Europeia Hits 1000

Today is a momentus day in the history of Europeia. Not too long ago, the region reached a goal which seemed unimaginable for any one region to achieve in NS, let alone a second. Europeia's ascension to the group of elite regions who have held populations of 1000 nations is a phenominal achievement.

Minister Asperta had this to say regarding the celebrations: "We have proven our capabilities and risen beyond what was expected. If the NationStates world looks at Europeia as I see it, they will also marvel at what we have become."

The Minister was not shy to warn the region that we must be vigilant and continue the hard work which has gottn Europeia to this point; "CTE storms will hit, and some will not be gentle. These will threaten our size and attempt to take Europeia down. Several regions are also at our tail, longing to become what we are today. They will not stop, and neither should we. They will be trying to overtake us, just as we did before."

Certainly, Gates the founder of the first region to reach 1000 nations, Gatesville, stated that on average a region should expect to loose 10% of its nations per day. With its welfare ministry and enticing politics, could Europeia beat the trend or will it have to work even harder if it expects to grow further?

Regardless of what the future holds, the importance of this achievement cannot be ignored. Europeia has stood up and told the world that it has not gone to sleep just yet.
 
Recent trends suggest we're losing between 0.5% and 2% of our nations daily, and obviously gaining more than that, as our population continues to grow. :)
 
Aye, our loss rate is significantly lower - this may be because we gained 500 nations in five months, a rate faster than most regions, thus the gained nations in Europeia are newer and thus less likely to CTE (in the sense that the older a new nation gets - to a point where the trend would reverse again - the more likely they are to get bored of the game and leave, if they have not signed up on forums or done anything that typically extends longevity). This is an awesome thing :D
 
Quite the feat indeed.

Either thats a typo for 1%, or just plain wrong.

Nonetheless it is a magnificent achievement to reach 1000, and quite a challenge to remain there.
