The United Socialist States of Refugeehaven is a large, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its punitive income tax rates, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, devout population of 50 million Refugeehavenians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 74.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The imploded Refugeehavenian economy, worth 297 billion Esperanzas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Furniture Restoration, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 5,957 Esperanzas, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Older citizens lament over the loss of law and order, old folks reminisce about the last time someone was acquitted of a crime, all beauty contests have been banned, and hairdressers are forced to use all the tricks of the trade after citizens became required to wear helmets at all times. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Refugeehaven's national animal is the Capybara, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Refugeehaven is ranked 60,447th in the world and 765th in the West Pacific for Most Beautiful Environments, with 643.46 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
