Pantops

=Nation Information= Pantops is a tiny, under developed, and new nation at 1 days old with citizens primarily of Russian ethnicity whose religion is Baha'i Faith. It is a backwards nation when it comes to technology and many refer to it unkindly as a 'Third World Nation'. Its citizens pay moderately high tax rates and they are somewhat unhappy in their work environments as a result. The citizens of Pantops work diligently to produce Silver and Gems 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. Pantops is currently researching nuclear technology for the use of nuclear power plants but believes nuclear weapons should be banned. Plans are on the way within Pantops to open new rehabilitation centers across the nation and educate its citizens of the dangers of drug use. Pantops does not allow any form of government protests. Its armed police forces work quickly at "dissolving" any and all government protests. 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 Pantops. The government gives whatever is necessary to help others out in times of crisis, even if it means hurting its own economy. Pantops will not make deals with another country that has a poor history of inhuman treatment of its citizens.

=Territory= Pantops is centered around the capital city of the same name, located a few kilometers north-east of Kampala, Uganda. A map of the nation can be found here.
