Ghzvhaad

= = = Ghzvhaad= = __Type of Political Economy__ = = Liberalist = = __Ways of Achieving This Economy__ = = Role of Market = = The market is vital in Ghzvhaad. It is the basis of our government. We believe that the most important part of our economy is the people, because they drive the market. With Ghzvhaad’s history of low taxes for the people, citizens are able to keep more of what they earn, and thereby have more money to spend, driving the market. The chart below illustrates the flow of Ghzvhaad’s money. = = Tax System = = Ghzvhaad prides itself on its low tax rates for everyone. Because Ghzvhaad has few social expenditures, it doesn’;t need to rely as much on the funds of hard-working individuals. = = Free Trade = = Ghzvhaad believes strongly in free trade. Because the basis of all our beliefs is on healthy competition, we think that each state should embrace its strengths and focus on exporting the resources that are abundant in their country. = = Natural Resources = = The abundant resources in Ghzvhaad are timber, glacier water, seafood, granite, and some arable land, which produces several different vegetables that are grown specifically in Ghzvhaad. = = Comparative Advantage = = Freedom Over Equality = = Ghzvhaad’s most notable ideology is its focus on freedom for individuals. Ghzvhaas believe that more attention to equality on an economic level is conducive to irresponsibility and failure. By instilling healthy competition among its citizens, Ghzvhaas strive to do their best, to provide for their families, and to be independent of the government. This result in a more or less equal environment of responsible, hard-working, independent adults with an overall higher, and well earned, standard of living. = = Minimal State Interference = = As part of the Ghzvhaas independency on the government, the government does not drastically interfere with the daily goings on of citizens, which plays into both the individual freedom and responsibility that is found among Ghzvhaas. Economically, we trust that the market will work itself out without the government having to step in and “save” the day. However, we believe that because the market has such strong balance between the people, businesses, and the government, it is extremely rare that there would ever be a need for the market to be jumpstarted. The solid flow between all branches builds off of itself, only allowing the market flow to become stronger. (see chart) = = Besides the economy, the government is a minimal part of the daily lives of the Ghzvhaas. Ghzvhaad does not impose laws that constrict the citizens’ freedom to control how their lives are run. We do not force upon the citizens laws that tell them what they can and cannot drive, throw away, who provides their healthcare, what they can and cannot be treated for, where they should spend their money, how fast they should drive, or any other basic decision that a person should be able to decide for themselves. It directly effects them, and only them, so why should someone else decide for them? = = Public Good/ Social Expenditures = = <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; text-align: center;">For the most part, public goods provided by the government are roads, school buildings and libraries, national parks, and a strong defense system. Social expenditures are limited to education and crime prevention. = = <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; text-align: center;">Central Bank = = <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; text-align: center;">For all intents and purposes, the Ghzvhaad National Bank exists to provide a common currency. Because of the dependence on the market, and the lassiez-faire approach that Ghzvhaad takes, the central bank is generally not used to control the economy. = = __Policy Process__ = = <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; text-align: center;">President = = <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; text-align: center;">Ghzvhaad has one main leader, the Maasahova, who is elected directly by the people. = = Division of Representation by Penninsulas : = = <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; text-align: center;">Viisi Maa = = <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; text-align: center;">Viisi Funf = = <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; text-align: center;">Vangea = = <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; text-align: center;">Nord-Ou-Maa = = <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; text-align: center;">Vaasahaven = = <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; text-align: center;">Each of the five peninsulas has one representative that is directly elected by the people. The five representatives make up the president’s panel of advisors, and they make all policy decisions together. However, there are hundreds of smaller representatives in each peninsula who determine the opinions of the citizens, and use that information to advise the panel when making policy decisions. = = __Rating In Comparison To the World__ = = <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; text-align: center;">GDP = = <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; text-align: center;">GINI = = <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; text-align: center;">30.8 = = <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; text-align: center;">HDI = = <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; text-align: center;">1 = =<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; text-align: center;"> = =<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; text-align: center;"> = =<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; text-align: center;"> = =<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; text-align: center;"> = =<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; text-align: center;"> = =<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; text-align: center;"> =
