Can I ask the opinion of Pur and Soly on the invasion by our region of the Rejected Realms, and the removal of power by our region of KAndarinn?

Do you approve of the action? Would you countenance such actions in the future were you to be elected?

i do not disapprove of the action itself as i can see why they did it, however the way that it was brought about was just plain shameful. our once shining reputation is now tarnished without the consent of the general population of our fine region. I promise that if elected that i would never start any operations of the sort without first getting a majority approval from the community. also as a pacafist i generaly wouldn't dream of commiting such actions. i also plan to send a formal appology to the rejected realms for our current delegates actions.

I just thought of this

1) what will you do to Taijitu's army?

i will set Taijitu's army to peace keeping, their main concern would be to protect regions from raiders and to support our allies.

You mean defending?

Peace keeping sounds a bit dodgy to me.

I suppose PUR meant "upholding peace" in manner that does not violate the sovereignity of other regions.

That is defending.

Using words to waffle away from what it really is reeks of defenderish hipocrisy.

How can we believe any assuraces from you that you wont turn the Taiji army defender, after the way you just handled that question?

I would much rather we were strictly defenders, anyway.  It seems to reflect what the region was founded on a bit better. :2c:

If you were to turn Taijitu into a defender region, would you still maintain relationships with those of our allies that are pure raiders?

This region was not founded on anything like the principles of defending.


It would be an  enourmous turn of policy and regional culture to make this region pure defender.

The history of defenders in NS is one of hypocrisy, hate, and thinly cloaked imperialism.  The politics of defending in NS are based in self importance, deception, and double standards.

If you defend alone, you will need to infiltrate raider organizations to spy so you will know what to defend.  If you join with  other defenders, the above is what you will be working with. 

Are you willing to taint this fine region with that kind of dishonor?
