OverviewPoliciesPeopleGovernmentEconomyRankTrendCards

The Lake of Balaton is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its ban on automobiles, irreverence towards religion, and absence of drug laws. The hard-working, democratic population of 6.441 billion Balatonians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The tiny, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.8%.

The strong Balatonian economy, worth 376 trillion Forints a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Soda Sales industry, with major contributions from Retail, Furniture Restoration, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 58,492 Forints, with the richest citizens earning 5.8 times as much as the poorest.

Museums have more touchscreens on display than artifacts, cars are banned, euthanasia is legal, and organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region. Crime is moderate, probably because of the absence of a police force. Balaton's national animal is the Hattyú, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Balaton is ranked 305,595th in the world and 15,480th in Lazarus for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 7.79 Effective Tax Rate.
