The Viking territories of Norway-Sweden-Finland is a colossal, safe nation, notable for its compulsory military service, keen interest in outer space, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 6.303 billion vikings are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Trondheim. The average income tax rate is 67.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Norway-Sweden-Finlandian economy, worth 577 trillion silver bars and coins a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 91,608 silver bars and coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Fruit vendors are encouraging a life of crime in their advertising, the nationalistic national anthem inspires citizens to literally spit at foreigners, toddler groups have taken over local libraries, and the easiest method of escaping from prison is to take singing lessons. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Norway-Sweden-Finland's national animal is the viking, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is nordic pagan.

Norway-Sweden-Finland is ranked 284,176^th in the world and 48^th in THE W0RLD for Most Pacifist, with 12.64 cheeks turned per day.
