NOTICE: Any actions you take on a page with this warning will NOT persist. # Welcome to r/TeenGovernment! Welcome! We're glad to have you join us! r/TeenGovernment is a *pol-sim* (political simulation) run entirely by teenagers! # Some info to start * Elections are monthly. * Anyone can propose bills. * If you're banned for any reason (excluding site-wide rules) you have the right to a trial. * [Join the discord](https://tg.zerr.cc/s/discords)! It's not required but you'll be able to get assistance much easier there. # What to do first? 1. Look around! Chat, don't feel like you have to propose a bill or run for government right away. 2. Join [a party](https://tg.zerr.cc/parties), not sure who to join? Don't worry, it's perfectly fine to be independent. 3. Look at [what bills exist so far](https://tg.zerr.cc/bills) and [our history](https://teengovernment.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page)! 4. [Register for a voter code](https://tg.zerr.cc/s/voter-code) and [participate in the census](https://tg.zerr.cc/s/current-census), you'll need this to vote in elections. 5. Vote, propose bills, maybe even run for government! ^(Courtesy of the ARPD organization [Learn more](https://tg.zerr.cc/s/about-us))
