“Round and round”

Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Holy Empire of Aliq is a gargantuan, orderly nation, remarkable for its punitive income tax rates, restrictive gun laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical population of 24.875 billion Aliqians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of International Aid, Welfare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 58.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Aliqian economy, worth 65.0 trillion Dollars a year, is highly specialized and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Soda Sales, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 2,613 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Aliq's national animal is the horse.

Aliq is ranked 225,604^th in the world and 3,947^th in The North Pacific for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring zero on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
