'''Types of countries''' are harder to define than [[types of companies]].  They are more controversial.  Here are types worth discussing for anyone who wants to apply [[political consumerism]] directly to make a decision based the type of country they are buying from:


*'''Rogue state'''s defy [[international law]] on a regular basis, invade other countries, give or sell [[weapons of mass destruction]] or parts / materials, and give money to rebels inside other countries.  They have nuclear weapons, for sure, and want more.  They may also threaten to destroy the world if they don't get their way, or make up new concepts like [[illegal combatant]] to hold people in jail forever.  They are run almost entirely on [[propaganda]] and opinions from outside the country don't count for very much.  Examples: [[USA]], [[Israel]], [[North Korea]].
