i88gerbils: I have not run across any item or discussion that lets you change nationality within Uncharted Waters Online. Does anyone have proof of this?

From 大航海時代Online(ja.wikipedia.org)

• 2005年6月29日　亡命システム実装。影響度が低い国家への亡命が可能となる。
  

means "29 June 2005. Exile system was mounted. Players came so that it could exile itself to the nation whose degree of an influence was lower than the present nation."

...Sorry, I don't have the confidence of the English translation that this is right grammatically. --Namany 13:05, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

i88gerbils: I see the issue here. 影響度 refers to the "influence" of the country. Usually this pertains to a port's "favorable trading status" with one nation in the game effecting trading. There is also a separate "hostility" rating that controls whether you can enter a port or not based on which NPC ships you have been hitting lately (only those with a flag by their name). It can be confusing.

As a further note, you can change your Job Class by using a "job change document" that you win from specific quests. These allow you to either change your class, occupation, or both. One would think there would be an item to change your nationality, but I have not seen any updates to that effect. (1/16/2005)

"影響度" means concerned national degree of an influence in the world degree in this context. This can be paraphrased with the national power.

And the first topic of Contents of an update on June 29 (A monthly update in July) in the official site, "「亡命」により所属国が変更可能に！" means "You learned to change a nation to belong by exiling yourself."

I write the English translation of this topic in the following as a reference.--Namany 03:27, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

The little nation of the power accepts famous voyager's exile.

If you are not WANTED and it is a voyager of the fame 20,000, you can exile yourself to the nation whose power is smaller than your nation and whose degree of hostility is low.

But, when you exile yourself, your fame falls down greatly (decline each fame 5000). Then, the degree of hostility of the nation which belonged before rises. Because of this, you must be resigned to these disadvantages.

The freedom of the player's behavior spreads out, and the power balance between the nations becomes unstable at a stretch by the addition of this exile function.

(You will be able to exile yourself to a new three nations added after August 3, too.)

i88gerbils: Thank you. I found more details in the FAQ. Dang Delfin for not updating their manual. And dang me for not paying attention to the updates at that time. I'd like to see someone exile. I'll see if a friend of mine can do it though I doubt he'll like the drop in fame.
