Hello, and welcome to the Ministry of Regional Affairs of the South Pacific.  If you're reading this, then there's a good chance that you're either interested in getting involved in Regional Affairs, or wondering what on earth it is.  I'm here to help to with both!

The Ministry of Regional Affairs is the part of the government of the Coalition of the South Pacific which deals with welcoming new people to the region and helping them to get involved.  We are also responsible for running the regional journalism, supporting our roleplaying community, hosting festivals and, with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, holding or taking part in international events.  As such, the Ministry of Regional Affairs is, aside from the Assembly itself, usually the largest and most overtly active part of the government.  There is plenty for people to get involved in, lots of ways that they can contribute and ample room for suggestions, ideas and innovations.

We have six departments and, if you join us, you can be assigned to as many or as few as you like. These departments are Welcome, combining the departments formerly known as Integration and Gameside Improvement, Journalism, Broadcasting, Festivals, Creativity, encompassing what was formerly known as the art department, but also including music and creative writing, and RP.

As well as these forums, we also have a Discord Server, where we can chat about all the projects we're working on and plan in real time.  You can access it with this invitation link. There's also this guide to getting involved in the Ministry.

If you'd like to join us, please copy the following application form, paste it into a reply and fill in your details!

About me

So I'm an emotionally unstable asian student in my 9th grade who tries to juggle NationStates, extracurricular duties, precalculus and like 10 other subjects . My hobbies include some sports, playing the piano and doing stuff for Regional Affairs during my freetime. I am also an aviation geek who publishes stuff on flight report and tried to stream on twitch (which is inactive so don't bother)

Apologies for the apparent acceptance earlier. I've had to reject your application on the grounds that the nation you've given has CTEd. I'll be happy to reaccept your application in the future should this situation change. Just let me know.
