UN Category: Scandinavian Liberal Paradise

Civil Rights: World Benchmark

Economy: Powerhouse

Political Freedoms: Very Good

The Holy Socialist Republic of Constantinopolis is a massive, safe nation, renowned for its strong anti-business politics. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 3.566 billion enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level social equality free of the usual accompanying government corruption.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, liberal, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Social Welfare, and Social Equality. The average income tax rate is 100%. Private enterprise is illegal, but for those in the know there is a slick and highly efficient black market in Book Publishing.

[text related to recent issues goes here] Crime is totally unknown. Constantinopolis's national animal is the Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the socialist credit.

Constantinopolis is ranked 1st in the region and 4,021st in the world for Healthiest Nations.

In case you don't know what the UN rankings mean, here's the official NationStates chart:

The UN ranking represents your nation's position on a 3-axis political spectrum. Think of it as similar to the Political Compass chart, except NationStates has split the Compass's authoritarian/libertarian axis into 2 separate axes: one for civil rights (the right to free speech, for example) and one for political freedoms (free elections, for example).

As you can see, however, civil rights and political freedoms are strongly correlated. Notice that both the "high civil rights / low political freedom" and the "low civil rights / high political freedom" combinations are extremely rare (they are two rows of blue squares).

The most common type of nation is, not surprisingly, Inoffensive Centrist Democracy. The second most common is Democratic Socialists. :)

My ideal = Left-Wing Utopia (high civil rights, strong democracy, socialist economy)

Corporate Police State means no civil rights, dictatorship, and capitalist economy.

In other words, the complete opposite of what I stand for.

*charges at Anathema yelling "die capitalist pig-dog!" * ;D

Out of you who still play Nationstates, would any of you be interested in joining Earth II?

It's a world within Nationstates, where you claim RL territories and then RP basically.  This all happens within the Nationstates forums but the amount of land you can claim depends on the size of your Nationstate.

Most of the land is currently taken but I can donate some should anyone wish to join.

Here's the thread.

I wish I could, but after forgetting to log on to Nation states for a few weeks, they erased my countries. Damn, and both had finally passed the 600 million population mark.

R.I.P Country of Fed2K and House Trebeis.  :'(
