Makes sense. So sorry about my super late reply in my gallery thread lol. I was on a hiatus back then.

Oh, forgot what your about me said.

Oh I gotchu. You got them to hold a sign for you. That's cool.

Have some more confidence. :)
Btw I was meaning to ask, which person is you in your profile pic? I ask 'cause a bunch of people on PC have different genders going on lol.

You don't attend college?

Any of them school-related 'cause that's definitely me. lmao

Whatcha up to?

Hello :)

Basically I don't know enough of politics to actually know what I'm saying, but I think the Queen kinda makes sense.

There's still a huge difference between being bonded by a pact like the United Regions and being enemies. While that kind of relationship certainly gives some advantages, it brings many obligations along. Raoga can still be friendly towards the other regions and benefit of trade and assistance. As we're separate, other regions can't force us to do something unfavorable for us. They can certainly arrange some big project with the combined wealth of them, but we can decide what we do with that ourselves. When they decide to go for a united war against us, which is something I doubt all of them would agree on at the moment, we're most certainly done for, but not without opposition of ourselves, our allies and hopefully other regions that disagree to such views.

Arghh... the same happened to me right after that. Okay, I have to admit I hardly know what's going on regarding the UR. They were formed at some point in Skype when I was asleep (I think) and I'm rarely on Skype lately. So I'm keeping this one short and vague.

If they are well-organized, which I expect them to be, can already form a majority on global decisions by themselves. If they're not, we'll experience that soon enough and they fall apart as quickly as they were formed. But if they are, we should be watching out we won't get suppressed. At the moment, there's not much governing going on on a global scale. Each region had to take care of themself, but those xenophobic times have passed. Many alliances have formed over a very short time lately and of course that shifts the political field along. Where it will go is hard, if not impossible, to predict.

Definitely, go for it! Your Pokemon team also doesn't have to be specifically from Badr - the ones I listed are the ones used as locals, so the only people who'd have to comply to it would be children born on the moon xD

Recently we've developed a relation with Ceriah, a region close to us sharing a big part of our ideals. At the moment we're trying to start an alliance with Sangyo, but we have to await how that will end, but I have high hopes on a good relationship. Additionally we've heard many things around us about people creating these "United Regions", we'll surely have to investigate how this will revolve our political situation and how we should deal with it. Joining such a large group might be dangerous without thinking everything through twice.

That is indeed our aim. Pokéballs, to name something, are an example of something we copied from other places in the world. Items like those are commonly available in all places. As they're not protected by copyrights, we can distribute them as easily as bicycles. Yet there are regions that make use of more exclusive technologies and strengthening our contacts, might improve our chances to make use of those two. Combining natural resources and techniques not only improves the economy of both Raoga and its allies, but might even open up a possibility to shape something entirely new. Aside that, international relations can only be helpful when either region is in trouble. Two can do better than one.

No, I can't say it's a primarily industrial region, not at all. From what I've learned about the other regions, our industry seems not very advanced. The focus is on the basic needs, like food for both humans and Pokémon, textile and furniture. There's no real market for most advanced or technological objects and producing them on industrial scale simply wouldn't pay off.
I don't think Raogian industry can provide anything unique to the global market. Of course Raoga doesn't sit still and research is happening to improve known methods are happening here to, but they are still being tested and improved on lab scale.

:D

I'll be sure to do that later then :)

Is the president allowed to answer your Oceia questions?

Surprisingly not, aside from some minor events, I wouldn't want to call a few disagreements official conflicts. Now, I don't want to go in too much detail, but everything was solved diplomatically. Nowadays, the people from the north rarely visit the south and vice-versa. We're not living separated, don't get me wrong, northern Raoga is rich in many rare ores with complex names that are used a lot in the industry in the center and south. Nobody wants to force people to live their lives a way they don't want to, that would be dictatorship, and people get that.

Ah okay. Good. ^^

This is slightly harder to tell, but I dare to say this will work out well without a doubt. Raogans may all share their focus and dedication to their work and hobbies, but that doesn't mean there's only one culture here, not at all. Each part of the region has its own characteristic traits. While people in the city rather spend meet groups of friends and have as many acquaintances as possible, the farmers of Bluestream aren't used to company and spend their time by themselves and Pokémon. There are even people who dedicate their life to training their Pokémon team strolling around the nature eastern Raoga, avoiding civilization as much as they can. Another example is the people of Lornami. I don't know if you've visited the town, but I do recommend it if you like architecture. Their buildings are marvelous, yet the people act strange from the view of the city. They live with a strange culture worshiping the Unown.
Trade, exchange of both goods and knowledge would never hurt. On the contrary, access to tools we were not able to make before can only improve the efficiency of our all-day work. This is both expected to improve the economy as giving the people some more spare time they can spend how they want.

Raogans are busy people, they have always been like that. People take their work very seriously and spend the remaining time with family and friends, both human and Pokémon. With nearly no crimes being committed here and everyone taking care of themselves, the government got slightly laid-back over time, which has recently come to an end. With our contacts to other regions being limited to only a few trading ships, we fell behind our time on the field of technology to a certain extent. Our main goal at the moment is to make ourselves heard of on global scale. Raoga is part of the world. Therefore I'm happy to announce the building of Raoga's first airport, which will be located near our capital Volmia.

I think I might have failed at not going super detailed or whatever. Should it be shortened?
