Political districts
gollark: Your meme is basically "rhetoric" too.
gollark: Ah yes, because that is always true and accurate and nobody has EVER been hurt by "communism"!
gollark: Personal freedom is just... how free you are to do stuff in your personal life or interacting with others, political is how much you can influence governance and/or how much you can talk about/do political things, economic is how free you are to... engage in commerce and stuff I guess.
gollark: Er, personal, not civil.
gollark: NationStates, an online game and therefore entirely accurate all the time, defines three freedoms: civil, political and economic.
