/namibia/ - A New Homeland

You are a hero among men, OP.
This is some of the shit we needed to know.

>talked about getting guns
I know you can probably find some beat up milsurp AKs or some shit in Namibia, but are guns even legal there? That's probably something that should be considered.

Answered my own question. You guys should probably look at this.

Section 26 of the 1990 Act states that no Namibian citizen may also be a citizen of a foreign country. However, this section of the act states that it is subject to the provisions of other laws. In a 2011 High Court case, Judge Dave Smuts ruled that a Namibian citizen by birth or descent could not be deprived of citizenship without consent, effectively legalising multiple citizenship for those citizens.[3][4] Applicants for naturalisation, however, must still renounce all their other citizenships under Section 5(1)(g) of the Citizenship Act.

If you have any other specific questions, I'll try my best to answer them.

It really is a beautiful country, but to do the things that you guys are planning would require some practice and training. Most people don't go from "1st world college kid" to "rugged outdoor survivalist" overnight. Even if you have woods experience and agricultural theory in other countries, Namibia has its own little quirks that you need to figure out in order to effectively put them into practice.

As painful as this may sound, many local people are actually intelligent and it would behoove you to 1) learn their language and 2) learn about their culture. You won't be seen as "one of them" but being seen favorably will go a long way in helping to build your commune.

Also, that's basically what it's going to be for a while (probably 40-50 years). Commune is a bit of a dirty word, especially considering most of the people here seem incredibly anti-leftist, but think of it more like "a small-scale co-operative movement" rather than some kind of degenerate hippy thing.

Israel keeps being mentioned as an example of "worthless desert to 1st world country" you might want to base your model of the settlement around the Kibbutz

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kibbutz

Specifically look at the paragraph

"Ottoman Palestine was a harsh environment. The Galilee was swampy, the Judean Hills rocky, and the south of the country, the Negev, was a desert. To make things more challenging, most of the settlers had no prior farming experience. The sanitary conditions were also poor. Malaria, typhus and cholera were rampant. Nomadic Bedouins would raid farms and settled areas. Sabotage of irrigation canals and burning of crops were also common. Living collectively was simply the most logical way to be secure in an unwelcoming land. On top of safety considerations, establishing a farm was a capital-intensive project; collectively, the founders of the kibbutzim had the resources to establish something lasting, while independently they did not."

These are suggestions, feel free to ignore them, but keep in mind that there have been *many* attempts to form new countries and communities in the past in order to escape the degeneracy of the societies they lived in. Study up on their successes and failures, there's no need to re-invent the wheel.

Yeah, it's a license based system. Considering you're going to be spending time in the wilderness and using them for self-defense against animals, getting a permit may be possible. You're gonna need to have citizenship though.

Stuff like this seems to be what you guys are getting at.

>>2283
Is it possible to establish the colony without citizenship?or that we can bribe the officials?

>>2293
I don't think so we'd have to try another place.

>>2293
Why not? Worst case scenerio, the settlers have to leave or hide out for a while. This is why all illegalfags must be eschewed.

The only way to start a new life in Africa is to sell ourselves as industrious immigrants after adventure. Which is what I want to be, anyway,

I heard a story about an elephant who got a bullet stuck in the nerve in his tusk. It sent him into a wild killing frenzy where he would stamp and wait for people to come and check the noise and then crush them/impale them on his mighty tusks.
How do we prevent this?

>>2318
Most desert elephants have small tusks due to poaching selectively breeding out elephants with larger ones.

>prevent
More like avoid. Give animals respect because they will fuck you up. Even stuff like wearing brightly colored shirts can set them off.

Fortunately, they mostly avoid humans. Treat them like you would a pack of grizzly bears.

Neat. You da real MVP OP.

About citizenship, most nations don't seriously consider giving up your citizenship if it's to receive another nation's one.

If it all comes crashing down your birth nation isn't going to be a prick and not give you your citizenship back.

Although it'll probably be an issue for naturalizedfriends.

Besides we can offer 90 day "internships" for the less hardcore to help us out. And even if this all goes to hell, maybe you'll make some wealthy White Namibian friends and you can decide to just move to Windhoek living like a White Namibian (which is actually pretty good they say).

>elephants

Are they friendly animals? Can they be used for labor? Do they attack?

>>7303
>"90 day "internships"
That'd be good for people who want to help, but don't have the means to fully commit(like myself)

>>7311
African elephants will fuck your shit. If we leave them alone we'll be fine

sorry for the sage>>7387
