My nation is Discoraversalism
The Free Land of Discoraversalism "What does Discordian Universalism mean to you?"

UN Category: Civil Rights Lovefest Civil Rights:Superb Economy:Fair Political Freedoms:Superb

The Free Land of Discoraversalism is a massive, safe, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape. Its compassionate, hard-working, intelligent population of 1.495 billion hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy business types tend to view the nation with suspicion.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, liberal government stops and the rest of society begins, but it devotes most of its attentions to Education, with areas such as Religion & Spirituality and Defence receiving almost no funds by comparison. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Information Technology industry.

Children are raised bilingual from an early age, people are now classified as male, female, or genderqueer, Max Barry is this year's Miss Discoraversalism, and artists are pillars of society. Crime is totally unknown. Discoraversalism's national past time is the tit for tat, widespread deforestation is fought by vigourous genetic planting projects, and its currency is hours slaved to the machine.

Culture
Discoraversalism is perhaps best known for it's total disdain for intellectual property law.

History
The country had a frighteningly weak central government, the local school districts held more power then any other faction in the state. Historically the nation has been highly UN compliant.

UNCC
The passage of UNCC was a tourning point. Individual school districts attempted to enforce it, which sparked intra district warfare. The Enforcers (as those who supported UNCC came to be known), centralized their holding, and successfully held several districts.

Of course, their short lived efforts were doomed. In the years that have followed Enforcers movement, and resulting temporary instability have become known as the Black and white revolution.

Discoraversalism Today
The central government is a bit stronger now, but it is nearly entirely run by lawyers. The new found industry of laywers, (specialized in International Intellectual Property Law exist to provide the citizens of Disocraversalism the legal justification for not complying with UNCC.
