Rule your own country!

OK, forget that lame-ass org mash link that I'm about to delete... this is awesome!
The basic premise is that you create your own country and have to make decisions that affect the people that you rule. You tell them your political ideals and then test them out to see how they are strong and where they are weak.

I created The Kingdom of Paisley Park razz
This is what my country is like at day one.



Location: The North Pacific
The Kingdom of Paisley Park is a tiny, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its devotion to social welfare. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 5 million enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level social equality free of the usual accompanying government corruption.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it devotes most of its attentions to Social Welfare, with areas such as Law & Order and Defence receiving almost no funds by comparison. The average income tax rate is 58%, and even higher for the wealthy. Private enterprise is illegal, but for those in the know there is a slick and highly efficient black market in Beef-Based Agriculture.

Crime is totally unknown. Paisley Park's national animal is the crying dove, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the sand dollars.

You have a telegram!

You have one outstanding issue.

lol somebody has created The Queendom of Wacko Jacko

I think I may declare war on them! evillol

stab stab stab stab :Stab: stab stab stab
Queendom of Wacko Jacko

Here's what they are like...

Location: The North Pacific

The Queendom of Wacko Jacko Nutso is a small, socially progressive nation, notable for its compulsory military service. Its hard-working, intelligent population of 18 million are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The minute, pro-business government, or what there is of one, is effectively ruled by the Department of Commerce, with areas such as Social Welfare and Healthcare receiving almost no funds by comparison. Income tax is unheard of. A robust private sector is led by the Automobile Manufacturing, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Information Technology industries.

The alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, euthanasia is legal, meat-eating is frowned upon, and the mining industry is making inroads into environmentally sensitive areas. Crime is pervasive. Wacko Jacko Nutso's national animal is the little boy, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the underoo.

I've been going here for a little over 2 months, and have two nations "The United Socialist States of Rhonda" and "The United Socialist States of Risa" as well as my own region called "Remus."

The United Socialist States of Risa
"A day without a vodka buzz is a day that never was."

UN Category: Father Knows Best State
Civil Rights: Some Economy: Powerhouse Political Freedoms: Outlawed

Location: Remus
The United Socialist States of Risa is a very large, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its complete absence of social welfare. Its compassionate, hard-working, cynical population of 169 million are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The enormous, corrupt government concentrates mainly on Defence, although Law & Order and Commerce are on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 31%. A robust private sector is dominated by the Automobile Manufacturing industry.

Punitive tariffs protect local industry, high-income earners pay a 100% tax rate, organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region, and guns are banned. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Risa's national animal is the ball python, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the ruble.

The United Socialist States of Rhonda
"A day without vodka is a day that never was."

UN Category: Corporate Police State
Civil Rights: Some Economy: Powerhouse Political Freedoms: Outlawed

Location: Remus
The United Socialist States of Rhonda is a enormous, economically powerful nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 233 million are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The medium-sized, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defence, Law & Order, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 10%. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Gambling industry.

Citizens are barcoded to keep track of their movements, nudity is frowned upon, guns are banned, and the government is avowedly atheist. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rhonda's national animal is the komodo dragon and its currency is the ruble.

Well, unforunately, you can't really go to war with other nations. The FAQ says that it can't be done, and if they ever do fix it, you'll have to pay extra.

The United States of Drawerz

The Republic of Drawerz is a tiny, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its complete absence of social welfare. Its hard-nosed, intelligent population of 5 million have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government devotes most of its attentions to Law & Order, with areas such as Social Welfare and Defence receiving almost no funds by comparison. The average income tax rate is 20%, but much higher for the wealthy. A substantial private sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, followed by Information Technology and Gambling.

Crime is a problem. Drawerz's national animal is the black cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the duckett.


oh yeah, a link....

bomb blast.
