Alright... my stupid government is pissing me off a little.
When I started out crime was a problem in the great nation of Reformentia... so one day the issue comes up and I say to hire some more police.
So the police go on a recruiting drive... and crime goes down. Great, bring on the next issue...
Except they keep recruiting.
And they keep recruiting.
My police have been on a recruiting drive EVER SINCE I made that decision days ago and I can't make them stop! 28% of my governments budget is now being diverted to law and order and the maintenance of my now "all pervasive" police force!
Also... I make a decison barring corporate donations to politicians... and the next day somehow ALL PRIVATE donations have been made illegal AND all political advertising too!
Grrr... I need a more direct form of control here. My people are running amok.

The Borderlands of The Minotaur Republic
Motto: "Let them hate us, as long as they fear us."
UN Category: Democratic Socialists
Civil Rights: Below Average
Economy: Fair
Political Freedoms: Excellent
Location: The Crowbar Gulf
The Borderlands of The Minotaur Republic is a small, safe nation, notable for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, intelligent population of 12 million are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The government -- a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass -- juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Defence. The average income tax rate is 40%, but much higher for the wealthy. A tiny private sector is dominated by the Gambling industry.
The death penalty has been reintroduced, a large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, and political parties are banned from advertising and receiving private donations. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Minotaur Republic's national animal is the horned dancing cow, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the lirum.

Oh cool
Got fed up with that minorities in TV shows issue...that doesn't really concern me, I just want to make everyone in my nation feel terrible.Anyway here's my nation.
I keep the title Democratic Republic, but that's mainly for PR reasons so I can mislead the world about my despotic tendancies.
I'll probably post my details again when I get to 100 million population....whenever that happens.

Just reached 10 million:
Westemnet
UN Category: Corporate Bordello
Civil Rights: Below Average
Economy: Thriving
Political Freedoms: Superb
The Holy Republic of Westemnet is a small, devout nation, notable for its complete absence of social welfare. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 10 million are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.
The minute, pro-business government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Religion & Spirituality, and Defence. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Trout Farming, Automobile Manufacturing, and Pizza Delivery industries.
The tenet of free speech is held dear, the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, euthanasia is legal, and the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry. Crime is a major problem. Westemnet's national animal is the Falcon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the Dinarii.

hee hee, this sounds fun
Enter, the "pretty good" nation of The Republic of MarcoPolian
Motto: "We're not that bad, really"
Your mutated government officials can deliver policy changes in 20 minutes or less, or else your next ones at half price
Enter, the "pretty good" nation of The Republic of MarcoPolian
Motto: "We're not that bad, really"
Location: The North Pacific
The Republic of MarcoPolian is a tiny, devout nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape. Its compassionate, hard-working, intelligent population of 5 million enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.
The enormous government is mainly concerned with Social Welfare, although Religion & Spirituality and Education are secondary priorities. The average income tax rate is 30%. A substantial private sector is led by the Uranium Mining industry, followed by Pizza Delivery and Beef-Based Agriculture.
Crime -- especially youth-related -- is well under control. MarcoPolian's national animal is the walking stick and its currency is the doughnut.
civil rights: Below Average: i'll have to fix that
Economy: Good
Political Freedoms: Excellent

I've found a website, www.simcountry.com
It's much more involved than nation states, it is based on real market models.
You can wage war, organise business and trade and diplomacy.
Only trouble is, you have to spend a bit of time getting used to it, and some of you might find it boring.
But once you've built a strong enough economy, you can support your war ability

After a brief sojourn as a Scandinavian Liberal Paradise I'm enjoying being back to Left Leaning College State status myself...
Edit... Hey, wait a minute, I recognize that horned dancing cow. You're the Minotaur Republic! You're just the regular flavor of Democratic Socialists you imposter...

Hahaha, Powerhouse economy with 5th most corrupt government.
That's a good coporate police state for you.
I really value my GDP, I'm not going to invest in education or health, it's just business, law and order and defence for me.

The Oppressed Peoples of Kashe has now joined the Crobar Gulf region!
The Oppressed Peoples of Kashe
"Anything worth doing involves a baby and a cinder block"
UN Category: Inoffensive Centrist Democracy
Civil Rights:
Average Economy:
Strong Political Freedoms:
Very Good
Location: The Crowbar Gulf
The Oppressed Peoples of Kashe is a small, pleasant nation, notable for its complete absence of social welfare. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 8 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 small 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 7%. A healthy private sector is led by the Woodchip Exports, Trout Farming, and Furniture Restoration industries.
Voting is voluntary. Crime is a serious problem. Kashe's national animal is the cinder block and its currency is the baby.
Though you should have seen the text in an issue about paying for medical donations - something like "If they donate some blood plasma, they will be able to take home a few hundred babies" :\
