Welcome back! Though I've only been here for a month it's nice to have new members join or see old members return. About a week ago the Fennian Union also decided to start playing again!

 

[Rheinbund]

Welcome Asylan, and welcome Guanabara. I hope you both enjoy your stay here.

I'm Dimitris, the same guy that has Valkany. This is the second nation I've created and I'm thinking of making it my primary nation in the future or having it as a secondary neutral nation to help other nations, something like a little Switzerland or Vatican city.

Just confirming that this is my nation. And no by the way that isn't Golden Dawn's flag I made that on my own before GD even existed.

The Golden Dawn was formed in 1985. And yes, that is the Golden Dawn flag. There's no way around it. When you see a swastika you don't think of it's Hindu origins. That flag, although a slightly different colouration, was flown all over international news as the flag of the Golden Dawn. And now you're using it for a Greek nation.


EDIT: I was wrong, your flag is the same colour as the party flag:

I designed that in 2009 before they got big. Also that's a meander it's on almost every ancient Greek building and pottery piece. It's also the emblem for the ancient Greeks and specifically my tribe of Greeks the Ionians (i'm talking RL). They abused it in the same form that Hitler abused the swastika but just like Hindus still use the Swastika, Greeks still use the meander on official state documents. Also that's the party logo you're talking about the flag is red, white & black. Finally I drew that using paint (I think near the top left edge you can see a little mistake I had made which got me really pissed off back then) so no it isn't the GD flag.

Wait? You are the same player that plays Valkany? Is it legal to have two nations on the Forum by the same player?

 

[Natal]

Yes, it is, as long as you don't create your second nation just to help your first nation and intervene for it.

 

[Portusgalia]

In the portuguese forum (several editions of it) it was for many times banned that practice! That's why I asked

Really? That's unfair if you ask me. Anyway I guess not every forum is as tolerant as ours

 

[Portusgalia]

Thats because some people used second nations to support their main nations, and didn't assume their selves on the Forum. Thats why that measure was taken

Hi, it took me a while to find this site back again. Thought I might look around here again, looks like things have changed a bit. Not sure if I needed to register my name as a nation or something, so I just defaulted to my internet name.

We have our usernames set for our nations. There's a thread called the ''Admin to-do list'' where you can ask to change it to whatever, gets done quick enough.

Also, Welcome!

If you have any questions on how to get started, I'm the mod tasks for new and returning folks, so you can ask my any questions you might have. Other than that, enjoy the forums!

 

[Sixia]

Oh I see, that's very good. Though I could have sworn the old site had the ability to set our username through the control panel.

I know regional ethnicity is a big matter, so I was wondering what would the ethnicity be in that big white plot surrounded by Kyiv, Franken, Swabia, Galich and Tyrrhenia? Would that area be considered the Middle East here? And just how much flexibility do we have with ethnicity?

I'll admit that I'm not very knowledgeable around this era (or history in general compare to many of the users here), so I hope nobody minds if I have some stupid questions about this era if I decide I can conjure something up. Right now I'm just thinking of setting up a Chinese country right around Yujin, because relating to Chinese society is something I'm more well versed in (just a brief overview). Though I'm always fond of being around a lot of neighbouring nations like that big pile of nations what would be considered as Europe here.

Ehh the area you saw the next to Franken would be a more slavic/germanic region? Our ''middle east is on the northern coast of the ''Himyar'' continent. See where 'Jurzy' is? That's a 'middle eastern' nation.

Also if you were interested in a chinese culture nation look no farther than that 'Yujin' region.
