Govern your own country!

It's very simple, and best done with friends.

It just takes 5 minutes a day to check up on your nation, and trade rhetoric with your mates about weapons inspectors, weapons of mass destruction, etc... Great fun!

It's best if you get some of your friends involved and form your own region. Could even have a Ten-Tenths region!

In my country animal rights activists are routinely jailed and capitalism was just outlawed !

Apparently it's only good for a few weeks though, then things start repeating..maybe time to start a new nation.

I've already got two massive countries on that:

The Holy Empire of Beer and Bourbon

"Pass us another luv!"

UN Category: Compulsory Consumerist State
Civil Rights: Some
Economy: Thriving
Political Freedoms: Few

The Holy Empire of Beer and Bourbon is a enormous, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 229 million are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The tiny, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defence, Law & Order, and Education. Income tax is unheard of. A robust private sector is led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, followed by Gambling and Soda Sales.

Military spending recently hit a new high, political activists are routinely executed, the tenet of free speech is held dear, and college students make ends meet by selling their kidneys. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Beer and Bourbon's national animal is the fat old jolly man, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the beer bottle.



The Federation of Manselland

"Ein Volk! Ein Reich! Ein Fuhrer!"

UN Category: Right-wing Utopia
Civil Rights: Some
Economy: Thriving
Political Freedoms: Outlawed

The Federation of Manselland is a enormous, safe nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 238 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 enormous, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defence, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 22%. Private enterprise is illegal, but for those in the know there is a slick and highly efficient black market in Beef-Based Agriculture.

Citizens are enjoying a recent large cut in taxes, guns are banned, Animal Liberationists are regularly jailed, and scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Manselland's national animal is the Kangaroo, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the Flargennugen.


Both nations are located in the region GEORGE CARLINS DRIVEWAY!

hehe....move whereever you like .

This is my country...

The Holy Empire of Madcows is a small, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its punitive income tax rates. Its hard-nosed, cynical population of 10 million are ruled with an iron fist by the socialist government, which grants its people the freedom to do whatever they like so long as it doesn't involve getting richer than anybody else or challenging the government.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it is mainly concerned with Social Welfare, although Education and the Environment are on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 79%, 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.

All industry is owned and run by the government, euthanasia is legal, military spending is on the increase, and scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes. Crime is totally unknown. Madcows's national animal is the earthworm, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the cowpie

Location: Ten Tenths
The Queendom of Formula3 is a small, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its absence of drug laws. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 8 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.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Social Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 29%, but much higher for the wealthy. A small private sector is dominated by the Retail industry.

Organ donation rates have hit a new low. Crime is relatively low. Formula3's national animal is the turkey, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the f3dollar.

My little baby!

The Republic of MALVERNATION is a tiny, devout nation, remarkable for its absence of drug laws. Its compassionate, 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.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it devotes most of its attentions to Social Welfare, with areas such as Defence and Law & Order receiving almost no funds by comparison. The average income tax rate is 67%, 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 Basket Weaving.

Military funding has been stripped back. Crime is totally unknown. MALVERNATION's national animal is the Yak, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Shoe.

Just taken a look at it, what a great site, here the details of my country:-

The Empire of Oakleigh Avenue is a tiny, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, intelligent population of 5 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.

The government -- a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, moralistic morass -- juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Healthcare, and Social Welfare. The average income tax rate is 38%, 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 Cheese Exports.

Crime -- especially youth-related -- is well under control, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Oakleigh Avenue's national animal is the owl, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the jonesy.

My nation...


The Rogue Nation of Kaan is a small, devout nation, notable for its strong anti-business politics. Its hard-nosed population of 8 million are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Religion & Spirituality, and Commerce. The average income tax rate is 33%, 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.

The mining industry is making inroads into environmentally sensitive areas, Animal Liberationists are regularly jailed, and elections have been outlawed. Crime is moderate. Kaan's national animal is the Lion and its currency is the Euro.
