Based &lt;/del&gt;on &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;these criteria, nations range from categories like ''Scandinavian Liberal Paradise'' and ''New York Times Democracy'' to ''Compulsory Consumerist State'' and ''Psychotic Dictatorship.''&amp;#160; Issues can also be dismissed, which has no effect.&lt;/del&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td class='diff-marker'&gt;+&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td class='diff-addedline'&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;

Each player begins in one of five Pacific regions and is free to move his nation into any other region at any time. Most regions have an elected leader and some are organized into complex regional governments. It is common for players to attempt to collectively &amp;quot;invade&amp;quot; another region, by entering it and seizing control.&amp;#160; There are certain rules that must be followed for invasions.&amp;#160; Nations that don't follow these rules are often deleted.&lt;/del&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td class='diff-marker'&gt;+&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td class='diff-addedline'&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;

&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class='diff-marker'&gt;−&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td class='diff-deletedline'&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;There are many multi-regional organisations set up to either organise invasions (known as raider-play by it's adherents) or to organise those who defend against raider play (which is generally referred to by defenders, as well as Max Barry, as '[[region crashing]]'). The longest lasting and largest defender group is known as the [[Alliance Defense Network]] or ADN. Other organisations include the [[Red Liberty Alliance]] (RLA, [[wp:socialist|socialist]] defenders), the [[Allied Liberation League]] (ALL), the [[Ten Thousand Islands Treaty Organization]] (TITO), the [[Emergency Auxiliary Army]] (EAA), the [[Rejected Realms Army]] (RRA), and the [[Global Liberation Army]] (GLA).&amp;#160; &lt;/del&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td class='diff-marker'&gt;+&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td class='diff-addedline'&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;

Some invaders include [[DEN II]] (formerly DEN), the [[SAOP]], and the [[Rebel States of Heleth]].&lt;/del&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td class='diff-marker'&gt;+&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td class='diff-addedline'&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;

&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class='diff-marker'&gt;−&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td class='diff-deletedline'&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;Because the current simulation is relatively simple, it has given rise to more in-depth and freeform [[role-playing]], with players using their nations' statistics to play how their nations would fare in [[international trade]], [[diplomacy]], and [[war]]. Part of the appeal of NationStates is the ability to create an unrealistic [[wp:utopia|utopia]] (or [[wp:dystopia|dystopia]]) that can be the &lt;/del&gt;subject &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;of conversation and political philosophy, without needing to worry about practical matters, like [[national defense]], that might be factors in a more comprehensive simulation&lt;/del&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td class='diff-marker'&gt;+&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td class='diff-addedline'&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
