The Sultanate of Goldbergya is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Galahad with an iron fist, and renowned for its soft-spoken computers, punitive income tax rates, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, cynical, cheerful, devout population of 4.91 billion Goldbergyans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The medium-sized, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of BlackFord. The average income tax rate is 69.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Goldbergyan economy, worth 767 trillion Bitcoins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 156,396 Bitcoins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.
The new foreign policy is "why bother invading neighbours when they can be bought wholesale?", the government loves seeing the little people fight, the army consists of only generals and grunts, and 'A is for Annulment' is a popular children's song. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Goldbergya's national animal is the Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Goldbergya is ranked 38,073rd in the world and 822nd in the South Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 5,414.65 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
