Our country’s colors are blue, yellow, and green. Wolf represent our country, because we have the largest population of wolf in this world. The shield represent how protection of the citizens of this country always come first. The sword and the fork represent our history. Our history was full of wars and fighting.
Motto
“One for All. All for one.”
This statements means that our people will work as one, and the all the people work to help each other.
Mission Statement
Our nation’s full name is Democratic Republic of LeWolf. This country is total democratic in every way. Our country’s primary goal is to have peace. We care about a world where human equality, liberty, and freedom can strive. Our country’s people are expect to not ask what the government can do for them, they need to ask what they can do for the government. Our country is develop from 13 different tribes back in history. Over many different revolutions, our country finally went from a divided nation into a united one. Our official country formed only 35 years ago. It was terrible at first, but in the last 25 years it changed. We found many more energy resources within our country. We have been a energy supplier for the past 20 years.

Domestic Policy
Our country is a democratic nation. The government doesn’t have much control over the economy. Economy of our nation is governed by a special sector called EOL (Economy of LeWolf) This section can take over the nation’s economy flow and turn it from a capitalism to socialism. This section listens to the Minister of Domestic Affairs, but there is a leader of this section. Our country’s population is on the rise, so there is a food problem. However the food problem is still under control which can be resolved within a couple of months. Crime rates are dropping in our nation due to the new and strict laws passed recently. The range between the wealthy and the poverty are getting smaller, but our prediction is that it won’t continue this trend for long. Citizens will have their basic freedom, and all of them will be treated equally. Freedom of speech, freedom of the press, and freedom to all are the basic ones. We expect all citizens to participate in our country’s economy. We also expect them to participate in major elections. Our nation is organized into 12 states and 4 islands. The government provides basic care for the people of the nation. The funding of the cares would be coming from taxes.
Currency and Economic Policy
Our economy will be capitalism. Government has little control over what is going on with the business. However there are some certain rules that the business have to follow. We expect each individual to participate in the nation’s economy, because with more people our economy will strive to be better. Our taxes would be uniform all out the country, however there are still some special cases. It will be twenty six percent for annual income. Our currency will be called Lay. One Lay can pretty much get you half a piece of gum.
Education Policy
There is two years of optional kindergarten, it is not mandatory but highly recommended. There is five years of elementary school. There is four years of middle school. There is three years of high school. The nine years of school is mandatory for all citizens. These policies will checked through random security.
Police and Security Policy
We have local, state, and federal forces. The local forces are made up of small police and cops. The state will have troopers who focus on bigger crimes, the interstates are also under their control. The federal police works on crimes that will affect the country both physically and economically. One of our highest branch of police is the LPD (LeWolf Police Department).
Legal Policy
Our legal issues will deal in a court. All citizens have their right to go in a court. They have the right to defend themselves against any sort of prosecution. Each local area will have at least two district courts. Then there will be one state court. Finally the highest will be the federal court, which will serve national crimes.
Health care and Public Health Policy
Our nation has both private health-insurance and a national health-insurance. The national health-insurance is for people living under the poverty line. However it is offered to regular people too, but the price will be way higher. There will be other private health-insurances also running on the market.
Agriculture and Food Production Policy
Our food production rely heavily on Territory 21 and sometimes just maybe Triangle. Our country itself on the mainland doesn’t grow food products. However our country does have the best seafood right now. Our country right now is in a bit of food crisis due to the increase of our population.
Social Security/Retirement
Generally, people retire at the age of 60~65. We will provide basic retirement money for the people and grants good social security.
Pollution
Air pollution accounts much of all the types of pollution found in our nation due to factories and industries dedicated in developing coal and oil. We are striving to develop new technologies to reduce this problem, such as promoting the use of bio-fuel. Water pollution is controlled strictly and extremely carefully because water is our most precious natural resources. Most cities rely on water to sustain themselves.
Waste
Many legislation are enacted to promote the ideas of recycling. We have some incinerators around the nation and waste disposals on some of our islands. However, we reuse waste products it we can most of the time.
Energy
Coal, oil, and water contribute to the energy production of our country. Hydro-power is highly developed since an abundant source of water disperses through our nation. We also use our energy resources to trade with other nations for food production, iron/metals, and timber.
Environment
We take a lot of care on our environment because water resources must not be polluted. Many regulations are legislated to protect water resources. Recently, air pollution is getting worse, but the government is taking actions to minimize it.
Transportation
Our transportation is highly relied on railways, including High Speed Rail, train, subways, and other terrestrial transportation. We also have numerous ports, thus containing convenient transportation on water, such as ships and boats.
Issues of Domestic and Foreign Policy
We allow immigration, but immigrants are required to go through heedful health check, identity reconfirmation, and other processes to ensure national safety. Citizens are required to serve in the military for one year. Our currency is called Lay, and one Lay equals approximately 2 NT.
Foreign Policy
Allies: Territory 21 ; Neutral Nations: Kalanji, Triangle ; Rival/Enemy Nations: Krakovc6ka
Our country is not and never will be isolationist. We may often be buffers between other nations and do our best to help allies. We won’t wage war against enemy countries unless they pose threats.
Military, Defense, and National Security
Our nation has major military bases on the east side of Mt. Iveray. We will be improving our military defense and strength over time. There are also navies on the northeast coast of our country. We do not accept any trespassers to intrude our borders. If there are any trespassers, they will be sent to the court immediately to ensure national security.
Foreign Aid
Basically, we assist allies no matter what happens - wars, natural catastrophes, diseases - unless our allies have disputes with our other allies. We will consider the most beneficial decision for both our own nation and allies. As for neutral countries, it depends on what happens. It a war happens between two neutral nations of ours, we probably won’t interfere the strife unless exceptional situations happen, such as violating our beliefs (democracy...etc.). Enemy nations are our enemies - we do not assist or provide anything for them. If necessary, wars can happen between them and us.
Borders
In general, military defense are set upon the east side of our country where our nation borders with Territory 21 and Triangle. We aren’t as concerned with Territory 21 because it’s our ally.
Introduction (Allen)
The disasters listed in ULDD are categorized into 3 different colors:
*HIGHLY RISKY*
RISKY
LESS RISKY
Section 1: *Tsunami* (Allen)
1.1 Vulnerable Geography
Another major defence is to promote natural coral reefs because they provide the same protection that breakwaters do. Breakwaters, however, aren’t aesthetically appealing and very expensive, while natural coral reef is both ecologically beneficial and boosts tourism, too.
Besides natural coral reefs, we also advocate residents to grow trees along the shores, mainly coconut trees and mangroves. Both provide additional natural protection and protect coastal areas. Mangroves can also provide food resources and local economic income.
Building up sand dunes are still in consideration. Although they can dissipate much of the power of large waves, many residents along the shores have complained about their ugliness and costs.
1.3 Education
1.4 Budget
Section 2: *Flood* (Allen)
2.1 Extensive Water Systems
2.2 Defence
Wetlands can also be advocated since they can absorb large amounts of water and increase tourism.
2.3 Education
Book clubs will also be held monthly at community centers, libraries, and bookstores that will increase the knowledge on how to prepare, escape, and survive flood of the general public.
2.4 Budget
Section 3: *Earthquake* (Allen)
3.1 Possible Moving Tectonic Plates and Mountain Ranges
It is very important to defend earthquakes as they trigger various other disasters, such as volcano eruptions, landslides, and tsunamis.
3.2 Defence
If residents allow, the government will do their best to retrofit old buildings with seismic-resistance structures and protect electrics throughout the building to lower the possibility of collapsing on account of fire caused by earthquake.
3.3 Education
3.4 Budget
Money will be invested in research, such as computer modeling to predict earthquakes. Budget will be amassed gradually, and we will balance it with the taxes our citizens have to pay. This is a democratic country. Therefore, the government doesn’t have total control over financial issues. We hope our citizens have the knowledge and awareness of the danger of earthquakes.
Section 4: Volcanic Eruption and Wild Fire (Daniel)
4.1 Mountain Ranges on the East
Geologists and other researchers are still investigating the locations of possible active volcanoes. Research have shown that many of the volcanoes are dormant, but further investigation is needed to ensure the best security and safety.
4.2 Defence
Section 5: Hurricane (Daniel)
5.1 Fortunate Landscape and Geography
It is quite unlikely that a hurricane will hit our nation due to the fact that our country doesn’t have a vast ocean around us. We have many islands that will block the formation of hurricanes. We are not investing a lot of money for hurricanes.
5.2 Defense
5.3 Education
We have a policy that all children need to attain at least the elementary school and middle school. Also for those that did not grow up in LeWolf, we have a 2 year mandatory school for them. During the school time, the students will be taught about natural disasters.
5.4 Budget
The budget will be very little for Hurricane, because it has a low risk of happening.

Ultimate Lefwolf Disaster Defence - ULDD
Introduction (Allen)
The Democratic Republic of Lewolf guarantees continuous improvements on living qualities, boosting economy, diplomatic and domestic safety, stable politics, elevating education, and many other aspects. Those are what our general citizens care about, and that is why they often complain and protest about our ULDD plan to prepare our nation against potential natural catastrophes.
In ULDD, we address various precaution plans and construction to defend possible natural disasters as good as possible. We have realized some highly threatening disasters that can obliterate our nation completely if safety precautions aren’t planned thoroughly and proper education isn’t delivered to the general public. Therefore, ULDD was written by our Head of Domestic Affairs, Mr. Louie, to propose cost effective and reliable plans against those powerful disasters.
The disasters listed in ULDD are categorized into 3 different colors:
*HIGHLY RISKY*
RISKY
LESS RISKY

Section 1: *Tsunami* (Allen)
1.1 Vulnerable Geography
According to the geographical features of our nation, approximately 70% of our cities and lands are vulnerable to the annihilation of tsunami from the west coast. Although there are some mountain ranges blocking a few coastal cities, many of our sea ports and coastal cities will be completely wiped out if we don’t defend our precious west coast carefully.
Unfortunately, our islands are even more prone to tsunami destruction than our mainland since they’re located more outwards to the sea. If they are affected by tsunamis, our nation will lose a lot of resources and wealth.
1.2 Defence
Our major defence is to establish seismic sensors in the ocean to alarm our citizens as early as possible. Although it is expensive, it is necessary to save more lives. Our people are the nation’s treasure, and we do not allow the lives of our citizens to be jeopardized.
Another major defence is to promote natural coral reefs because they provide the same protection that breakwaters do. Breakwaters, however, aren’t aesthetically appealing and very expensive, while natural coral reef is both ecologically beneficial and boosts tourism, too.
Besides natural coral reefs, we also advocate residents to grow trees along the shores, mainly coconut trees and mangroves. Both provide additional natural protection and protect coastal areas. Mangroves can also provide food resources and local economic income.
Building up sand dunes are still in consideration. Although they can dissipate much of the power of large waves, many residents along the shores have complained about their ugliness and costs.
Most defensive constructions are established on our four islands, but we put our emphasis on the west coast of our mainland since that’s where most of our cities are located.
1.3 Education
Besides establishing various defences, education is also an important element in successful evacuation plans. It is mandatory for every single school to go over evacuation training that organizes drills and simulations. Evacuation signs are also set up so that refugees can easily find the way out. Last but not lease, every staff is also required to attend a 2 week course to be trained well so that they can assist evacuation.
1.4 Budget
Since this disaster is highly risky, we put a lot of concern and budget in constructing defences and education. However, most of the money comes from people’s taxes, and our citizens aren’t happy to pay that much tax. Therefore, many governmental and private organizations have been advocating the importance in defending tsunamis as to increase the awareness of the general public.
Section 2: *Flood* (Allen)
2.1 Extensive Water Systems
One of our major resources is water, and an extensive river system disperses throughout our country westward, originating from Mt. Iveray (mountain ranges on the east side). If there happen to be storms or heavy rain, floods can occur rapidly since our rivers can be flooded easily. Unfortunately, most of our cities are located near rivers where they have easy access to water resources. When rivers over flood, our cities are extremely vulnerable, thus categorizing flood as Highly Risky.
2.2 Defence
Landslides can also be prompted when there’s heavy rain. Therefore, stabilized slopes will be constructed to halt landslides from flood conditions. Drainage ditches and an effective sewage system must be developed since these pertain not only to minimizing the effects of flood, but also affect household water usage.
Wetlands can also be advocated since they can absorb large amounts of water and increase tourism.
2.3 Education
The education on flood is quite equally important to that on tsunami as tsunamis can also caused flooding. 2 week courses will be led of environmentalists and experts from other fields to teach pupils and rise their survival skills.
Book clubs will also be held monthly at community centers, libraries, and bookstores that will increase the knowledge on how to prepare, escape, and survive flood of the general public.
2.4 Budget
The sewage system and draining ditches are already needed even when there’s no flood because they are essential to clean household water. Therefore, much of the budget will be spent on stabilized slopes. We are still finding the best way to balance the budget between disaster plannings and people’s lives.
Section 3: *Earthquake* (Allen)
3.1 Possible Moving Tectonic Plates and Mountain Ranges
Our nation is possibly located above moving tectonic plates where earthquakes are quite frequent. Also, we have mountain ranges on the east, northwest, and west side. Earthquakes can cause volcano eruptions, severe damages on infrastructure and buildings, and are extremely hard to predict and prevent.
It is very important to defend earthquakes as they trigger various other disasters, such as volcano eruptions, landslides, and tsunamis.
3.2 Defence
Research will be conducted with computer modeling that simulates seismic shocks of an earthquake to see how earthquake and the environment will behave. Seismic sensors will also be established to give population a short, early warning and possibly increasing survival chances.
If residents allow, the government will do their best to retrofit old buildings with seismic-resistance structures and protect electrics throughout the building to lower the possibility of collapsing on account of fire caused by earthquake.
3.3 Education
2 week courses and books related to earthquakes are held to increase the knowledge of earthquake of the general public. Geology and the study of earthquakes are also important subjects that students will learn, starting from sixth grade.
3.4 Budget
Quite a lot of money is invested into the disaster plans of earthquakes, just like tsunamis. We are attempting to retrofit buildings with seismic-resistance structures and build houses with resistant materials.
Money will be invested in research, such as computer modeling to predict earthquakes. Budget will be amassed gradually, and we will balance it with the taxes our citizens have to pay. This is a democratic country. Therefore, the government doesn’t have total control over financial issues. We hope our citizens have the knowledge and awareness of the danger of earthquakes.
Section 4: Volcanic Eruption and Wild Fire (Daniel)
4.1 Mountain Ranges on the East
This is one of the most important and dangerous natural disaster for our nation, due to the fact that we have a large mountain range running along the center of our country. Volcano is usually caused by earthquakes, which LeWolf suffers a lot from, that will trigger the explosion of the volcanoes. The lava of the volcano is not a big problem, because we have one of the world’s largest river flowing down from the mountain. However, volcano will causes a lot more trouble than just flowing lava. Volcano will usually causes wild fire and air pollution, which will be harder to stop than the actual volcano. Tons of debris will fly out of a volcano, and it will cause heavy damage within 200 kilometers. The debris from the volcano have the potential of attacking major cities such as Leon City, Rico Loco, Nerroro Brawl, Zorgon, and San Acracious. Not only does the major economic centers will be hit, but our military zone in the east of the mountain will suffer from the debris too.
Geologists and other researchers are still investigating the locations of possible active volcanoes. Research have shown that many of the volcanoes are dormant, but further investigation is needed to ensure the best security and safety.
4.2 Defence
Our country had long started building a giant long wall against the flowing of the lava. However this attempt had been suggested and rejected many times. It is becoming a common debate through out the country. People believe that the wall will create pollution and destroy the beautiful but dangerous mountain. At the same time people believe that it will be a waste of money to build the walls, because they believe that it will not work. So for the time being, we decided to build a very good water system surrounding the mountain with River Dirrikkirri. It is one of the best water system in all of the world. This is the defense strategy that we will use against the wild fire producing from the volcano. This water system can cover both Mt. Iveray and the Sporeed Mountains. The debris is the most dangerous part of the volcano. It has the ability to cover one of our major cities in dust. Debris can suffocate our citizens, and it can also cause heavy physical damage to both citizens and buildings. Not only does the buildings need to follow the Iveray Protection guide, they need to have at least 2 fire extinguisher in their houses. All the houses need to have adequate amount of the Lay Mask, masks that cover up the whole face. Lay masks have the ability to purify the air that is breathed in by the users. We are working on a second edition of the Lay Mask, in which the mask itself contains small amount of oxygen. There will be at least be 2 community centers within each cities, and the closer the cities are to the volcano the more centers it will have. They are very strong buildings that can withstand the toughest debris. The maxmium occupation of these centers are 25,000, and these centers have large amount of food that can support at population of 10,000 for one month. In five days after the eruption, there will be ships, planes, and many more transportation machines that will take the citizens to our islands for temporary safety.
4.3 Education
We have located many scientists up around the mountain ranges for study and prevention of the volcanoes. The currently best technology that we have is called the Tjia 350, it is a machine that measure seismic waves. With that machine, at the latest we can know that the eruption within one hours. We also invented Wang Puff, it will make the lava and the debris less harmful. Since this natural disaster is very dangerous, we require all the citizens and aliens of this country to attend schools for volcanoes. All citizens above the age of five and under the age of sixty-five need to attend this meeting at least once per year. All schools in LeWolf will have Volcano Safety class, so students don’t need to attend further classes. Most business will offer Volcano Safety class to their workers. If anyone can’t attend the classes for any purposes, the classes will be offer at the community center.
4.4 Budget
We spend at least one tenth of all our yearly taxes on natural disasters, currently 15% of that budget is going straight to volcano protection. We spend most of the money on the water system, a strong wall(if needed), and researching. Right now our main goal is to invent a better evacuation system to the islands. Section 5: Hurricane (Daniel)
5.1 Fortunate Landscape and Geography
It is quite unlikely that a hurricane will hit our nation due to the fact that our country doesn’t have a vast ocean around us. We have many islands that will block the formation of hurricanes. We are not investing a lot of money for hurricanes.
5.2 Defense
Our country believes that safety should always come first. So, we decided to pass a bill that states that all house needs to have a minimum requirement of protection which we call the Iveray Protection. They need to have all the requirements on the Iveray Protection, or else they will be fined. There will be at least two community centers around each region. In those centers, there will be a lot more protection from hurricanes.
5.3 Education
We have a policy that all children need to attain at least the elementary school and middle school. Also for those that did not grow up in LeWolf, we have a 2 year mandatory school for them. During the school time, the students will be taught about natural disasters.
5.4 Budget
The budget will be very little for Hurricane, because it has a low risk of happening.
Section 6: Drought (Allen)
6.1 Water Resource
Drought is not likely to happen because we have abundant water resources, and we receive stable annual precipitation since our nation is situated on the temperate zone. Even if we have drought, we can still get food from Territory 21. Besides, we don’t produce much food and agriculture in our nation.
6.2 Defense
We don’t put much defence on drought since it’s less risky. What we basically do is store our food surplus so that we have food if droughts really happen.
6.3 Education
Education is not as emphasized, but farmers and agricultural laborers are required to know the consequences of droughts.
6.4 Budget
Due to the fact that drought is categorized as less risky, we spend less budget on this disaster.
Disaster City
Also, here we laud a creative adolescent - LayLay, who designed a seemingly sophisticated but actually simple online game on disaster prevention. The game, called Disaster City, is now available at $9.99 and has surpassed the online simulation game, Stop Disaster, in its numbers of gamers (recently culminating to over 15 million players worldwide). This game is similar to SimCity, but your goal is to deal and defend various disasters. It’s not only entertaining, but is also educational and raises the awareness of disasters of the general public. Our nation is extremely proud to have these kinds of creative and intelligent youths and hope they become influential people to make the place a better world.

Military Expenditure (3.3% of GDP; $45,411 millions of USD)
Since our nation has a rather huge military base on the east side of Mt. Iveray, navies on the southwest, and of course, secret naval training centers on Liu Island. According to these facts, investments and expenditures on military purposes would be relatively high.
Our nation’s military expenditure includes investments on training sessions, purchase of the materials for the constructions of military forces, bases, and weapons, such as navies, aircraft carriers, tanks, and jets, and various military infrastructure.
Most of the money for military expense comes from taxes. We, of course, are aware of the unreasonable amounts of taxes that our citizens might have to pay if we do not project a legitimate plan to distribute taxes evenly. Still, we would distribute more tax revenues on the construction of public infrastructure, education, agriculture, and energy production.
Tax Revenue
37.5 % is the total tax revenue as a percentage of GDP for Democratic Republic of LeWolf. That equals to $516,375 million (USD).
Citizens of the nation are require to pay taxes for infrastructure, social security, housing, retirements, disaster protection, military expenses, and other social matters.
Economic Sectors
a) Coal and Oil Industries (Production of Energy) (51.5% of GDP)
Industries of coal and oil is the one thing that the Democratic Republic of LeWolf holds proud of. According to our recent Layla Poll, chemical engineer is the top career choice for the future students of LeWolf. Currently 96% of our Colleges and Universities have a course in oil and coal engineering. It is considered an honor to go to one of those courses. Oil mining machines can be found all around the coast of LeWolf. We have three major oil and coal factories, which are mostly located on the northwest They produce large amount of oil and coal, because we also need to supply our ally countries with our oil and coal.
Production of energy is another major production in the country of LeWolf. Coal and oil are our major resources that produce energy in our country. However, we also have large amount of water supply. Most of our water production energy are coming straight from Dirrikkirri River. We only have two dams, and we are currently working on our third dam. Some of our energy resources are traded to other countries.
b) Agriculture (5.8% of GDP)
Our land is not suitable for much agriculture or any sort of food production due to our climate conditions. We do, however, grow small amounts of plants and normal crops, and we have a couple of animals farms around St. Aapeole. Mainly we rely food production from our ally countries, such as Territory 21.
c) Services (35.5% of GDP)
I. Medical Research
Our country is not base heavily on medicine, however our country do need special medication for the mining workers. Each major mining camp has one or two hospitals located within two miles. Location of the mining camps are usually pretty isolated from the world, so we need to have storage room near the mining camps. We are also developing newer and better drugs that will allow the workers to stay longer underground.
II. Architectures/Automobiles
A lot of our major architecture developments are dealing with oil and coal. We are trying to develop a better drilling machine, because our old ones, Wawa, have a very low mechanical efficiency. Our engineers believe that Wawa has too much metal contacts inside the drill, so it will create a lot of friction. Thus, the machine will have a very low work output compare to the work input. We also acquire new inventions from Territory 21 such as cars that can carry the loads quickly. We are developing new and better storage rooms that have a protection against major natural disasters. These storage rooms will also put the oil and coal in perfect shape before use. We do make some automobiles for our country, however it is usually for the transportation of oil and coals. Our national automobile company is called the Wolf, and it specialize in making trucks. However, the Wolf do produce some family automobiles.
III. Chemistry
Most of our chemist engineers are working on developing better and more efficient oil. Recently, we developed a new and better petroleum that is ready to use in a couple of years. Since our country produces a lot of energy, chemistry is very important to our nation. Chemical substances are used for the transformation from coal and oil to energy. Even though our country’s energy factories are all working in a very high efficient state, we still believe that much improvements can be done.
IV. Computer Industries
Our country’s top computer choice right now is called the Chia. It stands for 95% of all the computers in our nation. Chia has been gaining some popularity around the world especially in Territory 21. We have been increasing our work products in order to supply Territory 21.
d) Tourism (7.2% of GDP)
Because our nation has intense protection against tsunami, the preservation and promotion of coral reefs are among the most prestigious tourism sites that visitors enjoy to view. Along with beautiful coral reefs, scuba diving, aquaplaning, and other water activities also attract a great amount of tourists due to the clean and beautiful ocean scenery.
Besides tourism on islands, we don’t have much tourism developments on our mainland due to the fact that coal and oil industries pervade our nation. However, we do preserve our precious nature near the nation’s mountain ranges. Forests such as deciduous forests are prosperous on Mt. Iveray and coastal mountain ranges on the south end.
Currency
1 dollar equals 30 Lays. The nation set standards to maintain this Lay currency on a certain level so that it doesn’t fluctuate a lot.
Rich and Poor
The disparity between the rich and the poor is a little bit above average (quite big) because many of our people are factory workers in oil and coal industries. Even so, our nation doesn’t have a lot of farmers or other agricultural workers. Therefore, the gap between the rich and the poor isn’t really big.

Please click the image above to view a clearer one so that you can see the words clearly.
Area A represents the degree of inequality between the rich and poor of LeWolf. If the inequality is above average, meaning either a great percentage of population owns a little percentage of total income or a small percentage of the population owns a high percentage of total income, the Lorenz Curve will approach the letter “B” closer.
By the way, our nation is a capitalist country, making the area of inequality larger. Also, those who occupy in computer industries tend to have greater assets and earnings.

If the inequality is above average, meaning either a great percentage of population owns a little percentage of total income or a small percentage of the population owns a high percentage of total income, the Lorenz Curve will approach the letter “B” closer.
By the way, our nation is a capitalist country, making the area of inequality larger. Also, those who occupy in computer industries tend to have greater assets and earnings.
1st Nation Crisis
I. Video Response
Fellow citizens of the Democratic Republic of LeWolf. I am the Minister of Domestic Affair. I apologize for not wearing formal clothes, due to the fact that I was informed of this horrible news while I was playing basketball. I also apologize on the behalf of the president, he is currently in Territory 21 discussing the resolution for the ongoing protest about the price of the gasoline. I am here to confirm that our national bank, the 4Ray Bank, has been bankrupted. However the government has decided to bail-out the 4Ray Bank. Our country will no go to the Safety Red Economy Zone, which limits a person’s freedom in economy. The government of LeWolf ask the people to still trust the 4Ray Bank. In order to have pass through this crisis safely, the government needs the people not to take money out of the banks. In times like these, we need to work together. God Bless!

II. Damage Assessment
The collapse our biggest national bank would cause severe impacts on the economy of our nation. Because our long term plan is to provide a bailout for the 4Ray Bank. Well, this can lead to an increase in the tax that our fellow citizens would need to pay, but it wouldn’t increase at a high percentage.
While our national bank is on the brink of collapsing, hundreds of original workers, such as bank accountants, have been purported to lose their jobs. Thousands of people are protesting against the government because they have lost their job.
Besides these damage, the liquidity of our economic system has drastically stagnated as the most important bank is no longer available to provide smooth and normal liquidity. The exchange of goods, money, and other products in the markets would be hard to implement, causing severe damages.
III. Long-term response plan
Our government will provide a bailout to support the 4Ray-Bank. Also the government will do regular checks of the 4Ray-Bank weekly instead of the monthly checks for next 3 years. The government will also provide additional job positions to compensate for the loss of the originalray Bank workers.
