The State of Albany Heights is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by the Governor with a fair hand, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 14.839 billion Albany Heightsians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.
The minute, outspoken government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.8%.
The very strong Albany Heightsian economy, worth 925 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Retail, Furniture Restoration, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 62,394 betales, with the richest citizens earning 9.4 times as much as the poorest.
The government is reining in public spending, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, Albany Heights has designated Capital Heights as its capital city, and The Governor has just been declared ruler of Albany Heights in an international press conference. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Albany Heights's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.
Albany Heights is ranked 178,231st in the world and 7th in Pittsburgh for Most Primitive, scoring -69.64 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
