Velvets realm wrote:My stringent policies about politics is pretty much shaped by the historical experiences of Weimar Germany, where a certain extremist fringe group led by a Bavarian Corporal was nearly fizzled out of existance by its economic recovery and prosperity before their fortunes got turned around by the 1930s Great Depression when it managed to barely secure a coalition government by 43.9 votes and secured the Chancellorship by scapegoating a certain group of people for the Germany's economic failures and defeat in WW1 and enacted permanent emergency powers due to a staged incident against their strongest political opponent until the Bavarian Corporal decides to drop the facade and becomes well-known dictator.

Right, that's entirely understandable from that point of view, my system is just based on what I feel like modern society should be like to an extent...
...and it's also based on the situation involving Antarctica itself, it's a highly diverse and extremely spread out nation, with tentative control in some aspects, which makes it fragile to any kind of serious backlash and revolts against certain policies.
But it's also a place that values diversity and inclusion into everything and anything if possible.
The fragility is why Cetiri treads lightly along the lines of banning things, she has certain things she won't abide, but she also knows that the country itself doesn't share her views all the time. If she notices that she can't do something without risking the stability and survival of the country, she just won't do it.

Ancapstands wrote: Parades and parties Start all around ozis and greater new ancapstands. videos Capture the bombings and make the morale go up even more. Hindenburg gives fiery speeches almost every day. The National guard is fully mobilized. Right now no other city state has declared war on grater new ancapstands, but that will change soon as a huge alliance is forming aginst ancapstands. Negotiations with the north are complete, and they join greater new ancapstands as states.

The new states are now sending people to the government of ancapstands. Each state sends to 2 people to vote and make laws for ancapstands.

Ancap forces close in on Ancap city and the city states start to fight more fiercely. Bombing campaigns become even more frequent. POW camps are almost at its max. City’s are falling but at a steeper casualty rate. The ancap forces are only 32 miles from Ancap city. Most of the city states industrial heartland has fallen, the Industry will help tremendously. Civilians are granted citizenship into greater new ancapstands. Captured Officers have a choice of joining the black army or being sent to a POW camp.

Ghost division

Melious

Fast as the wind, the invasion has begun
Shaking the ground with the force of thousand guns
First in the line of fire, first into hostile land
Tanks leading the way, leading the way

Charging the lines with the force of a furious storm
Fast as the lighting phantoms swarm
200 miles at nightfall, taken within a day
Thus earning the name, earning the fame

[Chorus:]
They are the panzer elite, born to compete, never retreat (ghost division)
Living or dead, always ahead, fed by your dread

Always ahead, as the blitzkrieg rages on
Breaking morale with the sound of blazing guns
First in the line of fire, first into hostile land
Tanks leading the way, leading the way

Leaving a trail of destruction through a foreign land
(Waging war with conviction)
Massive assault live to serve the Nazi plan
(Wehrmacht’s pride, ghost division)
Communications broken, phantoms too far away
Thus earning the name, earning the fame

[Chorus]

Pushing the frontline forth with a tremendous force
(Far ahead, breaks resistance)
Breaching the way for panzer corps
(Shows no fear, self-subsistent)
First in the line of fire, first into hostile land
Tanks leading the way, claiming the fame

[Chorus]

Panzer elite, born to compete, never retreat (ghost division)
Living our dead, always ahead, fed by your dread

Would it be fairly accurate to describe my nation's political system then as 'guided atheist democracy with militaristic characteristics', after all Velvet and her allies aren't really shy about handling cut throat politics, diminishing corporate influence, and extremist shady tactics in a brutal manner with the military's explicit backing if need be for the SFSR's sanity. Oh, and If we ever manage to lift our ban on religion, our attitude towards it will be 'don't ask, don't tell'.

Got it. Laters. Got some level grinding in Arknights to do.

That does seem to fit your nation's theme with how you're doing your factbooks, it does give off the impression that they'll do whatever they need to do to handle things that threaten their country or the way that they want to have it be. It certainly appears that you're playing that role very well.
I also do like the tensions that reside within the nation, the economic collapse at the hands of mismanaged emergencies, the bailing out of corporations that didn't need it, among other things that I'm sure you'll add in to flesh out the nation more.

On a completely unrelated note...
I'm sitting here imagining how comical it must have been to get that HDDT-013 delivered to your country, and how the conversation would have gone down about using such a large and heavy vehicle as a battering ram that could knock over sections of buildings.

I toyed with the idea of having the vehicle as a gift by corporate benefactors to Drim, before deciding it would way overkill if they are just leave it to a small crew and was going to storm and fortify the state complex to martyr themselves anyways. Not mentioning they would have been already noticed by then and wiped out immediately through even ruthless means if they have done that.

I was originally planning to let Drim and his thugs be doomed by their own fortifications by having the state simply respond accordingly by simply having units wait outside as fighter planes start firebombing the complex, toasting everyone inside and have Drim unfortunate enough to escape and be lit up like the 4th of July through gunfire and hung upside down by military forces but decided that was too overboard for NS.

Right... so instead of giving the vehicle to them, you decided to pit it against them, as it made more thematic and logical sense.
And it worked rather well for that purpose.

I can see why you would think it's too overboard for NS... that's a pretty violent way to respond to Drim's actions... and a pretty violent way to have him and his thugs killed. It'd probably get you into a bit of trouble if you decided to detail that kind of stuff.
