I'm going to keep this sweet and simple for now: Kurdipam is not allowed into the CASA Alliance for the following reasons:

1. No nation may join the CASA while they are a dictatorship with low civil rights. I understand that this may be due to stats, but if that is the case, then it should be a matter of waiting for the right issues to come up that either remove the autocracy or boost civil rights. It isn't good enough to just not have slavery, or allow public protests. If one nation can join in spite of the rules, then what is the point of having rules in place at all?

2. Kurdipam has a history of claiming colonial rule over other countries. Although there is no official restrictions regarding this for CASA membership, colonialization is NOT a popular subject among Jubilosans, and is almost as bad as slavery.

3. There probably should be a rule in place for this: It would be terribly unwise to let in a country that not only has access to use WMDs, but is casually-willing to threaten use of them, or worse deploy them.

-----

A side note: The Jubiloso-Udralstan War wouldn't be the hot mess it is right now had Kurdipam simply not gotten involved. In fact it may be best to dismiss both previous and future Kurdipam posts regarding the little spat between Udralstan and Jubiloso. I don't like saying that, but as Homul stated:

Secret message?

Then don't join their pact, in reward I will give you lots of cookies.

Of course the only way to effectively hunt subs is to build better subs, or maritime drones (coff coff like NG), but we are just in an experimental phase.
To build back our relationship, we ask to participate on the project, partaking a simple 10% (thus not giving us a lot of decisional power).
We can prove that our partnership could ve valuable on 3 main points: we have the 12th biggest IT sector (which still is considerable);
we have some technical knowledge; we are trustworthy.
Of course, after the approval of SorcererKingdom, and even if rejected, our relations would remain the same.

Sure. We have no problem with you joining the project. I believe that it will further strengthen our relationships.

Wait, Jubiloso is a socialist nation. How are we #9 in this region for the highest disposable incomes?

Kurdipam wrote:Kurdipam is sending 35,000,000 military personnel and aiming their nuke of udralstans land to let these people go

2020 world population - 7.8 billion
2020 Military in world - 27 million

Kurdipam population - 2.5 billion
kurdipam claim for military - 35 million

(x) Doubt

Following NationStates's population sizes as a reference for official population sizes in roleplays is a decision generally ill-advised.

I'm just saying it's NS Stats

Most countries in the real world have a weak military or don't have compulsory services.
But fine I will remove this

Actually according to NS Economy wê have 150M in total but ok I will lower it.

IF you have good NS stats doesn't mean you have nukes or does that mean you can use nukes realistically when there are countries stronger than you

The Department of Road Works and Safety announces a large portion of budget to be used on improving road safety on mountainous roads
Recently, chief of the Department of Road Works and Safety, Taifa Doyle, announced that 30% of the department's budget will be allocated to improving road safety in mountainous roads. This has come after reports of numerous minor incidents on these mountain roads have surfaced including rock slides, broken bridges, improper railing, sharp and risky road turns, and overall dirty and unclean roads. Taifa Doyle said that "These reports have justified my allocating of resources as these rural mountain roads are heavily used by commuters when traveling to the northeastern provinces of Homul. We hope to give a better experience to drivers on the road and reduce fears of accidents happening."

Yes there are like only 11 countries stronger in military and Udralstan isn't one of them.

The only things I will not accept is becoming a Kurdipamian colony in the event i lose a war which from past knowledge I know is your intent. I will also not accept being nuked, causing all of my RP I’ve built up to literally go up in flames in seconds.

When did I say I want you to become my colony the whole reason i did that do that you would let those Jubilosan supporters get away with it wê never wanted to invade you lmao
Anyways let's end this fight I'm not gonna use Nukes anymore nor I'm gonna use that huge amount of soldiers

NOW for the most important thing

I’m sorry it had to come down to this, but I had no choice. The challenge place will still be updated (It’s the most I can do at the moment), and I won’t be on NS as much as I’d like to.

We would love to Brodcast them finally btw can you make me an admin on the challenge.place thingy? I will send you my token.

**Snip**

When NS stats say my army is big: AWAKE
When NS stats say my citizens health is terrible and my food is low quality making my army basically worthless: ASLEEP

Its probably best to try to negotiate a static lore that approximates something realistic than to use NS stats.

Well RP wise our people are healthy and fit.

But fine I will probably lower our military to like 2M or something.
Also our food quality and healthiness is still not low NS Wise.
Top 14% and Top 30% is better than most nations.
Anyways it's better wê close this discussion I already said I won't be using nukes and that I'm lowering my military count

Gibraltir wrote:The broadcasts are gonna be detailed for Kurdipam matches thats for sure now. Hope you get better soon.

Real funny lmao.

No but fr for round 2 I will probably focus on the 7-7 and the 9-0 matches since they are trending and were really funy

The exact same as in real life: To deter foreign countries from invading.

Yes because I accidentally added that policy in an issue we don't have autocracy it was because of an accident.

I'm pretty sure IRL there is gonna be a nuclear war anytime soon spending money to make nukes just to scare people off is a dumb reason
