OverviewPoliciesPeopleGovernmentEconomyRankTrendCards

The Confederacy of Alpine Lands is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by the Federal Executive Council with an even hand, and notable for its compulsory military service, daily referendums, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 6.15 billion Alpine Landers 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 large government prioritizes Healthcare, with Education, Administration, and Environment also on the agenda, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New New Belgrade. The average income tax rate is 63.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Alpine Lander economy, worth 406 trillion Kroner a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 66,020 Kroner, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Discarded pennies litter the streets, the government regularly publishes lengthy reports on its own excessive recordkeeping, souvenir shops that sell alphorns are taking advantage of gullible tourists, and the nation's museums are real penny-pinchers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Alpine Lands's national animal is the Vucko of Sarajevo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Alpine Lands is ranked 258,223rd in the world and 940th in Europe for Most Primitive, scoring -135.19 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
