The Catalonian City of B a r c e l o n a is a gargantuan, safe nation, notable for its punitive income tax rates. The quiet, industrious population of 38.968 billion B a r c e l o n ans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Healthcare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 68.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The enormous but underdeveloped B a r c e l o n an economy, worth a remarkable 1,006 trillion euros a year, is quite specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, and Gambling. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 25,838 euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. B a r c e l o n a's national animal is the donkey, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

B a r c e l o n a is ranked 1,692^nd in the world and 1^st in Catalonia for Largest Populations, with 39.0 billion capita.
