Like GrimFinger said, there are many ways that "country building" could be interpreted. I run one of those empire-building space games he mentioned, called Galac-Tac, at <www.talisman-games.com>, if you're interested in that sort of 4X-style game. It started as a traditional PBM game in 1982 and now it runs (with the same paper-style commands and reports and deadlines) over the web. More information is available upon request, at the website, or in various S&D magazine articles & ads.
