Looking to Estonia, the Most Digitally Advanced Nation

**********

Asgardia, The Digital Nation

As a nation, Asgardia is virtual, digital, and internet based. We will not really have any physical locations or offices for our citizens to go to wait in line to talk to someone or to apply for a service or to get problems rectified.  Because our  websites and apps will be the way our citizens shall primarily interact with the each other, the government, and the various related Asgardian services and entities, our digital infrastructure needs to be a, if not THE, primary concern.

Our website and mobile app infrastructure needs to be clean, easy to use, and as modern as possible not only as a reflection of our Nation, but so that this technology can facilitate and focus on getting Asgardian things done. Our websites and apps should make things easier and not more difficult.

We NEED a comprehensive website redesign and overhaul with powerful long term planning guiding it. A haphazard, organic, or piece-by-disconnected-piece process will not get us there and it will create an incredible amount of additional work in the long run. By not planning for success today we are planning for failure tomorrow.

Why Recreate the Wheel?

Because of this, we should be looking to those who have used technology to completely digitize their national infrastructure including the use of blockchain technology. Estonia has potentially the world’s most technologically advanced governmental infrastructure. Their governmental process is completely digital. Their residents interact with their government primarily through their websites and an app(s) which is also also how we as a nation will be.

Estonia has:

• * has completely digitized their government
• * is issuing E-Residency to people world wide
• * is establishing a cryptocurrency (estcoin) which will work with their e-Residency program as well as utilizing blockchain technology with their national infrastructure.
• 
  
• We should not try to recreate this amazingly complex wheel when it has already been done.  These are all goals that Asgardia basically has, so we should be looking to those who are already successful in such endeavors or are currently pursuing such ends. The government of Estonia is at the top for digital governments around the world and we need to learn from them so we do not waste time, money, and precious volunteer time.

• How can we start this?

  1. We can initiate talks with the the Estonian government for their advice.
  2. Talk with the company that created their webpages, apps, and blockchain tech.
  3. Talk with Estonian citizens that are Asgardia citizens to get screenshots, translations, and to see how well it works.

Our everyday perception of the universe comes from looking up at the sky to see the Sun in the daytime and, more particularly, to see thousands of stars in the night sky. Surely some of the oldest questions since the beginnings of human thought are: How large is the universe? Did it ever begin? What are the principal constituents of the present universe? Will the time ever end?

Did time begin at a Big Bang? Will the present expansion of the universe last for a finite or infinite time? These questions sound philosophical but are becoming, now in the twenty-first century, central to the scientific study of cosmology. The answers, which should become clarified in the next decade or two, could have profound implications for how we see our own role in the universe.

کتابی به زبان ساده و مناسب برای همه علاقمندان کیهان‌شناسی که بدون دانش تخصصی،  با طرح مباحثی چون بررسی آرایش و ساختار محتوای انرژی جهان تصویری قابل درک از مفهوم زمان و پیشرفت‌های اخیر کیهان‌شناسی  را در ذهن خواننده ایجاد می‌کند.
بررسی انفجار بزرگ و روند انبساط کنونی جهان هستی، مسئله‌ی همواربودن جهان و ترکیب انرژی کیهانی، شناخت ماده و انرژی تاریک و معرفی آینده‌های احتمالی جهان از مباحث مهم این کتاب هستند.

پاسخ به دو سوالی که عنوان کتاب هم می‌باشد در قالب چند احتمال مطرح می‌شود و این کتاب می‌کوشد تا محتمل‌ترین پاسخ را به روند شکل‌گیری جهان کنونی بیابد.

It has come to my attention that the voting process can be confusing to many Asgardian citizens.

If you do not know how to vote for candidates such as myself, simply follow these instructions:

1. Click on the 'Space Nation' subheading at the top of the page.
2. In the drop down menu, click on 'Elections'.
3. Once you have accepted the Asgardian Constitution, at the bottom of the page click on '1) Apply to Run in the Elections'
4. Click on the 'VOTE' button.
5. From there, you can search by my username, or scroll down the candidate list to find me. As of the making this post, I am number 16.

Thank you for your support! If all citizens who have commented and liked my previous posts vote for me, I will be one step further to leading us all forward.

What if the bacteria where the makers of nature and live. Imagine that they found a way to cultivate nature above the ground to store energy and to have food for themselfs. For the composting they could use some help so they created the insects to give them a helping hand. Maybe the sea life came at a later point and crawled on land to profit from nature. That was giving the way to the land creatures. The land creatures had to adopt themselfs to maintain nature for their food and to not destroy it as it was their food supply and protection. Then came humans, they killed animals and nature with their greed, apart from the tribes who lived in peace with the rainforest's and the eskimo's who lived on the northpole. Now we as modern humans are killing everything, including very small live and even the bacteria which gave us this beautiful earth to share.

I think we have to decentralize our human thoughts and think first at our environment instead of first thinking about ourselves.
