Hi! Toin here.

Hi there!

Toin has been my brain child since 2016. Originally, it was a Fiji-esque nation with a large, poor lower class who were mostly farmers and an apartheid government ruled by a Swedish (but not the Swedish) King. The national animal was also the rat terrier, the dog I still own. The currency was the Terrier Coin. But in mid 2018, I changed Toin to be more realistic in its current status. It's largely based on the Cascadia bioregion in the northwest United States and southwest/west Canada, but certain elements come from Brazil/Portugal and a lot of the North American Arctic.

I'm also autistic. It's an archaic term, but I consider myself to specifically be high functioning. A unique characteristic of my autism is something called a special interest, which has been accurately described as an intense hobby. Government, politics, and law are kind of mothballed into one, but my strongest is Antarctica. If you have any further questions about my disability, feel free to ask them, I'm not shy on the Internet. Just be warned that I don't like jokes about autism I view to be in bad taste. If you want to get to know me, I'm very friendly but it usually takes me a while to open up. I'm like a walnut, if you will. Eventually, without knowing it, you'll smash the walnut.

I feel like that's a good enough introduction for now. I look forward to making this place Toin's home - I had been jumping around for several years and am looking to settle down somewhere.

Hello Toin. 😃 I'd like to join Salvia in welcoming you here. Thanks for joining Eurth.

You seem to already have experimented with the kind of country you'd like to play. One question that already springs to mind: what could someone buy if they had 100 Terrier coins?

Welcome to Eurth!

It's good to see such an in-depth introduction!

We do have our own Antartic, along with a treaty organisation for it:

@OrioniThat era of Toin wasn't well thought out, so who knows? It might be just enough for a cheeseburger, or it could buy you a Lamborghini. All that really mattered for it's existence was the fact that it existed, it didn't have any story element. 🙂

I'm a bit late for welcoming party... but no matter, welcome to Eurth! Glad to see how well-thought out your nation is upon joining! I couldn't say exactly the same for myself, lol
