I just discovered that if you have a female name for your country leader, your nation can go from Father known best state to mother known best state

I wondered why I was a Mother knows best state. It must be the "matriarchy" I put in front of "Gypsy Lands."

I didn't know that. I knew there was the mother knows best category, but not where it came from.

What happened to The Swiss Confederacy?

I have no freaking idea. Even going over all their "happenings" in the last few hours, it's not even clear what happened. At any rate, I suppose we're fortunate to be done with them.

Seriously ? I don't know if that's true 😕

It's true that being a Queendom or a Matriarchy has that effect. If a feminine Leader name has that effect, it's news to me. (Might be true, though. There's lots of news I never get.)

If the game can automatically determine whether a name is male or female, Max Barry is a genius. (or the person who developed it idk)

Obviously, this cannot be done for every name. Indeed, some names, like "Pat", are both male and female. But it is certainly possibly to have a list of common English feminine names which can be consulted to make a valiant attempt. The game is already known to have lists like this, to enable it to get common cases right. It already knows the plurals of common currencies, and whether common anaimals live in the land, sea or air. But that won't help if my currency is the krone, as there is more than one real-world currency with that name with different plurals, or if the animal is the tuatara, which is obscure enough that it probably is not on any list of common animals.

TL;DR, it certainly would be possible for NationStates to do fairly well at recognizing common feminine names (I don't know if it does or not), but getting every single one correct would indeed be impossible.

Tyrantio Lands

Hello from the Tyrantio Lands!

This is an important message from the Regional government of Altay:

We have just installed a new embassy policy. It's loosely based on the old one but with many important changes.

1. An embassy may be opened based on an arbitrary decision made either by the RGA collectively or by a dedicated Ministery or by Leader Eastern Tatarstan.

2. The ammount of embassies shall not exceed 75, not including the embassies with Altay's Colonies and Protected regions.

3.
a) An embassy is perceived primarily as a means of easy communication between two regions regardless of interregional relations. Therefore, prohibition of embassy posting may be a great limiting factor in the process of establishing an embassy

b) By opening an embassy in Altay, a region automatically subscribes to Altay's propaganda broadcasted during Altaic state holidays and other important occasions and milestones. The embassy region's competent officers are free to adjust the details of their region's subscription, or fully end it, via Altay's RMB or via a TG to Leader Eastern Tatarstan.

4.
a) Any region seeking to establish an embassy in Altay is entitled to a R/D non-aggression pact between it and Altay. To establish the pact, an agreement has to be made between the embassy region and Altay either via Altay's RMB or via a TG to Leader Eastern Tatarstan.

b) The agreement lasts even after the embassy is abolished and has to be revoked by one of the sides either via Altay's RMB or via a TG to Leader Eastern Tatarstan.

c) Those non-agression pacts obtained prior to the 25th of July 2021, which have not been rendered invalid by that date, remain unaffected except for clause 4, letter b of this paragraph.

5.
a) An embassy may be closed only by the competent officers of the embassy region or by Leader Eastern Tatarstan.

b) Altay may close its embassies only to maintain the embassy cap or during states of emergency declared by the RGA or by Leader Eastern Tatarstan.

c) When maintaining the embassy cap, embassies with regions which do not have a non-agression pact with Altay and/or prohibit embassy posting and/or have had little to none diplomatic/casual engagement with Altay are to be abolished primarily.

d) Such an embassy may be spared if deemed important enough by either the RGA or by Leader Eastern Tatarstan.

Written by Leader Eastern Tatarstan on 26th February 2019. Passed by 66,67% on 1st March 2019.
Last ammended by Leader Eastern Tatarstan on 25th July 2021

Such complicated rules from Altay. We, on the other hand, welcome all embassies. Almost.

Quite so. We only reject those that reject us as a culture, worthy of respect and honor. You befriend a Gypsy, you have a friend for life.
I speak from RL experience.
And BTW, anything you may hear of or read about the Gitano way of life is probably based on unsubstantiated evidence.

come look at our poll

Sadly, Silesia-slovakia has CTE'd.

But on the other hand, we welcome East jalang and Wast jalang.

East jalang Please refrain from using racial pronouns on our RMB. We want this to be a comfortable place for everyone.
