The Kingdom of Estande is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Filipe Gonçalves de Sá with an even hand, and notable for its national health service, free-roaming dinosaurs, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, devout population of 8.025 billion Estandérs are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Estrada. The average income tax rate is 83.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Estandér economy, worth a remarkable 1,033 trillion escudoes a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 128,799 escudoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Students are wary of colorfully decorated new teachers with names like Professor Pipsqueak, people seem disproportionately distraught when told a museum has a phones-off policy, tampons are used as cheap fishing bobbers, and more and more people are signing up for the government party. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Estande's national animal is the estandér eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Estande is ranked 133,249th in the world and 2,303rd in The East Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 761.44 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
