The Kingdom of Afria Thebel is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Franciotto Orsini with an iron fist, and remarkable for its infamous sell-swords, keen interest in outer space, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 3.409 billion Afria Thebelians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bawshar. The average income tax rate is 70.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Afria Thebelian economy, worth a remarkable 1,134 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 332,695 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.
The nation is wading into dangerous waters, a cat may look at a king and a dude can look at an ass, Scoutmasters debate whether luxury log cabins defeat the purpose of camping, and it's usual for grandparents to stay in the family home with their descendants but younger children are often frightened of them. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Afria Thebel's national animal is the falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Western Rite Orthodoxy.
Afria Thebel is ranked 217,641st in the world and 4,152nd in the South Pacific for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 49.01 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
