The State of Noma is a gargantuan, efficient nation, renowned for its complete lack of public education and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 22.018 billion Nomen enjoy frequent elections, which are uniformly corrupted by big-spending corporations buying politicians who best suit their interests.
The minute, moralistic, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Industry, with Law & Order also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Welfare receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.8%.
The powerhouse Noman economy, worth 762 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with significant contributions from Gambling, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 34,642 betales, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 118,849 per year while the poor average 7,411, a ratio of 16.0 to 1.
Voting is voluntary and Noma has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime is a problem, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Noma's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Noma is ranked 260,259th in the world and 7th in Sao Tome for Lowest Crime Rates, with 46.15 law-abiding acts per hour.
