Liberalism is an outlawed ideology, expressing any support for it in Public or in Private (you think you're free from survellience in your own apartment? guess again).

Our nation is pretty liberal overall. We're classical liberal and such things as smoking, drinking, owning guns, etc. are legal and pornography, prostitution, etc. are partially legal (well, the Human kind in both cases is restricted). Of course, Homosexuality is taboo, Gay marriage is banned, and people can't smoke recreational drugs. But, oh well, doesn't matter anyway.

Liberalism is outlawed, and is punishable by death. It is only allowed in the privacy of your own home. Any attempts to challenge it or protest the law will result in military action. Gay marriage is illegal and punishable by death. Homosexuality is allowed in the privacy in your own home, for now.

Stary Stabor is a primarily Liberal country which follows many Liberal Ideals with a few exceptions. Homosexuality is permitted as well as gay marrage. We provide free healthcare and education. The exception to our Liberal ideals are gun freedoms which allow people to own guns (there are background checks) and people are allowed to open carry their weapons. We also allow the smoking of marijuana within the privacy of your own home.

Well, it seems the conservative nations aren't exactly tolerant of opposing opinion and a fair and open intellectual market... small wonder.

The Patriarchal Collective would consider itself liberal on many issues (Barring Feminism... we are so bloody conservative on this that it isen't funny). Conservatives make up a good showing in our population as well; even holding complete control of the nations third-largest Brotherhood (Political party), and holding the Chair of Singapora; The Sons of Singapora. The local liberals allow them to practice there beliefs as they will (except in cases of violent uprisings, in which case they will be quelled as any other Enemies of the State). The Collective's economy, indeed, is very liberal; with federal boundries set for every type of business and vital industries (Such as food production, power, military industry, water quality, transportation, health care, and a few others), firmly under public control(Who's profits, oximoronically, allow us to have a lower general tax) . Strangly, Andonam is one of the few nations on earth where homosexual marriages are the ONLY marriages recognized by law. This is because slavegirls, being property, can not officially be married. Most other polices are liberal, and wide array of cultural and religious views are celebrated and respected.

Liberalism exists in many forms. Classical liberalism is represented by the minor "Liberal Party," which holds 9 seats out of 300. It was the major party of the left from the division of the Republican Party in 1849 until the rise of the Radical Party in 1908. The Radical Party is the representative of social liberalism in Salois politics, advocating Keynesian economics, liberal social policies, and an overall centrist platform. It had moderately social-democratic tendencies until the rise of neoliberalism in the 1980s. It now holds 27 seats in parliament. It was the largest left-wing party until the rise of the Social Democratic Party in the 2007 parliamentary elections, which currently holds 93 seats.

The Liberal and Radical parties belong to the center to center-right parliamentary bloc "The People's Union," which holds 99 seats over all and forms the Official Opposition to the democratic socialist government of the "Left Front" parliamentary bloc, led by the Social Democratic Party, which holds 135 seats.

Some of the Pegasus citizens, and the numbskull earth pony slaves demands not only for the end of slavery, but also modernization into this so-called "first world country". They’ll do anything to encourage activist and foreigners to aid the movement to modernized Wingsoar into some democracy state or conduct illegal activities to free some of the slaves from Wingsoar. Thus Liberalism is widely hatred by the nobles and the royal family which led to outlaw the concepts towards the general public.

It should be noted that the local police and agents usually crack down this moment when it becomes too large and punishable by death.

How is liberalism in your nation?

Liberals in Argaia tend to be more along the lines of classical liberals.

In Minzo, we grant freedom of religion and freedom of speech, but in moderation so it dosen't get out of control.

Moderation of liberty is the destruction of liberty. The last thing free people require in life is a nanny state which tells them what is "good" for them in matters of the soul, and in terms of public speech.

Our nation was founded upon the principles of liberalism. Many forms of liberalism exist throughout our political spectrum. Liberalism is very popular and various forms of it are found in one way or another in all four of the nations largest political parties. The Labour Party have liberal socialism, the Progressive's have liberal conservatism, the Independence Party have classical liberalism and the Liberal Party has centrism and modern liberalism.

Saiwania is heavily liberal on social issues overall, but remains economically conservative. Our nation has remained ardently committed to free market capitalism for most of our history which hasn't changed much. The only area of our politics that has moved consistently, pertain to individual freedoms or domestic policies. We could almost be considered a libertarian nation which is right leaning.

Dalodon has been increasingly Authoritarian in the past 2-3 years, but the Government always tries all sorts of ploys and campaigns to make the people believe they are ok. There is speculation that the armed forces and police are less strict on Saturdays and Tuesdays, but all in all there are tougher dress code laws, clampdown on quick fix banking trades since the global financial collapse and capital punishment has almost returned to the nation. I wouldn't advise you to go there on holiday nowadays.
