Region: Miniciti UN Category: Capitalist Paradise Civil Rights: Excellent - Economy:All-Consuming - Political Freedoms:Very Good Battle Cry: "We carry our own water!"
The Holy Empire of Dhulus is a huge, devout nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 672 million are either ruled by a small, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.
There is no government in the normal sense the word; however, a small group of community-minded individuals juggles the competing demands of Commerce, Law & Order, and Religion & Spirituality. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture, Uranium Mining, and Pizza Delivery industries.
Murderers frequently escape punishment by claiming they were protecting their honour, cities are engulfed by smog, X-Files ratings have hit an all-time low, and local executives are seen on the corner with cardboard signs reading, "will oppress the masses for food". Crime -- especially youth-related -- is pervasive. Dhulus's national animal is the Desert Opossum, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the Ein.
Dhulus is ranked 7th in the region and 118,811th in the world for Nicest Citizens.
(Yeah, my people are mean, bitter, and hell bent on gathering up as much money as they can by stepping on the backs of the poor, but hey! We have a pretty good economy! Oh, thanks for the reminder on the little things Lapse.)

The Hypocracy of Lapse "Live and let spam"
UN Category: Inoffensive Centrist Democracy Civil Rights: Very Good Economy: Powerhouse Political Freedoms: Average Location: Bristle
The Hypocracy of Lapse is a massive, safe nation, remarkable for its devotion to social welfare. Its hard-nosed, hard-working population of 3.531 billion 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.
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defence, and Social Welfare. The average income tax rate is 100%. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Uranium Mining industry.
Voters must frequently select what they view as the lesser of two evils on the ballot, the nation's massive battleships are often mistaken for islands, the nation's drinking water tends to glow green at night, and record sales of 'child-whacking sticks' have been recorded. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lapse's national animal is the bristlenose, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the shrunken head.
Lapse is ranked 2nd in the region and 109,505th in the world for Nicest Citizens.

I was at frightening for about a week. It moved me to Father Knows Best state.
I really want the highest in Civil rights, the highest in Economy, and the absolute lowest in Political freedoms. I am having a hard time trying to get my political freedoms down without affecting civil rights too much.
Also, being part of the UN doesn't help much. They keep raising my Political freedoms.

Here's my nation:
The Sultanate of Spazzotron
"The innocent shall suffer-" (The nation of West Spazzotron's motto is the completion of this quote, which is "Big time.")
UN Category: Inoffensive Centrist Democracy
Civil Rights: Very Good
Economy: Imploded
Political Freedoms: Few
Location: Realiiity
The Sultanate of Spazzotron is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its punitive income tax rates. Its compassionate, cynical population of 1.804 billion 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.
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of the Environment, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 67%, 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.
People are now classified as male, female, or genderqueer, expensive lawyers are hired to defend citizens in court for public urination charges against their pets, the tenet of free speech is held dear, and same-sex marriages are increasingly common. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Spazzotron's national animal is the fluffy kitten, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the senzu bean.
