Novariea wrote:Nation Name: The Commonwealth of Novariea
Current political parties in your nation and their beliefs: N/A. There are no political parties in Novariea.
Type of Government: Unitary Autocracy/Benevolent Dictatorship
Religion: N/A. Novariea has no official or state religion. Government is entirely secular and the vast majority of citizens are atheist, agnostic, or otherwise irreligious.

Your nations opinion on...
Gay Marriage: Entirely legal and without taboo.
Illegal Immigration: Depends on the reason for it, though we don't see why they wouldn't just apply for legal immigration. Our requirements for it aren't particularly taxing.
Abortion: Legal and entirely the mother's decision.
Welfare and social security: Necessary institutions in any government that claims to care for its people.
Healthcare: We have a comprehensive and well-funded public healthcare service. Private care is also readily available for those who can afford it and desire it.
Education: One of the top priorities of the government. State-funded schools are generally excellently staffed and equipped, as are further education institutions such as colleges and universities. Private education also exists for those that can afford and desire it.
Death Penalty: It exists in Novariea, but only for the most heinous crimes (mass murder/rape, terrorism, high treason etc)
Free Speech: Of vital importance.
Environmentalism: Not one of the government's top priorities, but we attempt to prevent any undue harm to the environment, and applaud efforts to conserve and maintain it as long as they do not interfere too much with other endeavors.
Conservatism: Disliked, especially for the social aspects of it.
Liberalism: Generally well-liked. Novarieans are generally quite liberal, especially socially.
Anarchy: A ridiculous and potentially dangerous ideology.
Socialism: Fine to an extent.
Communism: A flawed and unworkable ideology.
Monarchy: Acceptable if the ruler is just, but we much prefer systems that do not select the ruler based on mere blood rather than competence and leadership ability.
Authoritarianism: Excellent, if the ruler is just and respects the freedoms of the people.
Democracy: Acceptable, but an inefficient method of running a nation.
Republic: See above.
Religion in general: Regarded as an oddity by most Novarieans, who tend to think of religious people as a bit eccentric. They don't overly mind it as long as beliefs are not shoved in other people's faces or used to discriminate against them.
Islam: See above.
Christianity: See above.
Hinduism: See above.
Buddhism: See above.
Paganism: See above.
Atheism: The stance of the vast majority of Novarieans, who are generally a skeptical and rational lot.
Opinion on Kynlin: We don't really know enough about it to form an opinion.

Like in your nation where religious folk are viewed as eccentric, atheists being a minority are viewed as socially awkward and culturally different. Other than that being somewhat of a similarity between us that is where our nations likenesses end.

I support free-market capitalism, American Conservatism, The Tea Party, Libertarianism, and the GOP

H-Alba wrote:Nation Name: The Green Republic of H-Alba
Current political parties in your nation and their beliefs:

• The Grove: Democratic socialism, Trade Unionism
Type of Government: Parliamentary Republic
Religion: Druidism (Freedom of religion guaranteed)

Your nations opinion on...
Gay Marriage: Legal, no problem
Illegal Immigration: illegal, though immigrants who enter illegally will not be deported, but offered a chance to earn citizenship
Abortion: Legal, it is the individuals choice not the governments
Welfare and social security: a must to help citizens
Healthcare: The government must provide this. All citizens deserve good health
Education: Something all citizens deserve, and get
Death Penalty: Bad, no one should take the life of another
Free Speech: Must. Limiting free speech leads to removing personal freedoms
Environmentalism: Our nation is made up of radical environmentalists
Conservatism: Conservatism leads to ignorance
Liberalism: Good for the world
Anarchy: Anarchies can never work
Socialism: A must, to allow everyone to succeed
Communism: Good, but has not been implemented properly
Monarchy: Often leads to totalitarianism
Authoritarianism: Bad, Authoritarianism is totalitarianism
Democracy: A must. Democracies allow the people to rule
Republic: Republics allow the people to rule
Religion in general: Religion can help people, but can also lead to terrorism
Islam: A good religion and culture, but can also be conservative and backwards
Christianity: A good religion, but can also conflict with H-Alban society
Hinduism: A good religion, though not present in H-Alba
Buddhism: A good religion, with good morals
Paganism: Druidry, a Pagan religion, is the main religion of H-Alba. Its morals tend to good, and best for the people.
Atheism: Neutral
Opinion on Kynlin: Neutral. Not enough information is known about Kynlin

I think a vein just popped in my head.

Type of Government: Parliamentary Democracy
Religion: Religion and politics kept separate

Your nations opinion on...
Gay Marriage: Pro
Illegal Immigration: Illegal but we let them earn legal status pretty easily
Abortion: Pro 1st trimester, medical reasons afterward
Welfare and social security: have both
Healthcare: Universal single payer
Education: Universal K-12 + highly subsidized college
Death Penalty: against
Free Speech: support (with the exception of child porn and other extreme cases)
Environmentalism: pro
Conservatism: We have them but our conservatives are more like US Democrats and occasionally win elections (though not too often).
Liberalism: Most of our population is very liberal
Anarchy: Some anarchists on both the left and right. The socialist union was largely inspired by left-anarchist ideas. Most citizens don't go that far but we have freedom of speech
Socialism: Our government is somewhat socialist (similar to Sweden) though we are centrist due to recent WA resolution
Communism: Not communist but communists have free speech. Some communist ideas found in the socialists union.
Monarchy: Ours died out a long time ago and we have had no monarch for over 250 years. No issue with it so long as it is a constitutional one though.
Authoritarianism: Anti but do not censor political beliefs
Democracy: pro
Republic: pro
Religion in general: Freedom of religion and government keeps out of beliefs so long as they do not hurt others but beliefs must be separate from government as well.
Islam: small Muslim population. Don't like extremism but rest OK and freedom of religion
Christianity: About 8-10% of our people. Is acceptable though some of the conservative factions not liked but freedom of religion
Hinduism: No issues
Buddhism: Very popular
Paganism: Popular in our nation.
Atheism: Over 40% of our nation is either agnostic or atheist.
Opinion on Kynlin: Bit too capitalist I suppose (based on your profile) but really far too soon to judge

So many nations seem to agree with you these days. Ours is not one of them. Kynlin can only encourage you to experiment in more right wing policies of government.

Inutoland wrote:
Kynlin wrote:Give this info on your nation and give your nations opinions on these political/social issues. Fill it out dont tell me to look at your factbook. Im not taking the 5 minutes required to read it.


Your loss.

Nation Name: The Allied States of Inutoland
Current political parties in your nation and their beliefs: There are at least three dozen. Some of the main ones include:
-Conservative Alliance (Traditionalist, slightly authoritarian, mild socialism combined with laissez-faire social policy)
-Red Party (Decentralising socialist)
-National Democratic League (Pro-democracy, pro-egalitarianism, pro-capitalism)
-Freedom Party (Protectionist and isolationist)
-White Turtle Party (Pro-engagement with the world, free trade, Capitalism)
-Blue Orchid Front (Centralising moderate nationalist)
Type of Government: Confederation of parliamentary elected-monarchy states
Religion: Saweya, the traditional polytheistic faith of Inutoland is the dominant religion. We have no "national religion" and practice religious toleration.

Your nation's opinion on...
Gay Marriage: Homosexuality has always been legal in Inutoland, and some of the cults of our various deities encourage transgenderedness or gender-neutrality. However, there has been little social pressure to legalise homosexual marriage, and it remains unrecognised.
Illegal Immigration: Illegal immigration is against the law (see "illegal") and subject to arrest and deportation. However, the legal immigration route is straightforward enough that it doesn't become an engine driving illegal immigration.
Abortion: For medical reasons, not for convenience.
Welfare and social security: Reasonable safety net, hopefully without creating a permanently dependent underclass.
Healthcare: The Health System is in the hands of the Nine States' respective govenments. Each is organised a little differently, but we generally have what most would call a "National Health Service".
Education: Our government's main priority.
Death Penalty: For multiple or particularly gruesome or callous single murders.
Free Speech: The cornerstone of democracy.
Environmentalism: Overall, a Good Thing. However, if we need to kill an animal to save a human, we'll do it every time.
Conservatism: This tends to mean "traditionalism" in Inutoland. Western-style Conservatism doesn't exist in a single party.
Liberalism: The whole Liberal vs Conservative spectrum is unhelpful for dealing with Inutolander politics.
Anarchy: Actual anarchy is dangerous. There must be government of some form to restrain evil, otherwise you get a tyranny of the strong preying on the weak.
Socialism: Some socialism is a good thing, but it shouldn't be taken too far.
Communism: It's a nice-looking theory, but every actual example we've seen seems to dissolve inevitably into dictatorship.
Monarchy: We have a monarchy of sorts, though by the traditions of our people the monarch is elected from among the eligible (usually noble) candidates.
Authoritarianism: Usually a bad idea. Even if your current authoritarian government is good, who is to say their successors will be?
Democracy: The will of the people is the ultimate source of sovereignty.
Republic: We find the term "Republic" to be meaningless, as it encompasses everything from totalitarian dictatorships to federal democracies.
Religion in general: A good thing in general, but should not be used as a shield for reprehensible behaviour, nor should any one religion be elevated to the place of rulership. Our laws enshrine freedom of religion, so long as your freedom does not impinge on another's. Reasoned debate and persuasion are acceptable for attempting to convert someone. Financial incentives and coercion are not.
Islam: In general, we don't much like Islam, though there are a few Muslims here. They have the same rights and obligations as anyone else.
Christianity: Likewise, though we have more Christians than Muslims and they've been here longer. Monotheists can be looked down on by some of the more devoted followers of our gods.
Hinduism: The philosophy of higher Hinduism is a bit alien, and the caste system is something we see as untenable.
Buddhism: We think that the idea that "all suffering is the result of desire", on which Buddhism rests, is mistaken. How is the suffering of someone trafficked into slavery the result of their desire?
Paganism: We're pagans, for the most part.
Atheism: You're free to be an atheist, but we consider atheism (in the sense of the denial of any spiritual reality, i.e. materialism) to be a denial of What Is, and therefore stupid.
Opinion on Kynlin: We have yet to form one. As we see your responses to other nations, we will make our judgement.

Feel free to add any extra topics...

Well, maybe some notes. Inutoland has three separate species of human who are all equal before the law. We dislike slavery, and our law frees and grants automatic citizenship to any slave who enters our territory. And we're generally quite isolationist.

3 separate races of polytheistic humans who are encouraged to be homosexual or transgender according to pagan gods? Not my cup of tea, but at least you have an excuse for your opinions on government... Insanity?

Nation Name: The Democratic Commonwealth of Elyomia.
Current political parties in your nation and their beliefs:
National Democratic Party: The National Democratic Party is the most popular party in the country, and is the one currently in power. It is a centre-left liberal party. The NDP's key focuses are on foreign affairs, business and civil rights.

Party of the Democratic Republic: The Party of the Democratic Republic is the other major party in Elyomia. It is a right leaning conservative party, and focuses on the needs of rural Elyomians.

The Greens: The Greens are a leftist and moderately liberal party. They are gaining more support, especially from younger city residents. The Greens focus on environmental policy and education.

Christian Democratic Party: The Christian Democrats are a far-right wing party, who focus on the elimination of LGBT rights, the abandonment of the Department of Communications, Science and Technology, placing Christianity as the state religion and educating youths in creationism only. It is incredibly unpopular and often outspoken.

Socialist Party: An extreme left-wing party. They wish to abolish the bicameral parliamentary system and, in it's place, create the 'Council of National Unity'. They do not have any major policies in place, as they are almost always on the attack; they do nothing more than attack the policies of nearly every party. A very unpopular party.

National Party: The most extreme party in Elyomia. An extreme right wing party who will stop immigration and, on numerous occasions, has threatened to burn down mosques, temples and other non-Christian places of worship, and also has threatened to kill every non-Caucasian person in Elyomia. Legislation will be passed very soon which will outlaw the National Party.

Type of Government: Bicameral constitutional monarchy.
Religion: The Elyomian government is entirely secular, but it respects all religions.

Your nations opinion on...
Gay Marriage:
Same-sex marriage is a basic right. Elyomia supports same-sex marraiges and equal rights to all lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people.
Illegal Immigration: Illegal, however any legal immigrant is welcome with open arms in Elyomia.
Abortion: Legal, however the government takes a neutral stance to it.
Welfare and social security: Elyomia provides welfare and social security to all citizens if they need it.
Healthcare: Universal and free in Elyomia.
Education: Universal and free in Elyomia.
Death Penalty: Used very rarely in cases where massive casualties or the security of the nation is at threat.
Free Speech: Supported entirely, however hate speech is frowned upon.
Environmentalism: We support all action on the environment. Elyomia has a 'green' policy of energy and industry. Within the last 10 years, Elyomia has reduced its carbon output by nearly 25%.
Conservatism: Conservatism has an extremely broad definition. Elyomians prefer change rather than keeping to 'tradition'.
Liberalism: Supported entirely.
Anarchy: We disprove of anarchy. We believe for a nation to succeed, it needs a well structured government to lead them.
Socialism: We support democratic socialism, but not complete socialism.
Communism: Communism is not popular in Elyomia. It looks good on paper, but not effective when it comes to real-life situations.
Monarchy: As a constitutional monarchy ourselves, we support them. They are somewhat outdated though.
Authoritarianism: We disprove of authoritarianism entirely.
Democracy: We are a democracy, so we fully support it.
Republic: We are also a republic, so we support it too.
Religion in general: Religion is practiced throughout Elyomia. Freedom of religion is a basic right in Elyomia.
Islam: A fast growing, yet often misunderstood, religion. Many Elyomian Muslims are hard working and in high ranking positions throughout the workforce, and many other Elyomians study the Qu'ran, including the incumbent President and King.
Christianity: A peaceful and widespread religion throughout Elyomia.
Hinduism: A relatively small religion in Elyomia, however it is respected.
Buddhism: A relatively small religion in Elyomia, however it is respected.
Paganism: Misunderstood, but respected.
Atheism: Respected.
Opinion on Kynlin: Neutral, as we know little about the Commonwealth.

Weh faund a writin Goblin und godim ta wryt dis aup fer uz, en English tu.
Nut sher wy da clanking evan caerz, baht ordas aur ordas.

Nation Name: The Unified Clans
Current political parties in your nation and their beliefs: The Clanking. Very conservative in many ways, but allows freedom in recreational matters (alcohol, drug laws, etc.) no other parties, all of them wiped out.
Type of Government: Despotism based on intimidation/violence.
Religion: Yugism

Your nations opinion on...
Gay Marriage: Clansmen don't see the point in marriage, nor the point in sex without birth.
Illegal Immigration: If a clansmen sneaks into another country, they don't care. If someone from outside sneaks in, they are violently upset. There is no justification for such a thing to them.
Abortion: Again, no point in breeding without birth.
Welfare and social security: The weak are weak for a reason, they have the same attitude towards the poor.
Healthcare: Da week aur week fera resun; the weak are weak for a reason, if you're sick, it's your own fault, and you should deal with it yourself.
Education: Clansmen don't see the point in study.
Death Penalty: It's practically a hobby.
Free Speech: You're allowed to say whatever you want, as long as it's not negative towards the Clanking.
Environmentalism: Actually, they like nature because they know it can kick their ass whenever it wants, but at the same time, their own needs come first.
Conservatism: They embrace the idea of things staying as they are, but are dissapointed by the idea of going back to the way things were.
Liberalism: Clansmen are fiercely loyal, and would consider something like openly criticizing your leader to be completely immoral. Making too much freedom would just seem dumb and pointless to them.
Anarchy: They consider anarchy to be a relic of the past, as they sort of used to be one.
Socialism: While there's a degree of socialism in The Unified Clans in that the Clanking oversees pretty much everything, they don't see the point in the government trying to keep everyone equal.
Communism: Again, the weak are weak for a reason.
Monarchy: Even though the title "Clanking" suggests a monarchy, it's not quite the same. They are neutral, leaning towards supportive, on the factor that if the current king is strong and good, surely his kids should be too?
Authoritarianism: Clansmen believe that whoever is in charge knows exactly what is needed to be done and when.
Democracy: There's a degree of non-official democracy in the clans (ef ye fok aup, weh gona stamp ahn ya FASE) but they really think of democracy as something strange and unusual, and not in a good way. They generally assume democratic countries are impossile to trust.
Republic: They have noticed the tendency of "republic" to be used by nations who don't want to put more oppressive words in their titles. As a result, the general reception is similar to democracies, but also with an element of mockery.
Religion in general: Clansmen are fiercely spiritual, but the spread of non-yug religions is controlled by law and most don't give them any thought anyway. There are a few small sects of non-yug clansmen, but they are very few. Clansmen sometimes carry religious symbols, deliberately defaced, as a symbol of personal mockery, distaste, or simply because they liked the design but not the origin.
Islam: Clanmen have no real opinion on islam, as most don't really understand it. Islamic symbols are generally treated as unclean things to be destroyed, but not dangerous or scary, just irritating and dirty.
Christianity: Clansmen have looked at history and decided that Christians are imperialistic and dangerous. They generally don't trust them and laugh at them for worshipping an icon of peace. Defaced christian symbols are very common in Clan homes.
Hinduism: Same as islam.
Buddhism: Clansmen have actually 'stolen' the idea of Karma, but refer to it as "Kramma", and of course, with their own morals applied to it, it has a very different usage. There is a small degree of respect for Buddhism, especially as clansmen generally just remove buddhist symbols rather than defacing or destroying them, but nobody is open about it.
Paganism: Clansmen generally treat them with a "if they leave us alone, we like them" attitude. Talking about paganism will usually cause you to be mocked, and anyone admitting to believing in it would be treated as an outsider, but as long as it doesn't come up, they might as well not exist.
Atheism: Clansmen laugh at them openly. They consider them complete idiots. Not immoral, just idiotic and snobbish. They won't socialize with an atheist without openly making fun of them all of the time.
Opinion on Kynlin: The clansmen would respect the amount of money put into Law and Order and Defense But the amount of political freedoms would make them wary about trusting you. Overall I imagine they would be dismissive, probably assuming that it's 'another nation of peenkskeens tryin ta beh tuff' or something. Clansmen in general don't take other nations seriously unless they do something extreme.

Nation Name: The Social Democratic Republic of Goldsaver
Current political parties in your nation and their beliefs: (A note on our party system: Parties do not have any serious hierarchy and its more of something a politician will state he's associated with rather than any kind of real political party that actually influences its members. Also, parties are usually temporary, only set up for elections, with the exception of the few.
Interventionist Party A party that promote social liberalism, a strong welfare state mixed with regulated capitalism, and an extremely aggressive foreign policy. Currently this party is the Ruling party with 600 of 1000 seats in the Republic Congress. (OOC: It should be noted that the reason they rule is through decades, if not centuries, of the Military and various companies [Better known as the Military-Industrial Complex] that have to do with the military, influencing the culture of the Republic into having a rather strong militant fervor.)
The Socialist Party
Supports Social Democracy and Socialist economics. 200 seats for them.
Liberal Capitalist Party
Supports laissez-faire economics, as well as EXTERME Libertarianism (For example, they consider a private individual owning a Weapon of Mass Destruction to be an example of Right to Bear Arms). 200 out of 1000 seats for them.
(As a side note, there are various other groups who were in other smaller parties who hold seats, but they choose for one reason or another to identify with the larger parties)
Type of Government: Constitutional Democratic Republic
Religion: Secular Government, People can practice whatever belief they wish

Your nations opinion on...
Gay Marriage: We find differentiation between gender and sex to be barbaric, so of course we fully support the union of two consenting and loving adults in marriage
Illegal Immigration: No such thing. We welcome people of all types into our great nation, after all if people from other nations are desperate to come here we're obviously doing something right, right? Our borders are open to all, from the poorest migrant worker to the formerly hopeless refugee. We are a Haven for all, and our acceptance and welcoming of Refugees goes back to our very roots. And, of course, if some poor refugees want us to go save their family or friends who are still trapped in whatever tin-pot tyranny they escaped from, we will gladly teach the tyrants what War really is.
Abortion: We view Abortion as both legalized by neccisity and an issue we don't like to talk about much. Regardless a woman can get an abortion paid for by the state if she is having it due to finical reasons (read: Can't afford to raise the child) or psychological or physiological reasons (read: She has the fetus by rape, her life is at risk if she were to give birth, or the fetus has a genetic defect that will likely kill it right out of the womb if she gave birth). Otherwises, they have to pay for it themselves.
Welfare and social security: We feel society must raise up the least fortunate. This is a land of opportunity, after-all, and you can't have your shot at success if you were born to a horribly poor family. Welfare is our second most important tax-paid institution (the most being the military), and all who are in poverty are given what they need to live so they can have their second shot at success, and of course people who fail time and again we will pay for time and again. In the case of social security, those who are elderly and need assistance are given the same great assistance as everyone else.
Healthcare: By law, all employers must pay for their employee's health care plan, and our welfare system will pay for those who are unable to get jobs. Good healthcare is given to all.
Education: Education is the most valuable thing a person can get. Money and power are all useless if you do not have the knowledge how to use them. As such, the government makes VERY sure that our education is of excellent quality. Our schooling system is given the right and responsibility to keep our nation's history alive, to educate the future citizens, and to see to it our bright young children reach their full potential, for today is in our hands and the future is our children's hands. The Republic's, and all nations, very existence relies on good education.
Death Penalty: This is a complicated issue. The simple answer is that it is banned in all circumstances but that ban could easily be overturned. It must be understood that our reasoning for outlawing it was not the idea that it was morally wrong to kill a murder, rapist, or slaver. The reason it was outlawed is because the effect an execution has on the executioner. Understand that, before it was outlawed, our execution method was a single bullet to the brain stem. The fact that we were essentially forcing someone to shoot a fellow human being in the back of the head, and after several of them came out with various psychological disorders, it was decided to outlaw it. It remains banned to this day, and will not be re-legalized until the problems of possible innocence is solved (Of course we now know we could of just gone to hanging or something equally impersonal but you know, politics)
Free Speech: Free Speech is absolute here. Any restrictions on the use of a (wo)man's tongue is absolute barbarism. You could, of course, walk out your home and call the first person you see on the street all variety of curses (though we should mention we are a heavily gun-totting society so you would probably think twice), but of course most people use it to dissent aganist the government. Protesting is a long tradition here, and everyone participates in a protest one way or another, based on the idea that if you don't use your right of Freedom of Speech, you may start to take it for granted.
Environmentalism: We tend to think of supporters of this as Dirty Hippies. But understand that we are a vast desert nation so its not like their are any forest areas being chopped down.
Conservatism: We just lop that word in with Barbarism. We view any attempt to impede social or economic progress as an attempt to undermine civilization. (though of course you could preach such barbaric ideas of tyranny all you want, just expect no support.)
Liberalism: We view this as the natural way of things, humans progressing socially and economically. We would of course define ourselves as Liberal.
Anarchy: Though we have called alot of people barbarians in this answer sheet, we wish to emphasize that these guys are REALLY barbarians, as they are REALLY attempting to destroy civilization as we know it (understanding we believe the rule of law as a fundamental part of civilization), though we mostly ignore anarchist "nations" (Unless they is some real chaos going on in there, in which case we will intervene).
Socialism: Our opinion is the people's opinion, and their opinion on this changes often. (Going from "BEST THING SINCE BEER" to "Meh.")
Communism: Too easily corrupted and therefor we dislike it, despite its noble intentions.
Monarchy: The idea that being born to a certain family somehow entitles you to a position of power is a B and A word we're sure you can guess by now. Monarchy is disliked STRONGLY here, as is aristocracy.
Authoritarianism: Tyranny. We will make it our goal to eventually liberate any poor nation that comes under the boot heel of authoritarianism. Though there are so many in this world we find it hard to make such a commitment.
Democracy: A civilized society must have some democratic elements to be civilized.
Republic: Generally speaking, though not entirely necessary, civilized societies as we see them are Republics.
Religion in general: We feel in should be kept private for the most part, at home or in your churchs/mosques/whereveryourplaceofworshipis. Though you can of course preach your faith as much as you want. We just don't like to talk about it here.
Islam: Roughly 25% of our religious population follows the teachings of Prophet Mohammed. And it is respected as any other religion.
Christianity: Roughly 30% religious population is part of the Body of Christ. And again, all religions are respected.
Hinduism: Not common at all, but all religions are respected.
Buddhism: ^
Paganism: While the state respects this as any other religion, our people really don't. Not that they hate it, they just tend to think of it as more "ridiculous" than any other religion. Its seen more as something teenage boys and girls practice for a short while out of curiosity than as a religion. Pagans are VERY few in number, though they have historically been a presence here most of them have assimilated into other religions.
Atheism: 50% of of our population would identify themselves as Atheists or Agnostics. (Side note: Islam and Christiantiy's statistics were measured from the religious population. Meaning that 50% of the religious population is Christian or Islamic. And the religious population makes up 50% of the people of the Republic. Just to avoid any confusion. [For the record, the other religious group with a decent size is Judasim, with 25% of the religious population, and the remaining 20% is a mix of various other religions])

Nation Name: Fischistan
Current political parties in your nation and their beliefs: The government does not recognize political parties, although people tend to unite into either a liberal or conservative group.
Type of Government: Representative Democracy
Religion: The government does not claim to support any religion on its own, but it is known to lean towards atheism heavily.

Your nations opinion on...
Gay Marriage: Totally fine with it
Illegal Immigration: VERY loose immigration laws; most cases of illegal immigration are not filling out the paperwork.
Abortion: We supply free abortion to rape victims, and allow it any other time(but do not recommend it as a birth control method).
Welfare and social security: We supply unemployment benefits, disability benefits, extensive retirement benefits, benefits for those under the poverty line, and government-funded childcare payments for single parents that do not already receive childcare payments.
Healthcare: Hospitals pay no corporate tax, and we regularly give out grants for medical research.
Education: We give out lots of money to public schools, but we have no public colleges. Private schools, colleges, and universities pay no corporate tax.
Death Penalty: You kill someone, you die. Simple as that.
Free Speech: More important than the right to vote.
Environmentalism: One-third of our country is preserved public land. The rest are mildly regulated.
Conservatism: The government should not have an opinion, although the majority of our population tends to be left leaning.
Liberalism: See above.
Anarchy: NEVER, NEVER, NEVER a good idea. Ever.
Socialism:A bit too extreme for our liking. We use a slightly more centrist version of this.
Communism: If you can pull it off, go for it. Good system if you can get it to work.
Monarchy: Worked well in past times(2002-2005, since that is the beginning of the universe as we know it), but not now.
Authoritarianism: All sapient beings have the right to freedom, We oppose it strongly.
Democracy: A society can function without it, but it's best to have it.
Republic: Completely ridiculous way of making everything more complicated.
Religion in general: Technically, the government isn't supposed to have an opinion on it, but ask anyone important and they'll say its completely ridiculous.
Islam: A fine religion.
Christianity: Another fine religion.
Hinduism: A religion the government would actually support(if we could), as we believe in its values, such as finding empowerment in oneself(or am I confusing it with the one below?).
Buddhism: See above.
Paganism: Again, a fine religion.
Atheism: The preferred belief by most Fischistanis.
Opinion on Kynlin: You should stop giving corporation so much political power. Elections are supposed to represent the people, not just the rich. And you would expect that with all the police funding you have, crime wouldn't be a problem. We are eyeing your national health service, though.

Conservatism: Neutral
Liberalism: Classical liberalism yay
Anarchy: A misunderstood term....

Democracy: Bunch of people voting to take away profits from good hardworking buisinessman like myself to things like education, healthcare and the like. Opposed
Republic: Favor so long as buisiness has it's say

Islam: See above
Christianity: See above
Hinduism: See above
Buddhism: See above
Paganism: See above
Atheism: The vast majority of our citizens

Nation Name: The Dominion of Creedonious
Current political parties in your nation and their beliefs: Multiparty nation, with the more successful parties being centred around the right of centre area of the political spectrum

True Way - Very socially conservative, anti-science, pro-isolationist, advocates for the dominion to be scrapped in favour of a theocracy. Represents most major religions due to the low amount of following of organized religion in Creedonious, although if the party saw success, rumour has it the party would split into warring factions. has never won a seat, or even gathered more then 5% of the vote for a district.

Conservative Alliance - Former politically right party, the party was absorbed after the parties leader (the Prime Minister at the time) and five members of his cabinet were found guilty of mass fraud, embezzelment, and not enforcing environmental regulations that lead to the Danarius Beach disaster, and then executed. Most of the fiscally conservative members flocked to the Democratic Reform party, which at the time was a right-of-centre party, while the social conservative leaning members moved on to the True Way and kept it from fading into oblivion.

Democratic Reform - One of the nations three stalwart parties over recent history, they're the furthest fiscally politically right that you can get while being electable. Promotes the cutting back of welfare, relaxing of business regulations (but not complete removal), very restrictive permanent resident/no immigration policy, supports an isolationistic foreign policy, is against membership in the WA, supports the maintaining of current military spending, and to privatize all but the most critical of industries. Libertarian in it's view of social issues, it currently has no policy to curb social issues other then supporting actions that preserve a more traditional lifestyle. Currently the ruling party for the last two elections.

Liberal - Originally center-left to counter the Democratic Reform's center-right platform, both parties have moved to the right with the formation of the Social Labour and dissolution of the Conservative Alliance respectively. Largely straddles the line between both sides fiscally wise, matches both parties in being largely socially liberal. Currently the opposition party in parliament.

Social Labour - Left leaning party, supports more spending for social services, expanding the nationalization of some industry segments, expanding the welfare state, removal of the death penalty, legalization of all drugs, cutting back on military spending and replacing the largely isolationistic foreign policy with a very large diplomatic crops, generous foreign aid, and membership in the World Assembly. About as far left as you can go and still be electable in Creedonious. Earns the occasional seat in ridings that have a large student or lower income population, but that's the limit of their success. Has been attempting to court union members from the Liberals with little success.

Faulkes Fanatical Faithful - Former political party, known for their hardcore anarchist views, advocated banning of all government, especially police. Support never measured more then 20,000 in votes. Tactics moved from speeches and internet videos and to violent takeovers of areas via flash mobs. The party was wiped out during the Argentine Fields massacre.

Type of Government: Dominion
Religion: None, it's not the states business, hence there's no official religion. From census data, agonstic ranks around 75% of the population, with atheism around 15%. The other major religions round out the remaining ~10%

Your nations opinion on...
Gay Marriage: "The state has no place in the bedroom"

Illegal Immigration: There currently is no legal immigration. All visitors that exceed a temporary visa of six months and are not employed in an industry to where we have a storage of qualified personnel is deported using the amount retained upon entering the country. Those that attempt to avoid deportation are banned from ever returning. Human traffickers are punishable by death.

Abortion: First trimester abortions are legal, albeit rare. Education on the pros and cons of having children, and the implementation of birth control have reduced abortion occurance to birth control failures and the semi-rare occurance of rape.

Welfare and social security: A bare minimum is offered to ensure anyone that hits hard times can get back on their feet and support themselves. Unemployment and retraining programs are offered and encouraged to be used, but permanent welfare does not exist. Education in basic economics and monitoring of the financial industry help to soften boom-bust cycles and increase the amount of the populace that can support themselves in their later years.

Healthcare: Free healthcare for all residents of Creedonious exists. Visitors and non-citizens are required to purchase insurance coverage before entering the country from approved vendors. Abuse is uncommon, but results in suspension of services/billing of services in few, depending on the nature of the offence, the condition of the abuser, and their health status.

Education: Education up to Grade 13 is paid for by the state. Scholarships are solely a college/university matter, but are common for students that are within the top 10%. Students that excel during their university/college years and earn a degree for positions that are needed in the workforce are eligible for being reimbursed for their tuition upon successful completion of their studies.

Death Penalty: Exists for crimes to where the crime has no shadow of doubt cast upon it, and is considered an affront to society. Murder, treason, drug dealers, human traffickers, and white collar crimes of an extreme nature (think Bernie Madoff, or Exxon Valdez incident) are all eligible if guilt is conclusive.
Free Speech: Free speech is supported to an extent. Hate speech/threats are criminal offenses in Creedonious, due to historical incidents.

Environmentalism: Alive and well, albeit sane. 85% of Creedonious is largely in the state that it would be if the nation didn't exist, with a largely service based economy removing some of the more stereotypical offenders. Harsh laws for environmental damage (see death penalty) and economic death for companies that are found guilty of such offences usually are a good 1-2 punch to deter polluters. Urban sprawl is almost unknown, due to the strong move away from suburbanism. Environmental extrematism is socially unacceptable to the vast majority of the populace, partly because the populace is already pro enviroment, and extrematismist behaviour is actively combated by the vast majority of the populace.

Conservatism: Fiscal conservatism, both at government and private level is well integrated within the society of Creedonious. Spending for the sake of spending is extremely frowned upon, and bankruptcies are both rare and a social "black spot". Social conservatism is largely unknown, with the only two slight leans to that department being an isolationistic foreign policy, and aversion to change for the sake of change.

Liberalism: Certain aspect of liberalism are both used and encouraged (free health care, schooling, no toll roads, environmentalist actions) when making government policy, although fiscal liberalism is not well accepted. Social liberalism is embraced to a point; the populace believes people have the right to live how they wish, if it doesn't infringe on other's rights to do the same.

Anarchy: Loathed. A former political party existed (see the FFF party description) who has linked such a political viewpoint to the actions that occurred that day. Barring a totalitarian state occurring in Creedonious (long odds to say the least), such a political viewpoint will be many generations before it's spoken of publically again.

Socialism: Certain aspects have been suggested, and some approved that help to give all citizens an even start in life. Most however are not looked at as practical, popular, or possible in the current political climate.

Communism: Looked upon as an economic experiment failed many times over. In a country that values private commerence in all areas that isn't critical to life and liberty, there's no chance of this occurring.

Monarchy: Indifferent. Creedonians wouldn't support a monarchy to rule them, but have no issue with those that do, provided their subjects have freedoms level to their own. Potentates that do not have been turned away from visiting and embassies closed for such reasons.

Authoritarianism: Not possible. Creedonians will not support a dictatorship and it is a social given that a massive uprising would occur should such a government structure come to pass.

Democracy: As the country is a Westminister style democracy, it's pretty well supported.

Republic: Certain contingents support the country moving from a parliamentary style government to a republic style government, but so far it remains a small minority that does.

Religion in general: Looked upon as a good source of classical architecture (indeed Creedonious has a few former places of worship that are now historical landmarks), but is not thought of for the most part. Evangelistic, orthodox, or theocratic religious viewpoints are adhored.

Opinion on Kynlin: No opinion.

I hate anarchism, liberalism, socialism, communism, Occupy Wall Street, and the Democratic party
