The Republic of Garz is a massive, genial nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service. The democratic, devout population of 1.63 billion Garzians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.
The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 18.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but underdeveloped Garzian economy, worth 61.6 trillion Koronas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 37,791 Koronas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.
A large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region, and tourists from around the world come to visit the country's famous rainforests. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Garz's national animal is the Wolf.
Garz is ranked 152,143rd in the world and 6th in Kremlin for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 653.18 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
