NationStates
#88648
BioAugmentation: We are pretty big on this.
#88649
CoolBoat: Back during it's origin in the arctic, Genomita was very dependant on it's navy, so you could expect a lot of these. We have since moved on to cool {{Living Ship}}s.
#88650
GrimUpNorth: Qaura, the current homeworld of the Genomitan civisation, is a DeathWorld consisting pretty much 90% of ocean and icebergs, though the oceans are teeming with life.
#88651
HiveMind: Genomitans have a form of shared conciousness that allows them to share the thoughts, feelings and sensations of those around them without taking away their individuality.
#88652
InstantSedation: More like nigh-instant MushroomSamba. The Genomitan army is very fond of using powerful hallucinogens to take out enemy soldiers without killing them.
#88653
MushroomSamba: We have organic bullets and even artillery grenades that can do this to enemy soldiers.
#88654
OfficerAndAGentleman: Genomitan officers are expected to conduct themselves in a polite and honorable manner.
#88655
OrganicTechnology: Everything from symbiotic weapons and armor to {{Living Ship}}s of all sizes.
#88656
SuperSoldier: Pretty much all combat personell of the Genomitan armed forces.
#88657
SuperSerum / PsychoSerum: HONEY, a cocktail of combat stimms that works much like the nectar in {{Haze}}.
#88658
TranshumanAliens: By now, the Genomitans are so far removed from their human roots that the term is appropriate.
#88659
TrueNeutral: The Genomitan Government is mainly concerned with three things: The well-being of the collective, maintaining good relation with it's neighbours and
scientific progress.
#88660
UnderwaterCity: The majority of the genomitan population lives in one of these. {{Viridia}}
#88662
PoweredArmor: Nothing else suits a Marines quite like power armour.
#88663
SuperSoldier: Pretty much every single one of the Furious Fifth is grown for this purpose. Shame that most are crazy from the experience.
#88664
SpaceDoesNotWorkThatWay: They use X-rays to open FTL portals into other dimensions. {{Neo Genesis}}
#88668
CoolBoat: More like Cool Floating Fortresses. The size of ISLANDS.
#88669
NoodleIncident: The time when the Health Department came across {{Pandemic}} about the same time some one caught a flu.
Hilarity ensued.
#88670
TheFederation: of course.
#88672
NeutralGood: We try, at least. Smiting down violent anarchists with a cyborg army does quite a number to your neutrality. {{MS3049}}
#88674
AnimateDead: Resident Necromancer of gatesville. In my defense, wars are costly on human life. And zombies don't demand paychecks.
#88676
BreadAndCircuses: The leader is named "Panemes" for a reason.
#88677
CameBackWrong: The nation's leader. Also caused civil war when it happened.
#88678
CivilWar: Necromancy supporters vs. everyone else. Ended with the Battle for Plures Lamina.
#88680
DarkMessiah: Edlichbury openly accepts the dead and dying. Despite being evil, the quality of life in the empire is quite high.
#88681
DefectorFromDecadence: Resigned from the WA with the only reason being one private TG explaining that the WA's {{Holier Than Thou}} attitude and decadent attitude in the higher ranks was not meshing well.
#88682
DespairEventHorizon: Panemes getting killed. Then he came back. {{It Got Worse}}.
#88683
EvilVersusEvil: My view on gatesville vs. WA. Well, before the massacre.
#88684
IControlMyMinionsThrough: Corruption for any undead, fear for the living.
#88685
MagnificentBastard: Panemes, the leader, managed to wrest control due to his inate charisma and his loyal followers. No one knew he practiced Necromancy until his death.
#88686
MeaningfulName: While unitentional at first, Ed''lich''bury.
#88687
MoralEventHorizon: Necromancy during battle became popular after the Battle for Plures Lamina. Our neighbors were less than pleased.
#88688
StandardizedLeader: Served as a generic transitional leader for one of the gatesville splinter empires. As a leader, I pretty much did nothing important except decide who to become the next leader.
#88689
TheEmpire: Too evil to be {{The Kingdom}} or {{The Federation}}.
#88690
TheNecrocracy: Mix of I and III. Undead are common, but don't make up entire the civiliztion. However, most of the political leaders are undead as they generally are less prone to death.
#88691
VisionaryVillain: We just want to eliminate human's petty disputes by replacing them with undead. At least that way, wars won't cost as many lives.
#88692
WellIntentionedExtremist: Edlichbury might have resigned from the WA, but they will haunt you if you try to pass a false security council resolution. {{Jarmatus}}
#88694
BananaRepublic: For the first ten years or so (
from 2260).
#88695
BreadAndCircuses: Fairly adept at this, although not, strictly speaking, evil. More amoral.
#88696
ChinaTakesOverTheWorld: As a colony, Kostemetsia spoke English ''and'' Mandarin.
#88697
FalseFlagOperation: Set to be very liberal with these.
#88698
GoodRepublicEvilEmpire: Averted. More a case of Good Republic Evil Republic.
#88699
GenericistGovernment: This, to an extent.
#88700
HauledBeforeASenateSubCommittee: The inevitable consequence of using
quantumbusters, justified or not.
#88701
InfinityPlusOneSword: Theoretical field-effect quantumbuster. Not practical for millennia yet.
#88703
PatrioticFervor: Inevitable; it's a revolutionary state.
#88704
PrivatelyOwnedSociety: In the first few years after the revolution (which was orchestrated by a mercenary company).
#88705
TheRepublic: After the revolution.
#88706
LaResistance: Aforementioned (
Chaotic Good) mercenary company during the revolution.
#88707
SleazyPolitician: Thankfully averted. Most Revolutionary-era politicians served in or experienced the War and the massive CharacterDevelopment it brought on.
#88708
SlidingScaleOfLibertarianismAndAuthoritarianism: Authoritarian moderate, gradually transitioning libertarian.
#88711
BigBrotherIsWatching: Seriously, it's even implied on the flag.
#88712
CivilWar: How the current government came to power.
#88713
{{Dystopia}}: 'nuff said.
#88714
{{Egopolis}}: the capital Inchare City (formerly known as Erikha).
#88715
EvilOverlord: National Director Incharge
#88716
LaResistance: The Anogen Dys Resistance Movement (ADRM).
#88717
LawfulEvil: According to the government, "democratic hippie states" cannot maintain law and order.
#88718
MeaningfulName: Anogen Dys is an abbreviation for "Another Generic Dystopia".
#88719
PeoplesRepublicOfTyranny: If anyone actually considers Anogen Dys to be a "Free Land", then I'm calling the local mental hospital.
#88721
ShadowDictator: Ditto EvilOverlord.
#88722
SleazyPolitician: Many high-ranking government officials.
#88723
TheKingdom: This more or less defines Anogen Dys before the monarchy was overthrown in the 1982-84 civil war (despie the fact it was officially called "The Empire of Anogen Dys", it wasn't exactly much of an empire). {{Gendoikari1}}
#88725
AirstripOne: The capital city was formerly named Airstrip Zero.
#88726
BigBrotherIsWatching: Commonplace under the Protectorate.
#88727
CivilWar: 8 so far.
#88728
FalseFlagOperation: Thurask loves these.
#88729
ForbiddenZone: Vanguard Island.
#88730
FullCircleRevolution: Happened after the Communist revolution in 1936, and the anti-Communist revolution in 2010.
#88731
HeelFaceRevolvingDoor: The myriad coups, social shifts and civil wars mean that Thurask constantly changes between "benevolent social democrats/monarchs" and "asshole communists".
#88732
InternalRetcon: The former
Supreme Leader declared that Thurask had nuclear-powered trains, orbital death lasers, etc.
#88733
LawfulNeutral: At best.
#88734
NeutralEvil: At worst.
#88735
MyCountryRightOrWrong: The core of most decisions.
#88736
RebelLeader: President Fowler, formerly.
#88737
ReasonableAuthorityFigure: President Fowler, currently. @/TsundeRay
#88739
CompleteMonster: Its ruler.
#88741
CulturePolice: Much of the legislation being passed focuses on banning things like HarryPotter, concerts of any kind or any size, and
playing {{shmup}}s
on a mobile device.
#88742
DarthWiki/DethroningMomentOfSuck: What many foreigners have to say about my country. I don't care.
#88743
{{Dystopia}}: And how!
#88744
LawfulEvil: Its ruler.
#88745
MoralEventHorizon: Subverted. Having one would imply that I used to be good.
#88746
PeoplesRepublicOfTyranny: "Civil Rights" and "Political Freedoms" are as soothing on my ears as racial slurs.
#88748
TeenagersAreMonsters: #QUOTE# "Crime -- '''especially youth-related''' -- is well under control" @/AikoHeiwa
#88750
CivilWar: We had one, it was over in about six months.
#88751
{{Flanderization}}: The {{otaku}} aspect of Gandoor has suffered from this. It started off somewhat small, occasionally mentioning how the leaders of Gandoor like certain anime, or how Gandoor has an all-anime channel. Now, Gandoor has
Haruhi on it's flag, Haruhiism as it's national religion, and it's main fighter planes are F-16s with
Misao Kusakabe decorated all over them.
#88752
GratuitousJapanese: Due to Japanese being one of the four official languages of Gandoor, it's mentioned occasionally that in casual conversation, people will tend to simply insert Japanese words instead of the English/Russian/Gandoorese-English one.
#88753
HarmlessVillain: None of the leaders of Gandoor have been harmless nor villain. (Barring an {{expy}} of Joseph Stalin) But one of Gandoor's most evil policies currently is mandatory viewing of
Azumanga Daioh at 6:00 pm Gandoor Standard Time.
#88754
EvenEvilHasStandards: Gandoor's third Commander, Stefan Ivanov, who imprisoned and executed anyone who opposed him (or even mentioned distaste in his ruling), destroyed churches, synagogues, mosques, and temples, sent religious teachers to forced-labour camps, was appalled at the thought of racial superiority.
#88755
SpellMyNameWithAnS: The person mentioned in the above trope's name has been spelled as both Stefan and Stephan. This troper usually forgets which is correct. {{AvnasIshtaroth}}
#88758
SecretPolice: Shows up infrequently and issues ultimatums to utterly destroy a nation. Has power over the military.
#88762
CompleteMonster: The King.
#88764
TheFundamentalist: Ruled by one, and more or less describes the rest of the population.
#88765
LawfulEvil / NeutralEvil: Varies between the two periodically.
#88766
RecycledInSpace: It's basically a fascist state WITH ISLAM!
#88767
SecretPolice: The Imperial Guard Military Force.
#88768
SmugSnake Tropers/ChrisWWII
#88771
LawfuEvil: We like to think we're this.
#88772
StateSec: The Dominion's Judiciary is this combined with ThePoliticalOfficer for individual Justicars.
#88773
WeHaveReserves: Played straight with infantry, however subverted with tankers, pilots and naval crews. Those things are expensive goddamnit!
#88774
KillSat: The Godhammer Array is this, combined with...
#88776
GodModeSue: A particular irksome BerserkButton on the roleplay forums. No, your 5 million people can not affored 200 B-2s!
#88777
CrapsackWorld: The Dominion rules 800 million people with an iron fist, and covers an are the size of Europe. Almost a quarter of that territory is heavily polluted by industry from massive cities and factories. We are one of the weaker powers on the NationStates forums.
#88778
TankGoodness: The Dominion maintains 3000 T-666 'Mamluk' Urban Pacification Vehicles. These are massive tanks so heavily armored they can barely move more than 5 mph. The exist solely to satisfy RuleOfCool and are the epitome of AwesomeButImpractical.
#88779
GratuitousLatin: Dominion Pax Dominica -Class Battlecruisers tend to have names like this. Kipperonthefloor
#88781
AIIsACrapshoot: The AI made by the Four Unit Project, avert this trope.
#88782
AirborneAircraftCarrier
#88783
CoolTrain: Part of the railway fleet is made of british steam trains, which are arguably this trope.
#88784
{{Immortality}}: The prime minister, Sir Nigel Griffin and his friend, Spiridon both have this, sort of TYPE III.
#88785
NoodleIncident: The Christmas of 2029.
