Section 3 - Language and Communication
1. English is the official language of Particracy, as a result, all users should be able to communication to a reasonable standard in English. The Particracy community made up of dozens of different languages and we welcome the diversity;
-- 1a. All public communications such as bill descriptions, party descriptions, politicians must be written in English;
-- 1b. Party names, constitutional titles and other variables (excluding bill descriptions, party descriptions and politicians) may be in a non-English language appropriate to the nations culture however if the nations culture has a different alphabet that might be difficult to understand, the Latin-script transliteration is required (example languages: Russian, Arabic, Persian, etc.);
-- 1c. Users should not be discriminated against for poor English, in the event of a breakdown in communications Moderation should be notified to perhaps assist in communications;


By this logic, the current name is itself a violation of the rules... ?
I would think that the name of the nation itself would fall under 1b, with the proposed name itself being in the language of the culture. There is a specific rule I've seen that the name must contain the English rendering of the nation name for simplicity, but most nation names afaik display in their cultural language.

New name proposal to include English translation:

The name of the nation CAN be in the national language but it has to be transliterated, there have been a bevy of parties in Sekowo who've failed to change this for a variety of reasons, mostly none of them remained long enough.

Moderation is moving away from having Native (English) and moving towards Native (Shortname) so we would not fulfill your request at this time until it complies with the rules.

Therefore you can provide the transliteration for the Japanese characters and have it be Native transliterated (Sekowo) and that would be acceptable.

Thank you in advance


Please note that we have stopped the general practice of having English (Native) and started to do either Native (Shortname) with the transliteration if in a non-Latin based alphabet or English (shortname) if so chosen.

Please tell use what you'd like.
