The Serene Dáxlamic Estuary of Adenah is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Lýderis Bradford John with an iron fist, and notable for its compulsory military service, state-planned economy, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 1.38 billion Adenahians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.
The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Riverside. The average income tax rate is 72.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but stagnant Adenahian economy, worth 14.2 trillion Dáxlamic marks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 10,293 Dáxlamic marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Children fear compulsory visits to their spiritual advisors more than the dentist, it's always rabbit season, women who walk into the ladies' changing room are accused of being Peeping Toms, and a weakened police force struggles to maintain law and order. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Adenah's national animal is the fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Adenah is ranked 33,997th in the world and 68th in Declansburg for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 72.71 Effective Tax Rate.
