Your Own Country...
Archive: 8 posts
If you were given your own country, how would you run it? Would it be a kingdom? Or would you have a President approach? Would you create your own way of ruling entirely?! How would the population be: Would you only allow thoses in who payed to live there? Can anybody come and live? How would they live? Would you establish a residency before it 'opened'? Or would they have to build their own homes? How would it look? Would you create your vision of a Utopia... How would that look? Glass spheres and steel rods? the entire thing created into treehouses? An underwater palace?! But... how would they be built? would you hire people using foreign currency? Or do it yourself? Then, how would you run it? Would there be a currency, or a whole system of giving and sharing? Would the people have to have an occupation to continue living in your land? How would you deal with crime? A typical jail, or something more sinister?! Now, what of resources? Would you find/make your own, or import from other countries? A whole lot of questions... Try to answer them! Heck, include more detail if you wish - like a name & flag? | 2011-01-08 19:56:00 Author: Nurolight Posts: 918 |
Well, we did a project in English about a utopia so this is similar but i just ****ed about on that. The name of a country is the hardest question ever, well apart from choosing between your mum or dad, or your kids, I think i would call my country, The United Empire of Bagelthorn, dont sk me why, it was the first thing that came to mind. It would obviously be a democracy but it would just be boring with the whole 'evryone will be equal blah blah because thats just communism, and remember whos a communist..... Yeah im talkin about you stalin, worked well didnt it,NAAAAWTT!!!!! Back on topic there wouldnt be one ruler, there would be a coalition government government but they would be a group of people not a posh p**** and his nancy boy sidekick cleggboy to ruin the what was formerly a great country, yes, im british and i'm proud. My country will also fund its self, so its economy cant be crumbled by a ****** on wall street whojust got released on bail..... Thats alli can think of at the moment but i hope this essay somehow magics this onto my teachers desk on monday to show her that I AM NOT UNDERACHIEVING!!!!! | 2011-01-08 20:14:00 Author: Hellobob5 Posts: 382 |
If I were to have my own country... Hmmm... Name: The Republic of Hyzmania Type of government: Democracy Current ruler: President Parrakus V Location: an island somewhere near Puerto Rico Size: small Currency: the Zip. It's a currency that uses paper and coins, just like any other country, except, on our paper money, instead of famous people, we have types of animals! Mouse: 1 Zip Frog: 5 Zips Cat: 10 Zips Dog: 20 Zips Monkey: 50 Zips Panda: 100 Zips Elephant: 1,000 Zips Freedoms: Same as America, except that people are required by law to read a book for at least 30 minutes a week. Major Imports: Books! National Tree: The Palm Tree National Land animal: The Elephant National Bird: The Flying Squirrel National Sea Animal: The Blue Whale National Motto: "What could possibly go wrong?" National Song: "Satisfaction" by Benny Benassi Presents The Biz National Religion: None National Language: English, Spanish and French History: Originally founded by the Puerto Ricans and used as a colony for the insane called "Hyposanitrum" or "Normality", this colony was then taken over by the British, French and Spanish, which would turn into the "War of the Carribean." After a few treaties, the three countries decided to forget about the island. It eventually was founded as a country by Richard Marcus Parrakus for anyone and everyone. Country's Birthday: Jun 1, 1996 (called "Banana Day") Country's most famous holidays: Banana Day, MM Day Country's most famous person: DJ Burrito (Mexican radio DJ) That would be my country. Thanks for reading! | 2011-01-08 21:57:00 Author: Fail4all Posts: 106 |
Urgg I had a country once, I was overthrown by the head of the army and another member of the government. The member of government then became dictator and demoted me to religious, legal and general advisor. Then the population decresed dramatically until only the dictator and family lived there | 2011-01-08 22:36:00 Author: unXpectiD Posts: 1132 |
Last week in history class, we were learning about Greek philosophers and Plato's concept of an ideal society, which he described in his book "The Republic" really made sense to me. The gist of it is that it doesn't matter what class your born in, everyone gets the same education (I know we feel that we live in land's of "equal oppurtunity", but take a look at university tuitions and say that with a straight face!). Anyhow once you complete your education you are assigned your posistion in life based on your talents. That way, we have people in charge who actually should be in charge. In my opinion, Democracy isn't an ideal form of government because the minority is always going to feel wronged. I think the idea government would be say 20 leaders who have the best interests of the people in mind. Some other stuff about my country: Currency: None, The barter system is used exclusivly, that way no one could complain that prices are arbitrarily made up. It also does away with all that economic mumbo jumbo. | 2011-01-09 01:30:00 Author: Scifiguy Posts: 95 |
Should I dig out my civics class ISU from last semester? I don't really remember much about it, except that I would have gotten 100%, but the teacher didn't like my flag. It was a blue background, with a pink trapezoid on it. | 2011-01-09 01:57:00 Author: KlawwTheClown Posts: 1106 |
Well, my country would be called, "Mercatoria" it would be a Dictatorship/Democracy, I stay in power the whole time, but every year people vote on what mood they want me to be in, I think that is the most productive way to run things. My currency would be called Mercuys, 1 Mercuy = the price of a goat in dollars, so the cost of Mercuys depends on the current price of a goat. We also have a law that states that dogs must be kept inside, as they always leave thier excrement on the grass and outside, because there is no law that states you must pick it up. The language we speak is just english backwards with other random words in icelandic thrown in, for example, my country is awesome would be: Awesome brau? is country ostur my. That's one mighty fine country. | 2011-01-09 02:00:00 Author: Merc Posts: 2135 |
