The Kingdom of Portugal of Bayside is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Prime Minster George Wright with a fair hand, and remarkable for its frequent executions, complete lack of prisons, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 13.281 billion Northern Rhodesians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.
The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Welfare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Edinburgh. The average income tax rate is 68.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The Baysidean economy, worth 451 trillion Portuguese Reais a year, is highly specialized and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Tourism, and Information Technology. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 33,982 Portuguese Reais, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The minority inevitably have their addenda vetoed, fiscal policy hawks decry the sizable "panem et circenses" fund added to the public budget, sales of disinfectant wipes have skyrocketed, and children are brainwashed at a young age to accept "love and peace!" as a way of life. Crime is totally unknown. Bayside's national animal is the Dog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is None.
Bayside is ranked 40,837th in the world and 83rd in Commonwealth of Liberty for Most Beautiful Environments, with 739.96 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
