Svedlat

Svedlat is a small, developing, and new nation at 1 days old with citizens primarily of Portuguese ethnicity whose religion is Islam. 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 Svedlat work diligently to produce Coal and Wheat 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. Svedlat 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 Svedlat to open new rehabilitation centers across the nation and educate its citizens of the dangers of drug use. Svedlat 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. Svedlat believes in the freedom of speech and feels that it is every citizen's 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. Svedlat will trade with other nations with questionable ethical treatment of their citizens but prefers to keep such trade agreements a secret.
