I dont think this will keep me interested for very long. It doesn't seem to have much depth. I'm also too buy with something else - http://www.bbc.co.uk/celebdaq/.
But I made a nation anyway...
The Republic of MunkeeChum
http://www.nationstates.net/images/flags/uploads/munkeechum.jpg
"I am going to destroy you."
UN Category: Inoffensive Centrist Democracy
Civil Rights: Good
Economy: Reasonable
Political Freedoms: Below Average
Location: the West Pacific
The Republic of MunkeeChum is a tiny, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its burgeoning roving ass beast population. Its compassionate population of 5 million have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The large government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Social Welfare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 24%, but much higher for the wealthy. A small private sector is dominated by the Pizza Delivery industry.
Crime is moderate, and the police force struggles against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. MunkeeChum's national animal is the roving ass beast, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the spondulik.

I made a nation and have used my extensive knowledge of latin to make it interesting here it is,
The Dictatorship of Domitor
"Neco abnocto coeoii"
UN Category: Moralistic Democracy
Civil Rights: Some Economy: Strong Political Freedoms: Excellent
Location: The North Pacific
The Dictatorship of Domitor is a tiny, pleasant nation, renowned for its absence of drug laws. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 5 million are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.
The tiny government devotes most of its attentions to Law & Order, with areas such as Social Welfare and Commerce receiving almost no funds by comparison. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4%. A robust private sector is led by the Retail, Furniture Restoration, and Pizza Delivery industries.
Crime is a serious problem. Domitor's national animal is the aragon and its currency is the argentarius

Maybe we should make some sort of Startopia region.
The Commonwealth of Opray-Ting
"Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combinations"
UN Category: Right-wing Utopia
Civil Rights: Some Economy: Very Strong Political Freedoms: Excellent
Location: the West Pacific
The Commonwealth of Opray-Ting is a tiny, economically powerful nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 5 million are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.
The minute government, or what there is of one, is effectively ruled by the Department of Law & Order, with areas such as Social Welfare and Religion & Spirituality receiving almost no funds by comparison. Income tax is unheard of. A large private sector is led by the Uranium Mining industry, followed by Automobile Manufacturing and Trout Farming.
Crime is a serious problem. Opray-Ting's national animal is the falcon and its currency is the drachma.

Amen to the Startopia region :D
Click here to see my country, or just look below: (http://www.nationstates.net/cgi-bin/index.cgi/target=display_nation/nation=raxis)
The Dominion of Raxis
"What an Raxian sees belongs to the Raxis Dominion"
UN Category: Democratic Socialists
Civil Rights: Excellent
Economy: Weak
Political Freedoms: Below Average
Location: The North Pacific
The Dominion of Raxis is a tiny, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its strong anti-business politics. Its quiet, industrious population of 5 million are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
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 Law & Order, Healthcare, and Social Welfare. The average income tax rate is 48%, 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 Woodchip Exports.
Crime -- especially youth-related -- is relatively low, thanks to a well-funded police force. Raxis's national animal is the dragon, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the datari.

Lets post some funny countries as well:
The Empire of La Kairum
"Twist the World and Ride the Wind"
UN Category: Iron Fist Socialists
Civil Rights: Excellent
Economy: Very Strong
Political Freedoms: Rare
Location: the Pacific
The Empire of La Kairum is a enormous, economically powerful nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 736 million are ruled with an iron fist by the socialist government, which grants its people the freedom to do whatever they like so long as it doesn't involve getting richer than anybody else or challenging the government.
The tiny, corrupt, pro-business government is mainly concerned with Defence, although Law & Order and Commerce are on the agenda. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Automobile Manufacturing industry.
Scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, political activists are routinely executed, citizens can be frequently spotted going about their business stark naked, and same-sex marriages are increasingly common. Crime is crippling. La Kairum's national animal is the wolf, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the nudollar.

B4kst4br's national animal is the tiger shark, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation

and the (least) greatest nation of all!
The Incorporated States of Master_Ryan (http://www.nationstates.net/cgi-bin/index.cgi/pin=86774988/)
"Eat Beef!"
UN Category: Corrupt Dictatorship
Civil Rights: Average
Economy: Fragile
Location: Startopia
Political Freedoms: Few
The Incorporated States of Master_Ryan is a tiny, safe nation, notable for its compulsory military service. Its cynical population of 5 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, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it is mainly concerned with Law & Order, although Defence and Healthcare are secondary priorities. The average income tax rate is 50%, 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 Furniture Restoration.
Crime -- especially youth-related -- is well under control, thanks to a well-funded police force. Master_Ryan's national animal is the memau, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the energy.

Finally! Finally have time to post my two nations on here. I have started two (Maximum limit is three) succesful nations and one crappy one that's on the verge of El Revolution. The two are Aqullia (http://www.nationstates.net/cgi-bin/index.cgi/target=display_nation/nation=aquillia) and Respublica (http://www.nationstates.net/cgi-bin/index.cgi/target=display_nation/nation=respublica). Both are Democratic Semi-Capitalistic nations. Both of which, ban huge corporate industries like Microsoft and Eidos for smaller industries like Mom-&-Pop stores and individual vending machines.
Remember, we can RP on Nation-States using telegrams and the message-board, but I had their message-boards for a very good reason: Racism and such. So try to avoid posting on there if you want to avoid discrimination from some of the other players. I hope you enjoy, and remember: "Tu vivo inservio Exitium!"

The Empire of Grekka
"We are the Collective, I am the Collective"
UN Category: Right-wing Utopia
Civil Rights: Few Economy: Powerhouse Political Freedoms: Very Good
Location: Zeta Plural
The Empire of Grekka is a tiny, economically powerful nation, notable for its complete absence of social welfare. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 5 million are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.
There is no government in the normal sense the word; however, a small group of community-minded, pro-business individuals juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Commerce, and Defence. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Automobile Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving industries.
Crime is a serious problem. Grekka's national animal is the wasp, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the datarie.

The Holy Empire of Zedem
"One Nation Under God"
UN Category: Conservative Democracy
Civil Rights: Few Economy: Very Strong Political Freedoms: World Benchmark
Location: the West Pacific
The Holy Empire of Zedem is a tiny, devout nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 5 million are known throughout the region for their efficiency and work ethic, as well as their general suspicion of leisure.
The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Religion & Spirituality, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 20%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Retail, Basket Weaving, and Trout Farming industries.
Crime is relatively low, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zedem's national animal is the snake and its currency is the rubel.

Since when do the Grekka Targ have political freedoms? You better change it with some issues by making yourself a dictator.

It really depends on whether the Queen is the one who gives birth to all the Targ. If that is true, yes, she would have a humungous ass

"The fact is, the small child population is out of control," says Beef-Based Agriculture spokesperson Charles Washington. "We have to do something about them anyway, so why not market them as tasty snacks? We could have small child kebabs, small child pies, small child-on-a-sticks--the possibilities are endless! Let's not pass up this golden opportunity to provide a feast, if you will, for our economy."

The Armed Republic of Zeta Plural MkII is a tiny, pleasant nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape.

Crime is a problem. Zeta Plural MkII's national animal is the ne-ne and its currency is the credit.
