Make spells, not war.

On that note, been looking at the new policy redesign. Got mixed feelings, to be completely honest. The policies now feel almost like a tourist trap instead of a nation-defining feature. Glad Chan Island's got the piracy policy though.

Yes, it is pretty ironic, isn't it? I do like being able to see what caused my stats to change, though. And it only took them about 24 years to add that feature!

Still more efficient than my local government :L

Darn, I updated Tsatsakkh's map because of a new neighbour (howdy!) and had to move the legend around and resize it to make space. Only afterwards I realised that I resoze the scale indication with it, so now it doesn't make sense anymore. People will now woefully get lost.

Hello everyone, I was just appointed as ambassador to Forest from The Leftist Assembly (TLA)! I'm a relatively new member (been there slightly over a month), so this is my first government position, but I'm excited at this opportunity and going to do my best! Looking forward to meeting all of you!

The lights. The lights. We do so enjoy the lights this time of year. Throngs of Destroates line the cliff edges to enjoy the lights, protected on our plateau as the world descends into the annual nuclear chaos. We bid all nations a happy N-Day and wish the Canopy success. Please note that all DOBIE's are sealed until the festivities are concluded and sanity returns to the world.

This is a call out to any intrepid journalists out there who can report on the current N-Day activities. The Forest Leaf is looking for someone to document Forest's contributions this year. Any takers?

I'm no journalist, (rather odd considering my credentials running this state) but I will note quite a few of our folks are pretty high up in the shield stockpiling. I myself was in the top 3 for a bit before decidin to just start stockpiling production for a moment.
