The Borderlands of Sequojeda - "Yggdrasil is our job"
UN Category: Democratic Socialists
Civil Rights: Good
Economy: Reasonable
Political Freedoms: Excellent
Regional Influence: Minnow
The Borderlands of Sequojeda is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its complete lack of prisons. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 1.806 billion are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, the Environment, and Public Transport. The average income tax rate is 69%, and even higher for the wealthy. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising fourteen-year-old boys selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.
Trespassers often find themselves impaled by crossbow bolts, birds and children's kites are regularly brought down by anti-aircraft fire, government-run brothels can be found on every street corner, and referenda can be called for any law at the request of at least one third of the voting population. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is moderate, probably because of the country's utter lack of prisons. Sequojeda's national animal is the beaver, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the orbis.
Sequojeda is ranked 996th in the region and 63,327th in the world for Most Politically Apathetic Citizens.
