OverviewFactbookDispatchesPoliciesPeopleGovernmentEconomyRankTrendCards

The Sunset Republic of Polgaria is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by the Federal Assembly with a fair hand, and remarkable for its national health service, absence of drug laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 13.788 billion Polgarians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zalnoch. The average income tax rate is 97.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Polgarian economy, worth a remarkable 2,028 trillion Euros a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 147,098 Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

It is common to see Maxémon Trainer listed on Polgarian resumés, tower block residents are each held responsible for four square inches of front lawn, nobody is allowed to stop the local daycare from reading Nietzsche to pre-schoolers, and government-run screening operations remove embryos with severe genetic disorders. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Polgaria's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Polgaria is ranked 305,431st in the world and 5,813th in The North Pacific for Most Ignorant Citizens, with 0.71 missed references per hour.
