So as I understand....the reason you've gotten into defence is to avoid being condemned and getting a bad look? Perhaps you should look into the reasons why people are wanting to condemn you, and learn from that.
Laraniem defends to give the voices back to regions that have had theirs taken from them, as raiding destroys all of these thriving little communities across the site. No one should have the opportunity to enjoy these communities taken from them. It's not just a PR stunt to make us look good.
Ah, the fun stuff. Is 11th grade the start of a more senior school level in your system?

We defended and raided before, we don't anymore.
As we disbanded NSAA, we cannot raid or defend anymore, and now that we realized its dangers, we moved from it to defend ourselves and stop another raiding menace, and we look forward for people to stop raiding, (but not defending, that's great for us and for the natives of the raided regions, and also peacepromoting and peacekeeper regions?)
If what you look forward to is what you just said before, that's actually a very good compromises that defends pacifism and our today ideals. And to see why are people condemning other nations and regions? what I mostly see from condemnations is because of raiding.
And real-life ideals such as dicriminatory ones and IRL fascism, Condemn Macedon acted against those. And also, SC condemnations because of raiding? Esylium Station II, A Bloodred Moon, Lily.. Etc. You get the deal, we didn't move away from R&D because of condemnations, but also because we want to make NationStates a better place with your help and the help of any pacifist region itself.
After many delays in the preparation for LegendLeague, the competition in Vae Cloaca has almost begun. 6 teams have entered the competition.
Vae Cloaca North Vae Cloaca East Vae Cloaca South Vae Cloaca West Sigland Down Unian
In a move that some may see as unfair, all Vae Cloacan teams have been given a 1 goal advantage in all games, as a "home team payment". Both planes of the Siggish and DU teams have been mysteriously delayed, but the President of LegendLeague insists the opening matches go ahead as scheduled, whether the teams are there to play or not. With flight times up to 6h, and the first game set to start in 8, the likelihood of the teams playing is getting slimmer and slimmer.
State media predicts Vae Cloacan victory in all games.
"That doesn't sound biased at all," says Ferus Kolkanus, who has a suspiciously Cloacan-sounding name, in a statement about the competition. "If I had the choice, I would enter Koxor into LegendLeague."
