This isn't a bad idea but, in general, it's considered that the RL world isn't a part of the NS one. And this is an encyclopedia of the NS world. Also, articles like Democracy and Monarchy include (short) lists for their own types of government. If we're to keep this, I would suggest removing all references to RL nations.

There's two sides of the discussion; I happen to subscribe to the side that says that a lot of the NS countries present today couldn't have been formed without other RL nations (the USSR, the UK, etc.). Might I inquire as to what needs cleaning up, as well? Blast 12.11.06 1439 (UTC -5)
Ah, I see. It isn't exclusively RL, however; just predominantly that way (note Pushistymistan), since I haven't sifted through the 198+ countries on here yet. Blast 12.11.06 1440 (UTC -5)
I would advocate for just having NS nations in here, with possibly for some RL examples. Ceorana was formed from Real World nations, and believes in their existence like you suggested, but that doesn't mean lists of nationstates nations should include RL nations; RL nations would dwarf the list. I'd suggest linking to the corresponding WP one. Ceoranta 19:53, 12 November 2006 (GMT)
Even with 1.6 million plus countries on NS? :/ I'm asking because I don't know the ratio of gameplay nations and puppets that don't really do anything to RP nations. Perhaps, though, the linking is a good idea; this promises to get very, very long, very, very quickly. Blast 12.11.06 1517 (UTC -5)
I say we should Remove the RL countries and link to the WP list, per Ceo. BTW, there is only are 150K living nations. the 1.6 is how many there have been altoghether, both alive and deceased. --swilatia 20:46, 12 November 2006 (GMT)
