The Grail Kingdom of Chivalry and Romance is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Roland Margrave with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, anti-smoking policies, and daily referendums. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 8.805 billion Chivalric Knights are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.
The large, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Camelot. The average income tax rate is 84.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Chivalric economy, worth a remarkable 1,364 trillion guilders a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 155,007 guilders, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The national colors help to make everyone look slimmer, kindergartners' favourite dance move is the stop-drop-and-roll, attempts to inform people about their unclaimed property are often mistaken for telephone scams, and every workday begins with group therapy. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Chivalry and Romance's national animal is the Trusty Steed, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Courtly Love.
Chivalry and Romance is ranked 189,896th in the world and 7th in Commons for Most Stationary, with 62.02723113588 days.
