Okay! Having been chatting with Knoot for a while, and getting involved with a few WA-related RPs, I want to plunk a puppet down here and steal all of your secret information! I considered moving my main here, but I've got history in Antarctic Oasis and don't want to give up my keys to our secret basement, where we spend most of our time drinking, smoking, and making fun of people with ugly hats or who post in the Security Council forum.

But seriously: Knoot explained the Abt/Taraskovya connection and I would like to explore that idea more before I create a puppet and come bursting in, and we've been exploring options for a shared history. So, I have several thoughts on a Snefaldia-related nation. In general, the concept is one of Snefaldian expatriation at some point in history and contact with other WA powers, but the fiddly bits in between are wide open:

1. Autonomous dependency of the States-Federation, the current Snefaldian government. The domestic structure of the government can be explained a bit more here, but in essence it would a part of the States-Federation with high degree of independence. I have been told this isn't the most popular option, as there is some opposition to having extraregional powers hold territory in WA.

2. Former Knootian colony-turned Snefaldian prisoner dumping ground-turned modern republic, independent from the States-Federation. Could be made up of religious extremists who left Snefaldia at some point in time (probably during the secularist republic period). Or, could be an independent state made up of followers of Aatem Nal expelled from other WA countries.

3. Ethnic Snefaldian Christian haven. There is a sizeable minority of Catholic and Orthodox Christians who have been the target of low-level (and sometimes high level) persecution. Ethnically linked to the motherland, but politically independent. Basically the "long-suffering but still optimistic pioneers" option from the create-a-nation page.

4. Wealthy enclave of religious dissenters fleeing the monster of democracy now ruling Snefaldia. Doesn't have to be large- think Vatican city without the world-spanning religious authority or historical legitimacy.

I would like to have your community input to create a story that will fit in well with the regional RP-quilt, so please let me know what you think!

I'd still love for you to bring Snefaldia into the region. Pleeeeaaaaaasse *puppy eyes*. But failing that, any of those options are cool with me personally. Though a mix of 2 and 3 would be my personal favourite.

After shuffling some puppets/alts and thinking it over, I would instead like to move my main, Snefaldia, here, and dispense with all the puppetry and such!

My wiki is, of course, available for your persual and I would be happy to answer any questions. I will be AFK until Sunday evening here (Michigan, US).
