| 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.

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. |

I mean past RPs don't affect current ones but Miricano hasn't done anything too shady canon to other nations. Except for the extreme corruption and seizing power and killing opponenta or whatever. But no one really cares about that Edited by Miricano, Apr 13 2016, 09:27 PM.

I'm not talking about past RPs. Our nations didn't just pop out of the blue. We haven't been in radio silence until just now. Our nations have grown and interacted with each other centuries before the start of this RP. |

Ok. I see and understand your point. But I'd imagine that nations would put aside their distrust for mutual trade agreements. You guys need to understand the treaty is not going to say "You signed and now your nation is mine, muahahahah" I mean honestly, it looks fine on paper and it sounds great in practicality. Sure I understand why you would be skeptical but it certainly would be worth to give it a try. |

A trade agreement is one thing; an economic bloc is another. |

What is it when multiple nations have a trade agreement. Don't they in essence form a Economic Bloc "A trade bloc is a type of intergovernmental agreement, often part of a regional intergovernmental organization, where regional barriers to trade, (tariffs and non-tariff barriers) are reduced or eliminated among the participating states." This is exactly what HETO is |

To me, "economic bloc" has more restrictive connotations. |

I'm not comprehending your point on trade vs economic bloc. If your main concern is the connotation it will be called a trade bloc but I mean they both serve the same purpose |
