The Democratic States of Novasonia is a large, socially progressive nation, notable for its compulsory military service and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 62 million Novasonians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.
The tiny government prioritizes Defense, although Healthcare, Administration, and Law & Order are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid are ignored. The average income tax rate is 7.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The strong Novasonian economy, worth 3.52 trillion Franks a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Gambling, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 56,836 Franks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.
The military is researching proton packs and PK-meters to combat "unseen enemy forces" and the mining industry is making inroads into environmentally sensitive areas. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Novasonia's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Novasonia is ranked 264,546th in the world and 873rd in Europeia for Largest Populations, with 62.0 million capita.
