| 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? |

In light of recent events in Colbentielle, how do I incorporate this in the destruction, ahem, the organization of Colbentielle and the whole war structure. |

I think it would make sense to rule this event as non-PvC-canon. |

But were his stats recorded from just before the economic and political crash? |

As much as I sympathise with Colby, I do think we understood from the start that our story would be heavily dependant on our NS stats. Therefore, I think it would be appropriate to incorporate this new event, since we'll never be able to prove what his stats were before either. But, if you want to exploit this, Miri, then Jose Ramos can't be in control completely either, as you are now in anarchy. |

This is what happens when you call yourself Colbentiellian. I wonder if this could be worked into being related to the war. |

I think that perhaps it can. Perhaps a few nervous politicians could have emptied the government coffers and fled to Miricano, plummeting the economy and stock market, making them traitors, and this could have happened because the police, military and politicians were too focused on the current war. This idea needs development, but perhaps there could have been wide-scale strikes, riots, terrorist attacks, bombings, or simply put just plain hell after that incident, along with Colberius declaring that the Colbentiellian spies were about to torture Roen, and the populace are more generally unhappy about having to pay for the Colbentiellian intervention of Ramos's missiles that were sent after Laurentian craft. Fear would do that, especially if the entire country is about to be obliterated. In their panic, they could have killed all the soldiers and policemen themselves, and government is next on their list, forcing Colberius and everyone else to hole themselves up wherever they can. This doesn't even need to be the entire populace, just a very large, very skilled extremist group. |

Well, Colbentielle does have compulsory military service. That would explain the skilled extremists. |

And perhaps these rebels could wish to be annexed by Miricano, but that just stinks too much of the Crimea crisis.

Or perhaps these new rebels just want new management. |
