You create your own country, and manage its economy, rights, government, etc. You can change these by enacting laws and such here is the site

NationStates (http://www.nationstates.net)

here is my nation

Pancho Carrancho (http://www.nationstates.net/cgi-bin/index.cgi/target=display_nation/nation=pancho_carrancho)

oh and join this region if you want to

The Great Alliance of Chaos

PM me for the password, it's only for members of this forum

Yeah, I signed up to that when Ev mentioned it before.

I've got a nice secret island hidden away where no-one can reach me. :D

But you are allowed multiple nations (so long as a max of one is in the UN) so I'll join that region when I get around to thinking of a name & stuff. :P

By the way, your link doesn't work; you've missed off the ending.

Bah. I'm gonna go make some breakfast -- yes, it is quarter past one in the afternoon here; yes, I did get up about two hours ago; yes, I was in bed and asleep by ten last night; yes, I do need to spend less time sleeping & more time doing stuff -- then I'll think up a nice nation name and join the region. :P


Title: Jennifer Government
Post by: Lord Lanair on January 15, 2004, 04:07:26 PM
I think I'll just create a nation, then join a region later (whenever someone gives me a password).  :rolleyes:

Title: Jennifer Government
Post by: Saladin on January 15, 2004, 10:53:53 PM
ok I edited my URL for my country. The title you get to choose from like The Corrupt Dictatorship of, or in my case, The Rogue Nation of, however you have to choose the second part like mine is The Rogue Nation of Pancho Carrancho. How about just doing SpectralShadows?

btw Rug what's your country's name?


Title: Jennifer Government
Post by: SS on January 15, 2004, 11:31:22 PM

What's scary is that my country truthfully does reflect my beliefs.  Wait a month, and then check on it.  LOL

Opper- you live in Holland, so the nudity law you approved isn't far-fetched. :P  


Title: Jennifer Government
Post by: opperdude on January 18, 2004, 12:42:29 PM
:huh: wut do you mean, public nudity isn't allowed here as far as i know...
i did legalize drugs tho, and i believe that actually is the good thing to do, it reduces crime


Title: Jennifer Government
Post by: opperdude on January 22, 2004, 11:22:11 AM
It is illegal to make racist remarks in public, the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit

hmmm strange...

UN Category: Anarchy
Civil Rights: Superb     Economy: Strong     Political Freedoms: Excellent

Now, explain to me exactly how this can occur...

Anarchy rules out a strong economy: at best it'll turn into crude barter system of trade with goods, not money...
There are no political freedoms in anarchy, because politics don't exist, period.
Pretty much the same goes to civil rights, with the added fact that the nation description specifically saying the biker gangs rule the land o_O

Whether by peaceful resignation or by violent upheaval, there's no way for all three aspects to be anywhere better than "Horrendous"...


Title: Jennifer Government
Post by: SS on February 17, 2004, 04:43:33 PM
The UN category is crap.
My main nation is dedicated to hapiness, nature & low-crime, irrespective of cost, but I'm labelled Iron Fisted Capitalist.
I've got another nation where I rule over my people as a God, and it's called a Democracy, even though I've outlawed voting!

Gand- how did you become an anarchy to begin with?  LOL  


Title: Jennifer Government
Post by: GandalfTheOld on February 18, 2004, 06:57:02 AM
i just kept on choosing choices that gave more and more freedom to people... and then it started calling my nation as "anarchy"....


Title: Jennifer Government
Post by: SS on February 18, 2004, 12:52:57 PM
Well duh, you've given them freedom to do as they like, and you're fortunate enough to have good trading people. :P
