Far-right-wing Nazi supporters plan to stage a rally in the city center tomorrow, giving voice to their violent, racist views.

The Debate
"Frankly, I'm appalled that the government can even consider allowing this travesty to go ahead," says prominent Jewish banker Jazz Dredd. "We can't let these animals broadcast their message of hate. Surely Tamerlane is too civilized for that."

This is the position your government is preparing to adopt.


"It's exactly because we're civilized that we must let the demonstration proceed," says free speech campaigner Prudence Thiesen. "We may not like what they have to say, but in this society, people have the right to argue whatever political view they want, no matter how hateful, selfish, or stupid it is."

Bah! Nazi scum, *Goes to find his secret police...*

His Stealthiness KidD01 thank your warm welcome Mi Lady Scayde

The militia groups of Tropicalis are armed and ready for any war on the horizon. I have already stated I am neutral towards Randomthugonia, so I am assuming that trouble from that side of the world will not be an issue.

I AM, however, ready to face any macaw-hurting hippies (as reported in telegram from Kayland) in bear form.

Also note, that in a gesture of peace and friendship, I have sent 100 mangos to the Empire of Stealth Hawks.

Evil....evil...evil! What did they ever do to you, you corrupt maniac?

And so it is noted: Corrupt and evil Randomthugonia is now an enemy of the nation of Tropicalis.

EDIT-New issue:

The Issue
The Police department is considering installing surveillance cameras in all major public areas, in an effort to crack down on crime.

The Debate
"This is a blatant invasion of the right to privacy!" says libertarian web site operator Calvin Love. "Now I can't even go out in public any more without being watched? And you know this is just the beginning. Today there are cameras in city streets. Tomorrow they're peering through your bedroom window."



"Hey, I've got news for you," says Police media liaison Sue-Ann McGuffin. "When you're out in public, PEOPLE CAN SEE YOU. These cameras will be extremely helpful in reducing the national crime rate. Frankly, I can't see what the fuss is about."



"This 'slippery slope' argument has got me thinking," says Police Minister Violet O'Bannon. "You know, it would be a lot easier to fight crime if we watched people all the time. Not with cameras, of course. That's clearly an invasion of privacy. But how about a national database of our citizens, coupled with compulsory ID cards and barcoding? It would stop crime dead in its tracks."

This is the position your government is preparing to adopt.
The Government Position
The government has indicated its intention to follow the recommendations of Option 3.

Zen Master CEO Chanak to CEO Scayde Moody:

"It is with great pleasure that The Free Land of Casio Tones receives your diplomatic overtures in the realm of trade. We are eager to establish good trade relations with your nation, and find your offer most reasonable. I regret to inform your CEOship that at this time, the police force of Biker Gangs has been disbanded, and returned to the ranks of the military. However...an efficient delivery system of commodities is in place that will doubtlessly meet with your satisfaction. Let us commence trade, then."

Zen Master CEO Chanak to High Chief Tybaltus: "Glad to see you oppose the rabid Dictator Thug and his band of droobs. Unbeknownst to his rabid Dictatorship, a Cure exists for his unfortunate condition, which The Free Land of Casio Tones has thoroughly researched, tested, and verified as to it's effectiveness. It's called a thorough butt-kicking, and we're glad to assist you in any way that we can. Welcome aboard."

Zen Master CEO Chanak: "Oh...all this time, and I neglected to address one little formality. The Free Land of Casio Tones declares war on Randomthugonia. There."

An update...Im now capitalist....

The Empire of Tropicalis
"Nature conservation today will grant life tomorrow"

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

Location: SYM

The Empire of Tropicalis is a small, economically powerful nation, notable for its strong anti-business politics. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 7 million are either ruled by a small, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Religion & Spirituality, and Commerce. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 23%. Private enterprise is illegal, but for those in the know there is a slick and highly efficient black market in Soda Sales.

College students make ends meet by selling their kidneys, military funding has been stripped back, the government is seen to favor Catholics, and employers may fire workers without giving any reason. Crime is a serious problem. Tropicalis's national animal is the macaw, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the parrotali.

My economy now is apparently a "Basket Case".

Any donations would be appreciated.

Enter Kender land...

...wished I could change it to Kendermore instead...


The Free Land of Maharlika is a tiny, socially progressive nation, renowned for its burgeoning chipmunk population. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 6 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.

The government -- a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, liberal morass -- juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Social Welfare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 35%, but much higher for the wealthy. A small private sector is dominated by the Automobile Manufacturing industry.

Punitive tariffs protect local industry. Crime is moderate, and the police force struggles against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Maharlika's national animal is the chipmunk, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the kender gold.

*checks pouches*

How did these cheese get into my pouches?

*donates them to Voodoo*

I'm proud to report that the Dominion Of Tamerlane has passed a new legislation which stipulates that it is illegal to make racist remarks in public. Sure civil rights have been stripped back even more, but to run a Corporate Police State you have to do things properly.

EDIT-

In other news

In a bid to provide a new revenue stream for Tamerlane's Beef-Based Agriculture industry, it has been suggested that Falcons could be added to the menu.

The Debate
"The fact is, the Falcon population is out of control," says Beef-Based Agriculture spokesperson Pip Washington. "We have to do something about them anyway, so why not market them as tasty snacks? We could have Falcon kebabs, Falcon pies, Falcon-on-a-sticks--the possibilities are endless! Let's not pass up this golden opportunity to provide a feast, if you will, for our economy."

This is the position your government is preparing to adopt.


"I agree that something needs to be done about Falcon over-population," says random passer-by Freddy Broadside, "but eating them? That's kind of gross. Let's just shoot the ones we have to and shovel their bodies into ditches like normal."

"I am shocked and appalled!" declared SPCA President Thomas O'Bannon. "If anyone needs to be culled, it's us humans. The Falcons were here first, remember? We need to take this as a sign to get our industry--agriculture in particular--to back off. The Falcon is part of what makes Tamerlane a great nation!"

The Club Hedonis Corp. Inc. Is considering building beach resort in a tropical location. The design is single story bungalos atop stilts to be placed in a tropical lagoon setting. The intentions are for a world class facility. There will be a need of course for employees, aprox 800, land and beachfront, aprox 700 acres, utilities, and permits. The company will pledge in ernest to hire all local staff, with the exception of general manager, which will be chosen based strictly on qualifications. There is a need however to discuss some form of tax incentive for sucha venture.
We eagerly await your reply.
Sincerely,
Scayde Moody, CEO of Bloodonya

The peaceful people of Gwaltopia think that your development plans are excellent! They especially like the idea of the stilted bungalows! This form of construction will minimize impacts to our Natural and Cultural Resources, reducing the need for mitigation. You have our approval.

I should note that there is a small contingent of Gwaltopians who think that the stilted bungalows should be mechanical and capable of walking around. They think this would be really cool. If you could accommodate them, the GHG would be much pleased.

I have created three totally different countries and put them together in a special region for experiment. I thought of moving them to the SYM, but decided not to. You don't want everyone to create multi countries start flooding the SYM region, do you?

A grand experiment, Minerva? No doubt the true purpose of the site. What three governing methods will you employ?

Check the region of Nine Hell (Sorry, Buck ).

My current favourite is Mineva.

You see my point? I think there's rule to prohibit multiple entry for the game.

I have checked the region mentioned by Minerva. It is clear the she have multiple states. Burn her !

I made clear I have multiple states in one region created by myself. What's wrong is that?

Wrong ? you must have planned to move them to SYM as soon as they become strong *takes another doze of prozac*
