There is an out of control trolley speeding towards Jeremy Bentham, who is tied to the track. You can pull the lever to cause the trolley to switch tracks, but on the other track is Immanuel Kant. Bentham is clutching the only copy in the universe of The Critique of Pure Reason. Kant is clutching the only copy in the universe of The Principles of Moral Legislation. Both men are shouting at you that they have recently started to reconsider their ethical stances.

I used to have a couple but I always forget to keep them alive. The only puppet I'm keeping my hands on nowadays is Ned Kelly.

I have so many puppets I can't keep them all from CTEing. I've never counted them though, and I probably forgot some of the ones I've created. This nation is a puppet, but who's puppet?

I think the highest that I had at any one time was probably like 30 or so, but right now, I only have a single puppet that I keep alive: Katranjiev.

None at the moment. I used to have puppets but they all CTEd. No time for maintaining more than one nation anymore.

If I recall correctly, his original nation is from March-ish of 2003, so you're still the grandpa of the thread thus far ;)

I have eight nations right now: this one (my forum nation), 60s Music (regional founder nation), and six puppets. This number is soon to be just four nations because I'm letting four of mine die, though I wouldn't be opposed to it if someone else wanted one or more of them. In total, I've used 20-ish nations on my time on this site, some of them lasting five years continuously, and others being in use for only a matter of weeks or even days. Is it true that at some point in antiquity, users were allowed to have no more than four nations? I seem to recall reading that somewhere, but I haven't been able to verify or debunk it.

I actually plan on creating one puppet to represent each of the 27 government types this summer and have them in a "museum" sort of puppet storage region, so if I go through with that, there'd be even more puppets to add to my total.
