Heh. Here is my latest. I am still trying to address the widespread environmental degradation, although most other citizens in this loose union that is my 'nation' haven't seemd too concerned.

I'm not proud about my standing in the Insurance Industry in my region, but hey, I guess I am at the bottom half (14 nationstates in my region). Universal healthcare!!! A vote for Dennis Kucinich is a vote for peace!!!

The Free Land of A Bazillion Choices is a small, safe nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 12 million hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.
The medium-sized, corrupt, liberal government 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 18%, but much higher for the wealthy. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Basket Weaving, Pizza Delivery, and Information Technology industries.
The tenet of free speech is held dear, the nation is ravaged by daily union strikes, punitive tariffs protect local industry, and the government's religious works are headed by a New Age guru. Crime is relatively low. A Bazillion Choices's national animal is the house cat, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the shiny stone.
A Bazillion Choices is ranked 8th in the region and 32,826th in the world for Largest Insurance Industry.
