Sorry for replying to your comment so late, but agreed. It's a good idea in theory but absolutely terrible in practice. I don't think it's really possible to have a truly communist society though, and most, if not all, of the states that have tried to do so have failed miserably.

Nice quiz! Nominated. The English Civil War was just that, though - the United Kingdom wasn't created until 50 years or so later.

Thanks! That's a good point, but I'm looking for the modern-day country. That being said, England is accepted as an answer for that question.
