<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "NationStates Role Playing Simulation/Game"]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/54.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net NationStates Role Playing Simulation/Game You basically create your own nation, and then interact with other nations other people have created. Haven't had much time to explore it, but it seems pretty neato.

I bet a lot of the super politics people here on Dakka would get a kick out of it. It's sort of like a role playing game where you have nations instead of characters.

You can also create a region and have other nations join the region and then elect a nation to be that region's representative to the World Assembly. I propose creating a DakkaDakka region!

So try it and see how you like it

Yes.

This is mine.

Then I joined ther UN, I got tired of blocking all the touchy feely laws, yet didnt have time online to toy with my nation, which for some reason was growing from a microstate. A couple of months later I was a benign dictator of an developed country with a population base the scale of India.

The Dominion of Sorkan

“Per ardua ad Infernum”

Category: Father Knows Best State
Civil Rights: Some
Economy: Strong
Political Freedoms: Few

Location: Lazarus
Regional Influence: Minnow

The Dominion of Sorkan is a huge, devout nation, remarkable for its compulsory vegetarianism. Its compassionate, hard-working, cynical population of 804 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.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of the Environment, Law & Order, and Defence. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 81%. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising fourteen-year-old boys selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.

There have been a series of riots between local cannibals and health food advocates, funding for education has been redirected into the military, Pinkerton agents are called in to forcibly break up white collar strikes, and record sales of 'child-whacking sticks' have been recorded. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is relatively low, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Sorkan's national animal is the Serpent, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Talent.




Actually thats fethed up enough to be fun.

The Imperial Regency of Otagia is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by QUETZAL with an iron fist, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 12.706 billion 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.

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, Commerce, and Education. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of the Mobius Band. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 44%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, and Automobile Manufacturing industries.

Tax evaders are regularly visited by agents of the Otagia Blood Tithe, Otagia's leader goes out to lunch surrounded by large men in dark glasses, abortions are routinely performed in Otagia's hospitals, and Members of Parliament operate under a PAYE scheme. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Otagia's national animal is the Otagian Coatl, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the Nuyen.

Otagia is ranked 6th in the region and 5,114th in the world for Safest Nations. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/319758/1982494.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/319758/1982494.page GMT NationStates Role Playing Simulation/Game

Regional Influence: Minnow

The Armed Republic of Felsistan is a fledgling, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed population of 5 million enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The government -- a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass -- concentrates mainly on Social Welfare, although Education and Healthcare are on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 40%, but much higher for the wealthy. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing, Cheese Exports, and Automobile Manufacturing industries.

Crime -- especially youth-related -- is well under control. Felsistan's national animal is the armadillo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the libre.

The Free Land of North Estherfordshire

“We'll kick your ass in rugby!”

Category: Left-Leaning College State
Civil Rights: Superb
Economy: Reasonable
Political Freedoms: Very Good

The Free Land of North Estherfordshire is a tiny, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its absence of drug laws. Its hard-nosed, intelligent population of 7 million enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Social Welfare, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 28%, but much higher for the wealthy. A robust private sector is led by the Gambling, Furniture Restoration, and Woodchip Exports industries.

Voting is compulsory, North Estherfordshire's children are widely acknowledged as the most foul-mouthed in the region, and the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit. Crime is moderate, and the police force struggles against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. North Estherfordshire's national animal is the estherford jabbstabber, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the estherford dollar.

Superb
Location: the West Pacific

Regional Influence: Minnow

The Commonwealth of Scholarly learning is a fledgling, socially progressive nation, notable for its devotion to social welfare. Its hard-nosed, intelligent population of 5 million love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The government -- a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt, socially-minded morass -- concentrates mainly on Social Welfare, although Education and Healthcare are secondary priorities. The average income tax rate is 43%, but much higher for the wealthy. A very small private sector is dominated by the Uranium Mining industry.

Crime is well under control. Scholarly learning's national animal is the owl, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the pound.
