Hey im just wondering if anyone still players this? We should make our own Region if we dont already have one....I'll gladly make one...Anybody?\
Here's my nation
The Supreme Waffle of Modern Atlantis
"Vendi Renten Torak"
UN Category: Capitalist Paradise
Civil Rights:
Good Economy:
Strong Political Freedoms:
Some
Location: The Atlantic Islands
Modern Atlantis is a UN Member
The Supreme Waffle of Modern Atlantis is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its punitive income tax rates. Its hard-nosed, hard-working population of 1.171 billion are either ruled by a small, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Social Welfare, Law & Order, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 76%. A substantial private sector is led by the Book Publishing industry, followed by Information Technology and Uranium Mining.
Libraries are now installed with jacuzzis and mini-bars, the government has undertaken a massive education and health program to combat VODAIS, mobile phone masts are being erected all over the country, and main battle tanks stalk the woods of Modern Atlantis in search of doves. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Modern Atlantis's national animal is the dove, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the shell.
Modern Atlantis is ranked 1st in the region and 41,069th in the world for Healthiest Nations.

While I am at it, I will now provide an update.
At time of last post, I had 4 nations (Timesplitter, The Last Ride, Aysee Deesee, Neonic Carthage). The Last Ride and Aysee Deesee are no longer existant within Nation States. I have made a few more nations (Sith Lord Kaiba, Killers United, Paul Teutul Sr). I am planning on keeping Killers United, but not SLK and PTS.

The Dictatorship of Killers United
"KILL OR BE KILLED!!!!"
UN Category: Iron Fist Consumerists
Civil Rights: Rare
Economy: Very Strong
Political Freedoms: Outlawed
Location: Cambodia
The Dictatorship of Killers United is a huge, economically powerful nation, notable for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 201 million are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, moralistic government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defence, and Public Transport. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 40%. A tiny private sector is dominated by the Automobile Manufacturing industry.
Senior citizens can usually be found doing heavy manual labour, murderers frequently escape punishment by claiming they were protecting their honour, the nation's drinking water tends to glow green at night, and eight-year-olds with lemonade stands have been known to be locked up on charges of embezzlement. Crime is a serious problem. Killers United's national animal is the python, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the bullet.
Killers United is ranked 1st in the region and 51,485th in the world for Healthiest Nations.

Yea thats right... i managed to sieze the UN delegate position after a bloody coup d'état and bribery with cookies  ...
UN Category: Compulsory Consumerist State
Civil Rights: Some
Economy: All-Consuming
Political Freedoms: Outlawed
Location: Promised Land
The Steaming Pile of Crappymania is a huge, safe nation, remarkable for its complete absence of social welfare. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 887 million are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, pro-business government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defence, and Commerce. The average income tax rate is 74%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, followed by Information Technology and Uranium Mining.
Young children are regularly seen wagering pocket money at blackjack tables, guns are banned, the government seizes all major gold finds, and all guns must be registered. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Crappymania's national animal is the Warthog, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the Crap.
Crappymania is ranked 1st in the region and 3,043rd in the world for Largest Retail Sector.
And btw Trog, what happened to your Neolithic Carthage nation?

It'd be nice to see our newer members join this. The Region for us is Heroes Community.
The Ultimate World Power of Mvassland
"You can give a horse water, but you can't make it drink"
Category: Anarchy
Civil Rights: Superb
Economy: Frightening
Political Freedoms: Excessive
Location: Heroes Community
Regional Influence: Minnow
The Ultimate World Power of Mvassland is a massive, economically powerful nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 7.65 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 individuals devotes most of its attentions to Education, with areas such as Social Equality and Defence receiving almost no funds by comparison. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Book Publishing industry.
The arms industry is backed by government subsidies and harsh anti-protest laws are in place, college students make ends meet by selling their kidneys, 'The Anti-Government Hour' is a popular programme on many of Mvassland's radio stations, and suburban families are finding themselves increasingly short on food as they waste precious water on their lawns. Crime is totally unknown. Mvassland's national animal is the man-eater, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the man-eater ear.
Mvassland is ranked 54th in the region and 56,494th in the world for Most Corrupt Governments.

My nation. I chose empire since late rome had a political structure that was closest what I wanted so it gives the right idea.

The Empire of Aurile
"What's good for a person isn't best for the people."
Category: Authoritarian Democracy
Civil Rights: Unheard Of
Economy: Developing
Political Freedoms: Some
Location: Heroes Community
Regional Influence: Minnow
The Empire of Aurile is a tiny, safe nation, renowned for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, cynical population of 5 million are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.
The large, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Social Welfare, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 31%, but much higher for the wealthy. A substantial private sector is led by the Trout Farming industry, followed by Cheese Exports and Basket Weaving.
Crime -- especially youth-related -- is well under control, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Aurile's national animal is the raven and its currency is the auri.
Oh and does anyone know what happens if you dismiss and Issue?
Edit: I'm quessing it has no effect.
and BTW. Here's something hilarious.

I created one 
The Free Land of Drathirvlos
"Be strong so as to not be abused, or be weak and suffer"
Category: Benevolent Dictatorship
Civil Rights: Excellent
Economy: Strong
Political Freedoms: Rare
Location: Heroes Community
Regional Influence: Minnow
The Free Land of Drathirvlos is a tiny, socially progressive nation, renowned for its absence of drug laws. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 5 million enjoy great individual freedoms in everything except elections, which, where they exist at all, are populist shams for a dictatorship government that has no intention of ever giving up power.
The medium-sized, corrupt, pro-business government devotes most of its attentions to Law & Order, with areas such as Social Welfare and Religion & Spirituality receiving almost no funds by comparison. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4%. A small private sector is dominated by the Information Technology industry.
Crime is a major problem. Drathirvlos's national animal is the spider and its currency is the zen.
