NBC

The NBC Commonwealth Station of NBC was aqquired by Nanakaland via a purchace in the First Age of Nanakaland. It is used primarilly as a news nation, buying up the Nanakaland National News Network (NNNN) and making it the Nanakaland NBC affiliate. The Nanakan Colonial Guard focuses much of their power defending this valuable nation as NBC and its sister nation MSNBC have no army.

National Description

National description more updated at the nation's page.

Civil Rights: Below Average Economy: Thriving Political Freedoms: Excellent

The NBC Commonwealth Station of NBC is a massive, economically powerful nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape. Its compassionate, hard-working, intelligent population of 1.812 billion enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Social Welfare, Religion & Spirituality, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 16%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing industries.

Punitive tariffs protect local industry, the mining industry is making inroads into environmentally sensitive areas, the government is seen to favor Catholics, and voting is voluntary. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is relatively low. NBC's national animal is the peacock, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the USD.

Nanakan Commonweatlh Nations

In recent years, the Nanakan Commonwealth has been restored. They are all semi-autonomous (except Nanakaland, which has full sovereignty) and some (but not all) share the currency, Nanakan. They share the same military (which is based primarilly in Nanakaland) and all Commonwealth nations follow the Nanakaland government.

The Nanakan Commonwealth nations are Nanakaland, Nanakan Labs, NBC, and MSNBC.
