A Revolutionary Experiment in Nationhood.

Nation Information
Quantropos is a small and new nation at 0 days old with citizens primarily of African ethnicity who follow mixed religions.

The citizens of Quantropos work diligently to produce Marble and Aluminum as tradable resources for their nation. It is a mostly neutral country when it comes to foreign affairs. It will usually only attack another nation if attacked first. Quantropos is currently researching nuclear technology for the use of nuclear power plants but believes nuclear weapons should be banned.

Quantropos 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. Quantropos believes in the freedom of speech and feels that it is every citizens right to speak freely about their government. The government gives foreign aid when it can, but looks to take care of its own people first. Quantropos will not make deals with another country that has a poor history of inhuman treatment of its citizens.

History of Quantropos
As the religious opression of the Quantuselese theocracy began to overburden the northern Congolese population, a revolutionary force appeared in the mid-seventies, overthrowing the theocracy and breifly establishing an utopian nation--Eutropos--in the jungle, roughly two miles south of the Congo River, surrounding the old temple citadel of Quantusalem.

Over the next three decades, the old theocracy slowly worked its way back in and, in late 2006, started a new revolution, establishing a completely new order. Quantropos adopted a blend of utopian ideals, modern pragmatism and religious zeal. The capital was reestablished as Quantusalem, and the old Temple became the Palace of the Revolution--residence of the leader of the nation, and assembly place for representatives bodies (when they are permitted to exist).

The National Anthem
''And did those feet in ancient time Walk upon Quantropos’ mountains green? And was the holy Lamb of God On Quantropos' pleasant pastures seen?

And did the Countenance Divine Shine forth upon our clouded hills? And was Quantusalem builded here Among those dark Satanic Mills?

Bring me my Bow of burning gold; Bring me my Arrows of Desire; Bring me my Spear; O clouds unfold! Bring me my Chariot of Fire!

I will not cease from Mental Fight, Nor shall my Sword sleep in my hand, Till we have built Quantusalem In Quantropos’ green and pleasant Land. ''
