The Holy Land of Slobodovia is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Slobodovan III with an iron fist, and notable for its closed borders, sprawling nuclear power plants, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 7.048 billion Slobodovians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Beogradia. The average income tax rate is 97.3%.
The frighteningly efficient Slobodovian economy, worth a remarkable 1,359 trillion Bilars a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 192,880 Bilars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.
Politicians have literally dirty hands from their extracurricular activities, balaclava manufacturers are held criminally culpable for bank heists, a National Academy regulates grammar and usage, and the government recently relinquished its monopoly on the mail service. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Slobodovia's national animal is the Crow, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Orthodox Christianity.
Slobodovia is ranked 220,096th in the world and 3,508th in Artificial Solar System for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring -4.9 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
