“Concordia, Integritas, Industria”

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

The Great Republic of Segesta is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Cosimo II with an even hand, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, anti-smoking policies, and prohibition of alcohol. The hard-nosed, devout population of 3.752 billion Segestans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nova Segesta. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 89.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Segestan economy, worth 688 trillion Crowns a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 183,619 Crowns, with the richest citizens earning 7.1 times as much as the poorest.

Forgetting to pay your annual passport bill is a leading cause of deportations, evenings at university debating societies often end with everyone acknowledging both sides may well be right, newspapers are celebrating Cosimo II saving over a million cats from trees, and visiting the best Segestan restaurants requires keeping a visa on file. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Segesta's national animal is the eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Monotheism.

Segesta is ranked 24,858^th in the world and 617^th in The North Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 4,953.69 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
