The Largest Perfect Democracy in History

Ironland is a micronation based around flat iron statue that has rapidly gained a following of over 100,000 citizens.

Recently, we held an election to determine the official color of our emblem. Unlike traditional voting methods such as first-past-the-post or runoff elections, we opted for what we call a "perfect democracy." In this system, every citizen's vote truly counts. Each individual voted for their preferred color, and instead of simply selecting the most popular choice, we calculated the average color based on all votes. This innovative approach ensured that the final color represents the collective preference of every citizen, creating a truly democratic outcome.

The result was a unique shade that embodies the diverse tastes and preferences of our entire population. This emblem color, now featured on our 'perfect democracy tee,' symbolizes our commitment to inclusivity and the power of every single vote.

The hex code for the average shade of every citizen's vote is: #887374. Also, I was researching how many voters there were in Ancient Athens, and out of a couple hundred thousands residents, only ~40, 000 men had civil rights to vote. Making Ironland 2x larger than ancient Greek democracy. 😎

ngl the colour of the emblem actually looks like the colour of the statue which is cool

As an ironland citizen and a design studio owner we would like to make the iron land website for our nation.

How ironic that I got it right after the US presidential elections were held

I think that this is the best “youtube series” and channel at the moment, it’s extremely creative, interesting, educational and interactive and just blows my mind that people are really getting into it and taking part. Keep up the great work

[GiantProcrastiNation]

I'm not a citizen of ironland but it is nice to see you guys growing

[DelbertTritsch]

What an ingenious way to demonstrate the reality that no one gets what they want in a perfect democracy.

"Weathered Brick Tone" was such a great debut album from Ironland, can't wait to hear their follow-up work.

After hearing the perfect democracy part, my head immediately thinks this is gonna turn into managed democracy

[The_Enclave]

Its an honor to be part of such great country with you all.. God bless the Enclave, and god bless Ironland!!

[littlejack]

If by perfect democracy you mean "encourage everyone to vote for an extreme to shift the average in their favor" then your right, its perfect.

[Sushhsusjsj]

I feel like this is a really good demonstration of why perfect democracy isn’t possible because when you try to give everyone what they want, no one get’s what they want

[StoicAtol]

I genuinely enjoy that color more than any of the individual ones

[YurLocalHuman]

Nobody got the colour they wanted, so you are a brilliant politician

[bruhchannel]

I think the brick tone compliments the red stripes and the iron perfectly

[python]

i love being taught politics with a giant iron

[sonicwaveinfinitymiddwelle]

First time something with artificially agreed "ugly" color fits with something

[queenellie]

Ngl forgot to vote, can’t believe missed out on my civic duty

**Anthem of Iron Land**

Chorus:
Oh, Iron Land, our home so grand,
Where metal hearts unite and stand.
With circuits bright and gears that turn,
In unity, we rise and learn.

Born of dreams, with innovation's might,
Our robot mascot gleams in the light.
From humble beginnings, we boldly strive,
Guided by Romania, side by side.

We forge ahead with power and might.
With every dawn, a new frontier,
Together we conquer, without fear.

Where progress blooms and dreams explore.
With minds of steel and hearts so true,

From circuits to stars, our path expands,
For Iron Land, our cherished land.

In Iron Land, we find our quest.

Across the world, your name is known.
With courage, honor, and dreams in hand,
Forever we hail, Iron Land

Democracy is like having two wolves and a lamb decide what is for dinner.
