Igloria

Head of State: Puglover

Founded: I have no idea

Population: 357 Million people

Capital City: Jesusople, Paradiso

Major Languages: Spanish, English

Major Religons: Cathlioc = 30%, Prodestant Christianity = 40%, Athesim = 20%, Other = 10%

Currency: Sir De La Gardie

National Animal: Swan

Motto: "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you"

Anthem: For God We Will Stand

Government Type: Moralistic Democracy

Government Structure: A Senate who can veto bills made by the President. If the bill gets past the Senate, it must be voted upon by the public.

Major Political Parties: Socialists, Republicans

Major Exports: Oil and Uranium

Detailed Description: The United States of Igloria is a enormous, devout nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 357 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.

There is no government in the normal sense the word; however, a small group of community-minded individuals juggles the competing demands of Defence, Religion & Spirituality, and Social Welfare. Income tax is unheard of. 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.

It is a crime to offend someone's religious beliefs, tourists from around the world come to visit the country's famous rainforests, corporations donate huge sums of money to favored politicians, and all tarrifs have been abolished. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Igloria's national animal is the swan, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the Sir De La Gardie.

[Datajack Franit]

Wouldn't it be great if we had religion statistics in the game?

Other Government Notes:
Before the period of Anarchy that followed the attacks on Alecrast earlier this year, a Cipher/Sensate coalition held a 2/3 parlimentary majority, with the Guvnor/Dustmen coalition forming the opposition, and this is reflected in the current makeup of the Council. It is expected that when elections are held later this year to reform the parliment, the status-quo will be largely maintained, though the Dustmen are expected to make gains, especially over the minor parties such as the Xaositects. The home-grown Athar party from the new protectorate of Northern Sheepsta is also expected to make significant inroads, driven by the large population of the region.

Major Political Organisations:
Athar (Sponsored by the North Sheepsta Citizen's Council)
Ciphers (Sponsored by Atel and the Winix Corperation)
Dustmen (Sponsored by Nukes4U)
Guvnors (Sponsored by the P4psi Group)

[Andemagne]

this idea don't seem to catch fire.

[CapitanGarlic]

Too much thinking required, perhaps?

[Archaic]

So is this idea dead then? A pity. I was hoping we might eventually be able to get something along the lines of what Heartland did. *Sighs*

[GeneralTacticus]

So was I...

[Archaic]

Well, I suppose if no one else will do it, we'll have to....
