Region
A region is an internal grouping of nations in NationStates. You can choose what region you are in, with a few exceptions(see Banlist).
There are two types of regions: regions that were created by the game admin ("game-created" regions), and regions created by nationstates players themselves ("player-created" regions).
Game regions
Game regions are regions which do not have regional founders, and power tends to be concentrated within the hands of the WA Delegate. One major characteristic of game regions is that they are the largest regions in the game. Whomever is delegate of one tends to become very important. Other game regions are called Warzones, and are commited almost solely to the invasion game.
Feeder Regions
Feeder Regions are regions into which nations have a chance of being founded. The Feeder Regions in the game are the 5 Pacific ones.
Sinker Regions
Sinker Regions are regions into which nations have a chance of being refounded, with the exception of the Rejected Realms, which is where nations go after having been ejected or banned from a region. The Sinker Regions in the game are Lazarus, Balder, Osiris and The Rejected Realms
Warzones
Warzones are special regions in which nation bans are temporary, ejections do not cost any influence, and the longest-serving Delegate in the region is shown on it's page.
