The Most Serene Republic of Shets and Giggles
Following a link on Mr. Spencer Watson's site (http://www.nationstates.net/cgi-bin/index.cgi), I created a mock nation for some simulation game.
Let me acquaint you with my nation (the computer wrote the description based on my answers to a questionaire. My FAVORITE line is the last line):
Name: The Most Serene Republic of Shets and Giggles
National Motto: "Do it like the monkeys."
UN Category: Inoffensive Centrist Democracy
Civil Rights: Good
Economy: Reasonable
Political Freedoms: Excellent
Location: the South Pacific
The Most Serene Republic of Shets and Giggles is a tiny, devout nation, remarkable for its absence of drug laws. Its hard-nosed, intelligent population of 5 million have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Religion & Spirituality, Law & Order, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 29%, but much higher for the wealthy. A very small private sector is dominated by the Trout Farming industry.
Crime is moderate. Shets and Giggles's national animal is the volkswagon bus, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the children.
