Information:

Founded in March of 2007, A World Power was once one of the largest regions in Nationstates, and is currently re-building to its former glory! We as a region hold no specific political ideology, but nations organise themselves into Great Houses of likeminded individuals. The leaders of the three largest Houses form a Triumvirate which is responsible for leading the region. We believe in open elections for all citizens of our region and operate a one of the major defender forces in the game, which protects regions across Nationstates from invasion.

UN Category: Democratic Socialists
Civil Rights: Excellent
Economy: Reasonable
Political Freedoms: Below Average
UN Member

The United Socialist States of LeEyre is a very large, socially progressive nation, renowned for its devotion to social welfare. Its compassionate population of 112 million are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Social Welfare, Healthcare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 65%, and even higher for the wealthy. A small private sector is dominated by the Automobile Manufacturing industry.

The government is making attempts at curtailing the flood of spam emails with little progress, anti-government web sites are springing up, UFO sightings are listed daily in the morning news, and children are brainwashed at a young age to accept "Love and peace!" as a way of life. Crime is totally unknown. LeEyre's national animal is the armadillo, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the plate.

LeEyre is ranked 147th in the region and 56,332nd in the world for Largest Mining Sector.

Play the Office Game
Here's a way to spice up your office. Pick two or three colleagues and agree to play the Office Game which awards points as follows:

ONE POINT

-Run one lap around the office at top speed. Walk sideways to the photocopier.
-Find the vacuum and start vacuuming around your desk.
-When they're not looking, pour most of someone's fresh cup of coffee into your mug leaving them with an inch of brew.
-Ignore the first five people who say 'good morning' to you.
-Phone someone in the office you barely know, leave your name and say "Just called to say I can't talk right now. Bye."
-To signal the end of a conversation, clamp your hands over your ears and grimace.
-While riding an elevator, gasp dramatically every time the doors open.

THREE-POINTS

-Babble incoherently at a fellow employee then ask "Did you get all that, I don't want to have to repeat it." - Double points if you do this to a manager.
-Kneel in front of the water cooler and drink directly from the nozzle.
-Shout random numbers while someone is counting.

FIVE POINTS

-At the end of a meeting, suggest that, for once, it would be nice to conclude with the singing of the national anthem (extra points if you actually launch into it yourself).
-Walk into a very busy person's office and while they watch you with growing irritation, turn the light switch on/off 10 times.
-For an hour, refer to everyone you speak to as 'Bob'.
-Announce to everyone in a meeting that you "really have to go do number two".
-After every sentence, say 'mon' in a really bad Jamaican accent. As in, "the report's on your desk, mon". Keep this up for one hour.
-While an office mate is out, move their chair into the elevator.
-In a meeting or crowded situation, slap your forehead repeatedly and mutter, "Shut up, all of you just shut up!"
-In a colleague's diary, write in 10 am: "See how I look in tights".
-Carry your laptop over to your colleague and ask "You wanna trade?"
-Repeat the following conversation 10 times to the same person: "Do you hear that?" "What?" "Never mind, it's gone now"
-Come to work in army fatigues and when asked why, say, "I can't talk about it"
-Speak with an accent (French, German, Porky Pig, etc.) during a very important conference call.
-Tuck one pant leg into your sock and when queried, answer, "not now" and walk away.
