Hail SwissPeace, hail Zurich!

On behalf of the entire region of Fok's native lands I would like to sincerely thank you and your fellow Zurich Armed Forces in helping to liberate our beloved region. It was a tough fight, but with our combined militairy, political and psychologial might, those fools of den did not know how fast they could retreat.

Already, our UN nations have endorsed eachother in rapid succession and that will allow us some breathing time to recover our power before some other invasion force plans to make the same mistake as den.

Lastly, I am going to consult the nations of Fok if we like to ally ourselves to Zurich. Though we play this for mindless fun, it might add some spice in our gameplay helping liberating other regions in need.

You will hear from us soon.

Best regards,
New Croutonia, UN Delegate of region Fok

The Most Serene Republic of Nginia
"Do what thou wilst."

Location: Fok

Regional Influence: Minnow

The Most Serene Republic of Nginia is a tiny, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its strong anti-business politics. Its compassionate population of 5 million enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The enormous, liberal government is effectively ruled by the Department of Religion & Spirituality, with areas such as Defence and Law & Order receiving almost no funds by comparison. The average income tax rate is 30%, 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 Uranium Mining.

Crime is a problem, and the police force struggles against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Nginia's national animal is the chameleon, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the ngine.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it devotes most of its attentions to Social Welfare, with areas such as Law & Order and Defence receiving almost no funds by comparison. The average income tax rate is 67%, 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 Woodchip Exports.

Crime is totally unknown. The Misplaced's national animal is the rat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the paper coin.

The Emirate of Zazzizi is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its strong anti-business politics. Its compassionate, cynical population of 803 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.

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 Education, Social Welfare, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 100%. 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.

A ban on unsolicited cold calling in all forms is in effect, every product goes through extensive safety-testing by the government, guns are banned, and ethnic minorities are often refused admission to some of the nation's best schools. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zazzizi's national animal is the homo, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the travestiet.

Get Efficient, Private Sector Tells Nature
The Issue

A group of prominent business identities has proposed privatizing Zazzizi's beaches.
The Debate

1. "Have you been to the beach lately? It's disgusting," says company spokesperson Faith Falopian. "There's litter, there's teenagers smoking, and there are people enjoying themselves without paying for it. Let the private sector in on this, and Zazzizi's beaches will be the talk of the region! And a nice little earner, too."
[Accept]

2. "Whoa, whoa, we're privatizing beaches now?" says local campaigner Faith Gutenberg. "These are public spaces! All Zazzizi's citizens have a right to enjoy them, not just the well-off. Yes, we should improve the quality of our beaches, but handing them over to the money-grabbers is not the right way to do it. The right way to do it is to boost government spending by increasing taxes."
[Accept]

quote:

The Issue
The latest "Harry Potter" book to hit schools across Koffemania has stirred up the greatest controversy yet.

The Debate
"I quite enjoyed the book, until I got to the part where Harry summons evil demons to do his bidding," says religious leader Clint Dredd. "Now that's just wrong. We need to restore some sense to this debate, by which I mean we should remove this book from the shelves, salt it thoroughly, and burn it."
[Accept]


Teachers union President Buy Rifkin says, "Come on, the book is fantasy! And it's a damn good read. I'd like the government to issue a statement of support for our teachers and librarians, so kids can enjoy good books without interference from religious wackos, like Christians."
[Accept]
The Government Position
The government has yet to formalize a position on this issue.

If you wish, you may simply dismiss this issue.

Cutting Off Sex Offenders?
The Issue

After the capture and trial of notorious rapist Henry Taiden, who was convicted of the rape of over 50 women in the past two years a debate has emerged on how he should be punished.
The Debate

1. "That psychopath should be castrated!" cries rape victim Gregory McGuffin, "The agony he put me through must be punished with a means that will ensure that no human being will ever go through what I did! If castration is used more often in these cases you will see rape drop to nothing!"
[Accept]

2. "I understand that this is a terrible time for the poor victims in this case," says defense attorney Roger Winters, "However, the answer is not to revert back to the dark ages. Instead, we should focus on rehabilitation of all criminals in our prison system."
[Accept]

3. "Everyone knows re-education is a waste of money, we shouldn't go soft on these crooks!" says CEO Jean-Paul Rifkin of the People Trading Corporation. "Simply place all rapists and criminals in Zazzizi into forced labor under the management of our company to serve out their sentences. When we're through with them, they won't even think of jaywalking, much less harming another person. We get cheap labor, and these crooks get put straight. Everybody benefits... well, except the crooks."
[Accept]

quote:

The Issue

Big business, fed up with over-regulation in Zazzizi, are heading offshore in ever-increasing numbers.
The Debate

1. "Good riddance!" says noted environmentalist Chastity Johnson. "Sniff that air! It's never been so clean! At last, our society is freeing itself from the consumer death-trap! I say it's time to take the final step and outlaw capitalism once and for all!"
[Accept]

2. "This is a catastrophe waiting to happen," says the Chamber of Commerce. "Think of the consequences! Without big business, where do the jobs come from? Where do we get our medicine? Our cars? Our latest fashions? There are dozens of useless regulations the government could abolish today to make life easier for commerce, and it's high time they did."

The Issue

After claims of two-headed homos being seen near the numerous landfills of Zazzizi, there have been calls for the government to act.
The Debate

1. "Look at that thing!" wails famous environmentalist Tobias Jefferson, pointing at one of Zazzizi's largest dumps. "It's an eyesore, a pollutant, and a damn disgrace! What we need to do is get everyone recycling their waste! What we have left we can shoot into space in specially-made space shuttles and we'll never have to think about it again! Sure it'll be expensive, but considering the benefits to the great outdoors, I think we should consider it."
[Accept]

2. "Ah, the expense!" moans Max Bush, government economist. "Do you have any idea what that would cost?! A much better way of dealing with this waste is to burn it and use the energy it produces to power Zazzizi's big cities. There may be a few side-effects on the environment, but with all the cheap power coming in who would care?"
[Accept]

3. "Oh come now," says Colin Mistletoe, a nearby suburbanite. "There's no need to bring all the pollution into the cities! These dumps can get a whole lot bigger you know. Just keep piling the rubbish on and we can use them as tourist attractions or something. People will flock to see how high they can climb our artificial mountains! If we run out of space, just knock down a few forests. No one will notice."
[Accept]

4. "You're all missing the real solution," argues Falala Mombota, president of the 'Zazzizi First!' society. "Why should we bother building landfills at all? I'm sure that there are plenty of less-fortunate countries out there who would be more than happy to take our litter in return for some cash."

This is the position your government is preparing to adopt.

Buy A Better Baby?
The Issue

A top fertility clinic has recently announced a new service allowing parents to create so-called 'designer babies'.
The Debate

1. "Embryo selection isn't really genetic engineering in the technical sense," explains Dr. Freddy Hamilton, owner of the Babies-2-Go Clinic. "It's more like being able to have a dozen abortions per month until you get the foetus you desire. I can't really see what's wrong with parents who can afford it being able to eliminate foetuses with undesirable genetic traits - like stupidity."
[Accept]

2. "Thou shalt pay for thy sins!" screams Prudence Clinton, waving a crucifix. "This is just meddling with the sanctity of life. If these children are to be born with horrible defects then it's God's will and who are we to question it? This technology must be banned at once!"
[Accept]

3. "This technology shows promise," muses Aaron McGuffin, minister of health. "But we can't trust the private sector with the future of our nation's children. We must place it under strict government regulation, so that we only screen out embryos with serious genetic conditions."
[Accept]

4. "This has got me thinkin'," says General George W. Christmas, thumbing through a big folder marked 'X'. "If this technology lets us reduce genetic defects, then couldn't it work the other way? We could create ourselves an army of genetically superior soldiers! With our army of Super Soldiers, no nation would dare stand in our way!"
[Accept]

Private Lab Holds Zazzizi's Sick To Ransom
The Issue

Scientists at a private medical research laboratory have announced that they have produced a drug which will combat Zazzizi's most notorious malady - Spon Plague.
The Debate

1. "This pill is the only known and unknown cure for the Spon Plague!" proclaims Professor Naki Hanover, the inventor of the cure. "But if we are to go ahead with the production of this drug, we must get some government support. We're set to make a fortune from this drug - the money we earn will help us develop even more cures for other as-yet untreatable diseases. Some people won't be able to afford it of course, but hard cheese on them: they should have got a paying job while they were still capable."
[Accept]

2. "That's a disgraceful way to think!" says equal rights activist, Steffan Hamilton. "So the people who need the most help shouldn't get any? I propose that the government subsidises the production of all drugs so everyone can benefit from them, rich or not! That way the money-hungry corporations won't profit from the suffering of the masses. Of course there will be the matter of a small tax rise to fund it - but what's that when lives will be saved?"
[Accept]

3. "I can't believe what I'm hearing," deplores well-respected religious leader, Abraham Gutenberg. "If God didn't want people to have this disease he wouldn't have created it in the first place. This is completely against the will of God and if the government allows this drug to go on sale we will all be doomed to an afterlife in a dark and fiery place! Now let's end this madness and abolish the production of pharmaceuticals and drugs altogether!"

Ornery Overcrowding Problem
The Issue

A survey recently released by the Zazzizi Housing Authority indicates that the country's burgeoning population is rapidly leading to a housing crisis as families find themselves crammed into increasingly cramped living spaces.
The Debate

1. "What we need are more high rises, whether low-cost or fancy condos," says demographic expert Buy Hendrikson. "They're efficient, waste little land, and wouldn't you love to wake up to the bright cheery sky in front of you every morning? Of course, there's the problem of higher contagious disease transmission, but I'm sure our health system is robust enough for that. Not to mention all the jobs these new buildings will bring."
[Accept]

2. "All these industrial factories take up so much space," argues social welfare commentator Colin Longbottom. "The fact is, not only do they pollute, but they hog land that is better used for low-cost housing. Studies show that apartments are just too cramped for people to be comfortable in. We would be a lot better off in simple single-floor houses. Especially if they're subsidised by the government."
[Accept]

3. "This raises an interesting issue," says Bianca Nagasawa, staunch supporter of birth control. "And that is: why do we need to build more housing anyway? Why don't we just limit the number of children each family can have? Besides, pregnancy causes all sorts of complications. We're better off with less of it anyway."

quote:

The Issue
There is a growing call within Koffemania to abolish smoking in public areas.

The Debate

1 "I'm in full support of this motion," says man on the street Billy-Bob Clinton. "I'm sick of being stuck behind smokers, sucking in their pollution! They can light up in the privacy of their own homes, if they want."

2 "What's so special about their homes?" says anti-smoking campaigner Roger Bush. "The government has a responsibility to stop people from hurting themselves -- it's the same reason we should make them wear seat belts in cars. Sooner or later, they end up in one of Koffemania's hospitals, sucking on taxpayer-funded healthcare. Not that that's why we should ban smoking. We should ban it because we care."
This is the position your government is preparing to adopt.

3 "Get your hands off my fag!" wheezes long-time smoker Dave Nagasawa. "I've been smoking for fifty years and it's never done me any harm. Helps me concentrate, it does! The government should back off on trying to tell me what I can put into my own body. Telling a smoker he can't light up in a restaurant is discrimination, pure and simple. If you want to put a stop to unfairness, stop that."

The Issue
After watching the movie 'The Fast and the Belligerent', boyracers from all over Koffemania have been petitioning for the abolition of speed limits.

The Debate
1"Today's cars are safer at high speeds than ever before," argues Alexei Summers, editor of Sports Car Monthly. "And long-distance commuters are tired of spending hours on the road just to get to the next city. Abolishing the speed limit would be great for the economy too! People would be more likely to go out and buy cars if they thought they'd be able to use them properly. It seems like such a shame to be puttering along at the speed limit in a magnificent car like the 450HP twin-turbo Pinguin SX/T-7700 you know."

2"Are you crazy?" cries Randy Broadside, a road-accident victim. "We need lower speed limits on automobiles, not higher. You might as well enforce mandatory blindfolds on the road too, it'll come to the same conclusion! People's lives are at stake here! If people were made to drive at, say, no faster than fifty kilometres per hour, I would feel a lot happier walking the streets. Besides, if it takes a long time to get places via car then people might begin using mass transit for once."

3"I think the current speed limits are fine, but we need better enforcement," says Alexei Summers, the most feared traffic warden in Koffemania. "If we required GPS tracking devices in all vehicles, we'd ticket every single speeder, no problem. In addition, we could monitor the movements of criminals and other suspicious individuals, and vastly reduce the risk of crime, terrorism, and other subversive activity. Some say that's an invasion of privacy, but if you've done nothing wrong what's there to fear?"

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it concentrates mainly on Social Welfare, although Education and Law & Order are secondary priorities. The average income tax rate is 49%, but much higher for the wealthy. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Automobile Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, and Arms Manufacturing industries.

Religious classes are compulsory for all school students, every product goes through extensive safety-testing by the government, long arduous trials are held for the most trivial of offences, and voting is voluntary. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sashonska's national animal is the cat and its currency is the euro.
