The Theocracy of The United Good
"Try it ... you'll like it !"

UN Category: Left-wing Utopia
Civil Rights: World Benchmark Economy: Struggling Political Freedoms: Superb

Location: Apolyton
The Theocracy of The United Good is a tiny, socially progressive nation, renowned for its punitive income tax rates. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 5 million are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whoever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, liberal, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Social Welfare, Religion & Spirituality, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 61%, 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 Furniture Restoration.

Crime is relatively low. The United Good's national animal is the oyster, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush and wet forests, and its currency is the ninge.

Most Holy Republic of Eredron

Quote:
UN Category: New York Times Democracy

Civil Rights: Good
Economy: Good
Political Freedoms: Superb


The Holy Republic of Eredron is a small, devout nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, intelligent population of 14 million enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defence, and Education. The average income tax rate is 21%, but much higher for the wealthy. A healthy private sector is led by the Automobile Manufacturing, Retail, and Arms Manufacturing industries.

College students make ends meet by selling their kidneys, surveillance cameras are banned, the death penalty has been reintroduced, and Eredron's children are widely acknowledged as the most foul-mouthed in the region. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is relatively low, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eredron's national animal is the Phoenix, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the Mark.

Eredron is ranked 2nd in the region and 25,407th in the world for Largest Insurance Industry.

The Empire of Baskinia
"Home of the Awesome!"

UN Category: Capitalist Paradise
Civil Rights: Good Economy: Thriving Political Freedoms: Excellent

Location: Apolyton
The Empire of Baskinia is a tiny, economically powerful nation, remarkable for its complete absence of social welfare. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 6 million are either ruled by a small, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The tiny government is mainly concerned with Law & Order, although Commerce and Education are secondary priorities. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4%. A large private sector is led by the Book Publishing industry, followed by Furniture Restoration and Cheese Exports.

Voting is voluntary. Crime is a problem. Baskinia's national animal is the turtle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the geld.

The Disputed Territories of Auldoninna is a very large, economically powerful nation, notable for its complete lack of prisons. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 56 million are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The enormous government concentrates mainly on Defence, although Law & Order and Commerce are secondary priorities. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 22%. A healthy private sector is led by the Book Publishing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Woodchip Exports industries.

Naturists are jailed regularly for indecent exposure, the government is avowedly atheist, teachers regularly paddle unruly students, and the government has cut its subsidies for all special interest groups. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is relatively low, thanks to a well-funded police force. Auldoninna's national animal is the gerbil, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the banana.

Auldoninna is ranked 57th in the region and 34,322nd in the world for Largest Insurance Industry

The Egalitarian Technocracy of Azan




"More schools, more Jet fighters, more Big screen TVs."

UN Category: Inoffensive Centrist Democracy
Civil Rights: Excellent
Economy: Strong
Political Freedoms: Excellent

Location: Apolyton

The Egalitarian Technocracy of Azan is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 700 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.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Defence, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 38%. Private enterprise is illegal, but for those in the know there is a slick and highly efficient black market in Information Technology.

Euthanasia is legal, citizens must pay to enjoy Azan's pristine beaches, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, and the government extracts trade concessions from poor nations in exchange for humanitarian aid. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is relatively low, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Azan's national animal is the oran-gutan, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the The Azani Pound.

The Democratic Republic of Trinis
"Liberty, Equality, Prosperity"

UN Category: Democratic Socialists
Civil Rights: Very Good Economy: Developing Political Freedoms: Excellent

Location: NationStates

The Democratic Republic of Trinis is a small, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its burgeoning eagle population. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 7 million are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Healthcare, and Social Welfare. The average income tax rate is 33%, but much higher for the wealthy. A very small private sector is dominated by the Cheese Exports industry.

Voting is voluntary, meat-eating is frowned upon, and the government awards prizes to television shows featuring stereotype-breaking minority roles. Crime is relatively low, thanks to a well-funded police force. Trinis's national animal is the eagle, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Trinisian dollar.

Trinis is ranked 396th in the region and 72,312th in the world for Largest Retail Sector.

The Federation of Big Noise

"I can see the stars!!!"

UN Category: Capitalist Paradise

Civil Rights: Below Average Economy: Powerhouse Political Freedoms: Some

The Federation of Big Noise is a tiny, economically powerful nation, remarkable for its complete lack of prisons. Its hard-working, cynical population of 5 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 Commerce, Defence, and Social Welfare. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Retail, Book Publishing, and Pizza Delivery industries.

Crime is a problem, probably because of the country's utter lack of prisons. Big Noise's national animal is the heffalump, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the baikanur.

The Free Land of Labmonkeys

"Total Freedom, except the Freedom to Exploit"
UN Category: Iron Fist Socialists
Civil Rights: Superb Economy: Struggling Political Freedoms: Outlawed


Free Land of Labmonkeys is a small, safe nation, renowned for its absence of drug laws. Its compassionate, cynical population of 8 million are ruled with an iron fist by the socialist government, which grants its people the freedom to do whatever they like so long as it doesn't involve getting richer than anybody else or challenging the government.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, liberal, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Religion & Spirituality, Public Transport, and Social Welfare. The average income tax rate is 66%, 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 Trout Farming.

Education and welfare spending are on the rise, the government awards prizes to television shows featuring stereotype-breaking minority roles, cars are banned, and it is a crime to offend someone's religious beliefs. Crime is well under control. Labmonkeys's national animal is the liberated lab rat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the gdollar.

Labmonkeys is ranked 77th in the region and 71,144th in the world for Largest Mining Sector.
The name is silly but I like how the nation is turning out, at first I was disheartened by the plummiting crimerate because I always took a stance against more police/prisons. However then I realised it's because everything has either been banned (no cars = no traffic violations) or made legal (drugs) and tolerance is enforced by the goverment. There is simply very little scope for crime in my nation

The Dominion of Neon Canada
"Free speech carries with it some freedom to listen."

UN Category: Moralistic Democracy
Civil Rights: Few Economy: Strong Political Freedoms: Very Good

Location: Apolyton
The Dominion of Neon Canada is a tiny, safe nation, notable for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 5 million are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Religion & Spirituality, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 28%. A tiny private sector is led by the Trout Farming industry, followed by Soda Sales and Arms Manufacturing.

Crime -- especially youth-related -- is relatively low, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Neon Canada's national animal is the wolf and its currency is the dollar.

Announcing the creation of a new nation!

The Democratic Republic of Fanchiland
"If less is more, think how much more more is!"

UN Category: Democratic Socialists
Civil Rights: Excellent
Economy: Fragile
Political Freedoms: Excellent

The Democratic Republic of Fanchiland is a tiny, safe nation, remarkable for its devotion to social welfare. Its hard-nosed, intelligent population of 5 million are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The government -- a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass -- juggles the competing demands of Social Welfare, Healthcare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 44%, but much higher for the wealthy. A very small private sector is dominated by the Retail industry.

Crime is well under control. Fanchiland's national animal is the poodle, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the credit.

The Fanchiland President, AdmiralACF, has recently decided against making voting compulsory.

The Most Serene Republic of Twilemen
"Platypuses say moo"

UN Category: Democratic Socialists
Civil Rights: Average Economy: Weak Political Freedoms: Average

Location: Apolyton

The Most Serene Republic of Twilemen is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its punitive income tax rates. Its compassionate population of 422 million are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it concentrates mainly on Education, although Law & Order and the Environment are secondary priorities. The average income tax rate is 51%, and even higher for the wealthy. A healthy private sector is led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, followed by Book Publishing and Uranium Mining.

Anti-government web sites are springing up, the government is making attempts at curtailing the flood of spam emails with little progress, voting is voluntary, and televangelists flaunt their expensive cars when they attend charity events. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Twilemen's national animal is the platypus, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the twil.

Twilemen is ranked 54th in the region and 50,328th in the world for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry.

Flinxland joins the Apolyton Region
The Commonwealth of Flinxland
"For The Greater Good"

UN Category: Liberal Democratic Socialists
Civil Rights: Good Economy: Developing Political Freedoms: Excellent

Location: Apolyton
The Commonwealth of Flinxland is a tiny, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its complete lack of prisons. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 5 million love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large government 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 29%, but much higher for the wealthy. A nonexistent private sector is dominated by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry.

Crime is relatively low. Flinxland's national animal is the Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Flinxland Credit.


I started today... no idea what I am doing.

We may have to enter into complex bilateral trade negotiations first. Jonchastan has no objection to a shared currency with other progressive nations. However, we do not wish to endanger our citizen's ability to spend like Santa and save like Scrooge.

The Dictatorship of Frankychanland
"Frankychan Knows What's Best"

UN Category: Corrupt Dictatorship

Civil Rights: Below Average
Economy: Fair
Political Freedoms: Outlawed

Location: Apolyton
The Dictatorship of Frankychanland is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its punitive income tax rates. Its compassionate, cynical population of 202 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.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and the Environment. The average income tax rate is 100%. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising fourteen-year-old boys selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.

All guns must be registered, every product goes through extensive safety-testing by the government, guns are banned, and major cities are suffering under water rationing. Crime is relatively low. Frankychanland's national animal is the humuhumunukunukuapuaa, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the left big toe.

My country is not interested in dealing with any other nation except those run by fellow dictators.

The common man needs to be told what to do in order for society to remain stable.

The United Good and Grant Park are mine, as is The Commune of the Tobans in Canada region.

The United Good is played as a very left leaning pagan theocracy. Grant Park the issues are decided by throwing dice - so far its right wing.

The Auldonina Fascist League is a group of islans in the Far north west of the region which has joined under the flag of Auldonina.

The small island of Auldonina has progressivley over the centuries expanded and integrated the surounding islands and now has a population of over 1 billion.

The people love their leader and follow fully his great economic plan of allowing business leaders run the country.

All people are employed except for a handful of local indigenous rebels on the conquered islands. These people are regarded as second class as they refuse to integrate.

Auldonina supports all other similar governments that use Fascism as their form of government . We realsie this flys in the face of many democratic coutnries but we maintian all nations are free to form their own form of governments.
