The Department of Bas-Rhin is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Jean-Luc Marx with an even hand, and notable for its zero percent divorce rate, keen interest in outer space, and parental licensing program. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 15.505 billion Bas-Rhinoises are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.
The relatively small, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Strasbourg. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 16.9%.
The thriving Bas-Rhinois economy, worth a remarkable 1,242 trillion francs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Furniture Restoration industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Information Technology, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 80,133 francs, with the richest citizens earning 9.3 times as much as the poorest.
Tours to see the 'wild men of the mountains' are popular with tourists from the big cities, agriculture is heavily subsidized by the government, 'I'm Coming Out' has shot to the top of the nation's music charts, and the Bas-Rhin Automotive Racing Series draws millions of spectators annually while those near the tracks complain about the noise. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Bas-Rhin's national animal is the wolf, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities, and its national religion is Roman Catholicism.
Bas-Rhin is ranked 146,373rd in the world and 4th in Department Store for Smartest Citizens, with 30.47 quips per hour.
