No no no, I just want our nation to be on an island. My preference on government is not a republic or communist, but I'm cool with anything else. (negative vote? whatever)

Ah okay, I was planning just to have a country in eastern europe but if enough people want an Island country i'll make it so.

Call ourselves a republic or democracy (or both), and then fix all of our elections. Also important to seem nice and resolve all our conflicts peacefully... until we're ready to pounce, that is. Even volunteer to help our "allies" every now and again. And keep our plans for global conquest as secret and surprising as possible.

Our country's name should be inconspicuous yet friendly... like Coland. Is that a good name? I have no idea. I am no name expert.

Anyway I see a potential problem. So long as one invests correctly, there is never a need to start conflicts and therefore no way to lose.

Our country's name is... dang I'll be back with this one.
So an autocracy that calls itself a republic/democracy?
I prefer a brutal, authoritative regime that brainwashes the populace but this works too.

So soon after WWII? No, not unless we expand.
Coming off of such a brutal war, the populaces of the various countries will be war-wary and unwilling to enter major conflict a third time around. We'll be able to get away with our crap for quite some time. I mean, nobody even really bothered to start fighting Germany until after they had already made it to France. Most of the world didn't find out about human rights atrocities until after the war.

And it's not like our brutal regime is racist. We beat down and brainwash all peoples, regardless of gender, race, religion, or creed.

We could be a fervent religious country who worships some wacky god, and the leader would be the pope-like prophet. That combines the best parts of brainwashing ( if you choose the right god ) and dictatorship ( you have complete control ) while still seeming fairly innocent to the surrounding nations.


Or we could just pull the same strategy I use in civilization games. Get super high tech stuff fast, and use it to entertain the populace. Our propaganda movies and such could make our nation into George Orwell's nightmare.

Thus is our master plan.
By the time people start to care it will be the 20th century and nobody will actually care.
