Yet another nationbuilder.

anyone else have the problem that they don't get the response they think they voted for? example: the issue of newspapers making crap up came up, and i chose absolute free speech, and now it says that reporters get fired for fact-checking errors, which seems more in line with option 2, "newspapers need guidelines."

 

Since there is absolute free speech, the reporters doesn't bother checking the facts, they just say what they want to say, so they get fired...?

 

The ways fo the game is inscrutable.
That should answe any further question.

No serious, I have noticed it to. It's kinda bothering from time to time.

 

How about a different kind of "nation"? Here's a chance to build your own Jurrasic Park (Sim-Park) and it even comes with some pre-loaded adventures. It's actually not bad.

Download the zip file, unpack, then follow the directions in the instructions.txt to finish installing the game. BTW: The zip file is 91 megs.

i just gave some weird cult access to archelogical digs... not sure what the results will be, but since they worshipped the Undead Little Bunny Foofoo, i couldn't resist them.

 

NO! I have made meat eating "frowned upon"!

 

Green-blue something, maybe with a bit of yellow in them, not completely yellow, that makes it seem like a darker kind of desert or pea soup.

Not that I think that I've really seen a swamp in real life, but I'm inspired by the ones in Heroes of Might and Magic 2 and 3. So something like this: http://www.fcenter.ru/img/softarticle/2 ... /30644.jpg

I am hoping for a movement to kill the National Poetry Society. I never knew they could be so painful.

 

The Empire of Grossenschwamm is a large, safe nation, renowned for its compulsory military service. Its compassionate population of 45 million are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defence, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 34%, but much higher for the wealthy. A robust private sector is led by the Retail, Uranium Mining, and Beef-Based Agriculture industries.

The government is cutting back on the number of political prisoners executed each year, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, gambling is outlawed, and Max Barry is this year's Miss Grossenschwamm. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Grossenschwamm's national animal is the dogman, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the grossmark.

Grossenschwamm is ranked 2034th in the region and 48,751st in the world for Smartest Citizens.



I told those bastards to only mine a part of the uranium deposits, not the whole fucking rainforest. Now my dogmen are dwindling.

 

The Free Land of Math Country is a large, safe nation, notable for its devotion to social welfare. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 40 million are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whoever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of the Environment, Social Welfare, and Education. 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.

Most of the military's funding goes into researching space-age weaponry, elevator music has been replaced by thrash metal played at maximum volume, the government funds large training centres to turn naked orcs into functioning members of society, and roads are often attended by round-the-clock construction crews. Crime is totally unknown. Math Country's national animal is the naked orc, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the jansons frestelse.

Math Country is ranked 740th in the region and 22,253rd in the world for Smartest Citizens.

My naked orcs beat your dogmen.

 

The Principality of Casafortia is a large, devout nation, notable for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 40 million are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company.

Crime -- especially youth-related -- is well under control, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. TelcontarConfederacy's national animal is the dragon, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the dollar.
