I'm afraid not. Facebook is a strange, distant foreign creation unheard of in Yasashii. There are local social networking sites, though none has a real majority of use or significance over the next. Many people will have profiles on multiple social networking sites.

Marians don't use FaceBook because:

A) It's an outsider thing
B) It is owned by a Jew
C) Social networks are for geeks and losers with no lives; socializing is about meeting real people and making real friends, not sitting on the Internet and pretending to have friends

Even though Marians easily have the technology to make their own social networks, they still prefer to contact friends with old-fashioned pen & paper letters, only using modern technology for urgent messages that don't require a personal touch.

Stolitland is well connected to the internet, but Facebook has fallen out of popularity in favor of other social networking services among the nation's youth.

No. It is illegal. We got our own, called the PeoplesBook. It is mandatory, as it makes the job of the People's Civilian Commissariat significantly easier.

Yes but under strict control. The government can snoop around anyone's profile with in the nation for ties to terrorists.

We have plenty of social networking sites, influenced by Facebook, but that particular site was disbanded even before our predecessor, Joplinia-Lambscott, was founded.

NOTE: Other uses of Astholm here have a different continuity and refer to work created by the user Astholm, not the nation

It is connected to facebook, social networking is limited due to an active population. There are only an estimated 2,000,000 social profiles in the nation. Thats roughly 1 in 20 people. It is used by mostly overweight people or those that like to stay indoors which is few and far between.

The term "social networking" in San Havana is playing sports together, jogging together or anything that is outdoors.
