Well, I'm a n00b so I don't know if this is impressive or not. In any case, my nation has reconciled social progressiveness and (satanic) social welfare.

Of note: "The United Socialist States of Berussland is a very large, socially progressive nation, notable for its complete absence of social welfare."

That's NationStates. Everybody have had this at one point. It's nothing to worry about, merely a bit silly.

My nations description is saying contradictory things!
The nation description is broken down into primarily 3 paragraphs. Your first paragraph contains some information about your population, a key feature of your government (these are usually very hard to lose once you get them), and a description based entirely on your UN type (which can cause a lot of problems). The second paragraph starts off describing your government with some adjectives (similar to the population paragraph) and lists your priorities and major industries, as well as tax rate. The third paragraph contains some strings directly based on your last four issue choices and some info about your national animal and curency.
The problem is that all of these adjectives and descriptions are based on different things. So, for example, a popular complaint used to be that a nation that was listed as an Anarchy had no government in the first paragraph, but an "omni-present" government in the second. This was because the player had met the requirements to become an anarchy (none of which have to do with government size), but had done so through massive government intervention.
The solution? Well, there really isn't one. You can take whichever of the contradictory descriptors you want to be the "correct" description of your nation, but the game would practically have to be re-written from the ground up to get these contradictions out, and it won't be happening.
