How could you? Evil non-compost heap, leaf-killing, industrially thriving nations!
Back at you, you tree-hugging hippy.
Oh, and it seems Kayland is a Psychotic Dictatorship now. 
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.

Come and see our Uranium mines and logged forests in the nation of Zeddicus! Radiation comes at no extra cost!

Now that's more like it!
P.S. Once again Kayland has switched governments. We are now a Tyranny by Majority.

Speaking of Kayland...
The Rogue Nation of Kayland
"Quando Omni Flunkus Moritati"
UN Category: Tyranny by Majority
Civil Rights: Some Economy: Reasonable Political Freedoms: Widely Abused
Location: SYM
The Rogue Nation of Kayland is a very large, safe nation, renowned for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, intelligent population of 67 million enjoy great social freedoms and frequent elections, where the majority of the populace regularly votes to increase its benefits at the expense of various hapless minorities.
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Defence, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 46%, but much higher for the wealthy. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Automobile Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Book Publishing industries.
The government is seen to favor Catholics, movies and computer games are strictly censored for violence, the government awards prizes to television shows featuring stereotype-breaking minority roles, and the death penalty has been reintroduced. 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.
Whoa, Political Freedoms are widely abused? What the hell does that mean? They were superb for a while.

Re: Speaking of Kayland...
I think if your political freedoms are too wonderful then the people start abusing them for their own ends...or something. I was more worried when mine changed from Corrupted to World Benchmark overnight...I think I made a bad decision.Originally posted by Kayless

An update
The Dominion of Tamerlane
"All hail, Tamerlane our saviour!"
UN Category: Corporate Police State
Civil Rights: Unheard Of
Economy: All-Consuming
Political Freedoms: Outlawed
The Dominion of Tamerlane is a very large, safe nation, renowned for its complete absence of social welfare. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 62 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 small, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defence, Commerce, and Law & Order. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Automobile Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Gambling industries.
Euthanasia is illegal, citizens are barcoded to keep track of their movements, a large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, and guns are banned. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Tamerlane's national animal is the Falcon, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the Tammy.
Abolished income tax for the third consecutive time

Damn, there's no way to win in this game.
I wish I could somehow direct my vast armies to conquer some of the other piddling nations in SYM, to distract Kayland's people from this abuse of political freedoms. Originally posted by Tamerlane

Must be a controversial issue if they keep bringing it up (actually since I have it set to give me 2 issues a day I’ve received numerous redundant issues as well).

So have I, I'll drop it off soon to one every two days. Novelty is fast wearing off, but I'm damn proud to have the all-consuming status next to my economy. Fear my economic power SYM!
!
I wonder why my economy is only average? Could it be because I dump most of our cash into the military?

UN Category: Left-wing Utopia (Changed from Scandinavian Liberal Paradise)
Civil Rights: Superb (Down from World Benchmark)
Economy: Imploded (Down!!!)
Political Freedoms: Superb (Up from average)
Location: SYM
The Rogue Nation of VoodooDaliania is a very large, devout nation, renowned for its complete lack of prisons. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 68 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 Education, Social Welfare, and the Environment. The average income tax rate is 57%, 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.
VoodooDaliania's children are widely acknowledged as the most foul-mouthed in the region, organ donation rates have hit a new low, the government awards prizes to television shows featuring stereotype-breaking minority roles, and a large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway. Crime is totally unknown. VoodooDaliania's national animal is the lemur, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Chill Pill.
