this is not right why is my nations bio is totally not what i was trying to potray -
The Holy Empire of XITTIKA is a large, devout nation, remarkable for its burgeoning xikran population. Its hard-nosed, cynical population of 26 million are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Religion & Spirituality, Law & Order, and Defence. The average income tax rate is 37%, but much higher for the wealthy. A very small private sector is dominated by the Information Technology industry.

Elections have been outlawed, military spending is on the increase, tourists from around the world come to visit the country's famous rainforests, and scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes. Crime is relatively low, thanks to a well-funded police force. XITTIKA's national animal is the xikran, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the xix.

Don't worry; it's the game programming. Your nation's description, including its political category, is established by the questions you anwered setting it up, and then altered by the decisions you make on issues. But it's automatic -- eg, any nation that answers a particular issue a certain way gets a comment about 14-year-old boys running lemonade stands and the Government looking at stamping it out. It's an IF x, THEN y thing. We all live with it.

If you want to let other people know what your nation is really like, then --


Begin a roleplay (RP) in which nations are invited to send delegates to your nation on a fact-finding tour, or some such device that allows you to write lots of description;

Roleplay in other people's threads in Nation States or International Incidents forums and gradually build up a picture of it;

Discuss proposals in the United Nations forum and let your decisions and arguments make clear what your nation's like;

Use your region's off-site forum, if it has one, to do an "Introduction to XITTIKA" ; or (and I've saved the best to the last ... )

Do a nation page on NS Wiki (http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Main_Page) and put a link to it in your signature.


As you're a Holy Empire, you might be particularly interested in this post (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=8501356&postcount=19), in which Euroslavia gives some good advice on RPing religions. That whole thread is gold.

Have fun.
