    This one is mine :

    ----------------------------



    Name of the nation : The Republic of The Armenian Empire
    Moto: "Proletarians of the World, Unite!"
    Location: The North Pacific
    Civil Rights: Very Good
    Economy:Basket Case
    Political Freedoms: Superb


    The Republic of The Armenian Empire is a tiny, socially progressive nation, notable for its devotion to social welfare. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 5 million love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

    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 68%, 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 Arms Manufacturing.

    Crime is totally unknown. The Armenian Empire's national animal is the lion and eagle, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the dram.

    You know what I just realized? The Armenian font works on my school computer, but doesn't at home. Interesting. I can finally see your username.

    Garmir P? That's what it says?

      Red Brigade.

      As for Red Brigade's nation... I don't get the "empire" part. I thought communists were anti-imperialist.

        That's what I'd think... but I suppose that depends on how one defines the words. Marx said he wasn't 'Marxist. "Democracy" in Bushworldsms seems to mean freedom for big business to do whatever (with no regulation for human rights, environment, and so on)... so... Reread 1984, I suppose. Though that book was meant to be a warning against totalitarianism, I think this administration reads that book as a how-to book. The same story, will keep appearing, in different ways around the world, until enough people STOP it.

        http://www.thirdworldtraveler.com/Ro...est_Rogue.html (really worth reading... and pay attention to the, BUSH Jr, dates that international treaties were nulled or voided) REALLY! Read the whole thing (not too long) and think about that.

        Genocide will not stop unless enough people know enough about the history of genocide to STOP any future genocide, anywhere. Isn't it 'interesting' that the Bush administration nulled and pulled out of already signed US international treaties right away... why? (e.g., human rights, Geneva convention, international criminal court, several dozen MAJOR international treaties...) I'm quite certain Hitler would push to pull out of these, as well. International criminal court? Why pull out of that if you weren't going to murder?

        And, exactly why is it that Bush refuses to recognize the Armenian genocide?? This administration is bad. Very! bad.

        I like this site because they are concise (but, I have checked what I've read here and so far it is accurate.)

        "International Criminal Court (ICC) Treaty, 1998. Set up in The Hague to try political leaders and military personnel charged with war crimes and crimes against humanity. Concluded in Rome in July 1998, the Treaty was signed by 120 countries. Although President Clinton signed the Treaty in December 2000, he [Bush Jr.] announced that the U.S. would oppose it, along with six others (including China, Russia, and Israel). In May 2002, the Bush administration announced it was "unsigning" the Treaty, something the U.S. had never before done, and that it would neither recognize the Court's jurisdiction nor furnish any information to help the Court bring cases against any individuals. In July 2002, the ICC went into force after being ratified by more than the required number of 60 nations, including Britain, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, and Spain-Russia now having signed, but not ratified."
