The New Pacific Order - A Presentation
“CRUMP!”
Yet another shower of dust fell from the ceiling of the vast underground bunker, twinkling through the shadows like magic powder as it passed through the flickering light generated by the banks of equipment that lined the walls.
“I make that, what, nuke number five?” asked the scientist.
“Six” his companion replied. “Be grateful you’re tucked away underground comrade.” He brushed the dust off his tattered epaulettes while casually kicking the ground with a scuffed jackboot.
“I’d rather be up there comrade,” said the scientist, gazing enviously at his superior’s blood-spattered uniform. “The barbarians are at the gate and I want to be there fighting them off.”
“No – your work here is much more important: breaking down the barriers between realities is not a matter to be taken lightly – in fact I believe the Emperor himself has taken a personal interest in this project.”
The scientist tried his best not to look nervous. “T-that’s good to know,” he stammered. “You’ll be glad to hear that initial results are encouraging. Our pioneers have already established themselves and while some of the natives are somewhat hostile, we have a secure foothold on a number of planets.”
“Planets? More than one?”
“Hundreds – this reality is very different from our Cyber Nations home, as that was from Nation States.”
“So the Pacifican revolution has taken to the stars?”
“Indeed it has comrade – the next test subject is about to cross over and the good people of Origins Return have already been informed that the New Pacific Order has arrived.”

A Brief History of the New Pacific Order
The New Pacific Order first came into being in the game Nation States in 2005 when our great founder Francos Spain declared revolution against the overlords of that realm and became leader of an alliance known as The People’s Republic of the Pacific.
Soon the New Pacific Order was proclaimed and a senate established, while the forces of the Pacific solidified its position in the world. From the capital city of Francograd, the founding tenets of the NPO was formulated, and thus was born Francoism – a philosophy of revolutionary pragmatism and realism. Soon players flocked to this alliance, drawn by the great opportunities opened up by the meritocracy that the NPO embraced.
Pacifica went from strength to strength and marched from victory to victory, but over the next few years it soon became apparent that the world of Nation States was just too small for the NPO. Thus began the great migration to Cyber Nations.
The NPO arrived in Cyber Nations in 2006, and under a succession of emperors built up a truly remarkable military and governmental machine. The NPO quickly transformed from upstart newcomers to a major power bloc – dominating the world of Cyber Nations like no other.
The NPO enjoyed a long and illustrious reign over this realm, but in the dark corners, forces were gathering – jealous of the Pacific Order’s success. Through misinformation, propaganda and deceit these forces poisoned the once-happy relations the NPO enjoyed with her allies, turning them away from Pacifica. Soon the NPO was vastly outnumbered by a coalition driven only by hate and jealousy. Under the banner of morality these forces gradually wore the NPO down through sheer weight of numbers until she was forced to surrender.
The NPO lay humbled – forced to pay crippling reparations that were designed to thwart any future rise to power. Yet rise she did! By 2010 the NPO regained her rightful place as one of the greatest alliances in Cyber Nations. Through hard work, dedication and comradeship the NPO grew once again, facing down those barbarians that sought o destroy them again and again.
And yet the people of Pacifica became restless. Tired of the constant tirades against their noble alliance, they began to look for further adventures. Then in late 2010 one brave comrade discovered not only one world, but an entire universe to explore! This noble pioneer returned to Francograd bearing incredible tales of cosmic wonder and soon others began to follow in his footsteps.
The New Pacific Order took to the stars and found Origins Return.

His breath quickened as he ascended the steps to the stargate. His Cyber Nation was small but comfortable (at least until the barbarian hordes had launched their attacks). Under the aegis of the NPO he had build up a trade circle, sold technology and ploughed any profit into improving his modest fiefdom. As a loyal member of the Order he had started the long climb up the alliance’s career ladder, but most of all he had made friends – good friends.
And now he was taking the ultimate step for the New Pacific Order – exchanging this comfortable life for a completely different plane of existence.
“Gateway operational in 10… 9… 8…”
The computerised countdown continued as the arc before him crackled into life.
“7… 6… 5…”
Blinded by the oscillating light, his thoughts went from that modest little land he’d called home to the new life of uncertainty and adventure beyond the gate.
“4… 3… 2… 1.”

Charter of the New Pacific Order
Introduction
We, the nations of the New Pacific Order, agree to promote national sovereignty, defend our fellow nations against outside aggression and advance the Pacifican way of life to the world.
Article I: Admission
Any nation wishing to join the New Pacific Order that has requested membership will be admitted, provided said nation does not belong to any other alliances and is approved.
Article II: Structure of the Order
The Emperor
The Emperor is the Sovereign of the alliance. As such, the Emperor has the sole power over the affairs of the alliance, although such powers can be delegated to others. The Emperor serves for life or until resignation. Every Emperor is appointed by their predecessor and ascends to the throne upon the termination of the latter's reign. In the absence of the Emperor, the Regent shall execute the duties of the Emperor.
Government
The Emperor can create any office and appoint any member to that office at his or her sole discretion. The Emperor can delegate power to said office to the extent that the Emperor deems appropriate. Such offices may, at the Emperor's discretion, create subordinate positions, delegate power to said positions and appoint members to them. The Emperor is the final authority on all matters and as such, any office, position or policy within the alliance may be altered or removed at the Emperor's will.
The Body Republic
All member nations of the New Pacific Order will automatically have a seat in the Body Republic.
Article III: Expulsion from the Order
Any nation member can submit a motion to expel a fellow member from the Order to the Body Republic floor. In order for the motion to carry, a supermajority (defined herein as 75% + 1) of the voting nations must vote in favor of the expulsion. There will be a time limit of 36 hours on expulsion votes and the expulsion will be carried as long as the nations who vote equal at least 10% +1 of the Body Republic. The Emperor can not be expelled from the Order. The Emperor can pardon any nation from expulsion. The Emperor can also expel members on his own initiative, without a vote.
Article IV: Amendments to the Charter
Any nation can submit a motion to amend the Charter to the Body Republic floor. Discussion will take place for a period of no less than 8 hours but no more than 36 hours. If a supermajority (defined herein as 75% + 1) of the voting nations voice support for the amendment before the 36 hour time limit is reached then the motion will be considered passed and carried as long as the nations who vote equal at least 10% +1 of the Body Republic. Each change to the charter mentioned in an Article IV amendment motion requires a separate vote for each change within the Article IV amendment thread for each change to be considered passed and carried.

The air inside the control tower pulsed as the latest Pacifican to reach Origins Return came into existence.
As his vision cleared, the first thing that drew his attention was the vast alien landscape that stretched out before him – illuminated by the weird glow of an extra-terrestrial sun. Forcing himself to concentrate, his gaze turned to the bewildering array of controls before him. He pressed a button tentatively, then smiled at the resultant rumble as, somewhere far below, construction began on his new planet’s first iron mine.
“Inform Imperial Command of my arrival and request a status report,” he barked.
Within seconds the well-oiled Pacifican machine sprang into life, flooding his display screen with messages:
“Aid delivery en-route to…”
“Raid progressing on…”
“Attack successfully repelled at…”
“Voting for new Imperial Officers now open…”
While he sat back in his chair, pondering the challenges and opportunities that lay ahead, a final message blinked up on his screen:
“Welcome to the New Pacific Order – Welcome to Origins Return.”
