I hereby declare my bedroom a republic. Equal rights for socks!
The name of my country is the people's republic of fantasy and sci-fi posters
It's population is currently 1+ a bunch of imaginary people.
The president of my country is me, and the state religion is Gaiaism

Not that one.
The only thing that it remains to ask you is what the name of the capital is. And if you'd kindly put a link on your space, Unc willing.

sorry, I was gonna put the capital, but i was interupted and pushed off the computer by my annoying little brother. It's name is
Iaun Gwelyth
I dare anyone to find out what language that is and what it means!
I'll put a link on my space, too.

Ah yes, the joy of younger siblings.
I have no idea what language that is, but I would guess Gaelic. Which variety, I have no idea.

I hereby declare my bedroom People's Republic of mad classicists and old apple cores, a safe haven for socks of all colours, textures and religious persuasion, including those with elasticated tops (most cruelly persecuted in the Roadkill household, so my spies tell me). The capital city is Sirmio, the population 1 girl, 1 cat, 3 spiders and 12 (plastic) ducks stuck upside-down on the ceiling.
There is no national anthem, but several songs may *not* be sung in this PR, on pain of gruesome torture or deportaion to the real world, whichever seems like a better idea at the time. These are:
I vow to thee my country
When I'm 64 (it makes me cry)
Anything by the Spice Girls
Anything by Kylie Minogue, Britney Spears, Bob the Builder etc. You get the picture. Bach, the Clash, and Queen are allowed.
We are, of course, a democracy (it's not much fun ruling yourself with an iron had then getting yourself assassinated, after all), however, since I am the only voter and presidential candidate, the election campaign is hardly vicious.

Congratulations Kamrad.
Socks with elastic tops are only persecuted in the Black Washing Machine of Downstairs. They find safe haven in my room.
Where are you, Unc.....

I'll modify the government details in a bit, but you're all added to the UBC now anyway

Your space is plain text, isn't it? I think if you just put the A- number of the UBC page it should come up as hyperlink. If not put the whole link.
I did it!
Researcher 185550 Posted Jun 20, 2003
Congratulations. Of course, being the president of your own people's republic, I bet you could give yourself some sort of award.

Flying Betty- Now with added nickname tag! Posted Jun 21, 2003
I hereby declare my bedroom to be the People's Republic of Draconia. It is a democratic anarchy, with me as the Grand Exalted Anarchic Leader and the capital city at Terpsichore. It has a population of one plus all the penguins that will fit. Equal rights for socks!
