Greetings to the nation of %NATION%!
Great to see that you are still in
The North Pacific! I wanted to let you know a little bit about the opportunities available to you in our region. I hope that this information will hopefully make your settling here an engaging experience! For more information about these and other opportunities, you should also
check out our regional handbook.
The forums are where most of the magic happens! Regional forums are the next level of gaming in Nationstates, that's why pretty much every region has one. And ours is one of the best and most active in NationStates. Government, role-play, spam games, it has it all! Come and check it out at:
http://forum.thenorthpacific.org/ . To get you intrigued, here is a sampling of what you can get involved in.
Citizenship
Being a citizen gives you access to almost the entire forum. It also allows you to vote and be a candidate in regional elections - this is the path to becoming a Justice, Speaker of the Assembly, or even Delegate! Additionally, as a citizen you are a member of the Regional Assembly, the legislative body of The North Pacific and one of the most active legislatures in NationStates. In the Regional Assembly, you can help decide the direction of the region by proposing laws, debating current proposals, and holding accountable officials of the Government. All it takes to become a citizen is have a nation in The North Pacific (you already do!), and posting an application here:

Executive Staff
This program allows you to work in one of the governmental ministries to build your experience and name recognition! You can choose where you would like to work, and then learn valuable skills that will help your career in government. As part of the Executive Staff, you can be a diplomat, a reporter for the regional newspaper, a recruiter of new members, faculty staff in our University, and many more. If you are interested in joining the Executive Staff, then you can find descriptions of various positions, and apply in this thread:

And if you want to write your own resolutions, our many expert WA authors are here to help you maximize your drafts' chances of success. You can do all these here:

that involved? Well then consider becoming a...

I am looking forward to seeing you on the forum! Just so you don't become concerned, it takes a little bit of time for our forum administrators to authorize your account, so please be patient!
