http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/ground/images/bdustp1.jpg
...as a male, you are confused that 'tampions' are part of feminine hygene.
...the human race is classified as Homo Sapien, you think your race is Homo Sinoian.
...you think the reason why they named it Hurricane Ivan is because it came and swept away everything in the Carribean, just like the Reds and their trophy brigades (known to you as 'Ivans') in WWII Europe.
...your telephone conversations are short, as you follow military radio procedures.
...as a soldier, you play 'strip poker' with your comrades. (To see who's first to shed all their webbing and equipment and get down to their BDUs).

you might just be a carlemnarian if
you get insecure in cities if you can't see a monorail or
trolly track from where you are
your household pet is some small wild creature that you
found sneaking in to look for something to eat or get out
of the weather
all your neighbors pets are just as exotic as your own
you've never seen pavement wider then someplace for two
people to walk
your garden tractor is programed by your thoughts
it can use its hydraulic arms to which impliments are
attatched otherwise to climb over obsticals
your house has bedroom/den combinations and a kitchen/dining area
but the garden is the closest thing you have to a living room
your idea of a party is people of common interests getting togather to enjoy and engauge in them
your idea of a family is people with common interests shairing a house and each other's bedrooms
not all of them are of the same species
work means getting on your village or neighborhood's localnet and seeing who needs what done that you know how
to do and going there and doing it or going down to your
local craftufacturing center or your own shopspace if you
have one and making three of something, one for yourself,
one for someone you know, and one to donate to the mathom house
there is always something to eat and someplace to stay without having to know anybody
more then half the people you know have lived completely by thimselves as long as you've known them
can't immagine why anyone would want to own a car or live in a city but live less then a half mile from a transit stop
if you want to go somewhere you walk half a mile through forrests and gardens and get on a very small train of some kind
if you're going further then the nearest village you ride the little train to where you can get on a bigger one
you've never heard of anyone killing anyone but know how to defend yourself with a sonic screwdriver if you ever have to
if you live more then a half mile from some kind of little train you ride your robotic garden tractor to get there
you've never seen a form of communication that you couldn't interact with and can't immagine why anyone would want one
you've been elected to some sort of council without ever campaigning or getting involved in politics
your walls don't always have cealings and your roofs don't always have walls
you think the most important aspect of a constructed space is the part of it that transitions between inside and outside
don't associate nudity with sex and think nothing of seeing people wearing whatever and however much or little they
feel comfortable in any place or circumstance, whether on
the train, in an office building or at a public meeting
dont' own anything you don't consider either a tool or a means of creative expression and can't immagine why anyone
would want to
determine a being's degree of sentience by its degree of creativity, reguardless of species, including your own
reguard a landscape as incomplete without some evidence of tecnology
reguard tecnology as incomplete without some evidence of wild nature
reguard the members of other species as neither more nor less dangerous then members of your own
get nervious when everything is too familiar
feel perfectly at home where everything is totaly strainge

You know you're a member of the 13 Clans of High Orcs when:
--You fluently speak half a dozen langauges, and can read four different alphabets, but people still think you're stupid when they first see you.
--You find that a ponytail isn't at all a threat to masculinity, and orange is a great color for hair.
--When a tree falls down in the woods and no one's around, you try not to get in the way of the Druids when they find out.
--Cooking your food is optional. Killing it is mandatory.
--Though everyone around you is firing off guns, you still believe that a sword is a better instrument of death, no matter how many bullet wounds you have on your chest.
--You know that a cloudy day means some bad news is about to come your way.
--You find yourself mixing up the bits of Orcish you've learned with Gobbley, and making a dialect almost incomprehensible to others.
--You think Elves are the ugliest creatures, next to the Old Ones, due to their twisted souls, lust for manipulation, and front of false purity, but maybe that's just the centuries of slavery making you biased.
--Brushing your teeth costs you a fortune in broken toothbrushes, and flossing is impossible.
--You believe that the Trolls from Angband, while possessing intelligence barely over an animal level, would make excellant mounts.
--Every time you bite your tongue, you need it sewn back on
--Arm Wrestling is a Mating Ritual (but throwing the fight isn't)
--When listening to music, you wonder why stringed instruments are needed at all. After all, there's nothing that percussion can't cover.
--When visiting other nations, you are astounded that they seem to be in a shortage of parchment due to all their citizens bartering with paper for goods.
--You don't know what Socialism is, but Karl Marx would most likely be a friend of your society.
--The Biggest decision of the day is whether to take your Battle-Axe or your Claymore when heading to work.

when kids are not reprimanded for insulting each other's mothers, but are punished for conservative comments
When you know every christian, jew, and muslim in your city. They are a nice family of four.

- Speak several languages but feign ignorance when a police officer speaks to you
- You breathe deeply on a Los Angeles freeway and comment on how fresh and clean the air is without any sarcasm
- Have shot yourself in the leg at least once because the trigger on your dueling pistol is tight enough to be fired by a strong breeze
- Have at least two duels in your PDA date book
- You live in a megalopolis
- Your considered dumb if you don’t have at least five bachelor degrees
- You complain vehemently because the government won’t let you buy collapsing rounds for your assault rifle
- You have a tan on your genitals from passing out in the park naked during your afternoon ‘trip’
- The police merely inquired if you were all right when you woke up
- You argue over whose barcode should be 000 000 666
- You settle the argument with a duel

OOC: Given all the comments about swords, weapons, and guns in general, I would have to say that - rather than being distinctive stereotypes about a nation - it's simply common in NationStates as a whole.
You might be a Tahar Joblissan if you spent an Army hitch in the Construction department, like most of your classmates.
If you can walk into any eatery and do the following things at breakfast time, you're probably in Tahar Joblis:
-Deep fry yourself some nice hot seaweed bricks.
-Find at least a dozen people with doctoral or higher education without raising your voice or moving from your seat.
-Read the morning's news using a magnifying glass.
-Walk in without shoes or shirt and attract absolutely no attention for it.
-Find twelve different kinds of seaweeds used as breakfast cereals, but not one slice of bacon.
If you think "money" is an amusing way of making foreigners do strange things, you could be Tahar Joblissan. If you think that money and monetary system dynamics are the cause of the majority of the injustice, war, famine, and other problems plaguing the rest of the world, you may also be Tahar Joblissan.
If you never learned how to drive, but can derive the equations pertinent to any given form and permutation of vehicular motion - provided you have the appropriate materials information on hand - you could be Tahar Joblissan.
If the notion of a fixed capital city and administrative center seems strange to you, you might be Tahar Joblissan.
You might be a Tahar Joblissan if you learned about voting systems before you learned about monetary systems

You're a Mississippian if:

You can chew your weight in red man without breaking into a sweat.
Somebody can say to you, "You put your seed in my daughter's belly, I'd kill you if you weren't my brother!" To which you can reply, "But pa!" (the dad slept with his mother to get a son and a brother)
You can make a noose in under twenty seconds flat.
Instead of sleep-walking, you sleep your way to your cousin's bed.
Your gun-rack has a gun-rack.
Your response to "Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms" is "Sounds like a party to me!"
Your wife can't find a white sheet in the house because you took them all for the WKM robes.
Your response to a woman saying, "Why don't men take us seriously?" is "She's a witch, burn her!"
Your response to a black man shouting, "We shall overcome!" is "Overcome this!" while you unload your M-249 at them.
Your response to a black man shouting, "I am a man!" is "A dead man!" while you take out your pistol.
You wake up one morning and hear your nation is killing more peasants as "enemies of the state."
You look outside and see signs proclaiming, "All hail Czar Fabus."
You leave for church at 9 am and don't get back until after 3 pm, because it takes that long for God to hear your prayers.
Somebody says the word condom, and you just scratch your head and say, "You mean those rifle protection things the soldiers use to keep sand out their guns?" (Only people under 20 do this, because prior to the Fabus regime, everybody knew what condoms were)
You see a wooden cross and your first thought is to set it ablaze.

I quote in fifteen languages all the crimes of the Communists,
In conics I can floor peculiarities of others;
I can tell undoubted Coolains from the rest of the world,
I know the jubilant chorus from the Emperor of Austrophies!
Then I can sing a march of which I've heard the music's tune before,
And mine all the acts from that infernal nonsense Democracy.

When I can tell at sight a Traitor from a citizen,
When such affairs as enemy propaganda and lies I'm more wary at,
And when I know exactly what is meant by "democrat",
When I have learnt what progress has been made in modern national tracking,
When they know more of my location than a mother in a nursery--
In short, when I've a smattering of elemental axioms,

... of course, you'd run out of stamps long before your ran out of invitations. And you print the damn things.

-You don't really get the point of bathing suits
-When a foreigner tells you to get a hair cut, you simply look at them in confusion.
-Religions that equate the sun with God baffle you. Why would anyone worship something that's hardly ever there?
-When someone asks you where the glaciar is, you say "which one?" or just point in the direction of the nearest one.
-When you were in high school and your parents found out that you and your sweetheart were having sex, they merely asked how it was.

pleasant outdoor meal and watch the criminals get executed under the
guilotine.
.. dog keeping is encouraged, in fact in some parts of Terminalia, like the
deep south it is in fact, compulsory.
..the dogs are encouraged to be huge and bred for that purpose, indeed one
horse 'dish licker,' was disqualified as the winner of the Termdon City Cup in
2002, when it was found out afterwards to be in fact, a large greyhound.
..anyone found abusing a dog in Terminalia thats outside any disciplinary
measures, is sentenced to five years hard labour.
..cats are illegal in most of Terminalia, the North grudgingly condones them,
where an estimated 30% of the population owns one or two, (two being the
limit) but insists on them being kept indoors, any cat found outside is put
down, unless the owner can come up with the ten thousand $T fine within 6
hours notice.
Most cat owners in Northern Terminalia, people like you and me,
keep their precious cats in hugely caged areas within the family courtyard,
and play with them in there, but neverless, always keep a spare 10,000
around just in case.
.. big meals, and I mean big, are the norm.
Three times a day, no anorexia here allowed whatsoever.
Breakfast- porridge, followed by some eggs and bacon, a grilled tomato,
mushrooms and some toast smeared with vegemite, washed down with tea,
fruitjuice and coffee.
Lunch- pickles with cheese and ham on rye usually, fruit, salad, washed down
with a tea or coffee.
Dinner- usually a roast meal involving a beast of some sort,lamb, veal or
poultry covered in gravy, roast veges and bread.
Sometimes a seafood smorgasboard instead.
Washed down with ale, liquor and coffee, desert as well.
.. homosexuality is frowned apon across the nation as an unhealthy and silly
choice of lifestyle, gays of both sexes, no matter what their position in
society, are sent to special one year long redneck camps and seminars, to
be 'straightened' out.
If this fails they are expelled from the country, and face a market square
flogging of twenty lashes with the 'cat o nines ' and a possible guillotining
afterwards, if they are sighted within Terminalias boundarys again.
..festivals that last up to a week depending on what part of Terminalia your
in, for instance Eastern and Southern Termies celebrate Octoberfest for two
weeks of the month of October, while Eastern and Northern Termies have it
for only a week.
Central Termies, known for their seriousness, place little
significance on any holidays and give it its usual two day allotment.
..Northern Termies also celebrate a strange holiday, known as Cat Gra, this is
only celebrated in the Northern areas of Terminalia, where the cat owners
are allowed to bring their cat(s) outside of the house, under strict supervision
of course, for one day only.
This culminates at 6pm to 8pm, when the cats are paraded to a cacaphony
of clashing cymbals, horns and drums, down the main street of the town\city,
and hoisted up on jewelled platforms, six feet above the owners heads.
These festivals attracts huge crowds of people from all over the world, and
is a huge dollar maker for the economy, anyone at all found to be harrassing
the cats or their owners in any way, could depending on the seriousness of
the harrassment, face up to ten years hard labour.

Terminalia.

illegal.

not in any way synthetic.
.. all dancing is held out doors and surrounded by tables groaning under the
weight of roast animals, vegetables, fruit and seafood.
.. beer, the national drink is served in four litre aluminium tankards, and
bought around at these dances by buxom wenches, ahh... the invigorating
taste, of Termy ale or lager.
.. the national drink, beer, is a heady 16%, and fights between foriegners are
known to break out regularly at festivals, after they have barely finished only
one tankard.
One beer screamers they are called jokingly by Terminalians.
The average Terminalian however, is bought up on beer
from birth, and therefore made of much sterner stuff, and usually doesnt get
fist itchy until well after the 4th tankard.
.. you dont have to worry about your kids whining and screaming abuse at
you as smacking is encouraged, and if you cant smack them hard enough
some one else with your permission will do it for you.
.. you dont have to worry about a nagging wife, as any one found to be too
much on the ear, can be fitted by a sheriff with a tounge clamp, for
a two day period.
.. doorknocking, marketing a product in public, telecanvassing etc is illegal.
..a trip to the Zoo of Terminalia can only be experienced by air lifts equipped
with toilets and bar a safe twenty feet above the ground, as we believe all
zoos should reflect their natural habitats, therefore all animals are allowed
to live naturally in them and roam where ever they please within the ten
square mile area, surrounded of course by a deep river, then a thirty foot
concrete wall reinforced with galvanised steel, and plasticiser bonds twenty
feet thick.
.. you get too drunk in a pub and pass out(there are no clubs) you are
thrown into a do not disturb room to sleep it off.
..you dont have to worry about your kids getting addicted to drugs as any
one caught dealing drugs is tried, and if found guilty.. sssssssshonk!

are set aside for this purpose.
Venison Hill and Gazelle hell, are favourite spots for people wanting to shoot
some game, while for the more serious hunter, Terminalias safari parks offer
Lion, Tiger and of course Elephant.
Of course we love and cherish our wildlife, so only carefully selected full
grown male animals, or old females are allowed to be shot, anyone shooting
anything else faces five to ten years hard labour, or a huge fine.
A three day Safari, all lodging, food, beer, gun hire and ammo, and kill or
none, will cost 2000.
T a head, or 1500 for a four or more group discount.
Exciting wild animals from all over the world, are let loose within a carefully
guarded and watched perimeter.
Father and son days, or a boys weekend, are especially welcome here.
Anything you bring down, must be left where it lies, no tropheys or photos.
You can bring your own guns provided they pass our strict inspection laws.
.. kids only have to go to school from the age of eight to 16.
..universitys are run by Christian monstarys only, and are all situated near
high seaside cliffs.

beneficial to the community, doorknocking for them however, is illegal.

questions asked.

You are Randomean if:
You don't know what a gun is (unless you are in the Secret Service or the Armed Police)
You have never seen the Armed Police in action.
Everyone knows and uses the latest technology, but they traded it for two cows because the currency is basically useless.
The Country is run by a Government who usually delegates its decisions to the Queen, or at the least confers.
There is not enough room on the Island for the whole population, as building new houses is almost impossible, and the forest protected.
The forest intrudes into the cities, along with its population of dragons.
The Government takes a hard line on big issues and on trivial ones too.
The Government is torn between making life better for its citizens and protecting its environment.
Corporal businesses are depised, the Government makes sure any profits go back to the community.
Everyone has equal rights, which means sometimes no-one has any, or people who do not need them have them.
You receive one of the best education in the World, but do not realise that hating businesses is isolating the country.
Despite having a peaceful, intelligent community, you just are not happy.
Doctors, lawyers and other such careers are extremely popular, but each of them have their own or share a little farm, as growing your food for yourself is all the rage.
The Fire-service has the most funding, due to the 'burgeoning dragon population.'
The gaols stand empty as no-one even bothers to break the law, except for graphitti artists, although their punishment tends to involve more community service tasks, like cleaning out the sewers.
The social heirarchy is intelligence based, therefore many positions are taken by women, although the Prime Minister is traditionally male. It therefore appears to be a matriachal society.

...You call yourself Yurkan or Yurka interchangably.
...You've never seen a foreigner in person.
...You are not aware of any gender roles in society.
...You use a unisex bathroom.
...You can trace your lineage back to one of the noble houses.
...You know for a fact that Yurka is the center of the universe.
...You own dozens of pictures of the Royal Family... In various states of undress... Of your own gender... And you're heterosexual...
...None of the above seems all to strange to your friends and family.
...You have a microchip planted within your spine to keep track of you whenever in Yurka.
...You'll never leave Yurka.
...You consider your nation and people morally superior to all other nations on NS Earth.
...You consider Democracy a phase, along with Christianity and most other foreign ideas.
...Upon reaching the age of fourteen you undergo some form of physical augmentation, whether through a tattoo, skin bleaching, etc.
...You met your future soulmate while in the Youth Patrol, which is a child army.
...You've never been involved in any type of non-government authorised criminal behavior, but are sure that all foreigners have. Because they are morally inferior.
...You spent your vacation in Baccarat, gambling, smoking Opium, and wasting more money in a brothel than you've spent on food during the previous year.
...You've never been sad before, because the Yurkan Government has pills for that.
...The government has pills for anything, one for every emotion, even some you've never even experienced before.
...Whenever you leave the cities, you roll the windows up so as not to be assaulted by the pollution, though more likely you're going by train.
...You've actually been to a tree museum, and found it quite interesting.
...The only forest you've seen was in the city of Terra, and it was government controlled. You consider that a good thing, as the Government knows how to take care of it's people.
...In school you learned how to speak three languages, kill a man efficiently in hand to hand combat... And learned how to sew the dress you wore at the Prom. You have trouble beating men off of you with a stick, which is where your combat training comes in.
Fat Kirby

You know you're a Fat Kirby when...
You're a round pink blob.
Even you have trouble telling everyone apart.
You have no immediate definable gender.
You elected the very epitome of evil as your leader.
Your idea of a snack is a couple of pigs.
Despite your diet, you are extremely light, and can actually fly by inflating yourself.
Though extremely cute by most standards, you would eat an unattended child without a second thought.
Even you have no idea how your race manages to procreate.
You consider yourself a superior race, and use your legions of edible(at least for you) slaves and minions to assist you with your far-reaching plans to eventually enslave or devour everyone on the planet.
Did I mention you're cute?
Your favorite sport is competitive eating. Unfortunately, if a spectator is invited to such an event, there is very little chance of them ever making it out with their lives.
The world fears you. O_O
