The Federation of Relykstrana is a massive, safe nation, notable for its state-planned economy, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The cynical, devout population of 4.339 billion Relykstranans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.
The enormous, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Spirituality, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 71.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but stagnant Relykstranan economy, worth 31.0 trillion rubles a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Tourism, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 7,142 rubles, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Relykstrana's national animal is the horse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Relykstrana is ranked 86,177th in the world and 43rd in Lands End for Most Stationary, with 538.57949558668 days.
