This being a HoMM forum, it might be fun to set up an "Antagarich" or "Axeoth" region, with appropriate nations.

"Heroes Community"? Actually, I think that's a little bland. What about Enroth, or Axeoth like Khaelo suggested?

The Dictatorship of Zsaharah
"Our cause is just"
UN Category: Psychotic Dictatorship
Civil Rights:Few
Economy:Struggling
Political Freedoms:Few
Location: The East Pacific
The Dictatorship of Zsaharah is a tiny, devout nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, 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, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it concentrates mainly on Law & Order, although Religion & Spirituality and Defence are on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 58%, 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 -- especially youth-related -- is relatively low, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Zsaharah's national animal is the scorpion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the head

Paradise on Earth
The United Socialist States of Sexica
"Workers of the world, you are united"
UN Category: Inoffensive Centrist Democracy
Civil Rights: Excellent
Economy: Good
Political Freedoms: Excellent
Location: the West Pacific
The United Socialist States of Sexica is a tiny, safe nation, notable for its complete lack of prisons. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 5 million have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The large government devotes most of its attentions to Social Welfare, with areas such as Law & Order and Religion & Spirituality receiving almost no funds by comparison. The average income tax rate is 27%, but much higher for the wealthy. A substantial private sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, followed by Beef-Based Agriculture and Gambling.
Crime is well under control. Sexica's national animal is the aardvark and its currency is the stater.

The Federation of Shiny Nickels
"These eggs may be soft-boiled, but they sure are tasty."
UN Category: Capitalist Paradise
Civil Rights: Very Good
Economy: Thriving
Political Freedoms: Some
Location: Antarctica
The Federation of Shiny Nickels is a tiny, economically powerful nation, notable for its compulsory military service. Its compassionate, hard-working population of 5 million are either ruled by a small, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.
The tiny government juggles the competing demands of Commerce, Defence, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 1%. A large private sector is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, followed by Automobile Manufacturing and Retail.
Crime is a serious problem, and the police force struggles against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Shiny Nickels's national animal is the leaping tortoise and its currency is the dollar reloaded.

Now I have one nation to use as a fascist experiment, and one to use as my own little socialist paradise:
The Republic of Terjeland
"You'll Never Walk Alone!"
UN Category: Democratic Socialists
Civil Rights:
Very Good Economy:
Struggling Political Freedoms:
Below Average
Location: Promised Land
The Republic of Terjeland is a tiny, socially progressive nation, notable for its devotion to social welfare. Its compassionate population of 5 million are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it concentrates mainly on Social Welfare, although Healthcare and Education are secondary priorities. The average income tax rate is 57%, 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 Uranium Mining.
Crime is totally unknown. Terjeland's national animal is the wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the terje.

The Kingdom of Old Canaan
"Nihil sine Rex"
UN Category: Right-wing Utopia
Civil Rights: Few
Economy: Thriving
Political Freedoms: Average
Location: Promised Land
The Kingdom of Old Canaan is a small, economically powerful nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape. Its hard-nosed, hard-working population of 8 million are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.
The small government is effectively ruled by the Department of Law & Order, with areas such as Religion & Spirituality and Social Welfare receiving almost no funds by comparison. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 3%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Trout Farming, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Retail industries.
All major public areas are watched by police surveillance cameras, nudity is frowned upon, the government is avowedly atheist, and unicorns are considered a delicacy. Crime is a problem. Old Canaan's national animal is the Unicorn, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the Coco.
Old Canaan is ranked 1st in the region and 17,165th in the world for Most Pro-Market Nations.
... sweet.

The Theocracy of Kyrithia
"Only by looking to the heavens can you find sense."
UN Category: Democratic Socialists
Civil Rights: Very Good
Economy: Fragile
Political Freedoms: Very Good
Location: Promised Land
The Theocracy of Kyrithia is a tiny, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its devotion to social welfare.

The government -- a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass -- concentrates mainly on Social Welfare, although Religion & Spirituality and Healthcare are secondary priorities. The average income tax rate is 43%, but much higher for the wealthy. A nonexistent private sector is ted by the Gambling industry.
Voting is compulsory. Crime is totally unknown. Kyrithia's national animal is the twelve-toed platypus, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the kynach.
Kyrithia is ranked 8th in the region and 114,351st in the world for Most Pro-Market Nations.

you've all just discovered this?
Check this out
The Holy Empire of Modern Atlantis is a huge, socially progressive nation, renowned for its devotion to social welfare. Its hard-nosed, hard-working population of 718 million are either ruled by a small, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Social Welfare, Law & Order, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 75%. A very small private sector is dominated by the Uranium Mining industry.
The psych wards are overflowing with transsexuals, the government helps teach children how to kill a man from six paces, citizens are encouraged to report friends, family members or co-workers who seem depressed to the government for "counselling", and almost half of the child population live rough on the streets. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Modern Atlantis's national animal is the dove, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the shell.
Modern Atlantis is ranked 11th in the region and 21,323rd in the world for Most Pro-Market Nations.

Wow ... I guess killing just isn't any fun if the government teaches you how to do it.
It's like that tactic parents use to get their pre-teen kids to quit smoking: they buy them cigarettes and smoke alongside them (ofcourse, that doesn't work but kids don't mind that their parents think it does ).
