I joined in 2014 as an ambassador for a UCR. Being a GCR, TSP was/is one of the holy grail regions; the Gucci of embassies. I didn't think much about the region, even when I entered the GCR scene in 2014 — first in Osiris due to the interesting theme and then to Lazarus in 2015 due to the coup. When I was MoFA (or Sovereign/Delegate, probably the former), I vaguely recall being approached by Glen at some point to discuss an interregional democratic alliance as a counterweight to another one.

That was the extent of my involvement with TSP until Funk couped Lazarus in 2017. When he did so, TSP was at the forefront of the conflict, as one of the Lazarenes-in-Exiles closest interregional supporters. I remember Drugged Monkeys and Roavin being a tremendous help to the group and providing valuable counsel.

After we lost the civil war, however, I left NationStates for a good 6 months (a very productive RL six months due to all the free time ). And when I came back, I looked for Aume who spoke very highly of TSP.

My first impression of TSP as a Legislator back in May 2018 (iirc) was how organised the MATT-DUCK Law Archive appeared to be and how friendly Escade was. It seemed like a great place and I've been around ever since.
