The Protectorate of GNOMICON
"Beware the Gnomes, for They Will Conquer All"
UN Category: Free-Market Paradise
Civil Rights: Unheard Of Economy: Very Strong Political Freedoms: Excellent
Location: The North Pacific
The Protectorate of GNOMICON is a tiny, economically powerful nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 5 million enjoy frequent elections, which are uniformly corrupted by big-spending corporations buying politicians who best suit their interests.
The small, moralistic government devotes most of its attentions to Law & Order, with areas such as Social Welfare and Religion & Spirituality receiving almost no funds by comparison. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 3%. A robust private sector is led by the Automobile Manufacturing, Pizza Delivery, and Trout Farming industries.
Crime is a problem. GNOMICON's national animal is the black mage and its currency is the gnomibuck.

Eh, why not. Since there's no military conflict and I ain't touching those forums, I should be somewhat safe...

How could I resist picking this option?

That's one of Darth Fanboy's nations. I have thirteen nations, only one of which(Adumar) is in SDnet.

I Co-own Leet SPeak with a lady friend, appropriately named Melissa. Hence why it isn't counted as an Eizen protectorate.
btw: Adumar kicks ass.
