I don't know if this belongs here but I've figured that if you're into foreign languages you're obviously into foreign culture and stuff. I've also seen some threads about the UN.

So I decided to give it a shot. There's a new Guild called " GD's United Nations"

Here's the link
http://www.gaiaonline.com/guilds/index.php?gmode=index&guild_id=44429

You basically pick a country you'd like to represent and join. You have to know a bit about your country before you join though. Here are some of the already taken country

Taken-
Mauritius [[ lol, thats me]]
Nigeria
Rwanda
China
Israel
Korea
Malaysia
Qatar
Singapore
France
Germany[east]
Germany[west] (( apparently two people wanted Germany lol))
Greece
Ireland
Poland
Romania
Switzerland
Canada
Puerto Rico
USA
Trinidad and Tobago

Pending-
Venezuela
India
Australia
Iran

Well... You guys are cool so it'd be cool if you'd join. :]

I'd be tempted to join as Norway, but any guild with an entry fee is a guild I will never join. whee It looks very interesting though. Peurto Rico is a country?

Yeah it is. Even though it might as well be America's 51st state.

It's a commonwealth. They vote every now and then to decide whether or not to become a state, and they've always voted a strong NO. At least, that's according to a friend of mine. I certainly know they're not a state.

I learned in Spanish this past year that they do use $USD as their official currency, and they get unrestricted (as though citizens) flight to NYC, thus, PR and the US keep business close. Seems to work pretty well.

I applied for Russia, but I'm not sure if I did it correctly....
PostPosted: Wed Jun 20, 2007 4:20 pm


Oh, so YOU'RE the reason I was declined to join, SolstDerTod! I applied for Russia as well and was just denied because apparently somebody had already taken it. gonk

Being that Russia is the only country I'd be willing to represent, I guess I'll not join after all. mad D

Nope! I tried to get Russia and it was taken as well. It says Poland is taken in the post above, but it doesn't on the map they have in their forum so I'm trying for Poland..and if not then I'm trying for the Ukraine. sad

Woo! Ambassador for England and Wales! Time for a big party of tea, scones, welsh cakes, lamb, leeks and other annoyingly stereotypical English and Welsh things.
