Aura Hyperia was originally created from the merging of the regions Bloemfontein and A Second Try, and then arose from The United States of Europe. Its former residents have rebranded themselves as the Hyperion Order, and currently reside within New Hyperion.

Founded: 29th October 2014

The regional roleplay has now started! Talk to Lord Aragonn about joining!
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?

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

Not recently, but I'm willing to dock back my stats to what they were just over a month ago. I have screenshots of that. Or maybe I could average my new stats with those old ones, as a compromise and more realistic alternative?

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.

Quote:
 
along with Colberius declaring that the Colbentiellian spies were about to torture Roen

He never announced that, and never would, mostly because no Colbentiellian agent would be willing to hurt Roen. It was a bluff, one which Colberius was hoping Ramos wouldn't call.

Quote:
 
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.

Compulsory military service, with no opt-out for healthy citizens (which is everyone). They are the soldiers and policemen. Besides, no Colbentiellian would blow up a hospital.

Quote:
 
This doesn't even need to be the entire populace, just a very large, very skilled extremist group.

My ideological radicality is well below average, and youth rebelliousness is negative. My stats don't support this, if it's stats we want to follow.

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

This is true. Also, NS apparently decided that all that newly abandoned military hardware needed a home... My Weaponization stat has gone from being negative to being four times the world average. In the past couple days.

I hate to say this, but... I was actually kind of planning on a coup being attempted. So I guess it can just happen sooner than intended, and be mostly successful. I'll start working on a post immediately, assuming that we can all agree on this. Please just decide what should be done with my stats.

Tau, since the information I was gathering for you for your post is now irrelevant, just have your military spot my ships heading towards you and then holding just outside your waters. Three battle groups from the northeast, southeast, and northwest. An aircraft carrier with each group, assorted battleships, destroyers, etc. All stopped just shy of entering your waters.

Wait, wait, wait. I was under the impression that Colberius did the Roen bluff on international television?

That being the case, a skilled politician could easily use that to win public support and turn people into savages, precisely because of their compassion. Let's not forget that all of your people aren't going to be compassionate either.

And another thing you must remember is that probably a good portion of your people will be Miricanian immigrants, given how we worked out the maps. So they won't be happy with the state of affairs either. The same can be said for Colbentine immigrants in Miricano too.

No, that was sent directly to Ramos.

What being the case?

Colbentielle doesn't like immigration too much, so the number of foreign immigrants in Colbentielle will be relatively insignificant. (Also, Colbentine?)

Laurentus, you have a point about my anarchy. Then again, my citizens did blow up a levee in Port Alexandria. I think I have sufficently put in several events that show Anarchy in Mircano.

Sorry Colby, no hard feelings but I think I'm just gonna sweep though the South pretty quickly and take all your land. Thanks for being a good sport, it's nothing personal. Hopefully Tau can just take on that navy of yours.

That strikes me as somewhat out of character.

@ Miri: Er. No. Anarchy would mean a lot more chaos than that. Essentially, Ramos wouldn't have any real authority to do anything. I would also expect a lot more opposition to his plans/tactics/actions than he has been getting. Probably more on the level of the New Hatfieldian and Kuncachean rebels opposing Laurentus. Especially since he is even crazier than Laurentus.

@Colby: My mistake then. I'll have to edit my post now. *Shudders.*

Okay, so what we could do is have Ramos publicly broadcast that video of Roen and the subsequent call from Colberius, thereby inciting dissent in your numbers.

And the hospitals, schools etc. don't necessarily have to be blown up, because with the traitorous politicians having stolen all the money, they just simply wouldn't have the necessary funds to get things done anymore.

Also, yes, I agree with Frosty's assessment that 'Colbentiellian' is just too much of a mouthful.

Colby can continue to live on in the RP with just the naval forces around Science, but they would need to seek refuge somewhere to stay safe from Ramos since they no longer have the government resources of Colbentielle. @Colby Do your fleets have at least one admiral? I'm thinking the admirals could take charge and make decisions for the fleets.

You could just pronounce it like Miri pronounces "Miricanian", ignore the 'i' and say it like "Colbentiellan". According to the Romantics, not every letter has to be pronounced. The French took this philosophy to the extreme...

I truly hate French, apart from some cool French names. Italian has always been my favourite Romance Language.
