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.

News
Elections for First Minister are underway. The nomination period is over, and voting has started. The candidates are The Monkye and Millitarism. As usual, ministry activity has slowed down slightly in anticipation of the transition.

The Equilism Book Club hass decided that the first book read will be Max Barry's Jennifer Government. A list of interesting suggestions has formed, which means the book club should prove to be a successful diversion of people's attention away from their regional duties.

The Assembly used the new system for private voting on the most recent piece of legislation as a test to see how the system would work and what needs to be modified. The result is still pending.

Forum activity has started to pick up recently, probably due to the excitement of elections. A lot of that activity has been in election related areas of the forum.

NSEquilism on Twitter!
That's right friends, Equilism has expanded to social networking. A twitter account has just been opened for the region, mysteriously coinciding with the elections. You can find it and follow it at www.twitter.com/nsequilism.

It will be used as a platform for communication with citizens, and you, our friends from other regions, by the government, as a new way of interacting and encouraging activity. No longer will you have to wait for our weekly update to learn of what's happening, because there will be gossip to catch up on on twitter if you subscribe. Of course the weekly update will have more than 140 characters in it.

For Equilismers, the twitter feed can be viewed on the forum front page, which can save them having to open up a new page.

Of course, not all the details of the account have been finalized, so after we as a region meet to discuss the exact details, we'll let you know what the outcome is. Until then, tune in to twitter for more entertaining gossip!


The Candidates
The Monkye-
Joined Equilism in June of 2007.
Positions held:
Current Government
*First Minister
*Minister of Immigration
*Minister of Foreign Affairs
*University Dean
Positions from Previous Governments
*Chancellor of Inteligence

The first candidate, present University Dean The Monkye has taken community as his watchword. With a track record consisting of nearly every office in Equilism government, most recently First Minister, he clearly brings both humor and high ideals to the competition. His daring plans include taking Equilism to the Twitter age and forming a zombie-hunting cadre. It all depends on if Equilismers share his sense of humor.

Millitarism-
Joined Equilism in March of 2005.
Positions held:
Current Government
Minister of Foriegn Affairs
Positions from Previous Governments
*Chancellor of Domestic Affairs
*Praetor of Defence

The Monkye's opponent, Foreign Minister MILLITARISM, known in the region for his service in the E-Army and Military Affairs as well an active participant of regional events and discussions, is campaigning on the promise of consistency and emphasis on recruiting - clearly answering to a present need in Equilism. During open questions Millitarism revealed his ambition to grow up to become Genghis Khan, a direction certainly fresh and exciting for a First Minister to take. It remains to be seen whether the public will horde to his side.
