NationStates

At the moment I am playing a brilliant game online called NationStates where you have to decide what to do on a daily basis! So far my country of Hawkegrad has turned into a Psychotic Dictatorship very quickly!

Come and check out

The Republic of Hawkegrad

Please do not feed the Hawks...they bite!

The Republic of Hawkegrad is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its keen interest in outer space. Its hard-nosed, cynical population of 463 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, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Defence. The average income tax rate is 100%. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising fourteen-year-old boys selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.

The police crack down on tax evaders without mercy, adultery has been made a capital offence, the sound of wooden legs echo throughout Hawkegrad after the recent introduction of the Foot Tax, and the government is notorious for leaving citizens with almost nothing from their inheritance. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hawkegrad's national animal is the hawk, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the hawkmo.

Hawkegrad is ranked 47,755th in the world for Most Avoided.
