True, but electronics wise, S. Korea is ahead. Other than that, S. Korea is more or less equal, except in certain areas for which I will concede.
Then again, my country is a bit of this and that. We believe in self-sufficiency. The only problems for us will be the random religious fanatics that pop up every now and then.

Hrm... Shroomania ought to be the largest exporter in the world. Like Germany.
This could be why modern Shroomania is like what it is, all so FUN and stuff. We want everyone to BUY OUR STUFF!

And Nikoshroom Tesla will harness that spinning cadaver to power his greatest machine! The deathray that will make war a concept too horrible to fathom!
Fuck it. Nikoshroom Tesla is a national hero, and when he grew old and senile, instead of dying alone and in poverty like ole Nikola, his fame and awesomeness would grow only further - to the point where Shroomanians would subscribe to his doctrines of Weird Science.
That's right. Once upon a time, Shroomania did have motherfucking mad scientists!
That's not even counting Shroomise Pasteur - whose experiments involved sicking rabid dogs on children!

Well, if he runs it like N. Korea, none of the people will get much of that food. Most of it ends up on his dinner plate.
EDIT: I added new stuff to my history. I might add more later, especially when I plan to touch on religion.

Shadow-Shroom can be like our version of the Battle of Britain! With the Shroomanian Air Force (SAF) dogfighting against the Shadowaffe over the skies of Shroomania!
Then you can lob V-2 rockets at us!
Then Winston Churchshroom can kick your ass
EDIT:
And instead of calling Stas' proto-country Russia, I say we call it Rodina. Rodina = Russia anyway, but it won't be THAT obvious
Rodina is a nice name.

Wait. Any war over Shadow Empire is bound to have Byzantine intervention. Sure the war might turn into one bloody stalemate, but how is Shadow Empire going to fend off armies from all points of the compass?

You have a point there. I am after all just a Duchy.
INDUSTRIAL ERA BREAKTHROUGHS:
Lighter-Than-Air Flight (Zeppelins/Balloons)
Breech-loading Cannon
Bolt-Action and Repeating Firearms
MODERN ERA BREAKTHROUGHS:
Internal-Combustion Engine
Helicopters
"GREEN ERA" BREAKTHROUGHS:
Solar Power

... that's an interesting mix.
Something about Libertarianism always bothered me. Then one day, I realized what it was:
Libertarian philosophy can be boiled down to the phrase, "Work Will Make You Free."
In Libertarianism, there is no Government, so the Bosses are free to exploit the Workers.
In Communism, there is no Government, so the Workers are free to exploit the Bosses.
So in Libertarianism, man exploits man, but in Communism, its the other way around! If all you want to do is have some harmless, mindless fun, go H3RE INST3ADZ0RZ!! Grrr! Fight my Brute, you pansy!

You could've been much bigger back then.
Maybe we could have another nation in the Old Continent to help you out. Um... who, though?
And perhaps your Great Socialist Revolution could've happened after you lost the War of the World and had Stas' nation (Rodina?) beat ass.
Shroomania will claim the following Breakthrough Technologies:
Steam Engine
Mass production techniques (including conveyor belts)
Alternating Current/induction motor/rotating magnetic fields/ and wireless communications (Nikoshroom Tesla!)
and
Airplanes (The Shwright Brothers!)
EDIT:
Maybe Byzantium and Shroomania could've worked together on radar! I mean, we would need it for the Shadow-Shroom - the SAF would need radar to intercept the Shadowaffe bombers that are coming for Shroomania!

I would be inclined to think that Shroomania and Byzantium shared many advances, all in the spirit of competition.
Yeah, we ought to be what France and Britain were in terms of competition.

I mentioned in my History that Canissia helped co-develop things like steam engines, submarines, and similar things-- it could be anything from helping to finance the work to contributing scientists, materiel, and/or research facilities to scientists who may have been working away from their native lands (perhaps because their ideas were ridiculed, or they held politically unpopular personal beliefs, etc).
