This nation does not represent my actual views. A semi-feudal absolute monarchy going through political upheaval.

Leftist; democratic socialist with a helping of civic republicanism.

Continuing the discussion of associationalism from the previous thread, it mentions its use to solve labor-management conflicts. What seems to be described, however, appears more like tripartite social corporatism á la social democracy.

I don't drink...well, only rarely. I like wine.

I do have an interest in distillation and brewing, and the processes behind tequila and whiskey, beers, etc. Wine is cool, too.

Oh, and Moonshine. Obviously moonshine, since it's big in the South and Appalachia.
