“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 President Edward Orbavaman with a fair hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, digital currency, and ban on automobiles. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 1.821 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, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Del Faisán. The average income tax rate is 78.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Stratosphere Islandsian economy, worth 256 trillion Stratosphere Dollars a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 141,114 Stratosphere Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

New government leaflets tell coeliac children to eat more crisps, skateboarding is considered a form of diplomacy, several citizens have complained about scientists abducting their pets for experimentation, and the number of judges has tripled in recent months. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Stratosphere Islands's national animal is the Golden Pheasant, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Atheism.

The Stratosphere Islands is ranked 11,840^th in the world and 619^th in The North Pacific for Most Secular, with 82.94 Atheism Rate.
