The Constitutional Monarchy of Amelia-Madison is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Queen Amelia IV with a fair hand, and remarkable for its digital currency, frequent executions, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 2.221 billion Amelians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.
The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Porto Amelia. The average income tax rate is 37.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Amelian economy, worth 266 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Retail, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 119,809 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.
Airplane passengers who purchase "basic economy" tickets are often assigned seats in the lavatory, the nation's only university is the School of Hard Knocks, discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation is illegal, and Michelin-star chefs are being called on to prepare menus for six-year-olds. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Amelia-Madison's national animal is the eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Christianity.
Amelia-Madison is ranked 28,677th in the world and 660th in the South Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 226.39 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
