| Welcome to the Global Right Alliance's forums! Firstly, you can only see a very limited amount of the forums at the moment. You will be able to see the full forums and properly participate in our region and its community when you register. Join our Community Now, on to the region itself. Don't let the name, specifically the "Right", fool you. We've got members from across the political spectrum, and our political parties have always reflected this. The Global Right Alliance (GRA), as primarily a gameplay region, has been everything from an anarchy to a monarchy to a homegrown rotatorship. The region has had such governments because of its culture, which adores political intrigue and thrives on confrontation. With the increase of the region's population, many veterans have returned. It is the beginning of a new Global Right Alliance and a new government system. I know the forums can be quite intimidating; there's people who have been here for nearly a decade and have over 10,000 posts. However, we welcome new members and encourage them to get involved. If you want help finding your way around, we have resources to help you to get on your way. Getting Started If you're already a member please log in to your account to access all of our features. |

![]() Delegate: Kubrikistan Population: 109 Security Status: Guarded Stardate: 29 June 2010 The news in Briefs (as opposed to Boxer Shorts) The Foreign Affairs Minister has been involved in a tough battle with RL recently, drawing comparisons with the fight between Gandalf and the Baalrog. And if you don’t get that, please read/watch Lord of the Rings, while wearing a dunce cap. Don’t force me to do it! Meanwhile, the Equilism World Cup has progressed more quickly than the FIFA™ World Cup, being up to the Final already. Astarial will do battle with All of Man Kind (yes, ~6 billion of us) for the coveted trophy, after knocking out Tarlisea’s Admirals in a semi final of cosmic proportions, and hosts The Monkye while being pelted with bananas, respectively. In other sporting areas, a triangular series of cricket between Phendarrah, Hitchcalm and The Monkye has got underway. Hoping to outdo their soccer cousins, The Monkye won both its games convincingly to make it to the final, where it will meet Hitchcalm, who beat Phendarrah in their match to also progress to the final. In the Government Two votes have been held since you last heard from us: One on joining The Third Wall Block, a group formed to protest the creation of Rule 4 in the World Assembly Security Council. This passed 11-3-3. The second was a vote amending the Multi Citizenship Act, designed to prevent drawn out circular discussions such as the ones with members of the AOSS earlier this year, and provide a quicker, simpler way for such citizenship issues to be resolved in the future. The amendment was well supported, with 18 votes, all Ayes. World Assembly Results Lets see…There have been votes recently on: International Criminal Court Repeal “The Clean Water Resolution” Dispute Resolution Anti-Cyberterrorism Act Multilateral Prosecution Act There has been a large number of No votes based on many Equilismers' disgust at Rule 4. Domestic Affairs Rumblings about creating another E-Beach have been stirring for several weeks now, and plans may soon come to fruition. That and DA is trying to rid Equilism of our rampant drunkenness and unemployment by opening up the E-Points system and restarting the job agency. Attempts at initiating prohibition have so far been less successful, as the E-Bar is never closed, and has an infinite supply of the thing everyone wants. Games and Fun The Men have made it over half way in Guys vs Gals. However, there’s still at least 225 posts to go to get to the finish line, and the end is a long way from sight. The Elimination games have also been recording hits recently. Us dictators love waging wars on our poor unprotected real life neighbours. Role Playing A Vampire RP has got underway, as has a Star Wars one. Expect Sith who are allergic to onions and Jedi wandering around with giant wooden stakes to bump in to you soon if you visit us. Immigration People have been recruiting recently, surprisingly. This may have been due to RL weakening its grip, or the incentive of cookies. Either way, nobody beat the Minister herself in this last week, so she gets to reward herself and save on shipping costs. Omnomnomnomnom. Perhaps this week’s batch will be celebratory EWC ones? Population has therefore stabilised at the lowered level of around 110 nations then. Which is of course better than being a two figure region. Foreign Affairs FA has been almost closed since our last update – RL activities including exams and travel, and lack of a back up has meant that the FA minister has shirked his duties. However, he’s making amends now, so be happy that you’re getting any news at all from us at the moment. At this point in time it may be good to grumble something about a summer slump, while throwing things at beach sand and at the sun. E-Army The E Army hasn’t done anything we’re not telling you about. Or have we? Riddle me that one, Mr I’m Too Smart For a Double Negative. The ongoing TRR mission has been winding up, while the E army has taken part in one defence and one liberation since we last updated you on the happy-haps. It sounds busy for the times, does it not? Quote of the Week:
-Hitchcalm, in one of his soberer moments in the E-Bar. Did I mean sober, I meant drunkosophical. |

Thanks for the update! Nice to hear that recruitment is on the increase over there. What are you bribing people with?

Nothing but the usual thing that always works. We are using real food, cookies to be exact. Astarial is baking cookies for those who have recruited a certain amount of nations and sending them to them.
