The Colony of Sikol is a colossal, cultured nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, devout population of 8.471 billion Sikolians 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 enormous government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sikole. The average income tax rate is 73.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The strong Sikolian economy, worth 522 trillion acorns a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 61,635 acorns, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Political gridlock ensues as even the most innocuous legislation is vetoed by the Supreme Court for potential civil rights violations, the Snapgram channel "Embarrassing Baby Leader Pics" has made Leader's mom a celebrity, all statues and paintings of dogs are being destroyed to avoid offending cat-lovers, and it is believed that belligerence is a passing phase foreign leaders will soon outgrow. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sikol's national animal is the squirrel, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Sikol is ranked 46,562nd in the world and 1,548th in The North Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 75.11 law-abiding acts per hour.
