Hello everybody,

First off all, please accept my apologies for the poor english...
It is not my language, so you can count on a large amount of mistakes...

I'm just getting started, and have the following doubts:

1. All the information about my nation is the one that is available on the main menu, or can I get other kind of information, such as the decisions I took and how those choices afected the nature of my country?

2. Is there any other rank than the daily rank issued by the UN?

Kind regards
Baldaia

There should be some place where you can see your nations GDP but I don't where.

No, only the UN's ranking of the day. I think Nationstates should give you more details about your nation. Like what is exactly happening with your taxincome, how it is divided, what rights your citizens have, etc.

Hello everybody,

Hello. :) Welcome to NS!

1. All the information about my nation is the one that is available on the main menu, or can I get other kind of information, such as the decisions I took and how those choices afected the nature of my country?

The information on your main nation page is really the only thing you can get, without making other stuff up yourself. If you start RP'ing in either the Nationstates forum or the International Incidents forum, it's recommended that you create a factbook, to help others learn about you. Here's a good example: The Island of Rose's Factbook (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?p=8013743#post8013743)

If you want to keep track of all the issues that you answer, and how you answered them, your main page will keep track of the latest 4 issues that you've answered, however, after that, you won't be able to tell. I suggest, that if you want to remember how you answered, to copy and paste it into Word or whatever other processor you use.

2. Is there any other rank than the daily rank issued by the UN?

As for the daily ranks that the UN comes out with, there are plenty of them. I couldn't tell you the exact number of how many there are, but there's almost always a new ranking every day.

Any of these links can help you find your GDP. GDP stands for Gross Domestic Product. Gross Domestic Product is the market value of goods and services produced by labor and property in your nation, regardless of nationality.

or if you don't tax your citizens, how you pay for your programs... (must be a lot of private donation in my country)

Here's an example of what the 3rd Geek Calculator does for you. This is for my nation, btw.

Government Budget Percentage of GDP
Administration: $5,378,112,866,599.20 6%
Social Welfare: $9,859,873,588,765.20 11%
Healthcare: $1,792,704,288,866.40 2%
Education: $12,548,930,022,064.80 14%
Religion & Spirituality:$8,963,521,444,332.00 10%
Defence: $12,548,930,022,064.80 14%
Law & Order: $7,170,817,155,465.60 8%
Commerce: $14,341,634,310,931.20 16%
Public Transport: $2,689,056,433,299.60 3%
The Environment: $9,859,873,588,765.20 11%
Social Equality: $2,689,056,433,299.60 3%

It figures out how much you spend on each specific sector of your nation.

Income Tax Rate: 100%
It also says how much each citizen pays in taxes, but that's also on your main nation page.

Here's your third geek information.

For some of the spending on specific sectors, such as Administration, Healthcare, Religion, and Social Welfare, you've simply not received any issues having to do with those yet, or you just haven't answered them. That will change in time.

Baldaia: I tried to check your information under the third geek calculator, however, if your region has too many nations (I'm assuming you're still in one of the Pacifics), then the calculator won't be able to calculate your statistics. If you were to move to a much smaller region, then it'll be able to figure it out for ya. You can always try the other calcs too.

Thanks Euroslavia! I just checked my nation's GDP...that's rather frightening.
