The Democratic Republic of East Scoth is a massive, efficient nation, notable for its daily referendums, absence of drug laws, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.071 billion East Scothians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.
The large, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Haelm. The average income tax rate is 81.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient East Scothian economy, worth 140 trillion labour notes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 131,638 labour notes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Local government operates tolls on every village road, fur coats have become the latest fashion trend, Maxtopian tourists make expensive pilgrimages to Haelm to enjoy their national art, and students are wary of colorfully decorated new teachers with names like Professor Pipsqueak. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. East Scoth's national animal is the kangaroo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
East Scoth is ranked 9,794th in the world and 66th in The Leftist Assembly for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 412.14 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
