The Free Republic of Teddymania

"When all else fails, hug teddy"

UN Category: Inoffensive Centrist Democracy
Civil Rights: Below Average Economy: Good Political Freedoms: Excellent

Location: the Pacific
The Free Republic of Teddymania is a tiny, pleasant nation, remarkable for its burgeoning boodie population. Its hard-nosed, 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 juggles the competing demands of Social Welfare, Healthcare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 26%. A very small private sector is dominated by the Information Technology industry.

Crime is relatively low. Teddymania's national animal is the boodie and its currency is the darmys.

Hurrah for the Free Republic of Teddymania!

If you get bored or overwhelmed in the Pacific, you're invited to come move to the Homestead Tropical Islands. That's where Ranamania has relocated, and my daughter and her significant other have nations there, too.

But what's a darmys?

Or what are they -- not sure of the number, there.

Hooray!

But it looks like the fellow running the website did not anticipate so much instant popularity, and he's apparently having to look for more bandwidth or a different server or whatnot.

Of course, the Darmys is worth so much compared to other currencies, that you can buy almost anything in another country just by showing the citizens one =P

Of course, the Darmys is almost priceless 8-)
