This is a hard one.

If I had to pick one, I’d pick this one.

Do you use illustrator or Photoshop? Just curious.
An Oligarchic state where the ultra-rich govern a nation of entrepreneurs and innovators. Just as corrupt, hedonistic and materialistic as you think, despite its progressive policies and emphasis on quality of life.

I chose that factbook because it was the only one that showed any sort of development. The nation is an interesting concept, numbers are a bit ridiculous and I almost fell asleep reading it. It needs work.

Their dynastic factbook is really interesting. Did you use a format or did you make it yourself?

I appreciate when political parties are delved into as they add more depth to a nation's government.

I believe that this is their best factbook. It is well made, vibrant and informative. However, their factbook is an exact copy of https://www.nationstates.net/nation=chill_beats_llc&#39 factbook by the same name. https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=1293367 I do think that you two are the same person, as the factbooks were published on both nations at around the same time.

The one about Soviet Influence. It is both complete and gives a nice "alt-his" equivalent to the Cuban Missile Crisis of OTL.
