- What is your nation's name?

Corinthina

- Have you ever applied to Pardes before?

No

- Do you role play any other nations?

Not currently

- How big is your nation (or colony, if applicable) in terms of population? What sort of population density/overall landmass are you looking for?

My current RP population is 503,492,041 with the density being 97.1/km2 (251.5/sq mi).
My current RP area is 5,184,670 km2 (2,001,812 sq mi), which I know is rather large, but hopefully this isn't too much of a problem. I'm willing to adapt if need be.

- Please Describe your nation.

Corinthina (/ˈkɒrɪnθiːnə/), officially The Republic of Corinthina, is a country located hopefully in Pardes! The country includes the island of Corinthina and many smaller islands. Corinthina shares no land borders and is surrounded by the TBD sea. Its capital city of New Luxembourg is located on the south-east coast of the island of Corinthina. It consists of 25 states, 10 of which federated in 1763, forming the The Republic of Corinthina. Corinthina has maintained a stable liberal democratic political system that functions as a federal presidential constitutional republic. The federation comprises 25 states and several territories. The population of over 503 million is highly urbanised and heavily concentrated in the major coastal cities. The nation is more sparsely populated in the center of the island which is far more mountainous and rugged than the coastal regions.

For at least 40,000 years before the first Hippostanian settlement at the turn of the 17th century, Corinthina was inhabited by indigenous Corinthinians, who belonged to one or more of roughly 100 language groups. After discovery by Hippostanian explorers in 1554, Corinthina's eastern half was claimed by The Kingdom of Hippostania in 1597 and initially colonized in 1603. Disputes between The Kingdom of Hippostania and the Corinthinian colonies led to the Corinthinian Revolution. On July 5, 1763, delegates from the 10 colonies unanimously issued the Declaration of Independence, which established the Republic of Corinthina. The Corinthinian Revolutionary War, which ended with the recognition of independence of Corinthina from Hippostania, was the first successful war of independence against a Pardesian colonial empire. The current Constitution was adopted on May 4, 1774; 31 Amendments have since been added to the Constitution. The first ten amendments, collectively named the Bill of Rights, were ratified in 1779 and guarantee many fundamental civil rights and freedoms. The population grew steadily in subsequent centuries; the continent was explored and an additional 15 self-governing states were established.

Corinthina is a highly developed country and one of the wealthiest in the region. Corinthina ranks highly in many international comparisons of national performance, such as quality of life, health, education, economic freedom, and the protection of civil liberties and political rights.

- How long have you role played this nation? How long have you role played on NS? How long have you been role playing?

I've had my NationStates account since May 1st, 2011. I've never been big on RPing on nationstates however, but it's always something that has interested me. Now that I have a little more time on my hands this summer, I intend to RP much more. I used to be a member of the region of Rushmore which had strong sporting role play. Currently I'm a senator in the NS Forum Senate, a member of the Liberal Democratic Party and an ambassador to the Common Sense Party.

- Why are you interested in joining Pardes?

I recently reached out to Hippostania about them possibly being my RP former colonial oppressors. Naturally, I'd love to join Pardes so that I can build on this concept, hopefully being able to integrate more national histories within my own in my factbook, which is currently a big work in progress.

- Please list 3 RP examples

- Did anyone refer you to Pardes?

Hippostania

- Do you have a human population? If no, then please list what you have.

Yes

- What tech level do you play with? If it is not MT, how will it interact with MT nations?

MT

- Tell us a bit about yourself and how you'd contribute to the region. Short statements are fine, but a longer one is usually better. Just don't make it tl;dr.

My name is Daniel, I'm 20 years old and from London, England. I'm a university student, just finishing my second year of a Politics degree. I've been on NationStates since 2011. When I'm not trolling the interwebz I like sports, notably basketball and football (soccer), TV, my favourite shows right now are Dexter, Homeland House of Cards, How I Met Your Mother, stuff like that, and video games, Portal, Assassin's Creed, Uncharted, Battlefield, The Last of Us recently, you know, regular stuff.

After making more progress on my factbook, on which I would appreciate input from Pardes members, especially if they wish to feature in my nation's history in some way, I would be interested in RPing in the various ongoing RPs. Whilst I haven't had the chance to check them out yet, I'm sure that there will be one or two which I'd be more than happy to have a go at.

I'm not a bad graphics artist and can contribute to anything regional in that sense if need be.

Other than that, I'm sure that my wonderful personality and witty charm will be enough to sweeten the deal! :P

Seriously, it's hard to get to know you if you aren't around to get to know.

I belive this one counts, if we are supposed to get to know you.

And do you have any other roleplay examples?
