The Republic of Albella is a huge, cultured nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, compulsory military service, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 697 million Albellans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Freelandsburg. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.6%.
The all-consuming Albellan economy, worth 66.6 trillion Albellian Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Woodchip Exports, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 95,491 Albellian Dollars, with the richest citizens earning 5.4 times as much as the poorest.
Scaffolding is built around scaffolding to give safe access, rude retail employees are now even ruder homeless panhandlers, politicians spend more time in courtrooms than in Parliament, and all writing must pass a censorship board before being allowed on the shelves. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Albella's national animal is the black panther, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Albella is ranked 286,956th in the world and 30th in Imperial Continent for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 9.56 Effective Tax Rate.
