Description(as of August 05 2007)

The Rogue Nation of Agretla is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its punitive income tax rates. Its hard-nosed, cynical population of 853 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.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Social Welfare, and Public Transport. The average income tax rate is 82%, and even higher for the wealthy. An almost nonexistent private sector is dominated by the Book Publishing industry.

Only fully-fledged members of MENSA are allowed to vote, the government is cutting back on the number of political prisoners executed each year, major cities shut down as their local sports team takes to the field every day, and crime suspects are forced to submit to blood testing. Crime is well under control, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Agretla's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Crown.

History

The Dictatorship of Agretla has not been located in Rineu for very long, it started out in one of the 5 Pacific regions that all nations start in. The dictator than moved it to The Armored Alliance were it started to build in regional power, gaining 13 endorsements, one more than the current delegate, Militant Territories, and because of this, it was kicked and banned from the region...how sad...

the next move was done automatically as Agretla was sent to the The Rejected Realms Next we have the nation moving to the region of The North Pacific were it becomes politically active again, until Federation of Rineu telegrams The Adder-Head, asking him to move to his region of Rineu

He agreed and moved there, where the nation is currently striving.

At 3:30 PM EST, on May 5th, a fight broke out between the Adder-Head and the Laughing Prince on the palace grounds in Lombrica and the Adder-Head was slain(long live his soul). The new ruler decided to be a fair and just ruler. As one of his first actions, he resigned from the UN, thus becoming a rouge state.
