• First things first, join the World Assembly! It's like the United Nations but in NationStates. If you're confused on how to join the World Assembly, this guide should be able to help you out.

• Once you've joined the World Assembly, you can endorse any nation that is also in the World Assembly. It is extremely important for the security of the region that you make sure to endorse our World Assembly Delegate East Durthang.

• Now that you've endorsed our World Assembly Delegate, you can join our forums and then apply for citizenship in the New Pacific Order. At most, the process will take a few days, and then after that - you're officially a citizen of the New Pacific Order.

• The last thing that you need to do to get started is to join our Discord server. It allows you to communicate with all the members of the New Pacific Order, stretching across 3 main branches and other games as well. Since you're a citizen, you'll also get access to the special citizens-only channel too.

• If you fancy yourself as a roleplayer, it's important that you make sure to read the RMB Roleplay Guidebook as it allows you to get an understanding of the basics of how roleplay is conducted in the Pacific. If you don't like the type of roleplay presented, you might want to consider joining the other Pacifican Roleplay Groups.

It's common information, the foreign policy of Pathonia, but it can easily become a confusing morass.

After all, what does our vested interest in Hong Kong have to do with the Bubble Doctrine of simply keeping foreign entities as far from our territory as possible?

I now write in order to try and lift the shroud of confusion which surrounds these matters.

But first.
You must understand what it is, this thing called Pathonia.

…

If your body is a museum, an archive of everything that has ever happened to you, then a city is like a sort of history book; cataloguing various histories. A country, in this case, is a sort of library. It holds a great deal of books, and all of those books have a great deal of chapters within them.

There couldn't be anything more untrue than this.

This, or any other analogy trying to describe a country.

Because you could never do even a single person justice by trying to write a simplification of their spirit to 'make easy' the process of understanding complex figures.

It's often lost, the beautiful complexity of even a single human.

To sum up a hamlet would be legendary.

To sum up a city would be the work of the Gods.

A country?

Sheer impossibility. You cannot sum up a country without leaving behind its most essential parts on the doormat.

It's the people.

The foreign policy of this abstract entity, this decaying politic-vomiting corpse, is dedicated to the people.

If you do not know who the people are, then read no further.

If you cannot know who the people are, step outside and see.
You are a person.
You are, in fact, a part of this conglomerate, 'the people.'

Know this, truly know it; and you've completed the first step in comprehending the Kossulminus Doctrine.
