NationStates

Your Nation's full name People's Republic of Sovietstanica
Does your Nation have ignorant citizens who don't follow laws? Yes, and any people who do not follow laws are seen as uncivilized and uncultured. Social punishments (e.g. exile, excommunication, etc) are usually more than enough to deal with them.
Is your Nation's government tolerant towards some other Ideologies? Not officially, though the concept of Democratic Socialism can be interpreted by anyone. It's a bad loophole, unfortunately, and has been used to justify and legitimize military governments.
Are human rights obeyed in your Nation? Obligations come before Rights. If one follows the law, the government will give more rights to said oneself
Are there frequent revolts in your Nation? There were. However, due to some nostalgia for the more orderly authoritarian Republics, citizens tend to strive for unity and collectivism rather than individualistic goals.
Is corruption prevalent in your Nation? Yes but not for petty reasons. It's mostly funding diversion since the reputation of an area, a state-owned enterprise, or any other entity capable of being politicized is extremely important. It is not uncommon for an area to be left unfunded and has to beg to their surrounding regions. Furthering the stigma surrounding said areas.
Has your Nation ever been a Dictatorship before? Twice, during Gaulisceini's Order (Olden Republic) and the Fourth Republic.

Yes, of course. All sapient lifeforms have rights and privileges, including the ability to become citizens. _{Pure sapient life, anyway. Nekomimis are neither human nor cat.}

This is an extremely controversial question, and no two international observers (let alone TurtleShroom proper) has the same answer.

To open this can of worms, first ask the question: what is governmental corruption?

In TurtleShroom, the primary definitions are bribery, electoral fraud, and fabricating or planting evidence. All three of these crimes are punishable by death. In addition, all sexual misconduct, seduction and sleeping with others for favors (etc.) is handled as corruption (including fornication and especially adultery). In the public sector, sleeping one's way to the top, or trading sex for favors can also be punishable by death as political corruption.

Corruption in the Church and in charities are far more serious than political corruption and also carry the death penalty. Lastly, abusing positions of power for sexual favors, sexual assault, and (God forbid) rape (especially of children of any species) are the most heinous acts of corruption in TurtleShroom. Every instance of this recorded in TurtleShroom has resulted in capital punishment.

However, donating to political causes and campaigns (etc.), and even offering gift baskets and restaurant trips to politicians, are not, as long as the gift is logged and submitted to the Imperial Board of Electoral Purity (or the Parishionial equivalent). The Thirty-Fourth Amendment to the Constitution of TurtleShroom particularly addresses this definition by legalizing all campaign contributions and similar expenditures as human rights and free speech, as well as enforcing the strict logging procedures.

The definition of "bribe" versus "gift" is constantly defined and analyzed, as even under civil law, judges can't get their hands on what the legislature means. Consequently, the laws concerning bribes and gifts take up entire binders in TS legal documentation. Most of the longest laws in TurtleShroom concern matters of corruption and are expanded and redefined every time some butt much comes up with something new to mishandle.

Here's one common example. TS police are known universally as taser-happy and not shy about using their billy clubs. Unlike many nations with similar police culture, tasing is their first move over gunshots and it begins immediately.

Under TurtleShroomian law, policemen committing unnecessary violence to an active and dangerous suspect that is visibly and clearly in the course of committing a violent crime, in the presence of two or more witnesses, is not a criminal offense. This is known under TurtleShroomian law as "punitive force" and is a valid defense in court; use of punitive force against alleged nonviolent offenders is a criminal offense and is also grounds for mandatory termination of employment. Intentionally using punitive force against an individual that the officer knows is innocent is a criminal offense punishable by up to sixty years in prison.

This standard means that, on one hand, a policeman can openly engage brutality and not be punished under many specific circumstances. On the other hand, if he plants evidence or takes bribes (etc.), or deliberately damages a case (etc.), he can and will almost certainly be executed.

Furthermore, nepotism is culturally acceptable in TurtleShroom unless the family member is known by the appointing party to be stupidly incompetent. When this puts lives on the line, only then is it punished.

On the legislative side, TurtleShroom's politics has centuries of tradition revolving around earmarks, pork barrel spending, log rolling parliamentary procedure, and especially, in terms of funding, picking and choose what locations get it and what don't. Especially earmarks. Quid-pro-quo agreements between lawmakers appropriating public funds (e.g. fund my pet project and I'll fund yours), in public view, is well-known.
