Question about the NPTO

OH GOD, HE'S GOT AN IDEA

jk

I think it's gotten to be a bit more like the UN at this point, but really it's somewhere in between.
 
Both the NPTO and the DU are like the United Nations (each has it's differences however). Helmebaine and Faibuaizu are like NATO since they are more similar to military alliances. What did you have planned?
 
NPTO is a small UN, with its Assembly being the General Assembly and the Peace Council being the Security Council. We may have the other organs added, but that's all on the Assembly.
 
Organs? NPTO are cannibalism-supporters confirmed.

BTW I'm starting a new Organization, except it's more UN-like, no Empires (like the UN) and Human-Leaders only (like the UN), so far that is like 10% of TNP.
 
Ummm... the British Empire was a founding member of the UN...
 
Just out of curiosity, what exactly would this new organization do that one of the existing one's cannot do (other than be more exclusive)?

Also a little off topic but you say 'no Empires (like the UN)' yet the United Nations has quite a few member nations that are still active kingdoms / empires (not full fledged world spanning but still along the lines of one).
 
Sytarenne:
Yeah, but the UN has a strictly no-empire policy.

If that's the case, explain the following countries membership in the UN: the United Kingdom, the Kingdom of the Netherlands, the Kingdom of Denmark, the Kingdom of Sweden, the Kingdom of Norway and the State of Japan (considered the last true empire in the world today)? Each and every single one of those countries is a kingdom / empire.

Edit: Also what Nierr said, the British Empire was a founding member of the United Nations.
 
It doesn't. The UN discourages colonisation and encourages nations with them to decolonise, it does not nor has it ever passed legislation banning empires from joining.

Tell me one Empire that still calls itself 'Empire' today and is part of the UN

Empire > an extensive group of states or countries ruled over by a single monarch, an oligarchy, or a sovereign state.

Give me one example of that

The UK and France both have a large number of overseas dependencies, such as the Falklands and New Caledonia. If you stretch the definition, Canada and Australia, amongst others, acknowledge the Queen of England as their own Queen.

The UN was active in the decolonization process, but did not require this of their memberstates - the UK, France, and the Central European powers all retained significant colonial possessions for the earlier decades of the UN.
 
By that logic, the U.N. bans transgender heads of state, because there is no one nation today with a transgender leader.

Sytarenne, here's a tip: don't act like you know something what you don't.

The Ethiopian Empire was one of the founders of the U.N. and it ended not because of the U.N., but because of a communist coup. The Imperial State of Iran was also a founder, and ended because of a popular Islamic revolution. Again, neither ceased their imperial status because of the U.N. The only reason Japan isn't officially called an Empire today is because of the Japanese Empire's defeat in WWII.

Many European powers such as the Dutch, British, and French owned extensive colonial empires until they fell away through wars of decolonization. Not because of the U.N. banned them.
 
But. They. Aren't. Empires!

Do you ever refer to the UK as 'British Empire' or France as 'the French Empire' or 'Dutch Empire'
They all have something called a Government and also have something called no, they aren't absolute Monarchies who have complete 100% control of all their territories! They might have some aspects of an empire, but they aren't referred. to one.
 
Just to clarify my stance... When I refer to the United Kingdom I'm using the modern empire definition, which as was pointed out by others means that the country in question still has overseas possessions.

True, there are no true empires left that adhere to the colonial era definition anymore (at least not that I can think of off the top of my head), but there are plenty of modern empires in the world today.

Lastly, I don't know how the conversation has gone off topic when it's located in The Lounge (where OOC conversations are to take place) and every one of us have tried to answer a question that was posed.

Edit: A few examples of modern day empires... Francophone Africa which is a remnant of the French Empire, the French Caribbean Territories and the British Commonwealth (the evolution of the British Empire after its fall from power).
 
Anyways... to keep this discussion on topic, I again pose the following question to you (as it never got answered the first time around):

"What would your organization do differently that cannot already be accomplished by the Democratic Union, the North Pacific Treaty Organization or the Helmebaine and Faibuaizu Alliances?"
 
:blink: Britain doesn't have an empire anymore?!

OH MY LAWDY NO! NOBODY HERE HAS EVEN REALISED!


or so you'd think from their attitude.... <_<
