The Issue
Far-right-wing Nazi supporters plan to stage a rally in the city center tomorrow, giving voice to their violent, racist views.

The Debate

Optie 1: "Frankly, I'm appalled that the government can even consider allowing this travesty to go ahead," says prominent Jewish banker George W. McAlpin. "We can't let these animals broadcast their message of hate. Surely Bamihap is too civilized for that."
[Accept]

Optie 2: "It's exactly because we're civilized that we must let the demonstration proceed," says free speech campaigner Charles Chicago. "We may not like what they have to say, but in this society, people have the right to argue whatever political view they want, no matter how hateful, selfish, or stupid it is."
[Accept]

[edit]Ik heb optie 1 gekozen[/edit]

NationStates hits version 1.6! The big news is that we've just gained the feature you've all been praying for (and hassling me about via e-mail): player-submitted issues. From today, you can write an issue and submit it for me to review; if it's a good one, in it goes. This will provide NationStates with an ever-expanding pool of issues, allowing everyone's nations to develop in new ways. That's right: no longer will you be endlessly assailed by Harry Potter controversies!

New issues should start showing up within the next few days (especially in older nations). To submit an issue, follow the brand new link from your nation's "Issues" page.

Boek is overigens behoorlijk amusant

The Emirate of Zazzizi
"Die for our honor!"

UN Category: Psychotic Dictatorship
Civil Rights: Few
Economy:Imploded
Political Freedoms: Outlawed
Location: The North Pacific

The Emirate of Zazzizi is a tiny, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its punitive income tax rates. Its compassionate, cynical population of 5 million are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Social Welfare, Religion & Spirituality, and Defence. The average income tax rate is 59%, 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 Information Technology.

Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Zazzizi's national animal is the djuk, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the obozo.

You have a telegram!

You have one outstanding issue.

The Dominion of Zhenarum
"Don't eat marshmellows. They're bad."

UN Category: Compulsory Consumerist State
Civil Rights: Below Average
Economy: Powerhouse
Political Freedoms: Unheard Of

Location: Fok

The Dominion of Zhenarum is a small, devout nation, renowned for its complete lack of prisons. Its compassionate, hard-working, cynical population of 8 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.

The small, corrupt, pro-business government is mainly concerned with Religion & Spirituality, although Commerce and Social Welfare are secondary priorities. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Furniture Restoration, and Automobile Manufacturing industries.

Meat is a luxury afforded only to the wealthy, the mining industry is making inroads into environmentally sensitive areas, citizens are barcoded to keep track of their movements, and the government's religious works are headed by a New Age guru. Crime is moderate, probably because of the country's utter lack of prisons. Zhenarum's national animal is the platypus, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the nookie.

Zhenarum is ranked 2nd in the region and 79,483rd in the world for Lowest Crime Rates.

The Issue

Prospecting company Nukes4U has uncovered a large uranium deposit in Zazzizi's south-west.
The Debate

1. "This is a terrific find!" claims Nukes4U CEO Steffan Winters. "It will provide an enormous stimulus to our economy and create thousands of new jobs. It's win-win! All we need from the government is permission to bulldoze the rainforest that's on top of the deposit."
[Accept]

2. "You've got to be kidding," says Green politician Freddy McAlpin. "This rainforest is thousands of years old! This country needs more environmental protection, not less. And to destroy the environment in order to mine uranium that then goes into nuclear bombs--well, that really sticks in my craw."

This is the position your government is preparing to adopt.

3. "There's no need for an either-or decision," says the government's Minister for Mining, Clear-Felling, and the Environment. "We can preserve most of the rainforest and allow mining of a small part. After all, think of all the good that the money from this uranium deposit can bring to Zazzizi."

The Republic of New Croutonia

"Buy Now, Pay For Double Later!"


UN Category: Compulsory Consumerist State
Civil Rights: Some
Economy: Very Strong
Political Freedoms: Few
Location: Fok

The Republic of New Croutonia is a tiny, economically powerful nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 5 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.

The tiny 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 1%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Cheese Exports, Furniture Restoration, and Retail industries.

Crime is a serious problem. New Croutonia's national animal is the Dragon and its currency is the Credit.
