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.

Hyperion Economic Trade Organization (HETO)

Hyperion Economic Trade Organization

Hello fellow Lords, Patricians and Plebeians alike. I, Miricano, am here today to propose the first regional Economic Bloc, the HETO.

The goal of HETO is simple, to insure the free trade and economic integrity of all its member nations. Currently in our region, there is a very large disparity between the very wealthy nations and the ones that do not have great economic output. HETO is here to balance the trade of all nations and reduce tariffs of its member nations.

It is the right of every nation in the world to allow the best quality of life for its people. HETO is here to assist those nation with struggling economies who have not had the opportunity to help their people. But HETO is not only for the smaller nations but as well as the well-off ones. HETO will provide strong business relationships with struggling nations and opportunities for nations to provide services to other nations in order to stimulate economic growth and national employment.

Some may believe that HETO will infringe on national sovereignty, but that could be farther from the truth. HETO is here to stimulate growth, not get in the way of national policies and infringe on the rights of nations. Nor is HETO here to insure that we are interdependent of each other. Rather HETO is here to insure that each nation is able to provide the resources to it's citizens and spur the economic growth of all its member nations.

This post is merely to spark a lively debate and to flush out any main concerns that people will have with the proposal. Once all concerns have been met with and decided upon, with the approval of the Lord of Culture, an official document will be drafted and voted upon for member states to join.

Thank you for your time.

Is HETO purely a economic organization, or will it also delve into military and law enforcement support, like NATO for example - who protect each other militarily.

A) HETO is purely an economic situation much like NAFTA. It's overlying purpose is to open up trade to all and lower tariffs.

B) However OOC, let's be honest. Since when has Miricano been outright and forthcoming. This is a way for Miricano to raise revenues by aquiring the resources of smaller nations and implanting large Miricano corporations in other nations. This is also a way to form an economic stranglehold on other nations that do not comply with HETO.
Miricano is one of the largest suppliers of foodstuffs to the world and the largest on the forum. Combined with the amount of goods an services that come through the nation and leave to go to others, this makes Miricano the largest trading partner in the region. So when combined with other larger nations who have large economies, this becomes the perfect way to ensure Miricanian and other nation's profits go up.

However, those that oppose HETO will be subject to swift trade embargoes and asset freezes. Of course that would have to come to a vote by the members of HETO but you get the picture. Join HETO and embrace Miricano culture. Scorn HETO and your people will feel its embrace.

Good thing all my assets are off somewhere else...

And Corcetia will never assimilate!

I understand why you guys OOC are skeptical. I would he if I heard about it. But I don't know why your IC RP would reflect that. I mean it looks and sounds like a harmless plan to bring nations together. What's wrong with that?

The Romulans will never comply. Free trade eliminates the manufacturing sector because corporations would move out of the country if there weren't large tariffs that make such relocations far less lucrative for them. And manufacturing is always the Romulan priority, of course. Why outsource your auto industry when two decades later you are enemies with the auto-exporting country? B-)

You presume that our national leaders are idiots who have never done dealings with Miricano in the past.
