The State of Almagordo

“A Land of Hope”

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

The State of Almagordo is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its burgeoning deer population. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 33.049 billion Almagordoans are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 28.1%.

The very strong Almagordoan economy, worth a remarkable 1,296 trillion betales a year, is quite specialized and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Retail, Basket Weaving, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 39,230 betales, with the richest citizens earning 8.8 times as much as the poorest.

The latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, education and welfare spending are on the rise, young children are regularly seen wagering pocket money at blackjack tables, and the government is avowedly atheist. Crime is moderate. Almagordo's national animal is the deer, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Almagordo is ranked 206,863^rd in the world and 535^th in United States of America for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 28,207.07 Standard Monetary Units.
