Library:Voyage to Socialist Gestachia

Socialist Gestachia, offically the People's Republic of Socialsit Gestachia is a large socialist nation with hundreds of islands. Travel to Socialist Gestachia is generally not recommended unless you are a a part a research project or a techincal working group. The goverment is extremely hostile to the hospitality industry and the wider service sector due to fears that it will premote "bourgeois degeneracy" and a service based post-industrial economy. Such hostility includes a total prohibition on alcohol, smoking, streetfood, and nightlife; as well as extreme restrictions and regulations on restaurants and hotels via building codes and zoning restrictions and a lack of tourist visas.

However, if you are able to get in and willing to put up with lackluster service and an overbearing goverment you will be rewarded with a prosperous, technologically advanced country and truly unique environments that exist nowhere else.

Get in

Getting in to Socialist Gestachia is extremely difficult if you are not invited as Socialist Gestachia does not offer any tourist visas and every visa that they do offer requires an exit visa. However it is still possible to get into the country, one of the most common ways for tourists to get in via what is known as the "museum loophole."

This involves getting an education visa via one of the museums in Socialist Gestachia. You will have request such a visa through the Ministry of State, Internal, and Interior Security, the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of External, Foreign, and International Affairs, and the museum itself. When requesting such a visa you will have to demonstrate interest and knowledge about the museum as it is the museum that will sign your exit visa. and its exhibits or else the museum will turn down your request. It is equally important to actually vist the museum as it is the museum that will sign your exit visa.

Stay safe

Your biggest danger will most likely not be from any animal, corruption, sinkness, or weather hazzard but from the secret police agencies of the Ministry of State, Internal, and Interior Security (MSIIS), and the Gestachian authorities in genreal; even the regular population is encouraged to preform civil arrests and they often exercise that right.

If you somehow get smoking devices or alochol in Socialist Gestachia and use them for example you will most likely get arrested by the People's Militia (the national police of Socialist Gestachia), the Committee on the Prohibition of Narcotics of the MSIIS/the Committee on the Prohibition of Alcohol of the MSIIS, the Committee on the Prohibition of Nightlife of the MSIIS (if you are caught at night), or even by the citizen preforming a civil arrest.
