Postby La Habana » Wed Apr 07, 2010 10:16 am

The Uber Nation of La Habana is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, notable for its complete lack of public education. Its compassionate, hard-working, intelligent population of 13.837 billion live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

There is no government in the normal sense of the word; however, a small group of community-minded, corrupt, liberal, pro-business individuals juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Commerce, and Education. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Uber City. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Book Publishing industry.

Scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, new urban roads are threatening city parks, 'A is for Annulment' is a popular children's song, and crime suspects are forced to submit to blood testing. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is crippling, and the police force struggles against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. La Habana's national animal is the Spirit of Gravity, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the Uber.

The Constitutional Monarchy of Birnadia is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls. Its compassionate, hard-working, intelligent population of 587 million hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent wise and just government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Social Equality, and Social Welfare. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Davidstone. The average income tax rate is 735%, and even higher for the wealthy. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Tourism industry, followed by Book Publishing and Trout Farming.

Voting is voluntary, teenagers across the country are celebrating the defeat of a national curfew bill, Birnadia is building an army to protect its overseas territories itself, and punitive tariffs protect local industry. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Birnadia's national animal is the wyldeog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Birnadian Pound.


As you can see, the Birnadian government generally likes it's nation description.

The Federal Republic of Bafuria is a huge, socially progressive nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 674 million enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.

The small government concentrates mainly on Education, although Defence and Healthcare are secondary priorities. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bafursburg. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Tourism, Information Technology, and Soda Sales industries.

All tariffs have been abolished, eminent domain has been abolished, cities are engulfed by smog, and college students make ends meet by selling their kidneys. Crime is relatively low, thanks to the all-pervasive efficient police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bafuria's national animal is the Bafurian Bull, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, caused by the overuse of public property, and its currency is the Bafurian mark.

Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 446 millionTRILLION are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent,corrupt government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Defence, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kathmandu. The average income tax rate is 100% 20%. Private enterprise is illegal THRIVING, but for those in the know there is a slick and highly VERY LOWLY efficient black market in Arms Manufacturing.

The colors pink and purple are banned from military unit insignia, citizens have reported seeing strange rays of light emanating from the moon, psychological disorders are a taboo subject, and postmen have been arrested in job lots for selling junk mail as home insulation. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Great Nepal's national animal is the cow, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the Nepalese rupee.

The government extracts wins trade concessions from poor nations in exchange for humanitarian aid, teenagers are sent to jail for being out too late kept in line, the public health bureaucracy is wrapped in miles of red tape very considerate, and reporters often lose their jobs over fact-checking errors. Crime is well under control, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare.

Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 1.434 billion live in a state of perpetual fear total liberation, as a complete breakdown deconstruction of the old social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs individuals working together as a community.

There is no government in the normal sense of the word; however, a small group of community-minded, corrupt, liberal, pro-business individuals devotes most of its attentions to Education, with areas such as Law & Order and Defence receiving almost no funds by comparison. Income tax is unheard of. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising fourteen-year-old boys selling lemonade, drugs and firearms on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.

All recreational drugs are legal, college students make ends meet by selling their kidneys, crime is on the rise as DNA sampling has been all but outlawed, and reports of arsonism have doubled since the introduction of a privatised fire protection service. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is crippling, probably because of the country's utter lack of prisons.

Its compassionate, cynical population of 1.391 billion are ruled by a mostly entirely-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt much-loved and democratic government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defence, and Social Welfare. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nova Latium City. The average income tax rate is 47%, but much higher for the wealthy. A large private sector is dominated by the Automobile Manufacturing industry.

There's a no shortage of swinging hot spots as land development grinds to a halt the land developement industry prospers, the welfare administration’s new sweeping authority has forced the poor and needy to shop from pre-approved honest and reasonably priced grocery lists, the government has undertaken a massive education and health program to combat VODAIS, and citizens are allowed to rise or fall based on their own merits. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare.

OCC: All those black lines through looks a little odd, so I decided just to post it as it should be.

The Commonwealth Kingdom of United Earthlings is a gargantuan, socially progressive and economically powerful nation, notable for its compulsory military service and sprawling nuclear power plants. The Commonwealth is also remarkable in that it is one of a few nations in the world to offer a universal national health service and educational program that pays for full college tuition up to four years. It’s asinine, sarcastic, profane, fiercely independent, hard-working, intelligent population of 12.24 billion hold their excessive world benchmark setting civil and political rights dearly, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with an eye of suspicion.
It is difficult to tell where the various small to medium sized omnipresent, liberal and conservative governments stop and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Healthcare among many other issues such as Social Welfare. It meets every day to discuss various matters of state in the various local state and province capitals in addition to the capital city of the Commonwealth itself, Reading. Citizens pay a flat income tax of between 45 and 60%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry of UEMS, followed by Book Publishing and Uranium Mining.
There's a shortage of swinging hot spots as land development grinds to a halt due to environmental and strict land use laws in addition to combating overpopulation, torture of all forms had been declared illegal and citizens are enjoying a recent large cut in taxes due to deficit reduction programs. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is relatively low, thanks to a well maintained progressive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. United Earthlings’s national animal is the Turtle, which used to teeter on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the Commonwealth Euro.

The streets are plagued with knife-wielding madmen, the roads are notorious throughout the region for their peril, zombie-like crowds of hard drug users stumble through the streets, and truth is often impossible to tell from fiction on the evening news. Crime is a major problem, and the police force struggles against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate.

The Free Bears of Bears Armed is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Chairbear of the High Council with a fair hand, and renowned for its complete absence of social welfare. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 8.39 billion live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

There is no government in the normal sense of the word; however, a small group of community-minded, corrupt, pro-business individuals juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Religion & Spirituality. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Council Groves. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Book Publishing, Tourism, and Gambling industries.

A crusade against barbaric religious practices has begun, college students make ends meet by selling their kidneys, the nation refuses to provide international aid, and there have been sightings of people walking around dressed in nothing but leopard-skin g-strings for 'religious reasons'. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare.

Our own version
The Confederated Clans of the Free Bears of Bears Armed form a fair-sized, environmentally stunning nation, governed by the High Council of Clans with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert venues. Its happy-go-lucky population of just under 19 million generally live in peace, confident of protection by the nation's traditional cross-Clan 'warrior societies'.

The national government constitutionally has little authority over 'internal' matters, which generally fall under the jurisdictions of the separate Clans instead, although it does possess the power of binding arbitration in any disputes between those Clans that are brought before it; however it meets regularly to discuss those matters that do fall within its scope, such as foreign policy and defence, in the capital city of Council Groves. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Book Publishing, Tourism, and Gambling industries.

A crusade against barbaric religious practices has begun, college students commonly have to work part-time jobs to support themselves, the nation refuses to provide international aid, and there have been sightings of people walking around dressed in nothing but necklaces of bones for religious reasons. Serious crime is extremely rare, thanks to the highly mobile police force and traditionally conservative policies in education and welfare. Bears Armed's national animal is the goldilocks, which is also one of the nation's favourite main courses, the closest thing that it has to a national religion is One Plus Seven, and its currency is the thaler.

The mining industry is making inroads into environmentally sensitive areas, citizens live in superstitious fear of the mysterious glowing clouds that float over Vinstin, movies and computer games are strictly censored for violencenudity and smut, and school uniforms are compulsory.

Postby The Shee of Sphericus » Thu Apr 08, 2010 12:57 pm

The Colony of The Shee of Sphericus is an ancient, clever and environmentally stunning nation renowned for entirely lacking common sense. This rather endearing trait manifests itself in a preference for genetically engineering mice that dislike biscuits (but are rather keen on used tea-bags) rather than inventing a sensible mousetrap and other such madness. Despite this the shee are creators of some of the most ingenious (and generally massively over-engineered) solutions to simple problems. A typical example of this would be dealing with short sightedness. This problem can be solved using glasses or contact lenses. The Shee discovered DNA, found the errant genes and fixed them.
There is no real government, rather the people vote on everything, no matter how small an ishue with a token "shee concil" which exists for much the same reason the the british royle famly does, I.E. to sign treatys, The voted chouces mostly involve the competing demands of Social Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 21%. An healthy private sector is dominated by the Book Publishing industry, exports of robotic equipment and genetically spliced new types of the national animal, the norn to keep as pets or sell to other nations.
History proves that the shee invented the steam engine as an offshoot of an attempt to design a better way of brewing tea before they invented the wheel, Voting is voluntary as most citizens would rather do their own thing, and a large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway. Crime is relatively low. The Shee of Sphericus's national animal is the norn, which is also it's favorite type of pet, and its currency is the albian credit.

The Confederacy of United Southernours is a huge, devout nation, remarkable for its complete lack of public education. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 390 222 million are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government. or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.
There is no government in the normal sense of the word; however, a small group of community-minded individuals juggles the competing demands of Religion & Spirituality, Law & Order, and Defence. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Gambling, Tourism, and Automobile Manufacturing industries.

Female newsreaders distract the nation by breastfeeding during broadcast, United Southernours's children are widely acknowledged as the most foul-mouthed in the region, the state pays for care of easily preventable illnesses, and the nation has welcomed its expats back with open arms. Crime is a serious problem, probably because of the country's utter lack of prisons. United Southernours's national animal is the Turkey, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the Confederate dollar.

United Southernours is ranked 5th in the region and 11,334th in the world for Most Pro-Market Nations.

The Confederate States of Yannia Yannian Confederation is a gargantuan, economically powerful nation, ruled by Yann Hendric III with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls. Its compassionate, hard-working, intelligent population of 12.163 billion 18 million hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt* government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Social Equality, and Social Welfare. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yannsborg. The average income tax rate is 100% 60%. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Book Publishing industry, followed by Tourism.

Murderers frequently escape punishment by claiming they were protecting their honour, parents live in fear of governmental 'child protection' squads, children are raised bilingual from an early age, and meat-eating is frowned upon. Crime is totally virtually unknown. Yannia's national animal is the Green Wyvern, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Stöyvër.

Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 133 million live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs quite well, thanks to a lack of government interference in their personal lives.

The tiny, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Commerce, and Law & Order. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Information Technology industry, followed by Furniture Restoration and Beef-Based Agriculture.

Young childrenWhole families are regularly seen wagering pocket money at blackjack tables, the government extracts trade concessions from poor nations negotiates trade agreements in exchange for humanitarian aid, people are now classified as male, female, male-to-female transgender, female-to-male transgender, or genderqueer, and manufacturers are sued for almost anything not covered in their catalogue-sized manuals lying to their customers. Crime is pervasive around, and the police forcestruggles against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate is deliberately prevented from unnecessarily violating people's civil liberties.
