What government type do you think real life nations would have if they were on NS?

I'll start with some:

North Korea: Father Knows Best state
Iran/Libya: Psychotic Dictatorship
USA: New York times Democracy
Turkey: Moralistic Democracy/Conservatist Democracy
Greece: Corporate Police State
China: Iron Fist consumerism
Sweden/ Findland: Scandinavian Liberal Paradise
Denmark: Social Democracy
Russia: Father Vladimir Knows Best state

I think most of the 'Western World' would be something along the lines of Inoffensive Centrist Democracies.

Some areas would surely be Anarchy. Just replace 'biker gangs' with the drugs gangs.

Wut?

Definition:
Free trade, free market, not-so-free merchandise. Civil rights are moderate; political rights are generous


Now, this is possible, but this...

Citizens are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.


Is definitely NOT Britain.
