Condemn, the money ought to go to the families of their victims and just to make it even more humiliating they ought to mail the checks to them personally.

In Mediterreania, "public school" means voluntarily funded charity school.

Whole-heartedly commend, that is what it means in the Empire as well. (Though we prefer private schools usually)


Whilst very much a capitalist nation, many corporations have a very diverse range of stock options for their employees, to the point in which many corporations have an almost 50/50 spread of capitalist owners/investors to employee organization ownership split. It is regarded as a great way to increase productivity.

Commend - though our system has 100% worker ownership.

In Mediterreania, "capitalism" is somewhat of a dirty word. [taking the same connotation as "socialist" in RL America]

Condemn, though we have the same in reverse, we can't possibly see why capitalism is so bad.

There is no real public land in the Empire, everything is owned by corporations, and when new land is discovered it's principle discovers may choose to incorporate their surrounding land. Sale and use of said land then goes through the shareholders of the corporation. Providing incentive to keep the value of the new land high, by keeping natural resources and the nature itself pristine.

Condemn. To prosper in the global economy you need to have a mix of both capitalism and socialism, even a bit more of the former than the latter in fact.

Conscription has been constitutionally outlawed in Greater Rhodes.

EDIT: Ninja'd, condemn Adrian Empire for not having any public land that is free for all to enjoy.

Condemn, as it may impair national defense in emergency situations.

Crap, ninja'd by JJ. Commend, because free trade is good; it's got free in the name, after all!

About ten years ago, as part of New Ziedrich's innumerable Public Sanitation Doctrines, the government prohibited the ownership of multiple pets, with the exception of things like ant farms and aquariums and such. Furthermore, ownership of pets was wholly prohibited without a special license costing ISC500 (about $928 at current exchange rates). However, currently existing animals were grandfathered in by the law. This was enacted due to the immense population of the country, which had nearly reached eight billion at the time. While only four billion people actually owned pets at that time, the problems caused by so many animals convinced the government to impose these new restrictions.

First-time violators of the law are subject to a fine not more than ISC2500 ($4644) and immediate forfeiture of the offending animals. Repeat offenders can face prison sentences up to two years' light labor in a penal factory.

Currently there are less than one billion registered pets in the Imperium, and the program is viewed as a success.

In the Hathradic States, the Senate holds to right to refuse to seat a President if they believe he is bad for the country. However, the last time they tried to do this, the President-elect merely sent in the Kriegjaegers and forced the Senate to seat him.

About 80% of new Ziedrich's power is produced by nuclear fission.

Indifferent, I suppose it makes sense that someone with so much influence best not vote. I just don't see the harm in it either.

By the way, in response to our lack of free public space, I should mention, owned as it is, many such things like beaches and park land are free to use, usually there is some other scheme at work, advertising at the beaches, hiking kiosk at the start of the trail, restaurants, but still many are free.


The Emperor of Adria receives no public money, but rather has ownership in several corporations, including the largest winery in the Empire.
