Discussion / Re: What inspired you to join micronationalism?

I became interested in micronationalism when I read that the land that the UN was on was independent from the US and that it was called a micronation. I googled the term and found MicroWiki.
Also, I don't intend to leave micronationalism any time soon.

Where are you on the political compass?

I'm -7.25 left/right and -3.69 authoritarian/liberal

I am not sure about the coordinates, but this is mine from a long time ago:

That would be about -9/10 left/right and -2/3 authoritarian/libertarian.

Hi,

I think the admins here should definitely aim to build a positive atmosphere and community here at MicroWiki.
I also understand the concern about quality and although I think that we to do more than just have the admins update the quality of articles. I think we need quality tutorials and documentations giving helpful tips and guidelines to writing articles. This would allow the wider community to write quality articles which will help the site grow.

I recently thought of creating video tutorials, but I am not sure how would they be recorded and what would be they about.
Maybe, how to create infoboxes?

For the recording software, http://camstudio.org/ would work, I believe.
As for subjects, the infobox idea would be good. Maybe a article nav bar tutorial too.
We could possible have a section where people could request tutorials, as well.

Since Nemkhavia is a transcontinental nation, our government doesn't meet physically.

The Head of State of Nemkhavia is the President, who is assisted by the Prime Minister.
Our legislature is the House of Territories who pass motions into law and is made up of one representative per state.
We also have several different ministries;
Federal and Foreign Affairs ? Social Affairs ? Propaganda ? Culture ? Infrastructure ? Economy ? Technology ? Defense.
