Does your nation publicly admit to having propaganda? No.

If so, which kind of propaganda? Two kinds: One: Is Promoting Antaviana Abroad to attract more visitors, Promote Antavaianan products Or attract foreign investments. The closest think to real propaganda if the large amount of stuff as souvenirs with our monarch on it.
Another is internal: To promote think like: Reciclage and go green, read more, donate blood and organs or Join the army and give a possitive view of the country inside, and their institutions as the crown.

Also, yes inside is to show that the country is nice and developed.

Answers:

1) Yes, the government is fully aware about their agitation propaganda programs.
2) Propagandas about ultranationalism, how and why the majority lupine race are superior, and other reactionary, fascistic rhetoric.
3) Yes, of course.
4) Quite effective to brainwash the entire population, especially the newer generations.

Does your nation publicly admit to having propaganda? Yes.

If so, which kind of propaganda? Once they have been voted into existence, state policies are explained and promoted to the public -it is illegal to do so for a proposed policy- and certain behaviours are encouraged by the state for sake of social harmony. Propaganda is spread mainly through the means of videos broadcasted over live channels and before on-demand programmes, public announcements broadcasted over speakers in public spaces, and reserved pages in newspapers and magazines.

Is your propaganda directed to make the people think that their nation is the best? Not directly, however public announcements going over state policies often offer comparison that might guide people towards this conclusion, similarly, announcements with the sole purpose of reinforcing the feeling of belonging to the national community -those might be wishing citizens a good morning or happy holidays in the name of some relevant national institution, or highlight the victorious results of a sporting events over public speakers- are some of the most commonplace.

Is your propaganda useful? Propaganda is considered useful for the sake of efficient communication, good governance, social harmony, national cohesion, or even fighting loneliness and helping citizen's mental health. The style of the propaganda however sometimes causes a gap between older and younger citizens who might not be receptive to the same discourse.

Does your nation publicly admit to having propaganda?
No. The Entity's official position is that we only release objective, unbiased information. In practice, the city has a media production crew that produces propaganda content.
If so, which kind of propaganda?
The Entity spreads propaganda with pacifist, globalist, democratic, socialist and humanist messages. These are spread through broadcast, social and community media.
Is your propaganda directed to make the people think that their nation is the best?
Yes. The content are crafted to project an image of peace, stability, safety and inclusiveness. Sometimes, we also make self-effacing content to make our city relatable to others.
Is your propaganda useful?
Yes. It enhances the universe's perception of our city. In particular, our propaganda helps us pursue relations with other nations and groups that share our values.

Does your nation publicly admit to having propaganda? Yes. However most propaganda is not there for political reasons.

If so, which kind of propaganda? There are posters all over the cities of Animeland encouraging the people to have large families, Accept robotic AIs and Koreans as citizens of the country, and to be good citizens and create good impressions of Animeland in the eyes of any foreigner. These posters just look like anime advertisements, so the effect is subliminal.

Is your propaganda directed to make the people think that their nation is the best? Not really. The Animelandean Political Party does not want to encourage anything that can resemble the nationalist regime of 1940's Japan, so nationalism and ideas of that kind are avoided like the plague by any member of government.

Is your propaganda useful? The propaganda may not be the most effective, but this comes at a tradeoff for it not being ugly and not ruining the aesthetics of the cities and public transport centers.

Does your nation publicly admit to having propaganda? No, but to outsiders, it's obvious that it is propaganda.

Is your propaganda directed to make the people think that their nation is the best? Yes, but it is also used for other, malicious purposes.

Is your propaganda useful? Yes, for the most part, it is; it is the main way to convince the populace towards the way the government wants them to think.
German Empire / Deutsches Reich

Following the CSA's indie, the world got into Great Depression 2. Germany went into chaos, & after, a DNVP-copycat came into power, renaming the country from the Federal Republic of Germany to the Imperial State of Germany, adding the Kaiser. Their first goal was to retake colonies, however colonialism was looked down upon officially. After taking back some colonies, the UK and France told Germany to withdraw within 6 months. They didn't, & declared, but Germany won, &got most of their former colonies & more. Also, they renamed the official name of the state to the German Empire, & made the flag the Kaiserreich. This nation doesnt show my views;No real-world association w/ Reichsburger movement beyond lore was ever intended.Screw em

Did your nation ever have propaganda in it's history? Yes, particularly during the Military Junta era. This is one of the reasons why people are so distrustful of propaganda.
Do you have very subtle propaganda-like things? Not really, aside from some children's cartoons subtly teaching children how to be moral and upstanding citizens.
Does your nation have "good" propaganda? ex: denunciation of rival nations It has political advertising from various political parties during elections but nothing beyond that.

* Does your nation publicly admit to having propaganda?
The country recognizes the presence of propaganda. The word "propaganda" in our community has a neutral connotation: the dissemination of certain ideas and knowledge.
*If so, which kind of propaganda?
The state promotes the ideas of scientific and technological progress, social welfare, materialism, cosmopolitanism, emancipation, and revolutionary spirit. Propaganda is carried out through the media, books, posters, monuments, holidays, films, websites.
*Is your propaganda directed to make the people think that their nation is the best?
No, it aims to suggest that our ideology is progressive. If other nations or regions are inspired by the same ideology, then they are as good as our community.
*Is your useful propaganda?
Useful. But it is difficult for us to assess the effectiveness of its impact. We are trying to use both rational and aesthetic methods of influencing the viewer. There is a significant variety of ideological nuances and aesthetic forms within the overall progressive paradigm.
* TLC Factbook
* Goal: increase comfort, technical capabilities and knowledge for most people.
* Pro: technicalism, social equality, cosmopolitanism, scientific atheism, revolutionism, emancipation.
* Contra: technophobia, reactionary despotism, nationalism, religion, ascetic regulation, traditionalism, patriarchality.
* Real location: Russia. Sorry for mistakes in English. Всем салют!

Does your nation publicly admit to having propaganda? The Propaganda Bureau of the Department of Culture & Heritage is not a secret.
If so, which kind of propaganda? Normally events and event planning, some radio and TV programming, lots of ads and billboards extolling socialist values and the State.
Is your propaganda directed to make the people think that their nation is the best? To a point, yes, but mostly in terms of encouraging the people to work hard for continued prosperity as well as some cultural pride.
Is your propaganda useful? It seems to be; recent polling shows roughly half the population enjoy the propaganda for its cultural merit. About a third of people hold a negative opinion. The remainder are neutral or have no opinion.

Does your nation publicly admit to having propaganda? - When asked, we deflect, saying "the obvious truth of socialism requires no propaganda."
If so, which kind of propaganda? - That which promotes global socialism, and denounces the evils of hierarchical capitalism.
Is your propaganda directed to make the people think that their nation is the best? - No, it calls for the other Martian peoples to foment revolution, and putting them down would not do much to encourage this.
Is your propaganda useful? - Not really, mostly because we're not trying to convince our own people, but those of other nations.
