A new Just Relax poll is up! This time we're taking a look at the famous Eurovision song contest, specifically the most recent edition. Which Eurovision 2022 song do you think is the best?
Parliament was back in session once again, with the working week debate top of the priority list. The week's media cycle has been filled with fiery debate and awkward interviews, giving the vote an exciting lead-up.
And for many of the nation's workers, an exciting result was announced.
40 For 32 Against
LINK voted as expected, as did Foundation and The Country Party. Citizens managed to get members back on their side, with only one crossing the floor and voting against the bill. Durkst had the deciding vote, of which they used to pass the bill.
The 36h working week is expected to be trialled and implemented slowly throughout the nation and its industries.

RP:TL2 - Koxoriek election reform bill The 38th Koxoriek Parliament has convened to vote on the election reform bill. First it will be voted on by the 320 members of the Imperial House, then by the 120 Federal Council seats. If both houses pass it, it will become law, but if one does not, the bill will go through a revision and amendment process, which will be repeated until both houses pass it. The king technically needs to give his consent to pass the law, but ever since an incident in 2013 when he refused to pass a law to limit his powers, the royal assent requirement has been indefinitely suspended.
RP:TL2 - Koxoriek election reform bill After days of campaigning and voting, the Imperial House has reached a verdict on the term length bill. As predicted, a large number of seats held by the ruling Humanist party - 159 out of 171 - voted in favour of the bill, but more unexpectedly, a significant number of Nationalist seats - 43 out of 98 - also voted for it. Only 7 out of the 45 Republicans voted for it. The one seat each held by the Socialist and New Liberal parties both voted in favour of it, as did 3 of the 4 independents. In all, 214 members of the House voted in favour of the bill and 106 against, enough for a significant majority and a passage to the Federal Council, where a 2/3 majority is required for the bill to pass.
The popular Hagstonian childrens' television show, Sammy Seal, has become the subject of debate.
The show takes place in the Rhegian Ocean, following the main character of Sammy Seal. Many side characters, such as Oscar Octopus and Captain Chris interact with Sammy throughout the series, often leading to some kind of adventure or mission.
As the highly popular show released its newest episode at the start of the week, many parents and critics have complained of the depiction of a cigar. Shelly Shark was accompanying Sammy on a rescue mission, when she was spotted blowing bubbles from a piece of coral lodged in between her teeth.
Many say behaviours like this should not be shown or promoted in childrens' television, or even television at all. The Hagstonian Television Regulation Board has received a record number of complaints, promting an investigation into current TV standards.
While the fire burns behind the scenes, the children of Hagston are just happy to see Sammy Seal back in their living rooms once more.
Im moving out of laraniem, laraniem has been such a big part of my life for a while but the region is dead and its time to move on. I have expressed this in other places but I'm going to leave to alcris and suggest that our region is shut down for good and kept for memories. Cyall on the other side, hetty signing off.
Why We Fight for Pacifism, we Fight for Pacifism, as it makes your region safer and it prevents your region from condemnations, many regions and nations have been condemned because of raiding and defending, we thought of now giving raided regions natives their voices again to make their community better in a passive way, that's why we have left this raiding policy
Our old military organisation, the Lightning Army, was closed because of having too many enemies, which could potentially result in a possible condemnation from either the enemies or by newsreader nations, we have promised that we would follow TLA's purpose and be the successors of it, but we have failed, after we realised the error we have committed after we have seen SC condemnations and their actual purpose seriously.
Because of this development, we stood up for pacifism, as our States also did, we also created the Peacepromoting faction, to show our fanatism for pacifism.
"We will bring Peace to NationStates as a whole." That's our Promise that if we Break, we will suffer the consequences of breaking it.
So to fullfill our Promise, join us on our mission to make NationStates peaceful and better, and to prevent the condemnations that come from raiding or defending.
