Nation Up For Auction!

That's right! I am selling another nation. This one is much larger and "Capitalist" than the other one! Here is it's information:


UN Category: Capitalist Paradise
Civil Rights: Below Average
Economy: Powerhouse
Political Freedoms: Some

Location: The East Pacific

The Dominion of Corperia is a huge, economically powerful nation, remarkable for its absence of drug laws. Its hard-nosed, hard-working population of 263 million are either ruled by a small, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The minute, pro-business government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Defence, Law & Order, and Commerce. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Gambling, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports industries.

Citizens are barcoded to keep track of their movements, voting is compulsory, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, and a National Academy regulates grammar and usage. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is relatively low, thanks to a well-funded police force. Corperia's national animal is the snowy owl, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the lexgh.


If you would like this nation, the bidding will start at 20 billion. Good luck, and happy bidding!

The bidding will end at 7:00 PM eastern time on Christmas day.

The people of Kenacho after raising huge funds through tax dollars have agreed to a bid to overcome all bids.

850 trillion dollars.
Camel Eaters
24-12-2004, 21:20
Both of those nations are super new. So I wouldn't count their bids. Wait AFRP we could probably buy them out once they go bankrupt. Or invade them.

Tralse & Mathews
Praetonia
24-12-2004, 21:22
850 Trillion? Utter crap.

Anyway, can someone tell me if The eternal-dragons is bidding with AFRP and Camel Eaters? If not then I offer to form a bidding team with him.

ignored for being godmodded.

AFRP and Camel Eaters: I think we should sit down and share the country. We arent going to get anywhere like this except drive the price way up for the eventual winner. So what do you say?
The eternal-dragons
24-12-2004, 22:05
I agree......Although we are winning the auction

I sincerely doubt that that amout of money exists, let alone for a nation of your size and economy.
Praetonia

Yeah that's just because we have the latest bid. They'll out bid us then we'll out bid them... pointless.

Well then Praetonia, what do you wish out of the nation?

(Bid: 15 T)
Praetonia
25-12-2004, 19:48
Land. It matters little what is in it, and you can take the resources. All we ask is that we get a reasonable amount of land with a seaward border.

Agreed. You want a small bit of land with a seaward border? Okay. That sounds good fourty miles that have been completely stripped of resources by A Few Rich People sound good? Also all people in the area will be removed by my forces for slave labor and the eternal-dragons can have one-eigth of the protected forest to do as they see fit. Is this a reasonable offer?

I find it hard to believe that the amount 1,000 trillion dollars even exists, let alone an amount 10 times that.

Ok, 1 trillion for some land in said nation (has to have a seaward border)

Also all people in the area will be removed by my forces for slave labor and the eternal-dragons can have one-eigth of the protected forest to do as they see fit. Is this a reasonable offer?
Leave one town. My troops dont like being in military bases all the time... also by "have the forest" what does this mean? If you mean they can chop down the trees then fine. If you mean they are his land, then no. And fourty miles? Is this squared or fourty miles along the coast :/

Hive person is ignored. Masspwnage you would have to talk to the four of us who are current winning this bidding for some space in the nation.
