[quote=@Shorticus] NP. But seriously, if you're worried: Zaqir isn't a city of conquerors if it gets accepted. Compare their style of warfare to that of Viking adventurers. They might go and take someone's England every now and then, but they're way more likely to just attack shoreline provinces, loot temples, run off with some human captives, that sort of thing. I'll honestly not be trying to wipe anyone off the map. [/quote] I know. But the thing is, I made the Regulii so sexually inclined as to try and [b]discourage[/b] people from attacking me and try to use some fucking diplomacy and yet here I am again with everyone automatically going on the warpath towards someone over something. Because in literally all the other NRPs I've been in, everyone is literally only focused on make a nation dedicated to war or industry and want to go charging in at the first sign no matter how noble they may be. Like seriously, Rome did more than just fuck barbarians with legions, Japan did more than make samurai armor and katanas and there was more to the Age of Sail than fucking pirates and colonial wars. Everyone ignores the fact that civilization has more than just guns and factory and decides that's what important about a nation instead of, I don't know, the fucking economy or the culture of it or its people. Everyone loves writing soldiers and heroes and leaders and completely forgo the average citizen or the artist or even the guy trying to start up a factory or discover something new. Jesus fuck this got more ranty and rambly than I would have ever accepted it to be but fuck it. I guess all the cough medicines are fuckign with my head or soemthing and making me snappy. I'm going to go an cool my head for a while now. >_>
