Welcome to the Global Information Survey!

Founded in 1953, the Giorgios Passolides Centre for Statistical Research is the foremost statistical institution in Selene, tasked with gathering data from around the world to assist class and research efforts for the faculty and students of the University of Byzantium. In addition, due to the 1987 Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Office of Statistical Analysis, it provides expert assistance to the Government of Selene in its data collection and processing efforts.

Since 1987, the Passolides Centre conducts the Global Information Survey, a collection of diverse data from countries around the world to be used by the University of Byzantium and the Government of Selene, as agreed upon by Chancellor Tsaldaris and Prince Marcus VII in the MoU signed that same year. Originally the Survey was filled by doctoral students at the Passolides Centre. Currently a form is sent to the foreign ministry of each participating country, and doctoral students verify the information provided and complete what data remains missing.

Since its first inception, the Survey has been a reliable source of information for students and governments alike, informing academic research and policy decisions throughout the world. Known for its accuracy and responsible use of information, the Passolides Centre continues this proud tradition with the 2017 Global Information Survey, collecting national data from the past year for its compilation, evaluation and publication.

Map of Artemia
Information and Claims
1. What is this?

You are in the thread dedicated to the Map of Artemia. While our region is called Selene, we call the planet Artemia, and Selene instead is a country in the planet. It can get slightly confusing at first, but you'll get the hang of it. We do all our official roleplaying (also known as canon) based on this map, so if you want to participate in our world, you need to claim one of the available plots on the map.

2. How do I claim a plot?

Please follow the following process to claim a plot on the map:
  1. Create a forum account through the Registration page.
  2. Copy the application form below into a Reply to this thread.
  3. Fill out the form as truthfully as possible and post it.
Code:
[b]MAP APPLICATION FORM[/b]

[b]1. Nation Name:[/b] [nation]XXXX[/nation]
[b]2. Foreign Involvements and Aliases:[/b] XXXX

[b]3. Country Name:[/b] XXXX
[b]4. Plot Number:[/b] XXXX
[b]5. Capital City:[/b] XXXX
[b]6. Additional Cities:[/b] XXXX

[b]7. Country Equivalent:[/b] XXXX

3. How do I fill out the application form?

Glad you asked! Here are some useful tips on how to fill out the application form:
  • Where you see XXXX, replace it with the information that is being asked.

  • In Nation Name, indicate the name of your nation in Selene.
  • In Foreign Involvements and Aliases, indicate in which other regions you are involved (if any) and any other names by which you are known there.

  • In Country Name, indicate the name of your country in the map, which may be different to your nation in Selene.
  • In Additional Cities, you can indicate up to five cities, aside from your capital, that will appear on the map.
  • Make sure to indicate both the name and approximate location of each city. Please don't ask me to pick a location for your cities. If you do, I just won't include them on the map.

  • In Country Equivalent, you have to indicate the real country whose culture and/or ethnicity most similar to your roleplayed country. If you have a country called Testlandia, and it's most similar to France, you should indicate that. Please keep in mind that choosing the United States will not make your country a superpower.
4. Do I need to follow any rules?

We do have a few rules that you need to follow. Our main rule is the golden rule: don't be a dick. Aside from that, we have some rules that are specific to the map applications process:
  • We have a Climate Classifications Map. Use it to check if the plot you want has the correct climate for the kind of country you have in mind.  Refer to this article (or this simpler version) for information on how to read the map.
  • We also have an Culture Map that details where each major ethnic and linguistic group is located. Make sure that your country and its city names fit with its ethno-linguistic region.
  • You may only claim one plot. * Attempting to claim additional plots by creating additional accounts or using proxys/VPNs will be severely penalised with the removal of your plot and potential ban from the region. **
  • You will be removed from the map if you cease to have a nation in Selene, or if you fail to participate in roleplay at least twice each month. You can request a leave of absence by posting in this thread, but it cannot be for a period longer than one month.

    * You will see that a few members do control a second country on the map. While claiming a second plot is possible, that is only done for experienced roleplayers who have already proven to be active and responsible with their initial claims.
    ** Since we cannot tell for sure who's the one behind the computer, excuses such as "this other account belongs to my sibling/friend" cannot be trusted, and will be treated as if the person were trying to circumvent the limit.
5. Could I be removed from the map?

We conduct activity checks at the start of every month. You will be removed from the map if any of the following happens:
  • You cease to have a nation in Selene.
  • You have not participated in roleplay at least twice in the past month.
  • You have engaged in repeated and unrepentant rules violations.
You may be exempt from the second requirement if you request a leave of absence in this same thread. A leave may not be longer than one month, and cannot be requested multiple consecutive times. You will also be removed from the map  if the Privy Council determines that you are not using your leave of absence rights in good faith or if you repeatedly post the bare minimum only right before the activity check. You have the right to contest a removal from the map. A removal due to inactivity does not involve an expulsion from the region, nor does it forbid you from reapplying.

If you are removed for a second time, you will not be allowed to reapply for the map. This does not prevent you from participating in other aspects of the region.

6. What should I do while my application is processed?

Unless you are a banned user or are found to already have a plot with another account,  your application will be accepted and processed over the weekend. That means you will have to start participating! Here are some tips on what you could start doing:
  • Fill out the Global Information Survey:
    Every roleplayer is required to fill out the Global Information Survey (GIS) within one week of applying for the map. Its purpose is to help you figure out the basics of your country, while having the assistance of someone experienced. As soon as you post your submission you will be assigned a Companion, an experienced roleplayer who will be tasked with checking your submission and helping you adjust it. It's alright if you're not an expert in determining most of these statistics, since the Companion is assigned precisely so you can get help with someone more experienced.

    In addition, your Companion is your main contact point within the region, and will always be happy to help you get a feel of how to get involved, who to approach for ideas, and overall how to get settled in the region. If you ever have questions about what you can do or how you can do it, for example about how to start roleplaying, or if you have comments about how Selene is doing, your Companion is the first person with whom you can talk.

    Please keep in mind that failure to fill out the Survey will lead to the rejection of your map application.

  • Post in Flash News:
    A good way to introduce your country to the world is to post in Flash News, a thread that allows you to post one-line news items about your country. If you are brave enough, head over to The City Criers and start your own newspaper thread, where you can post news articles from your country!

  • Contact your Neighbours:
    Unless you pick a particularly isolated plot, you are bound to have neighbours. You can reach out to them on the Regional Chat to talk about signing treaties, forming alliances, working out your joint history or just roleplaying some interesting event that might be happening. You could be allies, you could be rivals, you could be something in between. There is always something to do, if you are creative enough.
7. Anything else?

There is much to do besides roleplaying. You could join the Royal Marines and help defend the regions of NationStates from raids and other attacks. You could join the Regional Government and help govern the region, maybe even run for office in our next scheduled election! You could be an active member in our Regional Message Board, keeping the region visibly active for all our newer members. There are countless possibilities. Or, if you have questions, you could always head over to the Chat and ask anyone there. We are always happy to help in any way we can, or at least point you in the direction of someone who can help.

Welcome to Selene!

If you are present in the map or are a member of the Ekklesia, you need to announce expected leaves of absence, so you will not be removed for inactivity. Please keep in mind that leaves must be reasonable in length, and cannot last for weeks without end.

Map of Artemia
Information and Claims
Welcome to Artemia!

Our world is called Artemia, after the once great Artemian Empire that expanded vast lands and originated much of our history. What history you ask? That is where you come in! As a roleplayer, your job is to develop the history of your nation, and in turn help create our world history. In order to do that, however, you first need to have a place on our world map:

Blank Map | Blank Plots Map

You will have noticed that each plot in the map is numbered. As a user, you are allowed to claim one main plot and one secondary plot. You can use them to roleplay two different nations, one nation colonising the other or any other variation, provided that you follow these rules:
  • Your secondary claim cannot be more than half the area of your primary claim.
  • You cannot merge your two claims as a single nation, but colonial claims are allowed.
  • You are not compelled to claim a secondary plot.
There are also some rules to which all nations are subjected, be they primary or secondary claims:
  • Each claim must be attached to a corresponding nation residing in Selene.
  • Your claim will be removed from the map if its underlying nation ceases to exist or if it stops residing in Selene, or if you have failed to participate in nation-based roleplay at least twice a month.
  • If you will be absent for an extended period of time and may not meet the activity requirement, you should reply to this thread with that information, so you can be temporarily excused from that requirement.
  • You may not try to claim more plots than is allowed, nor may you use different accounts to circumvent the claims limit. Please avoid having your relatives and friends play the game on the same device and network as you. We have no way of knowing if a user is truly your friend or relative, or if you're just trying to circumvent the claims limit.
With these rules in mind, it is time for you to claim a plot!

Please copy the following form, past it as a reply to this thread, and fill out all the required information:

Code:
[b]MAP APPLICATION FORM[/b]

[b]Nation in Selene:[/b] [nation]Selene Nation Here[/nation]
[b]Nation Name:[/b] Nation Name Here
[b]Plot Number:[/b] Number Here
[b]Type of Claim:[/b] Primary / Secondary
[b]Capital City:[/b] Name / Location
[b]Customisation:[/b] Other Cities / Locations

Keep in mind the following tips regarding the above form:
  • Write the name of your nation, without its pretitle (Republic of, Kingdom of), between the [nation] brackets.
  • Your nation on the map may have a different name than that of your nation in Selene.
  • I try to accommodate customisation requests, but please keep in mind that I will only add cities, not forts, bases, forests or any other detail, and the number of cities to be added will depend on the size of your plot.
  • You may still have as many cities as you wish, they just will not be on the actual map, due to space considerations.
  • Type of Claim is where you indicate if your claim is Primary or Secondary. If you are filing for both, your Secondary claim will need a separate form.
In all cases, I retain the right to refuse to add a certain claim, be it because the nation name violates regional rules, because the cities contain offensive language, because the customisation requests are unreasonable, or because of similar reasons. In those cases, I will provide a clear explanation of why I have refused to add a claim or part of it, and allow the claimant to respond.

I will usually update the map each Saturday or Sunday, but will pre-clear all claims as soon as possible. If your claim is pre-cleared, you should be good to start roleplaying, since your nation is guaranteed to be added to the map on the next update.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask here. We are all friendly and will try our best to answer all your questions.

Welcome!

I am Nostrasia and you may have just seen me in the RMB. I am supposed to be 1920 themed nation in the modern world which is quite a hard task. I have to remove computers from the homes of my citizens and keep them strictly at government facilities so that they are not influenced by the Modern Mayhem and the culturebreakdown. 

I existed a year ago, saw a Polandball picture of my nation and decided to bring it back from the graveyard and here I am.

Hope that I can involve myself wholeheartedly in this region as a roleplayer and in its regional politics as a conservative.

What I also hope for is that I get to know you all and have a good time.

Speaking of 'time', I thank you dearly for reading my introduction and hope that you may leave a comment too. It would let me feel validated. 

Good night, everybody.]]>

Particular things that interest me as a member inclue: building culture, games and entertainment, whimsical role plays, and other silly stuff.   Angel]]>
