    The Republic of Gallonia
    "Justice is blind - but it can feel you up"

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

    Location: Apolyton

    The Republic of Gallonia is a tiny, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its compulsory military service. Its 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 Law & Order, Education, and Social Welfare. The average income tax rate is 41%, but much 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.

    Crime -- especially youth-related -- is relatively low, thanks to a well-funded police force. Gallonia's national animal is the cow, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the guell.

      The People's Republic of Devotion
      "No Books, No Liberty =No Questions!"

      Location: Apolyton
      The People's Republic of Devotion is a tiny, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its burgeoning two-headed squirrel population. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 5 million are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

      The large government is effectively ruled by the Department of Law & Order, with areas such as Religion & Spirituality and Defence receiving almost no funds by comparison. The average income tax rate is 30%, but much higher for the wealthy. A very small private sector is dominated by the Pizza Delivery industry.

      Crime is moderate, and the police force struggles against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Devotion's national animal is the two-headed squirrel, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the mango.

        OK then, let's give this game a try.

        The Holy Empire of Whogivesafcuk

        "We don't need no stinkin' motto!"

        UN Category: New York Times Democracy

        Civil Rights: Excellent
        Economy: Strong
        Political Freedoms: Superb

        Location: the South Pacific

        The Holy Empire of Whogivesafcuk is a tiny, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 5 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 small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Social Welfare, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 6%. A small but healthy private sector is led by the Woodchip Exports industry, followed by Basket Weaving and Retail.

        Crime is a problem, and the police force struggles against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Whogivesafcuk's national animal is the fcukpig and its currency is the fcukpound.

          The Republic of Chilean Capricornia
          "Fortis Atque Fidelis"

          UN Category: Right-wing Utopia
          Civil Rights: Few Economy: Powerhouse Political Freedoms: Excellent

          Location: the South Pacific
          The Republic of Chilean Capricornia is a tiny, economically powerful nation, renowned for its complete absence of social welfare. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 5 million are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.

          The minute, pro-business government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Commerce, and Religion & Spirituality. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales industries.

          Crime is a serious problem. Chilean Capricornia's national animal is the Blue Condor, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the Capricornian Peso.

            The People's Republic of Matzania

            "Vae victis!"

            UN Category: Democratic Socialists
            Civil Rights: Good
            Economy: Struggling
            Political Freedoms: Below Average

            The People's Republic of Matzania is a small, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its devotion to social welfare. Its compassionate population of 9 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 -- is mainly concerned with Social Welfare, although Education and Healthcare are on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 46%, but much higher for the wealthy. Private enterprise is illegal, but for those in the know there is a slick and highly efficient black market in Automobile Manufacturing.

            Bicyclists are banned from major roads and Matzania's children are widely acknowledged as the most foul-mouthed in the region. Crime is totally unknown. Matzania's national animal is the lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the hektar.

              The Apolytonian Republic of Ceroo
              "Chi trova un amico, trova un tesoro"

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

              Location: Apolyton

              The Apolytonian Republic of Ceroo is a massive, safe nation, notable for its punitive income tax rates. Its compassionate, hard-working, intelligent population of 2.703 billion 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 Social Equality, Education, and the Environment. The average income tax rate is 56%, and even higher for the wealthy. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Book Publishing industry.

              Citizens select which government department gets their income tax Ceroos each year, councils up and down the country wrangle over legal matters, Pinkerton agents are called in to forcibly break up white collar strikes, and high-income earners pay a 100% tax rate. Crime is totally unknown. Ceroo's national animal is the osprey, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Ceroo.

              Ceroo is ranked 13th in the region and 2,017th in the world for Happiest Citizens.

                  The Incorporated States of PrecTronics is a small, economically powerful nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, hard-working population of 10 million are either ruled by a small, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

                  There is no government in the normal sense the word; however, a small group of community-minded, pro-business individuals concentrates mainly on Law & Order, although Commerce and Defence are on the agenda. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Woodchip Exports, and Gambling industries.

                  All major public areas are watched by police surveillance cameras, Animal Liberationists are regularly jailed, voting is voluntary, and employers may fire workers without giving any reason. Crime is a serious problem. PrecTronics's national animal is the AIBO, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the Diode.

                  Note: It is our position that the UN has greatly exagerrated many of their claims.

                  Concerning the Animal Liberationists, they are not regularly jailed, but only when they threaten the rights of our citizens to eat or use animal products.

                  On the worker front, we felt the unionization of workers was preventing us from being able to compete globally. We firmly believe that we need our workers and they deserve to be strongly compensated, but not at the expense of our competiveness.

                      The Free Land of Silver Springs is a small, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its absence of drug laws. Its compassionate population of 8 million enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level social equality free of the usual accompanying government corruption.

                      The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Social Welfare, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 28%, but much higher for the wealthy. A substantial private sector is led by the Retail industry, followed by Book Publishing and Automobile Manufacturing.

                      Organ donation rates have hit a new low, the heron is a protected species, and the tenet of free speech is held dear. Crime is moderate, and the police force struggles against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Silver Springs's national animal is the heron, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the dollar.

                        The People's Republic of East Yorkshire is a large, safe nation, remarkable for its strong anti-business politics. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 23 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 government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Social Welfare, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 62%, 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 Book Publishing.


                        Euthanasia is legal, bears are considered a delicacy, meat-eating is frowned upon, and the nation is ravaged by daily union strikes. Crime is totally unknown. East Yorkshire's national animal is the killer panda, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the eukalele.

                          The Republic of Maradonia is a tiny, socially progressive nation, notable for its complete lack of prisons. 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, corrupt, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Social Welfare, Religion & Spirituality, and Defence. The average income tax rate is 55%, and even higher for the wealthy. 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.

                          Crime is moderate, probably because of the country's utter lack of prisons. Maradonia's national animal is the turtle, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the diego.

                              The Holy Empire of Sheepsta is a tiny, devout nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 5 million are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

                              The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government is mainly concerned with Law & Order, although Religion & Spirituality and Education are on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 18%. A robust private sector is led by the Trout Farming, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Book Publishing industries.

                              Crime -- especially youth-related -- is relatively low, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Sheepsta's national animal is the sheep and its currency is the fleece.
