| What is New Hyperion? New Hyperion (NH) is a region of NationStates. It is an empire built on the principles of Hyperionism, our guiding philosophy. Great! How do I sign up? Hold on there, buddy, you haven't even registered yet! You'll have to scroll up (or just click here) and take care of that first. After that, take a look at those four forums at the top of the list. The Low Orbit Welcome Wagon is where you can apply for Plebeianship and introduce yourself. You can undergo Patricianship if you're interested in leadership. For everything else, go to Imperial Service. What if I'm a diplomat? Go to the Immigration Desk instead, and we'll get you masked. What's the government situation look like? Our region has three main levels of command: the Imperial Council, the Inquisition, and the Hyperion Senate. The Imperial Council (IC) consists of the Autarch, Chancellor, Lord Inquisitor, High Lords, and military command. It assembles when sensitive or secret decisions need to be made. Its members otherwise act separately as department heads and administrators. The Inquisition is the law enforcement of the region. Inquisitors ensure that all members are complying with any requirements currently set in place, and, along with the Lord of Development, also controls admission into the Patrician caste. The Judiciary, our courts system, also exists as part of the Inquisition. The Hyperion Senate consists of all our Patricians, and is the primary body of law and policy. The Senate operates somewhere between a democracy and a mob, and doesn't necessarily need hard votes to get things done. While the IC is technically superior to the Senate, it is more common for the Councillors to participate as Senators. As such, the Hyperion Senate tends to be the most important part of the entire government. Is that it? Of course not, that would be dry and boring. Granted, the Hyperion Senate is about as boring as a discussion on abortion, but you probably don't want to deal with its squabbles and silliness 24/7. That's why we have the Imperial Service and the military. The Imperial Service consists of the various departments, such as Foreign Affairs and Recruitment. All departments are volunteer-only, though enlistment and training in the Hyperian Guard is highly recommended for all members. In general, however, you will be encouraged to join under-staffed departments. Oh yeah, didn't your recruitment telegram mention an RP? Why yes it did! While we allow other RPs, of course, our main RP is the one that sets the standard of our theme and culture. It's kind of complex and involved, but once you get the ball rolling it's about as smooth sailing as any other RP. What if I need help? Pop us a question. Our patience is legendary. You may also check the Great Library of Trantor for answers to some of the more common questions. |

Okay, so there's a new RP. My first question is... how the fuck does this actually work? |

Yeah, in the real world, I'm not sure the people under Ramos would allow Maximus and gang to escape, as they'd probably value their own skins more than Ramos or Roen's, so I'm quite curious what will happen with Maximus anyway. |

Yeah, they value their own skins more than Roen's. So wouldn't that make them less likely to try and save him, or do anything that might cause harm to the madman's son? |

I think Ramos would have been assassinated a long time ago. Madmen make people jumpy. If that were to happen now, we'd have no leverage over anyone in Miricano anymore. |

He's probably too paranoid for assassination, but I agree that it would have at least been tried. I'm not so sure that the loss of leverage would necessarily be a bad thing. It's Ramos that wants me and you dead, not all of Miricano. Come to think of it, though, I think my populace might be the one past the point of peace... |

The Miricanian government is like Hydra; cut off one head, two more shall take its place. Killing Ramos will do nothing except create an opening for others to rise to power. What you need to do is wreck the entire beast all at once. If that means full-scale invasion, so be it. He can conscript anyone he wants to increase his fighting force, but his people are trained to be backstabbing businessmen. They won't last out on the battlefield against people trained to be warriors. His current force is the only one worth anything, and it's busy conquering Colbentielle. Now would be as good a time as any to hit them. |

Interesting theories. Personally I agree with Aragonn's the most. Miricano is pretty spread thin at the moment. With a navy on both sides of the coastline and an impending invasion to the south, the Miricanian Federal Forces don't have it too easy. Also, I am the largest "active" nation in the world, with 5 billion people and homeland defense is the very thin. Plus we have espionage wars in the streets of Port Alexandria, one of the largest cities in the world, a kidnapped child of the leader of Miricano, an active bombardment on the coastal cities of Capitonis and a artillery bombardment on the city itself, three nations that despise it, a freaking Cat. 5 hurricane with a broken levee that is flooding major streets in Port Alexandria, and not to forget, a cookie recipe to rival the best food in the world. All this on the shoulders of one man could make him a bit stressed. Yet, the people of Miricano are content in their current state. We have the best HDI in the world and some of the best happiness. Health is up, and has the best economy. Personally, I'm excited to see how this will work out in the end. |

And you said I'm terrible with tactics. ![]() (Something I just thought about) If we attack now, we may save Colbentielle from getting conquered by Miricano. My government has the ability to declare full-scale war without any red tape, but I don't know about anyone else. Edited by Aragonn, Sep 24 2015, 04:51 PM.

@Miri: You do not have the best economy, though. That would be Frostmark. Also, we've discussed this before, but if you want to take advantage of Cilby's weakened state, you seriously need to bring your story in line with your current political freedom score. @Aragonn: Yeah, Marinia does want to attack now, but only fools rush in. The first step in any plan to conquer Miricano will have to be securing Colbentielle, because if we lose Colbentielle, invasion is no longer an option. Doomsday devices from space would become our only option at that point, and we'd have to completely destroy Miricano. The collateral would be staggering. Edited by Laurentus, Sep 24 2015, 04:54 PM.

No, Miri has a higher GDP. Not the best arms manufacturing, but he does have a better overall economy. |

He only has the biggest GDP because of his size. GDP Per Capita is the score we agreed to use long ago, and with that, Frosty destroys Miri, and Miri destroys me. |
