Kurdistan, Sealand, Piratebayland, Colombizuela and Moldavia back alive again. 'Nuff said.

Abkhazia, because it's a fucking awesome name for a country.

Latveria...cuz Super-villain run autocracies are cool.

• Texas—to teach them a lesson
• California—to teach the rest of the US a lesson
• Alaska—so Palin could be president of her own country and not the US. (Yes, I know she's not a Native Alaskan)

Quebec.

I think there should be an anarchist island, just so they see how boneheaded an idea anarchy is. But that's just me.

I think there needs to be a country of Margaritaville, where you can as blind-drunk as you want, as often as you want, and no asshole will spring an "intervention" on you.

Earth.

I...I...don't understand.

Countries that would be cool to have around? In that case...Atlantis because it would be cool to have a utopia-like sea city...and Eldorado because a city made of gold sounds cool. Monstro because a civilization inside a giant whale sounds cool.

I can't remember any other cool fictional cities...

^ Rapture.

Blind Final Fantasy 6 Let's Play

Rapture sounds nice(I'd change my name to Roy and get the fire plasmid for the lulz), but I was thinking less technological and more magical.

Plus, the invisibility and scouting ability sounds fun.

I just remembered...Gensokyo. A world invented by a drunk musical genius with similar taste in girls than me, filled with lolis flying in the skies giving us a lightshow on a daily basis...paradise.

...of course Gensokyo is more like a "world" and not country...so that might not count in this thread...in that case, the Underdark sounds nice. Nothing wrong with the Underdark, nope, nothing.

The Federal Republic of Mars.

Also, Vvardenfell seems like it would be an incredibly beautiful place.

Serious answer: If you can get governments to stop being oppressive pricks and citizens to be productive members of society, there's absolutely no reason why a national border should be drawn in any particular place, and any other answer is pathetic, petty nationalism that should have been extinct a hundred years ago.

Ankh-Morpork. Yeah, I know it's a city-state, but it still qualifies as a country.

Anyone thinking of Kickassia? It's small and crowded, but...it seems to have a pretty good security.

"Every opinion that isn't mine is subjected to Your Mileage May Vary."

But Ankh-Morphork only sort-of-works because of Vetinari. Without him or Vimes, it would have collapsed dozens of times already.

...This started out serious and got very silly fast, didn't it?

Does remind me of another thread I wanted to make, though.

Oh, and the Mushroom Kingdom.

I think the direction of recent posts may be going a bit far off the original topic.

Molvania.

Well, mine was serious. I mean, we really need a new paragon of civil liberties and not being raped in airports, and I've always loved the Moldavian national anthem no matter that I really can't understand it. As for Colombizuela, it's mostly for the fun social image those two things combed together would make.

...this thread was serious? I thought it was one of those hypothetical "wouldn't it be cool if this place existed? -blissful sigh-" thread...or else I have absolutely no idea what TC meant.

But Everything Is Trying to Kill You, and you survive 2 hits of anything at most. I mean, atleast in Rapture, everyone will just come back to life in the nearest Vita-Chamber within 2 seconds of death.

Mine was also serious. I want a democratic, federal World Government guaranteeing personal freedoms, political freedoms and adequate standards of living to all human beings, and I want it ASAP.

The world will be split up into different factions called democrat, conservative, and liberal then...and they'd be at each other's throats to see who's party wins.

Eh, as long as they are "at each other's throats" in the political sense and not in the physical one that's just democracy in action.
