You don't need to ask the Role-play Council. If a country is not currently occupied, take it. The men that created the Role-play Council created it to give themselves more power and rule over those apart of role-play, but what they don't realise is role-play isn't a physical thing that you can govern and rule. It is similar to the Universe. The Universe is large, and cannot be singularly governed or ruled, it can only be tamed. The Universe is bound by laws that cannot be broken, similar to role-play. People who break those laws aren't good role-players. There is no role-play council. You don't need approvement to take control over an un-occupied country, just take it. Role-play is a forced used to describe the act of making your in-game experience as realistic as possible, you can't tell people what they can and cannot be in role-play.
