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

The Kingdom of Nibelia is a huge, socially progressive nation, notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, hard-working population of 616 million Nibelians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The relatively small, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Telvyk. The average income tax rate is 20.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Nibelian economy, worth 51.0 trillion Nibelian Pounds a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 82,732 Nibelian Pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Most of the nation's wealthy aristocrats are dentists, unemployed political consultants and advertisers spend every election night weeping for the good old days, it is technically inaccurate to call the dead 'worm food', and a sophisticated government-sponsored breeding program creates normal people. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nibelia's national animal is the Koi, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Nibelia is ranked 35,328^th in the world and 35^th in Conch Kingdom for Most Armed, with 2.47 Weapons Per Person.
