Create your own country fashioned after your own political ideals. Or get Il like Kim Jong and torture your people. Up to you!

I swiped the name from a historical entity, the first republic in Asia and only Hakka state.

The Republic of Lan Fang

The near are made happy, the far off attracted"

UN Category: Left-Leaning College State

Civil Rights: Excellent
Economy: Strong
Political Freedoms: Excellent

Location: the South Pacific

The Republic of Lan Fang is a tiny, socially progressive nation, notable for its absence of drug laws. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 5 million enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The small government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Social Welfare, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8%. A substantial private sector is led by the Furniture Restoration industry, followed by Gambling and Information Technology.

Crime is a problem, and the police force struggles against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Lan Fang’s national animal is the fox and its currency is the guiqian.

That looks like a lot of fun ML. Thanks for the link.

Cool! I wonder how the Rogue Nation of Forumosa would do. :smiley:

If we get enough people from around here to create their own countries, we could set up our own region, Forumosa. It only takes about 10 minutes to set up your NationState.

Check out the corrupt state of Imania and the Democratic Republic of Imanistan!

How many people does it take to form a region, mod lang?

I made three nations :smiley:

The Constitutional Monarchy of Pescadores. I’m not sure what this is suppsoed to be. Maybe sort of left-wing, environmentalist, libertarian. We’ll see where it goes.

Amoy is a benevelonet dictatorship. I decide what’s best for the citizens, but I’m really very nice. “Its compassionate, hard-working, cynical population of 7 million are proud of their wide-ranging civil freedoms, and those who aren’t tend to be dragged off the streets by men in dark suits and hustled into cars with tinted windows.”

Then there’s the private Sultanate of Wang Shuxian. This is Wang’s personal domain, whose sole purpose is to provide Sultan Wang pleasure and money. The people worship Sultan Wang as the one and only incarnation of the one true God.

I have created the The Grand Duchy of Maeghardras-Malfung
, located in the Forumosa region. To move your country there, click on your current region and the move to a new region option. Find “Forumosa”. You will be asked for a password. The password is “taiwan”.

It’s nice to see that the game recognioses my intentions for my state. Amoy has changed to:
“The Grand Duchy of Amoy is a small, socially progressive nation, notable for its compulsory vegetarianism. Its compassionate, hard-working, cynical population of 7 million 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.”

Cool.

How does this region thing work ML? What are the pluses and minuses of joining?

The U.N. issues a regional report every day, ranking the nations in a region on their performance in a number of categories, such as population, civil rights, extremity, public nudity rights, etc.

I am thinking of making a politically oppressive theocratic government just for shits and giggles. Call it the Holy Empire of Imanica. I don’t think I really like Imania, although Imanistan is getting fairly interesting.

who is jennifer to tell me what i can and cannot name my nation. who the hell is this hegemonic overlord to try to dictate to us the terms of governance for even simple things like flag choice?

death to jennifer. sic semper tyrannis!

rise up and throw off jennifer. the stupidest exercise in thought control in a long time. aspiring rulers of the world rise up and throw down your chains you have nothing to lose but a smidgen of your feudal subservience!

Nah…any game that gives me power over the lives of my very own followers (yippee!) is too good to give up.

Civil Rights: Good Economy: Fragile Political Freedoms: Average

Location: The East Pacific
The Kingdom of The Whole Planet Earth is a tiny, safe nation, remarkable for its absence of drug laws. Its compassionate population of 5 million are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government concentrates mainly on Social Welfare, although Healthcare and Education are secondary priorities. The average income tax rate is 38%, but much higher for the wealthy. A small but healthy private sector is led by the Furniture Restoration industry, followed by Automobile Manufacturing and Gambling.

Crime is totally unknown. The Whole Planet Earth’s national animal is the phoenix, which frolics freely in the nation’s many lush forests, and its currency is the crown.

You have a telegram!

You have one outstanding issue.

i didnt mean for that to happen at all…democratic socialists?? no

The country is nothing without democracy and the capitalism is on its way out questions is what got you that. I’d have made the Holy Empire of Imanica less capitalist if I didn’t know it would cost my economy, but democracy? I just squashed the Imanicans’ right to vote…mwa ha ha ha :smiling_imp:! I was a little more generous with the Imanistanis, Imanians, and the Tairenese.

Oh yeah? Well let’s talk about CHEESE, you bunch of losers!

Hey, for a newly formed nation, Imania isn’t doing too bad in our cheese dealings.

You can design your own flag. Just upload it from your computer and make sure it’s not over 6K.

Let’s talk about corrupt governments: Imanistan is ranked 13th…and the Holy Empire of Imanica is ranked #1! Yeah, baby…who’s your oppressive, corrupt, fundamentalist daddy now?! It’s a proud day for the Imanican government. :slight_smile: :slight_smile:
