22 hours ago: Following new legislation in Asabon, 'Mountain Doobie' is widely regarded as the nation's favourite drink.

I don't remember passing a bill about drinks.

[Mando Pandango]

what about marijuana

[Hippopo]

I'm tempted to ban gambling to watch my economy tank since it's my ONLY industry... but I will just let kids gamble instead

My only industry was cheese, and I let that tank.  By doing so, gambling took it's place and my economy changed from "basket case" to "strong".

Either this simulator likes change or it likes gambling.

Nope, you can hop in any time.

Basically you just create a fictional nation and it gives you some stats to compare with other fictional nations via the decisions you make on the issues it gives you.

19 minutes ago: Following new legislation in Tavono, divorce lawyers are found begging on the streets.

I eliminated the institution of marriage and this is the result

also, my page still says that same-sex marriages are increasingly common despite marriage itself no longer existing

[The Hand That Fisted Everyone]

Following new legislation in NotSid, the government's only official statement on the burning down of NotSid City was that 'they shouldn't have been so careless'.

If there is one thing I want my people to remember me for, its for my compassion.

Like the first post of the thread says, after registering, go to http://www.nationstates.net/region=boyahland and use the password "echosentme" to join Boyahland.

Also after registering, you may want to, in your settings page, set the issue interval to twice a day (default is once) and customize your flag's appearance.

Mine is actually starting to become my utopia:

"The Nomadic Peoples of Chattieria is a small, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape. Its hard-working, intelligent population of 29 million enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The small, liberal government concentrates mainly on Public Transport, although Education and Commerce are secondary priorities. The average income tax rate is 13%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Trout Farming, Basket Weaving, and Uranium Mining industries.

The country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, cars are banned, birds and children's kites are regularly brought down by anti-aircraft fire, and anti-government web sites are springing up. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is a serious problem, and the police force struggles against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Chattieria's national animal is the Bat, and its currency is the AAA."

my country is fucked beyond repair

The Grand Duchy of Popsiclasia is a small, safe nation, remarkable for its absence of drug laws. Its hard-nosed, cynical population of 26 million are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Social Equality, Law & Order, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 36%, but much higher for the wealthy. A robust private sector is led by the Automobile Manufacturing, Trout Farming, and Gambling industries.

Citizens who become homeless are immediately executed, criminals are executed and their property seized, leather-clad individuals can be seen walking their slaves in public parks, and citizens are permitted to carry concealed handguns. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force. Popsiclasia's national animal is the stegosaurus, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the cherry shekel.
