Population: 282
Delegate: Carbanousa (83 endorsements)

Diplomatic Events

• This week we are preparing for an opening gala for the new Great Britain and Ireland embassy on Monday.
• Likewise, the gala event for the new Europa embassy is planned for Thursday.
• Canada declined to re-establish diplomatic relations with Trav Khar until the region's population increases.
• During this week we closed our embassies in both United Federation of Planets and in The West Pacific.
• Minister of Foreign Affairs, Judith Gap, released this comment,
  
  "Canada voted to close its embassy in The West Pacific this week after careful consideration of the ongoing constitutional convention. Ironically, not long after our notice of closing, the conference was declared a failure and the regional government no longer represents the will of the people of The West Pacific. While Canada respects the right of all regions to make choices of government based on the needs of the region and the will of its people, we hope that The West Pacific will eventually return to a democratically elected government. Until that time, we hope that dissatisfied nations in The West Pacific will find homes in democratic regions throughout NationStates."

Random Quotes from Discussion Boards

This might be clearer if you specify that it's Jack's son's fiancee and not Jack's own fiancee.

Other than that: :thumbsup:

Got it. Thanks.

Once again, great work!

so you can use it in the next report, sensative mad scientists will be posting the scores of the interregional soccer competition in the 10KI embassy.

I read them and couldn't figure out what the scores meant. Can I have a translator?

¿Usted malo como esto? ¡Mismo excelencia! ¡Mi coche es volátil!

WTF:

Yes, I am bad with deciphering the soccer scores.

Why are you claiming that it is excellent that your car is explosive? ¿Tiene a usted el Pinto?

Yay! an other highly intelligent quote by me.

i dont realy get the scoring either, ill ask Kericia or SMS to explain it. for us dumb Canadians :P

Example:
Kericia Seagulls - 1
Algal States Epiphytes - 3

That means Kericia scored one goal, and Algal States scored three. :rolleyes:

what don't you understand?

Ok. I'm just looking for the league standings, who's in first, second, etc.

Oh, ok. I thought you wanted to know how the matches are scored or something. The standings and everything are located here. If you wondering why the standings are in that format, well otherwise they look like this:
