Albion Turns Mercenary

Albion Turns Mercenary

Greetings friends and allies,

If you have not heard by now, Albion has decidedly taken a new course and approach to NationStates. That is, we have dropped the 'imperialist' tag, and adopted a loosely coined 'mercenary' one. This change in ideals went through long discussion and it has been through much debate to reach where it is at now. With the support of the government and approval from the citizens it has now been set in motion.

What does this mean for you? Little, if anything else. We are still your ally and we are still your friend. We will still offer our assistance where it may be required and we will still stand by you. The primarily change and difference that (possibly) affects you, is that we are stepping away from the 'political sphere(s)' that colour the game of Nation States.

We've taken the courtesy below, to dot point these changes for your perusal. Additionally, either myself (Olivia) or one of our emissaries will be routinely watching this thread to answer your questions should you have any. We're open to discuss this change with you so that you may be comfortable with the idea, if you are not already.


Summary:

- We still consider ourselves primarily raider.

- We're happy to aid our allies at updates and holds as ever.

- Main change a move away from massive holds of our own to a more fun and competitive lower level.

- Albion, where possible, will no longer assist in raiding RP regions. With our current on going changes, role play regions are, and will be natural partners for our internal culture.

- Albion no longer seeks military units or military allies and treaties. We instead seek to increase cultural exchanges between our region and others.

- We remain committed to upholding the terms of our existing treaties and foreign relations. We wish to endeavour, build and strengthen the cultural aspects of these already in place.

- We are not a part any wars, and we have no intentions of engaging in them in the coming future. Albion both recognizes and welcomes those from any NationStates background who desire to participate in our community. They will be able to do so without prejudice to their alignment. We do not however, and still will never support the Nazis.

- Our venture in pursuing relations with other regions has absolutely nothing to do with bolstering our own power, nor is it to add to our military strength or gain influence over other regions. Instead, Albion's focus will be on cultural activities and relations such as MOBA's and multi-player online games as well as role play. Our focus is on the interests that enrich the lives and enjoyment of our members and community and will be less fixated on the politics of NationStates.

Exciting times in possibly my favourite UCR, ever before this announcement. Albion has a really chill group of guys there and the culture they've already built up there is to their credit.

Albion is a perfect example of region building done right.
