Welcome to the Toy Islands Wiki

This is the official regional wiki for the Toy Islands region on Nationstates, with information on everything from countries to Military ORBATs and OOC information. We're hoping that this will soon be able to become a more comprehensive resource than the current forum-side Factbook or our entry on other wikis.

The Toy Islands is a region in Nationstates, located east of the Tsugaru Strait in the Pacific Ocean (or south of paradise, as we like to call it on our Regional Factbook Entry). It features a plethora of different geographic territories, politico-economic entites, and historical events, and so is unlike any other region on Earth.

Note on Canon and Editing

The world of the Toy Islands began as an independent government simulation game between friends, some of whom did not choose to go onto Nationstates. As such, the Toy Islands exists simultaneously in the game and on Nationstates. Though efforts have been made to reconcile these two worlds, some discrepancies still exist due to the fundamental natures of each. For instance, roleplayed wars on Nationstates are not recognized to be part of the regular game canon, since some countries party to the conflict do not exist in the game.

Where a discrepancy arises, game canon takes precedence, so most sources of information on Toy Islands countries (such as the Wiki) are geared more towards the game. Hence, the editing of information on a particular Toy Islands country should be left to their respective player. Nevertheless, game canon should only be seen as a reference, and can be set aside in the interests of a good Nationstates-based roleplay.

Further information can be found in the canon guide.
