The Republic of Escanaba Falls is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Aldo Leopold with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, compulsory military service, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 26.195 billion Escanaba Fallsians 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 relatively small, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government prioritizes Education, with Public Transport, Environment, and Defense also on the agenda, while Spirituality receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Wahpeton. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 18.5%.
The frighteningly efficient Escanaba Fallsian economy, worth a remarkable 3,699 trillion Rois a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 141,247 Rois, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 450,779 per year while the poor average 33,642, a ratio of 13.4 to 1.
Jennifer Government is a bestseller, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, the nation's universities are often mistaken for foreign embassies, and anti-government political posters adorn every building like wallpaper. Crime is totally unknown. Escanaba Falls's national animal is the Lemming, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Escanaba Falls is ranked 61,435th in the world and 73rd in Yggdrasil for Lowest Crime Rates, with 71.49 law-abiding acts per hour.
