My nation is unfortunately a reflection of my views in the most radical extreme. :rolleyes:
It is very socialist and apparently my citizens like that. It doesn't seem to me that there really is a national economy. I'm trying to change that, but in careful moderation. Everything needs to be balanced, it shouldn't be too capitalist. My citizens are very busy people they have given birth to 23 million babies in the last two days!

I started out just trying to create the most evil dicatorship possible(I killed whenever possible), but I eventually started to try to bring it around to capitalism, though my income tax is still at 72%(grr, stupid wealth redist.) My goal is to get the taxes down to about 10 to 15 percent, if that high.

no business whatsoever (damn little kids selling lemonade)
world benchmark for civil rights
average political freedoms
imploded economy
The Commonwealth of Dementedus_Yammus is a very large, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its strong anti-business politics. Its compassionate population of 82 million enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, liberal, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it concentrates mainly on Education, although Healthcare and the Environment are secondary priorities. The average income tax rate is 100%. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising fourteen-year-old boys selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.
Prime commercial land is being swamped with archaeological teams, councils up and down the country wrangle over legal matters, people reciting Shakespeare have become a common sight, and roads are often backed up with round-the-clock construction crews.. Crime is totally unknown. Dementedus_Yammus's national animal is the yam, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the yam.
Dementedus_Yammus is ranked 2nd in the region and 23,042nd in the world for Best Weather
My nation is known, for the complete lack of privacy, and a nation which many of its laws are there for religious reasons.
Social Equality is an unknown word, since we do not believe in equality, we truly believe some people are just better than others.
My Economy is Communistic, with Capitalist Tendencies.
hmmm My nation pwzn everyones. It is a very safe nation, with great weather and all my people are educated in both religion and science. It's sorta like Israel.... :)
Actually thinking a bit more, i think it is pretty dang close to how Israel's policies are. :eek: (Although Israel probably has some Social Equality)

The Hellish Underworld of HadesRulesMuch is a massive, socially progressive nation, renowned for its complete absence of social welfare. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 1.946 billion enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.
There is no government in the normal sense the word; however, a small group of community-minded, liberal, pro-business individuals juggles the competing demands of Defence, Commerce, and Public Transport. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture industries.
Citizens are frequently held up at gunpoint by their local pizza delivery boys, the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, inheritance tax has recently been abolished, and scenic mountain valleys are flooded with water as damming projects get underway. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is crippling, and the police force struggles against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. HadesRulesMuch's national animal is the cerberus, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the Manwich.

Basically how I've planned it to be, a corporation controlled state with a solid economy (which is all that matters to the higher powers) and where no one is truly free.
The people are united under it with propaganda that tells them they should all work towards the betterment of the nation and only consider themselves tools for this purpose.
Considering doing an rp (my first) on how the nation got this way, I'm developing a story in my own mind but whether I will ever run with it *shrugs*.
It would be more for show and to test out my writing ability if I did it rather than for any form of progression in the game. At the moment its an imperialistic/WWI style war of unification between multiple states that used to make up the area the nation currently holds with, of course the consumerist super state winning out in the end.
The nation itself though doesn't reflect any of my political values, is in fact quite the opposite, but I thought it would be fun to be a grand over fiend XD

We started out as a dictatoriship but in the tiem around the first regional war, there was a revolt and the people took over, starting a democracy. This led to a part of our country being lost to separists... We have evolved since into a socialist democracy.

The American Democracy of I V Stalin is a massive, safe nation, renowned for its punitive income tax rates. Its hard-nosed, cynical population of 1.326 billion are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The average income tax rate is 100%. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry.
All alcohol is banned, military service is compulsory, the nation is currently revamping its entire education system, and the upper class have been throwing riots after hunting was recently banned. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. I V Stalin's national animal is the llama, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the foliage.

Teutonnia

The People's Republic of Teutonnia is a very large, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, cynical population of 82 million are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 30%, but much higher for the wealthy. A robust private sector is led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Uranium Mining industries.
Citizens must pay to enjoy Teutonnia's pristine beaches, the government spends millions of teutonnian dollars every year prosecuting spammers, scenic mountain valleys are flooded with water as damming projects get underway, and citizens are allowed to rise or fall based on their own merits. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Teutonnia's national animal is the chicken, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the teutonnian dollar.
Teutonnia is ranked 2nd in the region and 36,620th in the world for Best Weather.

Hello!
I have created a nation called the People's Republic of Teutonnia. The nation is a Dictatorship and I am trying to have a strong government who look after the people and offer a balance between Communism and Capitalism. I have just fixed the environment and turned a country from an inhospitable landscape to an enviromentally stunning nation.
Im builiding the nation up and am waiting for the right issues to change the economy.
The citizens are happy and live in a crime-free state. Citizens can rise and fall based on their own merits and Teutonnia is therefore a classless society where people are not judged on thier class but rather on thier ability.
Im pleased with my nation so far and it will develop and become the superior nation of the region soon.

The Empire of L-rouge is a massive, economically powerful nation, renowned for its devotion to social welfare. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 1.011 billion are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defence, and Public Transport. The average income tax rate is 100%. Private enterprise is illegal, but for those in the know there is a slick and highly efficient black market in Arms Manufacturing.
A government program is underway to revitalize L-rouge's beaches, scenic mountain valleys are flooded with water as damming projects get underway, streakers swamp all public events in order to bare it all, and all writing must pass a censorship board before being allowed on the shelves. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. L-rouge's national animal is the Sloth, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the Imperial Mark.

Well...I have the crazy dream of someday being an author (please don't all laugh at once. Continual laughter is so much more soothing) and I'm basing my nation on one of the nations in my fictional world. I picked my Empire to play with first because having one man rule over everything was more fun than a more democratic society. I don't think I'd try to rule an actual country this way though. I'd hate to live in it.

There is no government in the normal sense the word; however, a small group of community-minded individuals devotes most of its attentions to Law & Order, with areas such as Social Welfare and Religion & Spirituality receiving almost no funds by comparison. Income tax is unheard of. A large private sector is dominated by the Woodchip Exports industry.
OK. I am in Libertarian, so the first bit makes sense. But why the Woodchip Exports Industry?

The Constitutional Monarchy of Harringtonia is a very large, economically powerful nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape. Its hard-nosed, hard-working population of 95 million are either ruled by a small, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.
The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Religion & Spirituality, Defence, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 12%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Soda Sales, Retail, and Uranium Mining industries.
Abortion is only legal in unusual circumstances, elevator music has been replaced by thrash metal played at maximum volume, strict term limits have been applied to all elected offices, and military service is compulsory. Crime is a problem. Harringtonia's national animal is the huihninma, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the donald.
Harringtonia is ranked 63rd in the region and 85,840th in the world for Best Weather.
Trying to keep it somewhat real, but some of those issues choices have unintended consequences (vis 'thrash metal music' above). :headbang:

i love my nation. it practically does share my values (exept for the 100% income tax thing). Education is me #1 priority, my population is described as 'compassionate' and 'tend to view other, more capitalist countries, as immoral and corrupt'. i have a massive government but v little wastage and high efficiency. my economy is 'all-consuming' and i have 1.9 billion ppl :)

The Really Really High People of Pure Metal is a massive, economically powerful nation, notable for its complete lack of prisons. Its compassionate population of 1.907 billion are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it concentrates mainly on Education, although the Environment and Social Welfare are secondary priorities. The average income tax rate is 100%. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising fourteen-year-old boys selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.
Every product goes through extensive safety-testing by the government, libraries are now installed with jacuzzis and mini-bars, the sound of wooden legs echo throughout Pure Metal after the recent introduction of the Foot Tax (WTF? I don't remeber that!), and a survey of the nation’s rivers and children has shown that pesticide levels are at an all-time regional high. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pure Metal's national animal is the Pothead, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the Great Gold Spliff.
Pure Metal is ranked 28th in the region and 119,407th in the world for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector.

Anyway, my nation is run fairly seriously. It's very centrist, pro-buisness and income tax is unheard of!
Has anyone tries Dopemine? My doctor prescribed me Wellbutrin and I'm wondering if it will actually help me stay awake.
