The Red Mercantile Communes of Alentejo and Algarve is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Grã-Cônsul Jerónimo de Sousa with an even hand, and notable for its state-planned economy, digital currency, and anti-smoking policies. The compassionate population of 16.849 billion Compadrês are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The enormous, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Felicia Argos. The average income tax rate is 98.9%.
The frighteningly efficient Compadrê economy, worth a remarkable 3,373 trillion çifrãoes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Tourism. Average income is an amazing 200,225 çifrãoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The GPS-tracked jogging routes of military personnel are a possible security risk, the words 'private' and 'enterprise' must never appear in the same sentence, conductors wield diamond-encrusted batons to fit in with their freshly gilded surroundings, and running away is an essential part of the elite forces' hand-to-hand training. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Alentejo and Algarve's national animal is the Lince Ibérico, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Alentejo and Algarve is ranked 1,906th in the world and 4th in Portugal for Lowest Crime Rates, with 146.71 law-abiding acts per hour.
