The Province of Greater Drenthe is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Wilders with an even hand, and notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed population of 8.668 billion Great Drents have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Assen. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 68.7%.
The frighteningly efficient Greater Drenthean economy, worth a remarkable 1,418 trillion Guldens a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Tourism. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 163,612 Guldens, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 554,680 per year while the poor average 35,634, a ratio of 15.6 to 1.
The act of reporting blasphemy is known as 'Orthodoxxing', artists are pillars of society, physics lessons mostly involve talking about emotional management techniques, and pallbearers at military funerals dive for cover when they hear the three-volley salute. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Greater Drenthe's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Esoteric Order of Dagon.
Greater Drenthe is ranked 26,587th in the world and 37th in Lands End for Highest Food Quality, scoring 86.01 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
