The County of Sussex is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Æðelstan with an even hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 20.249 billion Sussexians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.
The medium-sized, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Spirituality, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Brighton. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 17.7%.
The very strong Sussexian economy, worth 984 trillion pounds a year, is led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Book Publishing. Average income is 48,632 pounds, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 148,562 per year while the poor average 12,339, a ratio of 12.0 to 1.
Education and welfare spending are on the rise, Sussex has designated Brighton as its capital city, Æðelstan has just been declared ruler of Sussex in an international press conference, and Anglicanism has been named as Sussex's national religion. Crime is moderate. Sussex's national animal is the martlet and its national religion is Anglicanism.
Sussex is ranked 155,574th in the world and 5,601st in the South Pacific for Highest Drug Use, scoring 53 on the Pineapple Fondness Rating.
