Incomprehensible Nation Classifications

Postby The Intellocracy Utopia » Fri Oct 21, 2016 8:58 am

Some nation classifications are really unhelpful. What the heck is a New York Times Democracy? What's a Father Knows Best State? Maybe I'm just dumb.

Please be patient. While I don't know how to answer your question, I'm sure someone out there does.

Edit: A Father Knows Best state is Authoritarian.

Based on how well you know about ideologies, you could classify a New York Times Democracy a moderate centrist government that emphasizes political freedom more than an Inoffensive Centrist Democracy, and a Father Knowns Best State could be a moderate dictatorship that cracks down on political freedom but generally has moderately granted civil rights. It's really based on your perception.
'Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching. I charge you therefore before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, who will judge the living and the dead at His appearing and His kingdom: For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables. But you be watchful in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry.' (II Timothy 4:1-5 NKJV)

Furthermore, NS classifications aren't meant to be like standard classifications such as "communist" or "center-right". They have Max's own special kick to them.

And that's even without looking at the 'Conservative' & 'Liberal' themes...

Population = just under 20 million. Economy = only Thriving. Average Life expectancy = c.60 years. If the nation is classified as 'Anarchy' there still is a [strictly limited] national government... and those aren't "biker gangs", they're traditional cross-Clan 'Warrior Societies', generally respected rather than feared.
