The New Inquisition Launches Stock Exchange - Speculation is rife!

Traders busily go about their business, hoping to make their fortune


The New Inquisition has launched a brand new cultural project, The New Inquisition Stock Exchange (TNISE). Many prominent members of the region, including the Kaiser have joined the game which is based on a combination of NS nations and contributions to the region.

TNISE began trading on Monday 28th April, and has so far seen active trading from players. Prices fluctuate based on the trades made by players and the performance of players within TNI. Players are then assessed at the end of each month both on the performance of their company (which is based on the combination of their NS nation and their TNI performances) and their trading (how much they have increased the value of their portfolio through buying and selling various shares in other companies).

TNISE is open to foreign players on application and those interested in taking part should register on the TNI forums to take part.

Citizens from TNI and Unknown were waltzing long into night during the festival

Following a series of negotiations between the Culture Secretary of TNI and members of Unknown, the TNI-Unknown Cultural Festival has begun. which has seen citizens from Unknown visit TNI's forums to take part in a roleplay state occasion with food, dancing and costumes.

This has been noted as a signal of a return to activity and strength for TNI. What is special about this event is that instead of the usual fun and games characteristic of TNI, this joint festival has opted for an approach closer to that of Unknown, taking the form of a roleplayed ball with a central theme of twisted fairytales. There has been a warm reception towards the event, and frequent posting, including appearances by many leading members of both regions. It is believed that relations between the regions would see further development through this event.
