I would make Antarctica a nation, while still following all the treaties that stop exploitation of the natural resources, Our principal export would be SCIENCE, and ice. It would have to be a benign dictatorship so that everyone followed the rules, but everyone would still have all the basic rights, considering the multinationalism of Antarctica's population. For that reason there would be no state religion also.

1. Canada and Illinois, as well as Lake Michigan.
2. Parliamentary system.
3. Free markets. moderately progressive tax-system and Central Bank is charged with using monetary policy to maximize long-term growth (as opposed to inflation controlling in EU central bank or stability control in Federal Reserve). Keynesianism is right out, and instead we adopt a monetarist approach. Tariffs are kept extremely low (if there are any at all). Property taxes are progressive and relatively high, capital gains tax is low, and income tax is low.
4. The Northern Republic of America. For-profit scientific research institutions would have a 0% tax on income, with no subsidy (incentive for companies to relocate).
5. Personal property rights, weapons ownership, free religion, free speech, voting rights, and other individual liberties.
6. No state religion.

The nation would have a very limited standing army capable primarily of defense. Military force would be supplemented through Status of Force Agreements (SOFAs), which would improve foreign relations since other countries would see us as a regional ally and trustworthy neighbor.

1. What area would you want it to occupy? A series of underground tunnels beneath the US
2. What system of government? You must prove your worth in computer military or scientific matters before you are admitted into the general population.
3. What economic system? The main worker class would be hackers who hack banks and governments nationwide and transfer the money to us
4. What would you name it? UISA United Intellectuals of Sub-America

But us native scandinavians would never let you conquer the lands of our viking ancestors.

I would like to be able to magicly raise a huge island from the ocean, so it owuld be mine, cause noone lived there before. It would be my personal property, so I guess i would be a dictator of some kind.

1. Artificial island in the Pacific Ocean.
2. Dictatorship.
3. All imports, exports and wages are handled by the dictator and his harem of secretaries. More freedom is given to transactions between citizens.
4. [I have no idea what to name it]
5. Guaranteed rights: Rights to religion and life. Besides those, everything else is a privilege that may or may not be taken or given away by the government.
6. No.
