The District of Covenancy is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Liard with an even hand, and notable for its strictly enforced bedtime, public floggings, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 43.799 billion Covanancians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of District City. The average income tax rate is 85.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The powerhouse Covenancyian economy, worth a remarkable 3,301 trillion aurums 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 Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Book Publishing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 75,387 aurums, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Conscripts often volunteer for a second tour of duty so they can get a ticket to next year's Army Revue, fifteen-year-olds cannot walk younger siblings to school without a professional Childcare and Education Certificate, it is mandatory to learn evolution in schools, and the Random Number Gods do play dice with the universe (Covenancy has found 3 easter eggs). Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Covenancy's national animal is the bovina, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Covenancy is ranked 24,966th in the world and 6th in Dog Lake for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 6,325.38 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
