Holy Paradise: A Land of Greatness

Holy Paradise is a huge country of over 970 million citizens. They are ruled by a president. His name is President John Holtz. The country is considered an "Iron Fist Consumerists" in the UN categories. The amount of civil rights in Holy Paradise is some, the economy is thriving, and the amount of political freedoms are some. Recently, the country voted to change the flag's design, wanting to have a unique and original design. A contest was started and the finalists were: a famous painter's drawing of Heaven and a child's drawing of a sun with a golden key on each side. The people voted for the child's design, and everyone cheered when it was unfurled to show who won. Even the artist who lost was happy.

Law & Order is given the largest portion of the government budget, yet Religion and Defense are beginning to get more funding. The citizens are known world-wide as very compassionate and kind. The average tax rate is 65% and the economy mostly supported by Uranium Mining industries. Crime is virtually unknown in the land.The national animal is the angel and the national currency is the gold coin. Here is more info on the country:

The History of Holy Paradise:

The First Inhabitants

Millions of years before the first colonists came, the land was ruled by human-like angels. They worshipped many gods and one divided them. The god's name was Garshinana. Worshippers of Garshinana offered him 10 human sacrifices a day. Non-worshippers believed this was barbaric and war broke out between the two groups. Before the war, there were 350,000,000 of these angels. The war lasted for about 1,500 years. After the war, only 15,000 remained. After 1,000s of years,the angels became what they are now.
The land was devoid of civilization for 10,000,000 years, until colonists stepped onto the site where Holy Paradise City now is.

The Rise of a Nation
10,000,000 years passed after the last of the human-like angels devolved before a dominant species would again rule the land. Between this time. Not very many things happened between this time. After 10,000,000 years of the country showing no civilization what so ever, colonists from countries around the world began searching for a new home. One group of colonists from the dissolved country of Johnmercia(which happened to be ruled by one of President John Holtz's ancestors) sailed into a bay looking for a place to call home. They kept sailing unknowing into the bay, still thinking they were in open waters. The colonists were led by the old leader of Johnmerica, Emperor John H.
On a warm morning on July 27, 1265 A.D., the word,"Land!" resounded from the top of a mast. The colonists rushed to the rowboats and sailed inward towards the shore. When they reached land, they began right away building a city. One of them was reported to say, "This land is truly a holy paradise." They all agreed that would be a good name for their land, and they became the first citizens of Holy Paradise right after they made the H.P. constitution.

The Country Gains an Ally:
Hundreds of years passed when President John H. came into power. He is still in power today. Not long after he was elected, Roach-Busters, who wasn't allied with HP yet, was taken over by a ruthless dictator. President John sent in troops and turned the tide favorably to RB's leader, President J.L. The war ended when the HP army obliterated the dictator's army and the dictator was arrested.HP and RB became great allies that day. Later, the former dictator escaped with the help of the greatest traitor in RBs history, who was also President J.L.'s best childhood friend. Skirmishes between the former dictator's terrorist group, the Red Dragons, and RB and its allies. After a while the Red Dragons divided into 5 groups, and soon a hitman from Doomingsland killed the former dictator. However the peace was to be short-lived.

The Civil War

Not long after the death of Insane, the former dictator of RB, a new threat rised in the southern Holy Paradise. A Communist multi-billionare, Darumbof Teridof, gained support from the people of the region, and after a terrorist attack on the Congressional House in Holy Paradise City executed by Teridof, the south annouced it was seceding from the north. The country was split into the Conservative United States of Holy Paradise and the Communist Empire of South Holy Paradise. A civil war erupted and in the end SHP surrendered not long after Teridof was killed by a Doomingsland missle about 11 months after the war started.(You can see where major battles of the Civil War happened on the map.) The country was reunited and is now facing no problems.

Recent Times
These days the country has faced about 4 major problems. The Capitalist World Summit was held in Holy Paradise City and helped form the CDA and the CEA.The country is currently trying to quash a Communist rebellion in Borman Empire.
