Welcome Programme - Step Four: Roleplay

Roleplay - Erene

Updates every Sunday or Saturday.

Erene is where we RP and it is the most active and highest quality RP experience on NationStates. Joining is incredibly simple:

  1. Decide what culture your country will be (e.g. German, Russian, Arab, Persian, Chinese, Indian, Korean, etc.)

  2. Decide what continent your culture fits in by looking at this map:


  3. Draw where you want your country to go on the map at the top of this dispatch and upload it to an image hosting website like Linkimgur.

  4. Copy this form:

    Country Name: 
Capital: 
Government type: (e.g. monarchy, presidential republic, etc.)
Population: (max. 100 million)
GDP: (keep this reasonable)
GDP per capita: (divide your GDP by your population)
Culture: 
Religion: 
Location: (img link)

    and then paste and fill it out here and click send.

  5. And wait for approval.

It's that simple to join.

Next Steps

Now that you've lodged your application, you should get towards creating your nation as a meaningful country instead of just a blob on the map that doesn't do anything.

We have a template available that creates a default wiki-style page for your country to make it easy to begin:

page=dispatch/id=2672545

Fill this in when you can so you and others know your country's history, government system, agenda, etc., making RP a lot easier for everyone.

To fill in some sections, you might find it useful to view our collection of maps which range from timezones and resources for trade to elevation maps and major rivers:

Useful Resources

You can find below a collection of useful resources that will help you navigate the world of Erene:

Rules

New Claims

  1. New claims are restricted to a maximum of 100 million population and less than 40,000 pixels.

  2. Cartographers can grant exemptions to claims at their discretion.

Expansions

  1. A nation can expand once every month.

  2. Expansion posts must RP the development of the land. These posts can either be in the form of RMB posts, dispatches or even lore tidbits posted to the Discord server or again, the RMB.

  3. One word of roleplay is equivalent to 5 pixels.

  4. If three map updates pass and no progress has been made on RPing the development of the expansion, it is voided and as such, it will be removed by Cartographers in the next update.

  5. Gargantuan nations, or nations that exceed 120,000px in size at the time of their expansion, may be outright prohibited from expanding further or may have lower maximums imposed on them by Cartographers at their own discretion.

  6. You are automatically prohibited from expanding further if your nation is close to or over 350,000px in size.

  7. Claims deemed as unreasonable or unrealistic may be outright rejected by Cartographers at their own discretion.

  8. You are allowed to roleplay expansions that are set in the past.

  9. The maximum limit for your first 10 expansions is 10,000px (2000 words).

  10. The maximum limit for your next 20 expansions is 5,000px (1000 words).

  11. The maximum limit for any expansions you do after your 30th one is 1,000px (500 words).

  12. New members of Corsair may be allowed to expand by 30,000px for their first 3 expansions. To claim this offer, you may ask the Cartographers about this offer. Receiving this benefit is dependent on whether Cartographer consensus agrees you can or can't.

  13. 25/25 Rule: One pixel adds a total of 25,000 more people to your population and $250,000 to your GDP at the most.

Land Transfers

  1. Nations can transfer land if both parties notify the Cartographers via Discord, the RMB, or telegrams.

  2. Land transfers must be RPed with a 200-word or more post from both parties before they are accepted.

  3. Cartographers may reject land transfers at their own discretion.

  4. Land transfers will be automatically rejected if the receiving party is near or over 350,000px in size at the time of the transfer.

Alt Accounts

  1. All accounts on Erene, including your main nation, must have at the bare minimum:

    1. a dedicated account OR

    2. an overview AND

    3. a military factsheet

  2. Alt accounts are classified in two distinct groups:

    1. Independent States: An alt account that is a fully independent country within the RP.

    2. Dependent States: An alt account that is intrinsically tied to your main nation, such as a breakaway or insurgency, a puppet state, an autonomous state or a colony.

  3. Adding a Dependent State alt to the map counts as an expansion.

  4. You may not use your alt to militarily support your main nation or one of your other alts if the alt is an Independent State. This does not apply to Dependent States.

  5. Your alts are allowed to be in the same alliances and trade unions as your main nation.

  6. Players are only allowed to have an Independent State alt after 3 months of no expansions from all of their accounts. Dependent State alts can only be founded if an expansion claim is sent alongside a proper nation claim for the alt.

  7. Players are allowed to have up to 3 accounts on the map, or one main and two alts.

Economy

  1. Your GDP is determined by you, provided that it is realistic and within reason. Helpful pointers you can use to determine a reasonable GDP include your size, location, the major resources available to you, your trade with other nations and the domestic situation inside your country. For example, it would be unreasonable to have a booming $2 trillion economy if your nation is in a constant state of civil war.

  2. To calculate your GDP per capita, divide your GDP (total wealth) by your population.

  3. A nation may only have access to a Linkmajor resource if their nation is located on a deposit for it or if they have access to it via trade. For example, you cannot trade or use oil if your nation isn't located on or near an oil deposit, or if you have no way of receiving oil from others.

Technological Limits

  1. To use or develop certain forms of technology, you must have access to certain major resources and permission from the cartographers or moderators to use them.

    1. Aircraft Carriers
      - Resources needed: Iron, Bauxite, Oil, Uranium

    2. Nuclear Technology (reactors, nuclear bombs, nuclear submarines)
      - Resources needed: Iron, Uranium

    3. Space Technology
      - Resources needed: Iron, Bauxite, Oil, Copper, Uranium

  2. You cannot use technology that does not exist in the real world. Experimental technology that exists IRL can only be used in experimental settings in the RP.

Alliances

  1. An alliance may be formed between 2 or more players following an RP that gives justification for the alliance's existence

  2. An alliance must have a reasonable justification for existing. This can be for reasons such as trade, further collaboration for future endeavours, trade, etc.

  3. Alliances must have a dedicated dispatch that has:

    1. a history of the alliance

    2. a list of the alliance's members

    3. a statement expressing the alliance's functions or goals

  4. RP moderators and Cartographers can void an alliance if it becomes clear that the alliance serves no purpose to the RP.

  5. A nation cannot be in more than two military alliances at once.

  6. Alliances must be approved by Cartographers or moderators before they can exist in the RP.

Usage of AI

  1. The use of generative AI to write roleplay posts is forbidden. Posts found or suspected of being written by an AI will be voided.

  2. The use of generative AI to write the contents of a dispatch is forbidden.

  3. You may use AI art in your roleplays, but you are not allowed to pass the work off as your own.

  4. You may use AI to to format dispatches, generate ideas for roleplays or proofread your work.

Fantasy

  1. You are allowed to have fantasy elements in your nation, such as magic or fantasy species. Fantasy is defined as anything that doesn't conform to the real world as we understand it.

  2. You cannot use fantasy elements to circumvent the rules.

  3. Fantasy elements must have their lore in a place where others can easily see it. You may do this through a dispatch or by making a thread in our Discord server's #worldbuilding forum.

Time

  1. LinkTime progresses at a rate of 1:6 on Erene - 1 year on Erene is 2 months in our time.

  2. Time is relatively flexible. You may set your roleplays in the past, but you are not allowed to roleplay anything beyond the present day on Erene.

  3. When roleplaying a war, time becomes inflexible and the roleplay will progress according to the current day on the map.

Punishment

  1. If you are found to be violating the rules of the map, you will be warned by RP Moderators or Cartographers to rectify the issue.

  2. If no attempt is made to rectify the issue, you will be suspended from the roleplay until the matter is resolved. When you are suspended, you are not allowed to roleplay or interact with others on the map.

Activity

  1. Any nation that is inactive for more than a month will be removed from the map. This also applies to alternate accounts.

  2. You may apply for a Leave-of-Absence if you are going to be away for an extended period of time.

The Rogue Nation of Dukedom of Murr

I am hoping to have embassies from other countries in our capital. Hopefully ones that do not care about democracy or human rights. Glory to House Sharem.

Emeradya

The Federal Republic of Tsalshlama

It has been discovered that my country's lithium deposits are far deeper and more plentiful than initially expected. As such, I am investing huge amounts of money and relocating *voluntary laborers by the thousands* to begin intensive extraction of this valuable resource. As one of the world's foremost technological hubs, I intend to make my battery industry the wonder of the Western world and one of the crown jewels of my heavy industry. This will greatly benefit my economy!

Zanos, Emeradya, and Dukedom of Murr

The Federal Republic of Tsalshlama

I am investing ten billion dollars (with 1:1 private matching) to develop oil resources in the Dukedom of Murr for Tsalshlamite corporations to extract. This is clearly mutually beneficial, as it greatly boosts their economy and gives us control over much of our oil supply. We are also pleased to see the high standards of human rights that the Dukedom of Murr upholds in its production operations. We hope to see a big beautiful continuation of these great human rights policies!
