The Free Land of Kemetica
"The shortest distance between two people is laughter."
UN Category: Capitalist Paradise
Civil Rights: Good
Economy: Very Strong
Political Freedoms: Good
Location: User Friendlia
The Free Land of Kemetica is a small, economically powerful nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape. Its compassionate, hard-working population of 16 million are either ruled by a small, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.
The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Social Welfare, and Religion & Spirituality. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 18%. A small private sector is dominated by the Pizza Delivery industry.
The mining industry is making inroads into environmentally sensitive areas, euthanasia is illegal, the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, and the police force is on a recruitment drive. Crime is moderate. Kemetica's national animal is the sphynx, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the cubits.

The Queendom of Keltia Arienadean is a small, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its devotion to social welfare. Its compassionate population of 16 million are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Social Welfare, and Public Transport. The average income tax rate is 60%, and even higher for the wealthy. Private enterprise is illegal, but for those in the know there is a slick and highly efficient black market in Arms Manufacturing.
The government's religious works are headed by a New Age guru, euthanasia is legal, military funding has been stripped back, and cars are banned. Crime is totally unknown. Keltia Arienadean's national animal is the elvish cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the tobleronians.

Civil Rights: Superb
Economy: Good
Political Freedoms: Few
Location: User Friendlia
The Rogue Nation of Balhiir is a small, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its strong anti-business politics. Its hard-nosed, cynical population of 9 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.
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Social Welfare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 47%, but much higher for the wealthy. Private enterprise is illegal, but for those in the know there is a slick and highly efficient black market in Book Publishing.
Meat-eating is frowned upon, bicyclists are banned from major roads, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, and marijuana is legal in the privacy of your own home. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is well under control, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Balhiir's national animal is the pixie, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the chocolate. |
