Hm, if I remember correctly he was almost a non-interventionist before, something that threatens your country's status. Nice to see he moved away from that position to attract more GOP votes. But his stance on abortion... I mean you can't portray yourself as libertarian and then again tell people not to abort. It's better than forcing young girls, often incapable of raising a child, to give birth and take care of the baby. Either the child's gonna end up worse, perhaps follow its parents path, or they'll hand it over to the gov and make it society's problem. Just let them abort..

Be thankful for the mainlanders, I mean come one, your economy is mostly based on tourism, a small finance sector and some construction, that's it. Without washington you'd fall back into... well, look at Cuba now, and island without american tourists and without american gov.
I've never been to Hawaii nor am I an American (yet...), but from my outside view Hawaiians only benefited from the union. BTW, you got one of yours in the White House currently, and his predecessor was - speaking about environment - a conservationist who also took care of Hawaii.
Besides a stable government, military protection from the world's last and only superpower and a stable political system that allows every Hawaiian citizen to achieve whatever he wants, your people live in freedom and can do whatever they want. And no, the rich tourists - many of whom are very influential - won't let Hawaii secede, get that idea out of your head.

I see some pretty high numbers in here [like some of the tests I did, up to 145+... doubt it]
There's a saying that you don't need intelligence to be powerful. Being in here since some time I'd rate this saying true

Well Sheepy, the countries which you mention (arabs, iran) are only peaceful because they're authoritarian regimes or, in case of iran, close to it (still got the revolutionairy guard) and they can crack down on the slighest uproar within hours. That to their "peacefulness".
Besides that, the west has to see that radical islam is not something you can destroy by killing the people who support it. Maybe you've seen the film Vendetta... "ideas are bulletproof". And radical islam will sustain, not only will it not be weakened by killing those people but it will become stronger and stronger as those people are seen as martyrs and are heroized. It's like Hydra.
Also we gotta pressure the arabs to stop funding terrorists. I mean for years now those countries have been sending money and weapons directly or indirectly to those people, and now as they're surprised those terrorists pose a threat for their own countries they cry for the west's protection. There'll never be peace when countries like saudi arabia try to spread their sharia-monarchy-ideology to the surrounding countries.
Some say the arabs have been living in tents and bashing each other's head about a hundred years ago, and they'll be in the same situation in another hundred years. I don't hope it'll come to that, but they're imo trying pretty hard to achieve that. Either limit the tensions in the region and work together or stop wasting trillions of dollars on this region... some say a ruling power, e.g. iran, would help stabilize the region (though iran is pretty isolationist).

What if you don't write an app but just a downscaled mobile site? I mean an ap is, imo, something for interactive games (with moving objects etc), for news, audiovisual content or tools that use smartphone sensors like GPS or tilt sensor. A mobile site, streamlined, pack some menus in spoliers, perhaps an auto-collapsing sidebar and very simple graphics could do well too.

Like in the real world... every nation spies. But will become troubling once you're caught.

Such a nice image. Good job (Ragnar?). Also nice treaty.

I got a similar problem: whenever I wanna play, I direclty go to the /login/ site. Then I log in and click on the nation link (the blue one on the page "you successfully logged in"). Then it again redirects me to the login page, then I have to log in a second time...

Yellow is the coolest color in Orbis. This makes your question irrelevant.

Pro:
--> they're dead, they don't need it anymore
--> could avoid the death of other people who, without those donations, would have to wait for months / years
Con:
--> there are property rights for everything, car, land, house, money, ..., and once you die they're not given to other people either. Organs should also be con
--> "legal theft"
--> donations are always voluntary
--> organs might end up in bodies of people the donor person doesn't even like
--> people could start to kill in order to get organs... guess who will be killed. not the millionaire up on the hill, that's for sure
--> might halt/abort all current efforts to make people survive without new organs. medicine will fail to look for alternatives and just rely on dead people
--> this might also be the end for stem cell research, which was basically invented to be independent of potential donors and use stem cells to "repair" the body... would mean billions of $ wasted

Despite being one of the old members I don't get it :/
Missing the logic... please explain to me

I personally would warmly welcome some extra-orbis life, some aliens. Though some behavior seems not from this world, we still lack concrete evidence for other life forms...

Best of luck.

Oh, is the guy we destroyed desperately trying to stay relevant? That's nice. On a bonus, your attack email brought him back to activity, so thanks for reviving our member. Keep up gods work, Lambda.
me misunderstanding?

I like the idea of cutting off the supply to rogue nations but instead of making a large complicated alliance bank, raise the price for the items that he imports like pushing metals to $2k+, Gas to $2k+, Food can even double because since he is mainly a military nation surviving off trades, the higher the price, the more it will harm.
But if it has to be done, we can make a super alliance trading type thing.
Not a large complicated alliance bank. Just 1 large shared market and we then buy and sell in this one instead of the open market.
