You’re not fooling anyone you flower loving beatnik! :p
Nature’s first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf’s a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.

Thankfully that heinous rumor has been disproved. Your nation's actions speak for themself though, you bong jockey. :D

Finally, my Empire is becoming a place worthy of Me :D Although when Ty reads this, I may have to prepare for war :p


The Empire of Lord Stalker is a large, socially progressive nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 40 million live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The small, liberal, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Commerce, and Defence. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 2%. A robust private sector is led by the Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture industries.

Employers may fire workers without giving any reason, voting is voluntary, the death penalty has been reintroduced, and Animal Liberationists are regularly jailed. Crime is pervasive. Lord Stalker's national animal is the turkey, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the beer cap.


And yet, somehow, I have acheived World Benchmark in Civil Rights :confused:

The Sultanate of Froggle
"Its Not Easy Being Green"

UN Category: Liberal Democratic Socialists
Civil Rights: Good
Economy: Basket Case
Political Freedoms: World Benchmark

Location: SYM

The Sultanate of Froggle is a tiny, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its strong anti-business politics. 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.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it is mainly concerned with Social Welfare, although Healthcare and Education are secondary priorities. The average income tax rate is 63%, 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 Uranium Mining.

Crime is totally unknown. Froggle's national animal is the frog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the favour.

The Ever-Mutating Kayland

Image
The Rogue Nation of Kayland
"Quando Omni Flunkus Moritati"

UN Category: Inoffensive Centrist Democracy
Civil Rights: Some Economy: Good Political Freedoms: Few

Location: SYM
The Rogue Nation of Kayland is a large, devout nation, renowned for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, cynical population of 40 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 government -- a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass -- juggles the competing demands of Defence, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 34%, but much higher for the wealthy. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, followed by Beef-Based Agriculture and Pizza Delivery.

Punitive tariffs protect local industry, the tenet of free speech is held dear, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, and military spending is on the increase. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kayland's national animal is the frog, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the token.

I'm suprised you let it slip. You used to be quite the warmonger.

Heh, Kayland is now a Father Knows Best State.
