  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world

This is probably a really weird question for most, and I apologise if this doesn't fit this community, I couldn't find a more applicable one. I'm trying to find a roleplay group. It's very strange and niche, but I'm looking for people interested in roleplaying as anthropomorphic countries (CountryHumans). The platform would specifically be Stoat Chat. If anyone is interested, DM me for the invite link!

Viewing this on Suppo.fi, I can't see any of the new comments, for some reason, but I can see them on PieFed, but I don't have an account there so I can't reply.

@MagicShel@lemmy.zip Sealand is off the coast of the UK, lol, just outside of their borders in international waters. @RebekahWSD@lemmy.world I've never heard of that, what is it?

@RebekahWSD@lemmy.world That sounds interesting!

Birthright was a setting in Advanced Dungeons and Dragons (so second edition ish?) with rules for playing like countries more than adventurers. Well heads of state and the such with politicking. I never played, but my husband did.

It wasn't the most well known setting and I don't think it ever got any updates unlike other settings (like faerun or ebberon etc) but it fits your idea of playing as nation states with tweaking!

Not for me but I'm delighted to know there are people into that. Maybe try the country ball community?

You need to find people who did Model UN in high school / college.

Kinda a weird premise. But if I did, I'd play Sealand. I don't even know where the hell it's located, but I do know it's ridiculous.

Reminds me of AD&D Birthright? Except that was head of countries and not the manifestation of countries I think.
