| 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.

In second grade, in computer class where all the computers ran Windows 2000 and the white monitors were the size of a small filing cabinet and weight like one too, when all my work was done I use to play "Oregon Trail" or the original "SimCity" until the end of class. Good times... Now fast forward about thirteen years to today. I was perusing Facebook on my sleek laptop when I saw a new trending topic names "MS-DOS." Me being a curious person, I click on it and I am whisked away to a world of the Internet Archives. To make a long story short, I found a place where you can play the old games of your early childhood like Prince of Persia, Golden Axe, and Stunts, and then thousands of online free books, movies and music to boot. Here is the url: The Internet Archives Have fun

I'm pretty sure Golden Axe is quite a few years before your time. Hell, the first one came out on the SEGA Genesis like 4 years before I was born, I think. Oh, the nostalgia. How I suddenly miss those shitty old games like Streets of Rage, Street Fighter II and Mortal Kombat. Good times. |

Never knew Golden Axe was so old. I just wanted to mention some of the old game I thought people would recognize. |
