Requirements, paperwork, and the founding ceremony.

Creating a State

Minimum citizens, territorial claim process, and constitutional filing.

This page is part of the living Nexus documentation. Content is expanded continuously by staff and community editors.

Overview

Creating a State covers the essential rules, conventions and processes that shape this part of the Nexus experience. Every subsection below is a stable, citeable rule — staff decisions will reference these exact clauses.

Key points

  • Clear, unambiguous rules that scale to hundreds of players.
  • Written to be enforced consistently regardless of who is on duty.
  • Versioned so historical decisions can always be justified.

Section 1 — Scope

This document applies to every player on the Nexus main server unless a more specific rule is defined elsewhere in the wiki. When two rules appear to conflict, the more specific one wins.

Section 2 — Definitions

Player — any account connected to the Nexus network. Staff — moderators, administrators and system operators listed on the Administration page. State — a recognized in-game political entity as defined in Creating a State.

Section 3 — Enforcement

Violations are handled through the standard Punishments ladder. Appeals go through the Appeals process.
