I'm truly disgusted.
A future delegate ought to know better.

Recruitment? Pfft. I don't like half the people that are here already, do we really need more of 'em? :P

I repeat: do NOT listen to the panther.
Oh, who are you talking about?
Wow, I didn't know you liked ANY of us :P

Lol do not worry I have returned and I updated the map!

The Battleground Continent
The brand new continent that exists on this map is where the battleground is located. Nations have the option to fight over this territory. In order for you to be involved in this you must have the game Sid Miers Civilization V and it VI and also be in the Civilization Discord found here. The way your territory will be determined when it comes to this new continent is when a nation joins the continent they will be allowed up to 3 provinces.
(Note: This is entirely separate from the mainland, meaning you can have your land already chosen on the map and also opt into the battleground to receive an additional 3 territories)
The War and how it works
This is all role-playing here so the way everything is determined is based on the game Sid Miers Civilization. There will be Seasons set up for each game Civilization V and Civilization VI each season will have a total of 4 episodes and begin at the beginning of each month and ending of each month. The battleground continent will be saved for the archives and reset each season.
In order to gain land, you must settle more cities. 2 Cities equals 1 province, so if you have 4 Cities you would have 5 provinces because you start out with 3 provinces in the beginning.
Claiming and or taking land through war or trade
Taking land from another nation is only possible on the battleground continent. In order to take land from another nation you must declare war and take one of there cities in Sid Miers Civilization. Upon taking the city you will receive one of there territories. Another option you have is the diplomatic solution you can try and figure out a trade deal with the nation and trade your territory that way as well.
FAQ
What happens if my nation gets wiped out in the game and I lose all my territories? Unfortunately, that’s a game over scenario, you lost... The war did not go in your favor... You would lose all your territory on the battleground continent and whatever nation wiped out your nation on Sid Miers will receive all of your territories on the battleground continent.
Is this a requirement to be on the map?
Absolutely not! This is just for fun and role-play and all of the Wars will be designated for the battleground continent.
Can someone declare war on me and force me into the battleground? No this is all voluntary and in order to even be able to declare war on each other’s nations each nation must first opt into the Sid Miers Civilization Season.

Maowi how could you do this? Smh my head
Don’t forget my claim. Java and the Lesser Sunda Islands.
A Down and Dusky Blonde, Holly United, Johanneslanden, and Panther
You’re moderately tolerable, I suppose.
A Down and Dusky Blonde, Norgiestoileckylockj, and Panther
I sent Holly a TG with your claims
Thanks Holly. I've only now actually read the dispatch about the map. I had no idea there was an idea to make that new Atlantis/Lemuria continent a "battleground" to be fought over via games of Civilization. Cool idea. But probably not many folks actually have those Civ games...I wonder if there's another way to make that workable?
A Down and Dusky Blonde, Holly United, Norgiestoileckylockj, and Johanneslanden
I figured we could use a platform of games like Sid Miers, Stellaris, Anno 1800, heck even Halo Wars lol I think there is even a free online game we could all use I guess it just depends on who participates and what games they have and are willing to play. I will look into a war game online that way everyone has access to it
A Down and Dusky Blonde, Norgiestoileckylockj, Johanneslanden, and Maowi
...I was thinking more like the card game "War" :P

For once, we are in agreement. Those prefabricated plastic costumes display a real lack of creativity, and are just downright ugly. Every time I see a small child walking around with a molded set of superhero abs, I just want to cry...
I blame parents for being lazy and just throwing money at a problem. All of my Halloween costumes growing up were homemade and terrible, but to look back on them, quite charming. Whether it was a teenage mutant ninja turtle made from cardboard and a saucer sled as a shell, or a Robin Hood costume made out of finding whatever green clothing we had and making a felt hat, or going as a TV by cutting arm holes in a big cardboard box and painting it.

The Earth is doomed anyway. The Moon is moving away from us and the Sun grows larger and hotter. Go on greenies, protest about that. If the Earth was a person then it would be a constipated and overweight 55 year old with chronic gout, bad breath and piles. Fire up those rocket engines, let us explore space, that is our only serious hope as a species.
A Down and Dusky Blonde, Norgiestoileckylockj, and Panther
We’re all gonna die anyway. Let’s mess up the Earth and completely screw our children.
Well...if people like Extinction Rebellion and other greenies were really serious, they would start talking about sensitive topics. One such topic is global population control. Having children in the first place is the single most environmentally damaging thing an individual can do, unless you’re one of the Koch brothers or something. Someone who is around 45 today has seen human population nearly double during their lifetime.
“Warning Bell for Developed Countries: Declining Birth Rates
In developed countries today many women receive educations and earn salaries that are on a par with those of men. The fact that women are no longer socially or economically dependent on men has radically altered young people’s lifestyles. A woman can now choose to remain single, marrying only when a man adds value to her life or when she desires to have children within such a framework.
This is creating big changes throughout the developed world. The replacement rate–the reproduction rate that keeps a population stable–for developed countries is 2.1, yet nearly half the world’s population has birth rates lower than that. The U.S. has a total fertility rate (TFR) of 2.0–nearly the replacement rate–with Hispanic immigrants leading in birth rates. The U.S. is aging but not as fast as many other countries. A 2010 census showed that 31.4 million Americans live alone–27% of all households (equal to the percentage of childless couples). Living alone allows people to pursue individual freedom, exert personal control and go through self-realization, but these people have fewer children.
Western European countries have low fertility rates, below the replacement rate of 2.1. Germany: 1.4 (its total population is 81.9 million, of which 8.2% are foreigners). Holland: 1.8 (16.5 million, of which 4.4% are foreigners). Belgium: 1.8 (10.8 million, of which 9.8% are foreigners). Spain: 1.4 (46.1 million, of which 12.4% are foreigners). Italy: 1.4 (60.2 million, of which 7.1% are foreigners), the Pope’s views notwithstanding. Sweden, which provides deep support for parents, has a high TFR of 1.9 (9.4 million, of which 6.4% are foreigners), but that’s still below the replacement rate. Ireland and the U.K. also have high TFRs, at 2.1 and 1.9, respectively, but these rates are derived from non-European immigrant parents.
During the 21st century the U.S. could become the slowly aging leader of a rapidly aging world.”

This was all from this article I found on Forbes

I also put a link to an image showing the population growth rates map down below comparing the world and as you can see the highest population growth is in undeveloped countries in Africa not Europe, Asia or North America

So the key to the population explosion or at least a solution to help slow and maybe even one day stop it, is modernization. Africa will get there one day but they are not quite there yet.

Yes, in most western countries people are having smaller families. However, the UN still projects human population to reach over 11 billion by the of the century, and that’s the median projection number. That number is projected to keep rising into the early 22nd century.
Modernisation means increased use of technology, more roads, clothes, cars, plane rides, stuff in general. Most of which is damaging to the environment. And then modernisation of Africa or wherever has to serve an even higher base population than the previous generation. Your kid’s, kids, kids are going to have kids.
I don’t personally favour population control. However I find it slightly odd that environmentalists seem to shy away from human population growth being a factor in climate change.

Have you seen the movie “What Happened to Monday” on Netflix? As long as it isn’t like that lmao 🤣
I prefer ZPG, ignore the 70’s fashion. 😉
Lol oh yes 😂 Death by suffocation for having children and plastic robotic dolls to replace children I could get behind this lmao 😂
Harsh but fair. 😵
