I'm no one to judge, but isn't that repeating yourself 🤔

I've played enough free-civ to recognise the Iroquois belt anywhere 😂

Love the colour contrast. Certainly better than my flag of Aragon.

According to the 1983 film Wargames, that's the only winning move. :)

I love it!

It appears to combine the Iroquois symbol thingie, the Blue and Orange of the Netherlands (and by extension NYC and New Amsterdam), and the blue and gold of Sweden. Nice touch!

All everythings are welcomed to my region! Except invasive species.

But aren’t invasive species everythings?

It said that it starts at either Midnight or Noon for me, hopefully noon.

I'm personally a fan; my nation is inspired by the Iroquois :)

Yes. "invasive" and "native" are highly debated terms in themselves, and in their application to specific circumstances. It doesn't help that "invasion" is known to occur naturally. The global spread of homo sapiens is probably the most obvious example, and indeed human activity (and the results) are often cited as the instigation of "invasion." Not sure how I feel about that since it seems to attach normative baggage of the variety playing into the notion that homo sapiens and its behavior are somehow not natural. This wrinkles my nose a bit.

At any rate, "invasion" is known to occur naturally as a successful species begins to move beyond its "native" ecosystem. This is evolution doing its thing. Things get dicey, though, as Homo sapiens developed just enough pre-frontal cortex to invent religions normatively justifying this expansion on the basis of its God/Soul/Sapience/Intelligence-given Dominion over nature (see why my nose is wrinkling?) but this is a fundamentally different problem.

Ceteris paribus, a species being successful in a given and adjacent environment at a given point in time is just evolution doing its thing.

EDIT: expanded the list of *-given sources of Dominionist ideology to include the atheistic religions.

Tautologies give me brain constipation.

See, "invasive species" isn't really a thing unless one makes significant normative assumptions that possibly and basically boil down to 1) evolution is bad, and 2) homo sapiens are un-natural.

Whatever, my point is since the animals that Julunaphra was referring to exist, they are part of everything, thus “invasive species” are a thing. Plus, they can still exist on their own as a concept, thus they are a thing

the regional map is on the home menu. Just click Forest, and you will find the Regional Map menu

You also need 50 influence in order to be placed on the map (see here) and since you have only 34 and gaining 2 per day you should apply to the WA since getting endorsements increases influence (not to mention deciding how much land is allotted) 👍

If you have 34 influence than 8 more days until you reach 50

The united nikland wrote:So I have to be here for 8 days?

You don't have to, I guess influence is based on how old you are

You sure you don’t want to speed it up by applying to the WA?
