COLOR CODING:

Green means you have completed this to a good standard and no improvements are required to progress
Orange means you have completed this to a reasonable standard but this will need to be improved on if you become an associate member. (in other words, this must turn green before applying for member state)
Red means this has been completed to a poor standard and will need to be improved before your application can progress
Bolded black means that this has not been included in your application and therefore you will need to provide evidence before your application can progress. In the secondary list, you will only have to provide evidence if you have not provided four other greens/oranges.


MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS - All must be green

A minimum of ten in-game pictures of your nation
A unique and realistic flag of your nation
A unique and realistic coat of arms for your nation
A map of your nation's location that does not overlap with an existing AIN nation and is realistic to your CJ style
A type of government that again matches your CJ style

A realistic size and population of your nation
No in-game UI
A reasonable ratio of custom content to maxis provided content (50/50 minimum), as that there is little repetition and a constant style of architecture
A detailed and realistic context (history) for your nation

The Network Addon Mod (NAM)

SUPPLEMENTARY REQUIREMENTS - At least 4 must be green

A custom terrain mod
Previous, positive and active contribution to the AIN
Attention to detail
A custom water mod
A decent amount of realism (no airports ending with a mountain or skyscrapers in the middle of a small town)
Regular updates and commitment to an external city journal (on either Simtropolis, SC4Devotion, SimPeg or Simsports, links required)
Active participation in a previous union (links required)
Have hosted a community event (must have been on a previous union or a site such as Simtropolis, SC4Devotion or Simsports, links required)
Realistic transport network appropriate to your city style and location (maps or pictures should be provided)
Custom Trees

Decent attempt at custom BATs/lots (pictures required)

You need at least 10 "Yes" votes to become a member. That means at least 5 more votes needed. Smile

I have a few reservations: Firstly, the national map seems to be that of Equatorial Guinea. The region view is San Francisco.

Also, how many duchies are there in Africa?

Yes, the location is better for me because I can use real information such as natural resources or sporting events for example. To the view region, this is explained by the fact when I started my city, in July 2008, I had absolutely no download... (but the other cities of Duchy have a original map, don't worry for you Wink )

To conclude, yes, it's a Duchy. And it's a very long story^^ First, when my city was in Simland, the story was: "The city is a Duchy of France" (She calls at beginning "Saint-Jean -le-Duc" (Sir-John-the-Duke)). But in Mars of this year, I left Simland. So, I write a new history but I kept "Duchy". Officially, it's a Duchy because the first Duke was a chief-military and Nazi (or fascist), and he controlled the country as Chief of Army (the Duchies are territory controlled by the military in Europe during Middle-Age). So, he creates a "Duchy of Giant Bay" where he has a total control his country Wink

And I thank people who they voted Yes, thank you very much Wink
