Seems like the People have it! Viva la [Insert Country Name], and Glory to our Most Beloved Leader Wei Jungmin!
 
Turn 2 - "The Nation As You Know"
You are Wei Jungmin, heir to your father Wei Cai, the leader of the "most powerful nation on the globe and beyond," with the grace of the heavens themselves granting you the right to lead your people into a better future and to dominance around the globe. It is the day of your succession when you will be officially installed as the Most Beloved Leader of your nation, the day when you can finally take off the shackles from your father and be free to lead your people into a better world.

Slowly, to take it all in while you wait for your time, you take a stroll through the rather large office you will now work within to better your nation when your gaze falls to the right side of the room. In a large banner, there is the name of your country boldly written with pride by your father when he first declared his reign.

[NATION NAME]
-[] (The more ostentatious, the better.)


Underneath the name, you can see a detailed and lovingly painted map of your home, showing off every hill and river, the cities and villages dotting the landscape. Additional maps are painted to show various other pieces of information to give you a better view of what can be done in the future you envision.

[LANDMASS]
Your nation needs to be situated somewhere, right?
-[] Peninsula
You are connected to Asia via a landbridge yet have a lot of coasts to take advantage of the sea's bounty... when the Chinese allow you to.
(+Landroute to Asia
+Fishing?
+Adequate space and resources for everything
+/-Chinese Access
-Chinese Fishing)
-[] Island
You are cut off from the Asian continent by the Chinese Sea, situated south of Japan and east of Taiwan. The sea gives you unimpeded access to fishing grounds, with your Rare Metals earning your nation a good amount of money. The Chinese even stationed a few rocket batteries in your country to deter any already problematic attack! ...also, it means you have their military on your doorsteps.
(+Fishing
+Natural Defense
+Rare Metals
+/-International Waters and Trade
+/-Chinese Rockets (1990 and up only)
-Less space
-Tsunamis)
-[] Archipelago
You are cut off from the Asian continent by the Chinese Sea, situated south of Japan and east of Taiwan. However, the sea gives you unimpeded access to fishing grounds, with the abundance of your precious resource earning your nation a good amount of money. Moreover, the complex ecosystem (or what's left of it) gives you the chance to gain food for cheap, while its beauty has inspired many artists among your people! Too bad there isn't a lot of space for heavy industry.
(+Abundant Fishing
+Natural Defense
+Abundant Rare Resource (Random: Gold, Aluminum, Jewels, Diamonds, etc.)
+/-International Waters and Trade
-Little space
-Constricted Heavy Industry
-Tsunamis)
-[] Eastern Region
In the mountainous east is where your nation lays, secure from attacks with the aid of the mountains and caverns dug by your father. Too bad that the mines are the only industry you have in abundance, as the treacherous terrain makes building large structures difficult at best. Also, you are dependent on Chinese Food.
(+Natural Defense
+Abundant Mineral Feedstock Resources
+/-Mountains
-Constricted Farming
-Chinese Dependence)
-[] Northern Region
You stand above China (geographically), with vast steppes and tundra your people's home. Here you can breathe free in the wind with your trusty horse underneath you and the open steppes before you. By the way, what is "agriculture"?
(+Titanic Space
+Cavalry
+/-Decentralized
+/-Even less noticeable
-Little Industry
-Constricted Agriculture)

Looking further, you see the 24 clocks on the wall, all ticking to a timezone on the planet, with two calendars next to them. One you know as well as the back of your hand. According to it, it is the First Day of the Fourth Month in the 58th year. According to the one next, it is:

[TIMEPERIOD]
-[] 01.04.1970

Soviet Russia is a Titan of might, and with the Chinese standing, you are sure the future will be long and glorious!
(Golden Age Of Communism)
-[] 01.04.1990
Eh, at least you have one strong ally, right? You are sure the Chinese will treat you fairly, and as the equal you are!
(Soviet union falls, China stands)
-[] 01.04.2010
...frick.
(If China says jump, you try to jump as high as possible.)

However, before you can get lost even more in your thoughts, the door opens, and a man steps through. Chairman Ju Ming, you know him well, and he knows you. He was the right hand of your father, and now so too will he be yours. "My Leader Jungmin," he begins, a faint smile on his usually grave face, "the-:

[GOVERNMENT]
-[] Party

Your nation is "lead/ruled" by a parliamentarian system. The people "elect" the Party, and the Party elects the Chair (Ju Ming) and the Leader (You). In truth, you tell them what to do, and they follow.
(-5 Reputation, +5 People's Opinion)
-[] Generals
You rule by the military's might and with the support of the generals and troops. So better watch out for any troubles!
(+5 Reputation, -5 People's Opinion)
-[] People
There is no difference between the People and You, at least officially. They vote for you, and you are the government. Or else.
(+/-1d2-1 Reputation, +/-1d2-1 People's Opinion)

"-are ready for your speech. I have also taken the liberty to quickly demand an update from the Department of Internal Integrity on the hunt for the traitors. What should we do with them?" He says, handing you a small folder as you both walk outside, to where the cheering masses are celebrating your inauguration and the military parade. A quick skim tells you that-:

[SECRET SERVICE]
-[] The Department managed to catch some.

Your spies are shit. No way to talk around it. You hope to Stalin and Mao that nobody wants to hurt you. Cause they can.
(+1 People's Opinion)
-[] The Department caught most.
A tolerable level of competence, room to improve.
(+3 People's Opinion)
-[] The Department got everyone before they could even leave their homes.
They are good. Not great, but good.
(+7 People's Opinion)
-[] The Department had them tagged the very moment they thought against you.
The Stasi did an exchange program with your forces back in the day!
(+15 People's Opinion)

"Ki-," you stop, a devious thought entering your mind. "Grab their families," you instruct, seeing a glimmer of approval enter Ju Ming's eyes. "Then put them into one room. Give the traitors a choice: either they die or their families. Kill those that chose to save themselves, let those that chose their families go to China." You say, a smile on your face. It grows as you emerge from the doors onto the balcony to the cheers of the people. With a wave, the cheering grows louder, and you fall into an old routine as you watch the parade of your forces. However, you cannot help but think that-

[MILITARY]
-[] It is pathetic.

You have a tiny military, with all the dangers inherent. At least your industry can focus elsewhere.
(-15 Reputation)
-[] It makes a good showing.
Not the best in the world, at least good enough to defend you.
(-7 Reputation)
-[] The Tanks are in good form today.
For your size, it is an acceptable level of military might.
(-3 Reputation)
-[] The new camo on the artillery makes a good showing.
A strong force gives you a strong showing.
(+1 Reputation)
-[] This will take a lot of time. Ugh.
The military is the #1 Employer by a wide margin.
(+5 Reputation)

And while the parade continues, and you do small talk with those Generals and Party Members loyal to you, your mind drifts off into the past and the last excursion you did. When you looked at your nation's industry and how the people thought of you and your father.

[INDUSTRY]
-[] What people need is produced by themselves or bought from China.

(-35 Reputation, +5 People's Opinion, -1 Chinas opinion)
(Light Industry - Non-Existent

There is a faint hope that you will make things better.

You can only get better than your father.
(Social Oppression - Engineered Society)
(+10 People's Opinion)

With your little introspection over, you sneak a glance at the invited over to the table to the side, where the pride and joy of your nation has been laid out. Either to enjoy or be reminded of your past and the struggles you managed to overcome to get where you now are.

[UNIQUE FEATURE WRITE IN]

-[] Stubborn Roots: The people of Guangchou are heir to the most ancient continuously practiced religion on earth. Xiwa, worship of the spirits of the land, is deeply bound to your people. Nothing - absolutely nothing - not your father, not the Chinese, not Hollywood - has been capable of suppressing its practice. On the plus side, this has made your people incredibly resilient and loyal to each other - your National identity is as permanent as the mountains. On the minus side, this does mean you have a massive cultural force to deal with, for better or worse.

I am a bit suspicious of these two options, it seems weird that we can pick whatever quality we want of our military and secret services, and that there are only benefits to picking the highest quality.
I am guessing that there are secret drawbacks to picking the best quality, like for the military, it does say that the military is the biggest employer in our country, in other words it will mean dedication a large portion of our economy to the military.
I am a bit more unsure, what the drawback to the secret service might be, but again it probably is rather expensive.
