Tetris L-Shaped Block
The Tetris L-Shaped Block is located in the Gameboy Tetris Cartridge, and is a practicaly unarmed but tightly controlled socialist democracy. The L-Shaped Block is ruled by an elected player- who is never seen, but the effects of his lack of checks and balances is seen throuhgt the block. The Capital City is named "Gameboy City" and was named after the cartridge in which the Tetris L-Shaped Block is contained in. It has a beautiful city and somewhat resembles moscow (incidentaly, moscow is where tetris was programed)
Tetris L-Shaped Block is a U.N. Member, but often refuses to vote due to large spread political apaty extending from the citizens to the U.N. delegates.
Tetris L-Shaped Block has traditionaly been called an "8-bit Socialist Democracy", but the U.N. has considered it a "Scandinavian Liberal Paradise" despite the nation's dissaproval of this label
FOUNDING AND HISTORY
The Tetris L-Shaped block was created when the population of an unstable (ex)nation called "The Red Free States" demanded the rights to "Be 8-bit, Float, Ignore Gravity, and spin at 90 degree angles!" Naturaly the leaders of the free state showed much scorn to the rebels, causeing a civil war. The civil war ended several years later with the Tetris Rebels fleeing the country and takeing refuge in a nearby gameboy cartridge.
Once they arrived, they found that the uninhabited L-Shaped block would make a great home, and started by building the great Tower (Below).
The Tower would stand for 200 years, untill a great war with the now destroyed nations of "Tetris R-Shaped Block" and "Led Zepplin" would cause it's destruction. The war with the previously unknown R-Shaped block would bring mass destruction to both sides, but economic prospherity to the L-Shaped block. Now in Post-War Tetris L-Shaped Block, the country has been able to forge great allyances with the nations of Asian Computer Nerds, Philanchez, and Socialist Freemen
