Overview
Haxxoristan is a nation featured in NationStates, obviously. It is located in Eurasia Magnus, and is a settler colony of sorts. It was founded in 1666 when a bunch of confused people who didn't know why the hell they were migrating or where wandered into Eurasia Magnus, burning and pillaging. Defeating an army sent by Wendellia to stop them at the future site of Haxxoristan City, the Haxxoristanis settled in the region, founding the Republic of Haxxoristan. In practice, however, Haxxoristan is a corporatist, quasi-fascist oligarchy, ruled by an all powerful president with a rubberstamp parliament who competes with a number of very powerful merchants for control of the country.
History
Originally, the Haxxoristanis were from a region known as Greater Suburbistan. When climate change caused the region to dessicate, turning the area into a barren wasteland, the Haxxoristanis pulled up their roots and migrated, like many other peoples before them. Wandering aimlessly, they entered Eurasia Magnus in 1666, then attempted to migrate into the region. They were repulsed a number of times by the combined military forces of Wendellia and Greater Eurasistan. However, on their fifth attempt, the Haxxoristanis managed to triumph over the Wendellians and Eurasistanis after outflanking their army and attacking from the rear. Faced with the threat of further destructive incursions by the Haxxoristanis, the Eurasia Magnus Council decided to allow the Haxxoristanis to settle in Eurasia Magnus.
Government
Haxxoristan's government is in theory a unitary republic, with a bicameral legislative assembly and stuff. In practice, it is an oligarchy. The President, who has more or less complete control of the government, competes with ambitious and wealthy merchants for control of the country. This struggle is nasty and vicious, and leads to near constant civil strife. The current President of Haxxoristan is Romulus Augustulus.
Info
Currently, Haxxoristan's population is somewhere around 6 million. The currency is the taler. The national anthem is Hail to Haxxoristan, Land of the N00bs and Home of the Script Kiddies. It consists of the preceding sentence repeated over and over many times to the clashing of sticks and metal objects.
Geography
Haxxoristan consists of the Karakalpakstan region, in western Uzbekistan, most of Turkmenistan, and northeastern Iran. Its capital is at Nukus.
Economy
Haxxoristan's economy is based on electronics, heavy industry, and an agricultural sector. The agricultural sector thrives, due to the fact that northeastern Iran has been levelled with engineering nukes and that all the irrigatable land has been irrigated using water desalinated using cheap solar electricity.
Environmental Issues
Haxxoristan has caused more environmental catastrophes than all the other members of Eurasia Magnus combined. It has tossed up an enormous cloud of toxic gases over Central Asia and has completely drained away the remnants of the Aral Sea. It is also causing the Caspian Sea to shrink at an alarming rate. The toxic gas, however, does not affect the solar energy...the greenhouse effect, the mega-greenhouse effect, in fact, causes there to be plenty of invisible light in order to heat the saline solution to power the generators.
