Wouldn't the "Issuing Locale" thing be AS? I mean, we're a small nation, there's a high chance that only place where people can get registered is the capital (also the local priest, but that would be unofficial in eyes of paperwork)...

Ok, I am done. Not sure if all those things count as facts of life in the capital, but I can come up with something later. But I should have a pretty solid description of a capital.
5 pages because there is no do or do not, but only overdo!

The small parliament so often mentioned is the ruling assembly of the nation, composed of roughly 30 people , representing the administrative divisions of the nation. More than half of the seats are from the south bay area, directly descended from the historical seats of the first council. the other seats were added after 1877, in a number big enough to not anger the locals and small enough to keep all the power in Arstotzka.
While some of the seats, especially the newer ones, are elected by the population, many are still hereditary or appointed ( descended from nobles or appointed officials)

Most people would get issued one in their home town, or at POW camps, at ports, or what-have you.

We allowed to do more than one 'fact of life'?  If so, I have plenty more to edit in to mine.

Also are we allowed to collaborate on ours? Such as the addition I made to yours about the previous capital city?

I am not the GM, but I don't see why we would limit ourselves. The game has gained a lot from those propaganda wars.

and I can't see why collaboration would be banned.

My original thought was a name and small snippet to fit nicely in the faction OP threads, but screw it, open the floodgates.

-1 to flanderising our GLORIOUS nation of Arstotzka by making numbers our citizens' actual names. This also applies to naming our cities with numbers outside of engineering plans. Let not what happened to Moskurg (tigers) happen to us.

edit: anyone in the nation willing to cooperate on a single submission?
I think you've done pretty much everything.

Glory to Arstotzka.

All fanfics are heresy, each and every one, especially the shipping ones. Those are by far the worst.

I start to feel this thread should be worthy of induction in tvtropes or any similar fora.

Hey Sensei, are the 1910 and 1910 Mag machine guns still in use or have they been replaced by the 1924? Also, the AS-51 Steam Engine has been made obsolete but it's still in the sheet.

Agree, plus that's about the LAST thing *I* want to see from this kind of game - author spending valuable development time on useless graphics.

I just realized the gun is on the wrong side.
