Hi Verdiga! I'm so glad to see that you have decided to join our region and online forum! This is truly one of the best regions in the whole game, and there are tons of things you can do here.
You will be paired with a mentor shortly, who should be able to answer any questions you may have. However, that aside, you should definitely start out in our region for applying for citizenship right here:

Afterwards, you should look at our Executive Staff, which enables you to work directly in any Ministry that you are interested in. For more information, please go to this link:

And lastly, but certainly not least, you should consider joining our regional army, the North Pacific Army right here:

I know that this is a lot of information to process, but definitely look over the applications, and feel free to ask any questions that you may have. Keep in mind, these are not the only ways to participate. We have an excellent role-play department, spamming games department, and a University in which you could discuss anything from politics to science.
So please get settled in and welcome to TNP!
