Nation States
I just found a link to this really cool link over on the blog of upnorth.blog-city.com
It’s called Nation States and you get to set up your own country and govern it day by day. Each day you are sent an issue to vote on and it determines your governments position in the world. My country is called “The Republic of Amgod” (Dogma backwards, Dogma was already taken) and I rule over a “corrupt dictatorship” where the hippo is the national animal. I took my countries motto from 1984 “A boot stomping on a human face forever.”
I always do this. I would make a horrible President. When I play video games that let you choose your path in life, I always end up a dictator or ruling with an iron fist. When I played the Star Wars game I ended up being way to the Dark Side. I wonder what that says about my personality. In real time I’m all about equal rights, peace, making sure everyone is free, but in playtime I’m an evil mother fucker.
Anyway, the link is www.nationstates.net Let me know if you play. I’m going to go pick up the book by Max Berry that the game is based on. The book is called Jennifer Government.
