“Modify if you can, invent if you cannot”

Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Federation of Unified Delphi is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Jebediah Kerman with a fair hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.65 billion Delphi 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 enormous government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Invenire. The average income tax rate is 92.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Delphinian economy, worth 449 trillion Pennis a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 123,281 Pennis, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Delphi seem to be catching more chills, environmentalists are advocating slash-and-burn in the nation's forests, older citizens lament over the loss of law and order, and history textbook pages are used as impromptu tissues by distraught students. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Unified Delphi's national animal is the emu, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Unified Delphi is ranked 11,930^th in the world and 341^st in the South Pacific for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 54.76 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
