“Power to the People”

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

The Republic of The Stratosphere Islands is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Alphalion with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, frequent executions, and smutty television. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 3.079 billion Stratosphereans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Del Faisán. The average income tax rate is 88.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Stratosphere Islandsian economy, worth 479 trillion Bloods a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 155,767 Bloods, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.

Minorities play dumb to get more welfare payments, kids' party bags often contain candy and e-cigarettes, the government spends more on chasing distant comets than on basic infrastructure, and prolonged government investigations are a common revenge tactic among spurned significant others. Crime is totally unknown. The Stratosphere Islands's national animal is the Golden Pheasant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Starlight.

The Stratosphere Islands is ranked 13,283^rd in the world and 648^th in The North Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 87.73 Law-abiding Acts Per Hour.
