Welcome to NSWiki, the NationStates Encyclopedia.

Welcome to NSWiki. NSWiki.org is the successor to the original NSWiki.net, and contains encyclopedic information on thousands of different nations, regions and other interesting NationStates-related content. If you are visiting for the first time, you will notice that unlike the old site, regions are already here! Our bot has already scoured NationStates for information about your region, made some calculations as well as some educated guesses, and has produced the first draft of your NSWiki entry.

Welcome back to NSWiki. NSWiki.org is the successor to the original NSWiki.net, and contains encyclopedic information on thousands of different nations, regions and other interesting NationStates-related content. You will notice that unlike the old site, your regions are already here! Our bot has already scoured NationStates for information about your region, made some calculations as well as some educated guesses, and produced the first draft of your NSWiki entry.

In many cases, this is enough, but if you want to make changes, or add more information and content about your nation or region's history, culture, military, economy, or any other subject that takes your fancy, log in via your NationStates account and you can start editing straight away. Simply use the panels below to find your nation, region or other article and click 'Edit' to start editing.

If you're stuck or need any help, check in at the Help Center for tips on formatting, click the "?" bubble and submit a ticket on the bottom right, or if you're an IRC user, join us on #NSWiki on Esper.net.
