Everyone has become used to the dead rising on a regular basis. In fact, for you and your staff, the cycle has become quite predictable. That's why it was so much of a shock when a few of them woke up early and got the drop on you. Nobody was quite ready when the first ghouls stumbled into the foyer of your office. There were no barricades on the doors or windows, no stockpiled medicine ready to use, and certainly no hired security to help. The screams of your receptionist downstairs were the only warning you got, and once the panic set in, organised resistance was impossible. The next five minutes were some of the worst of your life, and ended with you locked in your p…

Just a silly game. Propose the first sentence of a short story or vignette, and let the next person finish it. Doesnât need to be in character or canon. Just as long as the writing is original. Something to get the creative juices flowing. Finish your reply with a prompt for the next person. And so on, and so forth. It was a dark and stormy night.

Because a while back I saw the Photo Booth thread but I don't have a desire to show my face, how about a thread for just photos, to compliment #gallery on the Discord. Don't spam with photos (I tell myself as much as all others), let's see what people take. Now I know not everyone is a photographer but try to focus on your better work versus a blurry snapshot you took with your phone. Yes, phone photos are OK.

Has anyone ever thought to ask how nuclear radiation clears out so fast every half-year? I read somewhere that fallout lingers for years after detonation; regular returners are well advised to be wary if they don't want to end up living a half-life. Despite that, this N-Day looked like a return to old alliances and older trends, as familiar face Horsemen of the Apocalypse (HotA) returned to the top of the scoreboard with a bone-rattling 1,074,435 score. Toughing it out alongside HotA were Kingly Heathens Against Neighborliness (KHAN), who survived a merciless onslaught by Anime Nations Against Liberals and eventual third-place finishers Jellyfish Elite Fighting Force…

It's just like any other day, except it isn't. Muted explosions, like divine thunder, rumble through buildings and rattle your very bones. Alarms, sirens, and cries for help echo in the distance. Lizard-worshiping cultists emerge from their homes and assorted encampments to welcome the end of the wurld. And as you gaze out upon your glorious nation, now blanketed in smoke and illuminated by napalm skies, you are filled with two things -- irradiated dust and a sense of inescapable doom. That's the nuclear apocalypse for you, and once again, it's arrived. Sorry, jumped the gun there. Almost arrived. You can find the exact time total armageddon commences using our nifty…

Has Eurth has any conflicts similar to ww1 and ww2? Not just in the same timeframe or anything, but a large scale war across at least 1 continent. Could've had 2 large allied groups like Entente and Central Powers or something, I don't know just has there been something similar?

Someone tripped over the cord that NationStates is plugged into and we went offline for nine days. That's not true. Nobody tripped over any cords. But we were offline for nine days. If we were a bank, we'd be right out of business. When the site went down, we lost a serious amount of data. The reason it took so long to come back online is we've been putting the pieces back together. Essentially the longer we stayed down, the more data we could recover. So we did that until there was no chance of losing anything more than we had to. Right now, we are mostly back to normal. However: Daily updates aren't running yet â so wurld Assembly Delegates cannot be replaced, and …

For ages, civilizations have come and gone, often leaving us only with the buried remains of their greatest creations, from the Violet Tinted Great Pyramids to the Great Comic Book Library of Bigtopia. The mystical legends surrounding these beacons of concentrated knowledge and power have persisted throughout history, creating objectives for ambitious explorers and talking points for desperate podcasters. However, only the most grand and impressive accomplishments have this level of staying power. As a result, over the course of many years, the wurld Census deployed a highly secretive team to survey the universe for the most interesting, ridiculous, and innovative creatio…

This post comes courtesy of Issues Editor Verdant Haven. One of the greatest things about running your own nation is that you get to be in charge of pretty much everything. What is the Leader's name? Have you designated an official national crustacean? Which banners do you have at the top of your nation page? Those banners in particular are important to many folks, as they represent "achievements" - proof that you have completed some particular challenge, whether it's protecting your environment, or merely drugging your population into such a blind stupor that they have offered to build you a solid gold shrine and worship you as the deity you are. While we've long had…

Have you ever just ... stared at a pixel? Back in ye olden days of 2002, to see a website, you'd stare at the equivalent of a window pane in a gray heavy plastic box, and if you looked closely (and disregarded any concerns for the well-being of your eyes), you could actually see that even a white pixel is just red, green, and blue, in varying intensity. Just incredible! But if a pixel looked wrong, I could say "yeah, that looks wrong", and that's it. Some people, however, have this innate intuition to say "add some blue to this pink to make it more bleen to fit in with the heroboxsectionfooterheaderwidget". If that's you, then do I ever have some news for you! NationSt…

A new year, a new nuclear apocalypse, a new bunch of funky acronyms to fill the faction leaderboards. Exciting, isn't it? Will KHAN return to secure another victory? Will we see Potato Alliance win its first N-Day? Or will a new contender rise to take it all on the 10th rerun of this iconic NS event? This year, there have been some changes to the rules of Nuclear Warfare on this site.

Ladies and Gentlemen, esteemed members of the Eurth worldbuilding and role-playing community, Today, we gather to celebrate an incredible milestone: the 20th anniversary of our beloved community, Eurth. Two decades ago, our journey began as a small group of imaginative minds. And today, we stand here as a vibrant, diverse, and ever-growing family of creators, thinkers, and storytellers. First and foremost, I want to extend my deepest gratitude to each and every one of you. To the founders and OG players, who laid the first stones of this magnificent edifice of imagination; to the moderators, cartographers, mentors, officers, and administrators, who have tireless…

I've always felt a tinge of compassion for your everyday zombie. Locked away in a repetitive, mindless cycle of existence, forced to toil away in servitude to his basic needs and desires. We're not so different, really, this hypothetical zombie and I. He and I could even become the bestest of friends someday! If he wasn't so fond of my brain, that is. I'm very fond of my brain too, you see. Maybe it would be best to act in my own interests, resorting to violence to protect my precious brain if I must. Or, perhaps I could use this brain I wish to keep safe to figure out how to cure the poor soul. Then, instead of a desire to pursue brains, he would become just like me, pu…

My apologies to @Ateeniaand @Seylosfor beginning tales here and there, but I've decided to continue on elsewhere. I've removed equipment from the various Eurth wiki pages, territory is free to previous plans of expansion from @Tagmatium Rulesor whatever else the region decides. It's been a good run, fun, slight headache now and then, but of my own making. I do wish all here the best. -MH

Yeah I'm writing here cause apparently I can't write in the Academy anymore, sorry. So I'm proposing a new country for myself as I want to change from Louvier. I have a lot of new ideas so I'm excited to start a new story. The Republic of Pecario (Estado de Pecario) is a developing country located in Alharu. Pecario is a unitary democratic republic, divided into nine departments. The poverty rate is around 39%. The main economic activities are agriculture, forestry and fishing, manufacturing products, such as textiles, clothing, refined metals, and refined petroleum. Pecario is thus very rich in metals such as tin, silver, or even lithium. The country h…
