Nation Information
Echelon is a small, developing, and maturing nation at 61 days old with citizens primarily of Mixed ethnicity whose religion is Shinto. It is a backwards nation when it comes to technology and many refer to it unkindly as a 'Third World Nation'. Its citizens enjoy freedom from high taxation and as a result tend to earn more money. The citizens of Echelon work diligently to produce Silver and Pigs as tradable resources for their nation. The government has no definite position on foreign affairs at this time. When it comes to nuclear weapons Echelon has no definite position and is therefore considered opposed to them. The military of Echelon has been positioned at all border crossings and is arresting all drug traffickers. Echelon allows its citizens to protest their government but uses a strong police force to monitor things and arrest lawbreakers. It has an open border policy, but in order for immigrants to remain in the country they will have to become citizens first. Free speech is considered taboo in Echelon. The government gives foreign aid when it can, but looks to take care of its own people first. The government of Echelon will trade with any other country regardless of ethical consequences.
