Actually, I said Libertarian. So it assumes that my government is run by corrupt business men. WTF? Well, at least all my stats are good and I'm in 219th place in 2 days.

Ahahaha! My Libertarian philosophy is working!
Maybe you should let people spend freely.
Now I do have quite a pickle on my hands.
Martial Lands is going to lose its auto industry.
I can either
Raise tariffs
Raise tariffs and abolish minimum wage
Don't bother
I don't want to dismiss this one.
This has an important effect on our economy. If I raise tariffs, I will get a retaliatory tariff. If I let the industry die, jobs go away. If I abolish minimum wage, that is a plus. Damn, this one is hard.

The FAQ says that your country will turn out a little weird... Personally this is also affecting my enjoyment of the game, because I can't really make the decisions I would make since the options I'm often given are poor.

I left it alone. BTW, the country: Utopian Good, is my alter-ego. I reverse all my decisions and I let myself see how it goes. Right now:
Civil Rights: Superb
Economy: Reasonable
Political Freedoms: Below Average
I'm a "Scandinavian Liberal Paradise"
The Community of Utopian Good is a tiny, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its strong anti-business politics. Its compassionate population of 6 million enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.
The government -- a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, liberal, socially-minded morass -- devotes most of its attentions to Social Welfare, with areas such as Religion & Spirituality and Law & Order receiving almost no funds by comparison. The average income tax rate is 41%, 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 Cheese Exports.
Elections have been outlawed. Crime is totally unknown. Utopian Good's national animal is the slave, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the litvi.
Utopian Good is ranked 2324th in the region and 50,054th in the world for Most Subsidized Industry.
Only 41%? I need to get that higher. I mean, I'm talking "We're going to bury you!" type government. So that means we need to nationalize industry and eliminate private wages. Ahh, utopia.

People's Republic of Utopian Evil
"Speak in Tongues or Die"
Civil Rights: Unheard of
Economy: Imploded
Political Freedoms: Outlawed.
The People's Republic of Utopian Evil is a tiny, safe nation, renowned for its punitive income tax rates. Its compassionate, cynical population of 5 million are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it devotes most of its attentions to Social Welfare, with areas such as Religion & Spirituality and Law & Order receiving almost no funds by comparison. The average income tax rate is 70%, 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 totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Utopian Evil's national animal is the severed hand, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the zunt.
My first, the Libertarian "Confederacy of Martial Lands", is doing pretty good. The "Community of Utopian Good" is struggling, like the little socialist pit it is. Economy is doing the worst. I'm planning on getting to follow the modern thought for that one, my own for Martial Lands, and just bad for Utopian Evil.

Yeah I checked Libertarian as well and it popped out a corrupt nation... What's the deal.
I made Nudity optional, neither banning it nor requiring it... so it's a non-issue, you wanna dangle, have fun.
