Early denial of HIV/AIDS and its causes resulted in HIV/AIDS reaching epidemic proportions in Greenmark, resulting in a shortened life expectancy and reduced workplace productivity. Government corruption is systematic, with nothing getting done unless it is of financial benefit to the governmental official in question. These profits have been diverted to lavish presidential palaces, yachts, and golf courses, at the expense of AIDS prevention and treatment. Government officials are rumored to be taking a substantial cut of the royalties currently being offered by the foreign national mining companies extracting lithium and other rare earth elements from the bedrock.

ORANGEA

INTRODUCTION

 

The South American country of Orangea was originally inhabited by indigenous tribes, including the Incas. However, with the arrival of the Spanish in the 16th century, Orangea became a launching point for the further colonization of Spanish America. Orangea finally won independence from the Spanish in the early 19th century, and went through a tumultuous period of political upheaval, featuring several military coups featuring a series of leftist dictators. The freely-elected democratic republic of Orangea was finally realized in the early 1980s. The conservative economic policies of the Labor Party “dynasty” that has ruled almost continuously since 1992 has lead to the emergence of Orangea as an economic success story in South America.
