The Chesapeake Commonwealth of Celtic Tidewater is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its burgeoning crab population. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 22.299 billion Tidewaterites enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.
The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Spirituality, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 24.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The large but underdeveloped Tidewater economy, worth 563 trillion guineas a year, is quite specialized and led by the Furniture Restoration industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Uranium Mining, and Pizza Delivery. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 25,273 guineas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
High-income earners pay a 100% tax rate, the nation is ravaged by daily union strikes, the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, and political parties are banned from advertising and receiving private donations. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Celtic Tidewater's national animal is the crab, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.
Celtic Tidewater is ranked 244,876th in the world and 8th in Maryland for Highest Food Quality, scoring 8 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
