East Sandalusia

The Soviet Republic of East Sandalusia is a colossal, genial nation, renowned for its frequent executions, smutty television, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 9.575 billion East Sandalusians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The enormous, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Welfare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 72.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant East Sandalusian economy, worth 96.2 trillion Eastern Francs 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 Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 10,050 Eastern Francs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Glancing at the car radio display while driving is treated as attempted homicide, summer science camps are regularly raided by narcotics police, the diplomatic corps tends to open negotiations by insulting all the foreigners in the room, and vital intelligence-gathering activities are put on hold as agents return home for seduction training and advanced poker instruction. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. East Sandalusia's national animal is the Sandalusian Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

East Sandalusia is ranked 53,507th in the world and 16th in Deutschland for Most Stationary, with 825.5449230398 days.
