The Theocracy of Albakon is a very large, safe nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, punitive income tax rates, and suspicion of poets. The cynical, devout population of 177 million Albakonians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The large, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Law & Order, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 53.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but inefficient Albakonian economy, worth 6.57 trillion marks a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 37,101 marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.
Politicians have seen a significant reduction in followers on their social media accounts, citizens receive notices of disenfranchisement along with their parking tickets, ghost regiments exist only on paper, and politicians can't accept birthday presents from their own children. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Albakon's national animal is the orca, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.
Albakon is ranked 100,425th in the world and 84th in Commonwealth of Sovereign States for Nicest Citizens, with 14.64 average smiles per day.
