The Rogue Nation of Forsythland is a very large, safe nation, notable for its irreverence towards religion and stringent health and safety legislation. The quiet, industrious population of 113 million Forsythlandians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 30.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but inefficient Forsythlandian economy, worth 5.03 trillion kronor a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Basket Weaving, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 44,528 kronor, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.
Citizens are bombarded with advertising from their compulsory miniature radios, large-girthed charity workers assign themselves healthy wages for their work with starving children, centuries-old marble buildings are being torn down and replaced with corrugated steel wind tunnels, and Big Agriculture has the government by the nuts. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Forsythland's national animal is the beaver, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Forsythland is ranked 139,433rd in the world and 701st in Europeia for Lowest Crime Rates, with 62.06 law-abiding acts per hour.
