Considering native companies income tax is a 35%, you should be happy about it! It's almost free sales in a foreign nation, which you can provide *in exclusive* with any retail items you wish.
Plus, it could open opportunities for future agreements.
The Holy Empire of Tenabras is a small, pleasant nation, renowned for its absence of drug laws. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 7 million enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.
The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Social Welfare, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 17%, but much higher for the wealthy. A robust private sector is led by the Soda Sales, Furniture Restoration, and Retail industries.
Voting is voluntary, the nation is ravaged by daily union strikes, genetic researchers have been expelled, and it is illegal to make racist remarks in public. Crime is moderate, and the police force struggles against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Tenabras's national animal is the Kestrel and its currency is the Cross.
Tenabras is ranked 1st in the region and 3,108th in the world for Most Politically Free Nations.
Now I will retire for a bit until something else needs my negativeness.
Edit: Regional Influence: Eminence Grise
WTH is that?
Been here since Discovery 4.77 (lurk mode engaged)

He flies through half the system before going back to New Berlin, where he cruises from one side of the system to the other, hugging the sun as close as he can. All the while, he flies near Battleships trying to scrape me off. I finally send out the white flag, and move back to Sigma 13. However, it was a ruse, and he bit. Knowing his trade route, I interdicted the trade lane and the chase began anew. It ended, an hour after it began, with me retreating, out of Countermeasures and getting very irritated.
He kept boasting how he has never been caught; I'd like to see him beat until he begs to pay, then beaten some more.
Nationstates 2 DOES have war...I know, I'm in the beta. The Outcasts are approaching 500 million already.

# 14 minutes ago: Following new legislation in Dantrithor, a massive campaign is underway to ensure the race of Dantrithor remains pure.
That is step 2.
Now, if you could give me a definitive answer to the Step 1 (a.k.a. economical agreement offer). Thanks.
EDIT: "Regional Influence: Superpower". Now, think twice, or three times, before rejecting it. *Cough*
EDIT2: And look at this before taking a decision:
"They simply crossed the line!" shouts General Alexei Steele. "Far too long have we tolerated these terrorist threats, it's time that they realise they can't mess with us. Send the order to prepare an invasion, and we will show them who is boss! Our brave soldiers are prepared to die for their country, all we need is your signature and a lot of money. But what is the cost of freedom and safety for Dantrithor's peoples?"
This is the position your government is preparing to adopt.
To: Ministry of foreign affairs of the Republic of Dantrithor.
Subject: Economical friendship offer.
Office of the President of The Republic of Culebra Island
We have reviewed your generous offer and can agree to certain terms of it. Our nation with its low crime rates does not really require civilian fire arms. As you have noted our country is small and at the moment so is our military.
What we would like to purchase is military grade armament to equip our growing nation. While we have no plans to become a military power we would like upgraged hardware to defend ourselves from nations less generous and peacefull than yours.
We would be more than willing to open casinos in your great nation to spread the fun and excitment of legal gambling to the public.
Once you have responded to our changes to your proposal we will bring the matter before the senate for a vote.
Origin: The Armed Republic of Dantrithor.
Author: Ministry of foreign affairs of the Republic.
Subject: Economical friendship offer.
Destinataries:
- The Republic of Culebra Island President
The military grade weaponry was something we had thought to leave for a future time, but seeing your nation willingness to contribute to our relations, we can very well discuss it now.
We are willing to keep the agreement with, instead of civilian weapons, military grade weapons, with certain limitations:
- Only standard weapons will be sold. Our Highly-Deadly weapons are reserved for national use, and as such, can not be provided to your nation. Yet.
- We will need to build a training base on your territory. Our weapon systems differ radically from any standard weaponry your soldiers have used, and our training will ensure your soldiers will be able to repel any attack on them, should need arise. Such training facility would be guarded by our own recruits and some senior officer, so it can also serve as a external training and specialization school for our new soldiers. Such soldiers won't go further than patrol the perimeter of the base, and your trainees will be free to walk across the area.
- For now, not more than a 20% of your military forces can be equipped with our weapons. This range will be broadened, as your new recruits are trained acordingly. This is to avoid a surplus of very well equipped but poorly trained forces.

"Hello allied nations of Discovery. The Holy Empire of Tenabras
wishes to become the political bridge of our nations.
Seeing as how we're the most free nation we will lure the other nations
from other worlds into ours. Than we will show them how strong our
nations really are with mass weapons!"
