may run into regional password protection. Such policy is unpredictable and cannot be incuded here as a feature. If it happens to you, I suggest sending a telegram to the Founder, UN Delegate or other official in that region.

Note 8: Finally, remember, this is only a very rough guide for players new to the NS World game. Just a quick reference. It is never going to be perfectly accurate. But if I did put UN or RP where they should not be, tell me.

Yay, this again.

This was actually very helpful.

Could links to Regional forums be included?
If so: http://pebo.ath.cx/europe/index.php

If not, I'l make a seperate thread (hopefully stickified) for regional websites + forums.

It would be too much work for me, but if someone were to compile a list of the off-site forum URLs, where applicable, of the regions mentioned, and post it here, I could add it in and give the contributor full credit. It would save space that way.

I'll start a new thread here on it...

I think the SCDT forum has links to some of them

http://sarda2.proboards22.com/

Errr...why is my region listed as Fascist?

damn god it.... my region is 6 nations short of a listing. c'mon TG, Adelaide used to have around 42 nations. does that still count?

Why is - Mercia: The next generation, in bold?

Why is - Mercia: The next generation, in bold?
For that matter, the link points to "Mercia" (the original), and it only has 3 nations.

It's TG's region. :P

Thanks TG.

(Its in bold cause were better than all of you LOL :lol: )
Just kiddin.

Oops, fixed the link. It must have been like that for a month, since I used an earlier template for that bit. Ah well. We have 89 nations now anyway. 8)

Yes 89 for now...Hopefully soon in the 100s.

TG updates it once a month or when ever he can..he will add yours the next time he updates.

Region: IADF (International Allied Defense Federation)
Regional Delegate: Credonia
Category: Defensive Alliances

your missing Inner Sphere

Bump

your missing Inner Sphere

AGAIN..TG (tactical grace) updates about once a month...So your region will be added once the update happens ..no sooner.

8) A Helpful Non NS Mod 8)

Relax, it's a sticky, no need to bump it. :wink:

Any regions meeting the criteria set out in the preambulatory notes will be added having been selected by Ballotonia's script on the day it is run. Which happens roughly monthly.

In the meantime, I welcome suggested amendments to existing entries from natives of those regions.

Relax, it's a sticky, no need to bump it. :wink:
.

the post doubled and then i couldnt delete it so i just bumped it LOL

TG, my region, Adelaide, is back to being above 35 (it sits at 36 now infact) so could you put it in the directory, sweet mod? Adelaide is a real place, but it is no longer thought of as that. it is more miscellaneous then anything else. so its your decision which category it belongs to.

we're not RPers, and i think the vast majority doesn't give a stuff about the UN, and i forget what the asterisk stands for...

sex to you

Yes thats the good thing about having a forum mod in the region specially one that does stuff.

Yes, I suppose it is a good thing. :D

Atlantic is a region crashers alliance. I'd also like to protest the use of crashers, it is a framed and biased term.

Once again we would like to put forth Sparrow as a candidate on this list. We have over 200 nations and have persisted through invasion and catastrophe. We noticed the list was updated on the 29th and we were left off again.

At last count, The New Meritocracy has risen to 176 nations, thanks to the information about our region being posted upon the NS News. If you could update the population, we would appreciate it.

-Lord Tom
Envoy from the Meritocracy

Ahoy, me hearties. The region of NationStates, due to the tastebud-tingling-terrificaciousness of its brownies, has now increased in size from 275 to (at last count) 517 nations. Just a note for the next update.

People the nations will be noted in due time.
again let me say this: THE UPDATE HAPPENS ONCE A MONTH!
When the update happends everything will be updated. ...Notice TG hasnt even updated Mercia the next generation which is his region..cause he does everything at once!

That's fine. I was just trying to make things simpler.

Put me there under communist.

hello this is just a reminder, you must be really busy so think of this a reminder written i the side margins, to add 0000 Middle Earth 0000 I thought you might have forgotten us, or confused us with Middle Earth, which is more than understandable...it's expected. Thank you again for your time and great effort, to bring some order to chaos.

Emperor Dalith of United Middle-Earth,
Region of 0000 Middle Earth 0000

hello, i am the un delegate of the quareling states. we have 68 nations. we are active in the un and active in rp (currently we are fighting aliens on the sunplanet) please add us to the list under omnifarious or region crashers. thankyou

Your name means "Red Fish".

plz add

Region: IADF (International Allied Defense Federation)
Regional Delegate: Credonia
Category: Defensive Alliances

Your name means "Red Fish".


yes, my name does mean red fish

Not to be confused with red poison

Baath Arab States is a region of nations who follow the Baathist manifesto. Join us and help make Arab socialism work!

:D

Can you add The Realm of Criminology to the list? It specializes in justice issues and is planning to develop a court system that anyone in NationStates can use.

Could the region Equilism be added? We have 90 nations residing in our region, we have different ideologies but peace, freedom and democracy are important main issues.

Time to update TG. My region is finally big enough ( :P ), Lazarus is well over 100 nations, and Mu-Mu's full name is "Free Radicals of Mu-Mu" ("Free Radicals" is not part of the pretitle. :twisted: )

It's coming soon.

Beware subcontractors. They tend in turn to hire sub-subcontactors and before you know it some poor kid in a 3rd world country will be slaving away at updating your directory and make all sorts of silly errors in it. ;)

Heh, true, and I will take a look before endorsing it. But I am confident it is in safe hands.
