NationStates is a nation simulation game. Create a nation according to your political ideals and care for its people. Or deliberately oppress them. It's up to you. Note: nearly all features on NationStates are free: purchasable items mainly cover the removal of advertisements, as well as extra features relating to the telegram system. Since these are intended for experienced users, NationStates does not meet the ‘freemium’ criteria at this time.
