Nation Name: Moonlight Sonata
Starting Land: Ukraine and Belorussia
Population: 20 million
Government Type: Monarchy
Leader: Lycan
Capital: Kiev
Nation Color: Purple

Technology: 6/10
Economy: 5/10
Military: 4/10
Diplomacy: 5/10


Moonlight Sonata is a country permanently shrouded in moonlight due to a huge umbrella blocking the sun, and a fake moon set up in order to trick people. It is ruled by a man called Lycan, who inherited the throne from his father, and is the next in the line of thousands of years of rule from his family. The people are moderately happy, and he is no King John, they say. However, some citizens are beginning to demand that that he sets up a government in which he rules in peace with for eternity. Most of the population works in kissing Lycan's ass.

Starting Technology: Alchemy
Military: Force of highly trained bodyguards for Lycan, previously mostly ceremonial.
Economy: 400 credits to spend each turn

Starting Issues

- A businessman claims that taxes are far too high, stopping him from investing in many business opportunities.
- People have Vitamin D deficiency due to lack of sunlight.
- Denmark is suing due to the extreme similarities with their flag.

- Three major quality newspapers are planning to publish a story about the Hawks tomorrow.
- Pacifists are camping outside your government building.
- A defector has arrived from Sproutington, looking for refuge

- We need to get in front of the newspapers. Make a public announcement unveiling the Hawks as a new counter-espionage unit, showing that they have already thwarted two spies of unknown origin.
- Begin building the statue anyways. While this won't change their minds, it will make them look unreasonable and extreme to everyone else if they keep protesting.
- We don't trust outsiders. For now, we'll hold him and find out what his story is. He shouldn't be held in a prison cell, just a secured compound where he can't leave or be assassinated.

Other Actions
- Make sure there are proper safety procedures set up for all parts of the satellite's construction and that all the workers are trained with safety in mind.
- Tell my scientists to keep up their good work and that they will get additional resources when the postal and shipping systems are done being upgraded, and when the satellite is finished.
- Have Stephen Hawking give an inspirational speech celebrating the low unemployment rate and touting the importance of unity of all Technicans.
- Find out who is trying to antagonize Sproutington and what they are upset about (Talking about the helicopter people from his issues).
- Decline the alliance offer from WeLikeGodSoWeWin. Our situation at home doesn't allow us to form military alliances with foreign powers with unknown intentions.
- My embassy offer includes the new nations.

I see complexity level possibly becoming a problem for the game.

Nation name: Azeroth
Population: 5 million
Government type: Dictatorship
Leader/Head of State: Grom Hellscream
Capital: Rome(?)
Starting Land: Italy
National Colour: lust (it's sort of like crimson but redder)


Technology: 8/10
Economy: 7/10
Military: 3/10
Diplomacy: 2/10


Good luck!


Azeroth is a land which looks like a football boot. It is ruled by a brutal dictator with an equally brutal name, Grom Hellscream, who gained power after a coup d'etat. The economy is growing steadily due to a high amount of tourism, especially from citizens from Technica. The military is limited, but there are secret police everywhere, striking down anyway they view as a threat immediately. The land was quickly industrialised from the technology of a third world country all the way to becoming one of the world's greatest technological powers, hosting a festival every year celebrating this.

Starting technology: Satellites, Mechs
Military: Secret Police
Economy: 600 credits per day

Starting Issues

- People are demanding to separate from the South due to the South being extremely lazy.
- Grom Hellscream has had his portrait painted with a Hitler moustache.
- A Technica citizen has killed three of your citizens in a fatal drunk-driving car crash.

Nation name: Yugnation
Population: 11,111,111
Government type: Democracy (Mixed member proportional)
Leader/Head of State: Bob Dee
Capital: Tallinn
Starting Land: Estonia and Latvia
National Colour: Dark Camo Green

Technology: 5/10
Economy: 2/10
Military: 3/10
Diplomacy: 10/10


Yugnation is a frosty area full of six-toed heathens. It shares many of the democratic tendencies of its Scandinavian cousins, using MMP to elect it's president. Most of the population work in the IT industry, however there is a huge wealth gap. It specialises in having some of the best diplomats in the entire world, and getting pretty much whatever it wants at any kind of international conference.

Starting Technology: Super Computers
Military: Small elite force of anti-Terrorist troops
Economy: 100 credits to spend a turn

Starting Issues

- Estonians are being mean to Latvians, say that all Latvians have six-toes.
- Pagans are demanding that you burn down all monotheistic religious buildings.
- Bob Dee is calling the EANDLNP Party racist due to its policy on immigration and on immigrants.

By trade, I mean you'll actually have to get rid of your current tech, not just swap info.

Mechs are typically humanoid shaped armored war machines with machine guns for hands. They are typically much larger than an ordinary person and are piloted by a single person.
Ninja'd
Or that.

JEEEEAAALLLOUUUS OF YOU SHOS!!! No matter! I can see this becoming overwhelming like your previous games Flashmarsh, so you might want to limit joining players soon. Just friendly advice.
Quote:
- People are complaining about the similarity of your nation colour the The Heads of NASA's.
- WeLoveGodSoWeWin are demanding that you hand over money stored in a bank based in your country deposited by a pickpocket they freed who is now hiding in Guatemala.
- Threats have been issued to the Zoltar Machine about breaking his glass.

- Change official color to a dark foresty green. It was really only a formality to begin with.
- That's their own problem. The point of putting money in the bank is to keep it there. The pickpocket is free to withdraw it at any time. If WeLoveGodSoWeWin wants it so badly, they can come and try to get it. Don't churches make like a crapton of money from offerings to begin with?
- Make glass bulletproof. Tighten security.

Actions:
- Decline Snipereborn's request for embassy. No hard feelings. It'd probably get looted anyways.
- Start rumors amongest lower status folks that gold is buried in northern tip of territory. Use their excavation attempt as a Sparta-like pit to punish wrongdoers.
- Study Zoltar. Have scientists attempt to slowly start inserting AI citizens that appear manlike into population (lower functioning than Zoltar, but higher than average human).
- Abolish any and all immmigration policy. Citizens are free to come and go as they please. Outsiders from anywhere are welcome as long as they don't bring ill intentions.
- Attempt to establish monthly shuttle bus route to Denmark to keep e/immigration as convenient as possible.
- Use cloaking technology to make aerial/spacial view of country impossible.



COMING SOON: A giant meteor. Please.
Give me +karma. Give me +karma.

Starting technology: Satellites, Mechs
Military: Secret Police
Economy: 600 credits per day

Starting Issues

- People are demanding to separate from the South due to the South being extremely lazy.
- Grom Hellscream has had his portrait painted with a Hitler moustache.
- A Technica citizen has killed three of your citizens in a fatal drunk-driving car crash.  


Actions:
- Use communication satellite to accept the embassy offer. the message will contain a warning: We can all live in peace together, do not attempt to work against the government. The message will also ask to be able to place an embassy on your turf.
- Use transport satellite to examine the arms, amount of people and technology visible in the Vatican City.
- Buy torture equipment from the USA. Save the rest of the credits for the future.


Issues:
- Internal affairs: ignore those who wish to separate from the South.
- Internal affairs: publish an announcement: "Torture equipment are being brought from abroad. Flaming people in public without specifying any real thoughts will have consequences similar to breaking National Laws."
- Internal affairs: publish an announcement: "The secret Police is hunting that Technica citizen. Death penalty will be issued upon confirmation. Breaking the laws will not be tolerated".
- Internal affairs: order the secret police to find and capture that killer. Once found, execute on live TV.

- Pro-democracy protestors have set up camp nearby Reykjavik.
- The people are complaining about the policy of conscription, claiming it is stealing the prime years of their lives.
- Sa IV has been spotted at a nightclub notorious for drug usage and prostitution.

1. Allow them the space. Having democracy protests is completely fine. However, I have to be ready to strike down any violence, so prepare something for that.

2. Reply with patriotic statements about the importance of having a secure nation. Greenland, our nearest neighbor, could attack at any moment, and those high-tech people south of us could have drone strikes ordered at us. We have to be ready to strike back. For Sa!

3. Like the rest of the modern youth, Sa IV is a known drug user. This is something known and encouraged - Isaland bases a lot of it's economy on drug trade with liberal-minded nations.

Other actions:
Become a currency manipulator to increase the worth of our credits.
Accept embassy in Isaland, given that our trade relations improve. Specifically, we want to export our drugs to a wider market than our internal one.

- Send out a firm warning that any discrimination won't be tolerated. We need a secure and stable nation.
- Talk then out of it by explaining why the monotheists aren't a problem and that both can exist at the same time
- Bob Dee apologies for his harsh words and says to put it in a better way "I just disagree with their policies."

- Invest into scientists trying to further advance Yugnation's technological prowess by reserching combat robot technology.
- Begin to discuss the possibility of absorbing Lithuania into our fine nation with them, using our diplomatic skills

Letter from Bob Dee to Dalia GrybauskaitÄ— (Lithuanian President) on the matter.
