Join African Continent

Greetings everyone,

I'm here to promote a fine region that has suffered from dying nations and is mainly about role-playing and/or discussing topics seriously. The setting is the African Continent and that is also the name of the region.

Because of the emphasis on role-playing, the region has been made compatible with the region of the Middle East to allow interregional role-playing in a real life setting, a relatively new concept in Nationstates.
The African Continent has a regional forum (http://s3.invisionfree.com/nationstates) it shares with the Middle East.

There's a very active UN component in the region, that much like the real-life UN tries to promote peace and stability. On top of that an economic cooperation organisation (the African Economic Community) was created of which the first chapters are yet to be composed.

There are some storylines one can join into now some of the participants have disappeared:

* African Economic Community (by Che Brisio), still in its first stages. Nations that sign the Caputa-Kigali and Antananarivo-Castroton treaties can join and participate in further developing the charters all can choose to adhere to.

* The former nation of Greater Sudan ceased to exist, leaving a UN observation mission send to check for atrocities between the Sudanese and the Black African minority in the south. Malagassia and Ruanda-Urundi are still part of the UN mission; possibility to inherit this conflict.

* A severe rebellion in the south of the former nation of Sporadia, where the muslim Bal Bal tribe seeks to seccede from the homeland and install sharia law. Talks were organised by the UN but failed. A UN peacekeeping mission was prepared (Malagassia, Ruanda-Urundi) and was about to leave with a frustratingly non-interventionist mandate; possibility to take the place of the nation in turmoil.

* Conflict between isolationist and white supremacist former nation of Suidafrika and breakaway republic of Noordafrika where black africans want to install a modern democracy.

None of these storylines need to be taken over when one chooses the location of a former nation involved.

There's ample room on the regional map, so if you think you are ready for diplomacy, intrigue and interregional gameplay, come and check out African Continent.
