Bureau of External Affairs, Laeralsford, Laeral February 8, 2020 "The suspect still is refusing to talk," the BEA interrogator said. "Still insists that she's Sharon Quan, a Kerlian refugee and employee of the Kerlile Human Rights Initiative." "So there's still absolutely nothing out of her?" Espoi...

Althea, Laeral January 25, 2020 Espoir Landais, one of the Bureau of External Action agents investigating Auroras in Laeral, was sick and tired of papers. On the desk in front of her at the BEA house in Althea were stacks of relevant information regarding the Kerlile Human Rights Initiative, a non-...

I feel that the Free Land of the IDU should be the size of a city, but not quite so small as LOM seems to be suggesting above. Given all of the various functions that the capital territory would need that Bears mentioned above, I think it's likely that we'd see the city start to develop beyond just ...

Hi all! I haven't really gotten a chance to be active since moving to the IDU, but I figured I could put my programming and the NationStates API to good use by potentially developing custom census data (think niceness, charmlessness, etc.)! I'm sure at first the data might be a little rough, but wi...

While greatly appreciative of Xiomera's contributions to the region, Laeral casts its vote for Lauchenoiria, for the reasons listed in her nomination.

President Liu stood up and nodded in recognition as President Tyagi-Kennedy - ETK, as she was commonly known- finished her statement. Liu was fond of the younger woman; however much her political opponents might criticize her for it, ETK's academic demeanor lent itself well to one of the most level-...

Name of Nominee: Lauchenoiria Name of Nominator: Laeral Tribute to the Nominee: Lauchenoiria is an obvious choice for this honor because of her tremendous contributions to the IDU as a community. In the roleplay field, Lauchenoiria was among the most important nations in establishing the IDU's role...

As a heads up in case people are curious - I'm considering creating an additional nation that will operate as my puppet nation. I have no puppet nations in existence, so this will be a new endeavor for me. The nation will likely be a small Monte Carlo-like casino haven bordering Zamastan - it will ...

Written with the assistance of the talented  Shen . Laeralsford Espoir Lanais's first day partnered with Joseph Wu had gone exactly according to the procedure she'd learned in training. There had been a meeting in a conference room at the BEA's headquarters, where she'd watched with the other dozen...

9:30, Headquarters of the Bureau of External Affairs Laeralsford, Laeral "Hey, Wu?" a voice called through the office door. "Your new partner's here." "Send them in," Wu said. He set down the file folder he'd been carrying as he paced around his office, and shut his laptop screen. His office was a ...

I'd like to make sure this is published at some point, yes.

Reading "Beyond Charlottesville" by former Virginia governor Terry McAuliffe, describing his perspective on the Charlottesville protests in 2017, and "An Indian Dynasty" by Tariq Ali, discussing the lives of four Indian Prime Ministers of the Nehru-Gandhi family.

Any Brandon Sanderson fans in the community? Brilliant fantasy writer. Currently reading the second book of his Mistborn series. I'm a big Sanderson fan. I started out with Mistborn, but I've read most of his by now- Stormlight, Mistborn Series 2, Reckoners, Skyward... And I met him once at a confe...

I had some of the same concerns as LOM regarding electing judges; I agree that a term lasting as long as the existence of the Judge makes sense. I think we should also specify that if a judge CTEs but returns within a certain period of time (let's say two weeks) they can keep their seat, just in cas...

I can try and do the TRC one, but it's a hard thing to summarise for those who don't know the backstory, and I'm moving in three days. How many paragraphs do you want it to be? As Zamastan said, it doesn't need to be long. Three short paragraphs would be perfectly sufficient. The post at the top of...

Would you be willing to write an article? We're having to scramble to finish quickly, and so every bit of help with article-writing is appreciated.

What kind of article would you want written?

The post at the top of this thread has a list of articles that are needed.

I've received LOM's article on the news threads, UNE's interview, and UNE's article on the Delegate elections, while I'm almost done with the wiki page article. Everything else still needs to be written, although we can drop one or two of the articles if we have to. Excited to see the final product...
