Due to increasing need to be seen as a modern nation, and not a priah in the eyes of the international community, Goit has made several fundamental changes in the hope of increasing diplomatic links and investment ties in the global community.
1) Democracy has been introduced, giving citizens a right to vote, as long as they have been properly checked and verified, are a productive member of the community, and are bar-coded correctly.
2) The death penalty has been changed to only serious crimes. Theft will no longer carry the death penalty, and executions will no longer be public, nor will victims suffer needless torture for 2 weeks in advance and have their heads mounted on the trans-Goit railway.
3) Socks are no longer illegal.
4) All missles that were 'accidentally' pointing at non-aggressive neighbours have been put down to peacetime settings. Except those that are REALLY accidental.
5) Slavery has been abolished, except for the government condoned, willful participation scheme, in which girls are traded as currency. The tradition of females being Goits currency is long and proud, and most girls like it. As long as they are one of the higher denomination notes. The heffers that are only worth about 10 cents seem to get peeved off, but at least they are never lost through a hole in someones pockets.
6) The Goit government have requested WHAM! to do a concert. They were very big before we went into an isolationist stance, and hopefully they are still going strong. The Police, Ultravox and....if possible... Dexys midnight runners, are all very welcome.
