The Holy Black Empire of United People of Alvalade is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Pater with an iron fist, and renowned for its public floggings, otherworldly petting zoo, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 1.095 billion United People of Alvaladeans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Alvalade. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 82.5%.
The strong United People of Alvaladean economy, worth 105 trillion Alvabucks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, and Cheese Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 96,212 Alvabucks, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 293,463 per year while the poor average 24,465, a ratio of 12.0 to 1.
The banhammer is a standard police sidearm, vital intelligence-gathering activities are put on hold as agents return home for seduction training and advanced poker instruction, residents of newly dried out bays live in fear of leaky dikes, and United People of Alvalade's free colleges struggle to maintain standards in the face of overwhelming demand. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. United People of Alvalade's national animal is the White Tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
United People of Alvalade is ranked 21,245th in the world and 1,323rd in Osiris for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 7,801.98 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
