South Pacific: the long-standing, raid-free home of established players such as The Lepearchauns.

The region whose WFE once boasted proudly that "RAIDERS WILL BE DESTROYED" is now in the hands of The Black Hawks, who took over the region along with forces from Unknown, The Black Riders, Kantrias, and Ainur. TBH General Jakker had placed the nation "Do What Thou Wilt", now pointman, into South Pacific as a "sleeper nation"; he slowly gained enough native endorsements to make the endo count of former delegate Dorig surpassable by a speedy raiding crew 14 days ago.

The nation is currently at 37 endorsements with additional support flooding into the region from ACA, The Land of Kings and Emperors, The New Inquisition, [region]One Big Island[/region] and The Brotherhood of Malice. One defender, clearly confused about the identity of the leader of the raid, commented, "Damn that fenda Mall, he's piling again. All the fun is gone." Another defender who said, "It is sad to see that Raiders would prefer to hide behind large walls of endorsements instead of being willing to face Defenders at update. It's almost as if they're afraid."

In spite of this, defenders have not been forced to completely give up any attempt to liberate the region. One liberation attempt took place at last Sunday minor update when over 20 defenders from the United Defenders League, the Founderless Regions Alliance, the Forces of Mordor, and the British Armed Forces swept into the region. Although the coalition did have the numbers to take the region, the majority of defenders missed update due to variance. They later found out that the invader lead's computer had frozen during South Pacific's update time so if the defenders had jumped earlier they would had almost guaranteed success. Native resistance has so far proved futile and TBH has started to eject natives in what many defenders would describe as "griefing." If defenders hope to liberate this region before it is griefed, they need to hurry up.

However, the raid has not been completely negative as older players such as DEN soldier Of Crazed coming out of the woodwork to help the effort. Also, Osiran Pharaoh Mad Jack's puppet nation Cromarty has been ejected 10 times, leading to a count being kept on South Pacific's World Factbook Entry. The Rejected Times writers have started a pool on how many times this nation will in fact be ejected, with guesses ranging from 12 to 28. Mad Jack was unavailable for comment at the time of publication.

Defender forces moved into [region]United Kingdom[/region] 9 days ago in response a threat of invasion. United Kingdom, a region renowned all over NationStates for its political gameplay, is also one of the most high-profile independent defender regions along with Mordor and Spiritus. Members of [region]the United Defenders League[/region] moved into the region to support delegate United Kingdom WA Delegate after a plot was uncovered to take over the delegacy. The region's "regional controls" are turned on at all times as the founder is not involved in the government. This unfortunately also leaves them vulnerable to attack, especially since their founder has been known to go inactive. Through the combined UDL and BAF effort, the delegate gained well over 20 endorsements. As such, no invasion has taken place.

Some citizens are concerned about the possible invasion, but one government official was confident that the mission was a success. "I feel good. Through actions of certain government staff, and excellent co-operation from the UDL, the UK was successfully defended from an attack by hostile elements, and their operations disrupted, as well as valuable Intel gained that will help secure the peaceful future of UK and it's citizens." We wish the best of luck to UK in their effort to remain invader-free!

"Getting started again": An exclusive interview with Gates the God
Interview by Unibot

It's been almost a year since Gates the God, founder of Gatesville, unexpectedly ejected and banned the entirety of Gatesville. Gatesville had been the quintessential National Sovereigntist region and its sudden conclusion, as well as the unexpected departure of Gates the God has left a void for similar regions, Gate of Evil, Glass Gallows, Holy Moosean Empire and Equilibrium, to try to fill. But just recently, the self-titled "freedom fighter" has returned to NationStates to take refuge in The Pacific. I took this opportunity to sit down for an interview with the browbeating General. Enjoy!

Unibot: It's been a while since we've last met, Gates! Welcome back. So to start off: why have you returned to NationStates? Do old addictions die hard?

Gates the God: NationStates has become too placid and individual nations no longer desire to fight the WA and her lapdog the SC. I’ve come back to fight the good fight against that sovereignty-stealing institution masquerading as the WA.

Uni: Bit of an icebreaker here. Your favorite NS Leader? Your Favorite Enemy (Region/Organization/Individual etc.)? And finally, since this is for The Rejected Realms' paper: if you could eject and ban someone to The Rejected Realms right now, any NS player (CTE'd or alive), who would it be? *crosses his fingers*

Gates: My favorite leader would have to be Francos Spain, all he tried to do was lead the nations in The Pacific to the promised land of wealth and honey. However he was under constant attack from the rift raft in The North Pacific and the misguided fools in the ADN. My favorite enemy? The WA, of course; any other in-game enemies were either destroyed or reduced to nothing. Who would I ban to the RR? *Points to you the number one WA whore, summons my security forces put him in chains whip him then send him to no mans land.*

Uni: Yikes! Well, what's one development in NationStates since you left that has really surprised you and why?

Gates: Honestly I thought the game was done but Max and the mods did a hell of a job to bring it back.

Uni: After the break-up of Gatesville there emerged a lot of different Sovereigntist regions, which you could of chosen as your new home. But you didn't. You chose The Pacific. So, why The Pacific?

Gates: Pacifica and Gatesville go back a long long time. I died there and came back there.

Uni: Do you still have an interest in the Sovereigntist movement? (Should I be watching out for you and your meat cleaver loitering outside of the Halls of the WA is what I'm really asking here.)

Gates: Why else would I return I have to ask? I'm the real freedom fighter of NS, fighting for the rights of nations, fighting for the rights of regions, against the dictatorship of the WA.

Uni: While you were absent, Concosia was griefed and is now held as a "proud dominion" of the Empire of The New Inquisition. The New Inquisition justified the griefing on the basis of meeting an ally's promise to destroy the region. That ally being, well, you. Your thoughts on this?

Gates: Although I have been gone for almost two years I still have friends in high places more then you could dream of.

Uni: I don't think it was ever in writing 'why' you ended Gatesville? We all remember the abrupt ending of course. So, might I ask, why you ended Gatesville?

Gates: Ending Gatesville is a personal matter and I wish not to discuss that in public.

Uni: Sure, absolutely Gates. It's become a bit of a mystery as to who is holding onto the founder account of Gatesville now; any guesses? Or do you know?

Gates: Some region collector, I guess. I've contacted him or her to return it to me but if that fails no big deal. Something new will be created, something that will lead the nations of NS to their well-earned freedom!!!

Uni: You ran one of the largest and most powerful User-Created Regions of all time and it had a really unique identity and appeal that has inspired a ton of spin-offs. Any tips for someone planning to found a "super region"?

Gates: Yes make me their founder.

Uni: Perhaps he is a well-known figure and I'm just as bad of a RL historian as I am a NS historian, but I've always been curious who the historical figure is depicted in your flag. Care to enlighten me?

Gates: Wow that goes back a long time he is my Ex-Wife's grand uncle. I got it off her family's photos. I don't remember the country but he was a General.

Uni: It's been rather well publicized that The Pacific is in the process of revitalizing. Your thoughts on the revitalizing? And are you planning to have a role in this revitalization?

Gates: I see that the Pacific is revitalizing and it looks like a pro-sovereignty stance. See, I've preached this for so many years in NS. Now folks are realizing my jihad, now folks are seeing the corruption of the WA and her bitch the SC. I will have an active part in advising, contributing, to any nation or region that needs my advice.

Uni: Will Gates the God be making our paper's headlines again sometime soon?

Gates: Well Gates is getting started again. Gates is doing what needs to be done.

Uni: Oh I almost forgot, here's Galiantus's card *hands Gates a business card*. You two will really hit it off. I promise. It was an honour and a pleasure as always, Gates. Anything else you'd like to tell our readers? You have the floor!

Gates: Hail Gatesville!!!
Death to the WA!!!

A massive coalition recently took the delegacy in Warzone Europe. The coalition consisted of notably Lazarus along with allies of the Pacific, Balder, Europeia, The North Pacific, The New Inquisition, Ainur, Osiris, and The Rejected Realms. The coalition lead failed to seize the delegacy due to the pointman moving in while Warzone Europe was already updating. The coalition managed to take the Delegacy at the next update and reached dozens of endorsements on the point. It was also notably the first official training mission of the rebooted Pacific Army.

However, what seemed to be just a simple training issue turned into political tension. Tim Stark, Sobek of the Medjai Guard of Osiris, prioritized the liberation of RORMS over piling into Warzone Europe with the other GCRs and allies. This caused accusations of the Medjai Guard prioritizing UDL missions over that of GCR allies from both Balder and The Pacific. Also, RORMS had an in-game embassy with The Greater German Reich.

The Pacific's Administration was outraged and began to question the integrity of Osiris's military reliability and dedication to the fight against Nazism. The Pacific, at war the the Greater German Reich, promptly posted on Osiris's forum to express their disapproval of Tim stating that "...the Pacific must issue this press release, condemning the actions of Tim, Sobek of the Medjai Guard, for his actions on behalf of Osiris over the past day". The Administration of the Pacific argued that it was saddened that Tim would support his comrades in the liberation of a region who maintain ties with the Greater German Reich.

Lord Ravenclaw, Vizer of Foreign Affairs of Osiris, promptly responded stating that, "I would like to remind The Pacific, that the Sobek (Commander) of the Medjai Guard, is well within his legal right to decide which operation he will give his attention to." He also argued that RORMS maintains a staggering one hundred and three ingame embassies and that the political ties of RORMS and the Greater German Reich are frivolous. Also, he mentioned the refound of 'Fluffy Bunny Town', a Nazi region, by the Medjai guard. He also reassured the Pacific that Osiris is indeed anti-Nazi and works hard to stop Nazis in-game.

Delegate Madjack of Osiris also reminded the Pacific Administration that the Medjai Guard answered the call of Senator Gaspo when he asked for support earlier this month for Krulltopia, that in-game embassies do not reflect close allied ties, and the refound of 'Fluffy Bunny Town'. He later also issued a statement that there had not been any offense meant by not participating in the mission and that he hoped that Osiris and The Pacific would be able to forge a stronger friendship in the future with better communication. Senator Gaspo of The Pacific responded to such with, "The Pacific greatly appreciates your consideration in this matter, and upon reflection and on the basis of the final response we have received, does not believe significant damage to have been done, ultimately, to our strong friendship. The Pacific continues to support its non-treatied but ever-close friends in Osiris, and looks forward to continuing to strengthen those ties in the future."

Osiris troops moved into the region before the coalition finally departed. The region is now in the hands of soldiers from the United Defenders League.

The region ‘RORMS’ fell under raider attack this past week by The Black Riders in a tagging spree seemingly led by Koth. The region RORMS houses the community of the Region of reunited muslim states due to that region coming under attack and being virtually destroyed by TBR last summer. Raiders began to pile into the region in what appeared to be an attempt to hold and perhaps grief it. TBR was back in control of this community.

Unfortunately for TBR, defenders were ready and prepared to liberate the region at the next update. While raiders swarmed into the region, having switched point nations, defenders prepped and called in their friends to help liberate.

At the next update, the United Defenders League with the help of The South Pacific Army, Right to Life Army, Coalition of Catholic States, Medjai Guard of Osiris, The Founderless Regions Alliance, and The North Pacific Army successfully liberated RORMs from the hands of the raiders, pushing the original native Delegate back into his seat. The count was 30-22 when update hit.

An interesting thing seen in the liberation of this raid was the use of “native switchers” instead of the usual gathering in Kyzikos or other ‘defender jump joints’ that are used due to the fact that they update very late. We also saw many nations already established in RORMS join the WA to endorse the former native delegate, leading raider Koth to state: “bastards were comin out of everywhere...damn near piled me out of the region *from inside* with all those sleepers”. This shrank the margin between the native Delegate and the raider Delegate, making the liberation easier to achieve.

Johor, the native Delegate, posted on the RMB after the liberation that RORMS was “ever greatful to its powerful and loyal allies. Thank you, liberators.” Other natives also spoke up about the liberation, one stating: “This is a glorious day RORMS. Allies are friends for life.” Another, however stated, “yay RORMS is free...But for How long? xD.”

Congratulations to the liberators and to RORMS and better luck next time to TBR!

The war between [region]Mordor[/region] and [region]A Reach Too Far[/region] has finally ended! The war began when Joshua was caught recruiting members of Mordor and refused to apologize and ended with the collapse of A Reach Too Far. The region has now been colonized by an unknown player after first, the delegate Aclany ejected many nations out of the region, and then the founder, Human Metrinome, aka Jedi-Gangsters, aka Joshua, ejected the rest of the nations. Aclany claims that A Reach Too Far was "covered in Mordor spies" and that he was "unable to trust anyone".

The player behind the current founder is unknown. Mordorite officials are expected to comment on the incident soon, but it is safe to assume that the war is over. A Reach Too Far, which once stood at over 100 nations, is no more. Refugees from the region are reportedly relocating to Knights For Justice. The Rejected Times wishes them the best of luck as they look to rebuild.

JAL Coups Hotel Quebec, Reportedly "Not As Fun"

Residents of Hotel Quebec awoke this morning to an unpleasant surprise: infamous feeder tyrant Durkadurkiranistan, aka John Ashcroft Land had endo-swapped into the delegacy by receiving the endorsement of Faragas, the only WA nation in the region. However, JAL was unsatisfied with this latest feat. "I thought that couping UCRs would be just as fun," JAL said, "but it really isn't. I miss that eject and ban button."

Natives in this foundered region were reportedly going about their daily business. One said, "Yeah, I'll just keep answering my daily issues." Another added, "I didn't even realize anything was out of the ordinary." JAL is allegedly planning another coup soon, except this time, he says, he will make sure he can eject at least a few nations. "They didn't call my reign in TNP a purge for nothing," said Durk, before resigning WA. "I've learned a big lesson today: Taking over UCRs is just no fun."
