The Armed Republic of Pudnenistein is a tiny, safe nation, notable 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."
The government -- a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded morass -- juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defence, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 46%, but much higher for the wealthy. A tiny private sector is led by the Trout Farming industry, followed by Arms Manufacturing and Pizza Delivery.
Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force. Pudnenistein's national animal is the wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the dirge.

No idea what I called it.
The Republic of Soneio is a tiny, economically powerful nation, renowned for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 5 million are either ruled by a small, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.
There is no government in the normal sense of the word; however, a small group of community-minded, pro-business individuals concentrates mainly on Law & Order, although Commerce and Defence are secondary priorities. Income tax is unheard of. A robust private sector is led by the Gambling industry, followed by Woodchip Exports and Beef-Based Agriculture.
Crime is a major problem. Soneio's national animal is the dog, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the quid.
The Republic of Tall Fat People is a tiny, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its burgeoning poodle population. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 5 million love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.
The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Social Welfare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 36%, but much higher for the wealthy. A very small private sector is dominated by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry.
Crime is moderate, and the police force struggles against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Tall Fat People's national animal is the poodle, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the flamian pobblebead.
