| 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. |

As we all begin to become closer as a group, it is safe to say that we are beginning to become like a family. A disjointed one, but a family nevertheless. With new members now joining our ranks, we are expanding our once fledgling region into one of prosperity and new ideas. As we grow, we might want to share our experiences with our online friends. Previously, regional activities like: The Heritage Journal and Local Delicacies have been a success, with all of us contributing in the pursuit of understanding new cultures and becoming closer as friends. This is why I've opened this section; for us to share our experiences with each other through pictures. They do say a picture is worth a 1000 words. Rules: 1. Like previously, if you don't feel comfortable posting it, don't. You don't have to contribute if you don't want to 2. If you want to provide a small anecdote with the photo as well, feel free to do so. 3. This is a place to have conversation and a few laughs, not a place to spam. So last time, I forgot to post in the Heritage Connections. So this is good way for me to show you guys who I am. Lord Miricano From: New York City, New York, United States Heritage Connections in: Puerto Rico, West Africa (1/2 Puerto Rican, 1/2 African-American) Visited: I've been all over the U.S. I've been to San Francisco, California; New Orleans (twice), Louisiana; Detroit, Michigan; Atlanta, Georgia; Alabama; Toronto, Ontario, Canada; Niagara Falls, New York/Ontario, United States/Canada. ![]() This is one of my favorite pictures. This was in November when I attended my first football game (Penn State University vs. University of Maryland). I took this photo with my good friend, Linda, at State College right after the game. Even though Penn State lost, my experience at my first football game was something I will never forget. Go State! Edited by Miricano, Feb 23 2015, 08:41 PM.

I was wondering when this thread would appear. And Miri, your image link no longer works. |

Thank you Colby. I will update it. To Frosty -- I hate you in Tree of Life. I found your role contrived and plain boring. Although your other movies were ok or mediocre at best, this clearly showed that you suck as an actor. Regards, Miricano To Laurentus -- Do you even know how to use a whip? |

Yes, I do actually know how to use a whip, surprisingly. No bullshit. And Frosty just delivered the perfect argument for being Brad Pitt. |

This right here.
And you've clearly never seen Fight Club or Se7en.
