The District of Alsek

“A Land Far Far Away”

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

The District of Alsek is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 33.183 billion Alsekians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.9%.

The strong Alsekian economy, worth a remarkable 1,203 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is led by the Uranium Mining industry, with significant contributions from Cheese Exports, Gambling, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 36,271 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 246,605 per year while the poor average 1,948, a ratio of 126 to 1.

The streets are increasingly clogged with poverty-stricken beggars, Alsek's children are widely acknowledged as the most foul-mouthed in the region, voting is voluntary, and rioting and unrest sweep the nation. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Alsek's national animal is the deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Alsek is ranked 289,553^rd in the world and 669^th in Ancient Lands for Lowest Crime Rates, with 32.92 law-abiding acts per hour.
