Hooray, another first world country that has miraculously emerged from a civil war with its industrial and economic base intact.

[Ikania]

Hooray, another first world country that has miraculously emerged from a civil war with its industrial and economic base intact.

It starts getting tiresome after awhile.

I wouldn’t expect you to say that; after all, you voted for the highest per capita on offer.

Because we had the option of being either shit poor or having too much money. And since no one can ever roleplay like they're poor because we're all a bunch of privileged men living somewhere that isn't squalor, the choice is obvious.

I move to re-open naming, on the basis that all the options presented to me were extremely shitty.

$15.000 isn’t “shit poor”, but I digress.

Definitely not poor, but still not great. It's quite close to Russia's GDP per capita, and I wouldn't exactly call it a good place for politics.

Not poor, but, like I said, not great.

[New Werpland]

Not poor, but, like I said, not great.

Russia is also a very unique place, wealth is not what makes its politics shit.

Anyway that's what was voted for. It can still be a petro-state, like Equatorial Guineau, as Filimons once suggested.

It is indeed, and a petrol-state would be very interesting. Equatorial Guinea-style is kinda risky in my opinion, though. Not sure if dictatorships are compatible with the Senate.

Regardless, it's a good idea, however it is important to note that Russia has a massive history with hundreds of thousands of facets; that's what makes it so unique. Its nuclear arsenal, the Cold War, its rivalry with the US, the Napoleonic Wars, the USSR; so much of Russia that makes it unique. My point is that the concept is a hit or miss, but hopefully it will work out.

I think he meant the wealth, not the dictatorship.

It's definitely possible, but still - my point remains valid.

[Atlanticatia]

In my $32,000 GDP resolution, that should be PPP, not nominal.

[Costa Fierro]

Russia is not a poor country.

Well I would not call it especially wealthy either, given a substantial chunk of the population lives in poverty.

[New Werpland]

Russia is not a poor country.

Well I would not call it especially wealthy either, given a substantial chunk of the population lives in poverty.

But in comparison to the average African country, they are pretty wealthy.

Most countries are like that.
