The Republic of Neldessica is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Elden with an even hand, and remarkable for its state-planned economy, keen interest in outer space, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cheerful, devout population of 38.99 billion Neldans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The relatively small, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vellis. The average income tax rate is 82.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The enormous but sluggish Neldan economy, worth a remarkable 1,745 trillion gold coins a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is mostly comprised of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 44,766 gold coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Critical thinking is grounds for expulsion from university, hundreds of subterranean tunnels are being built as part of "Project Morlock", schools have extensive counseling programs for troubled students, and lovesick people are told 'it's not them, it's you'. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Neldessica's national animal is the dog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Agnosticism.
Neldessica is ranked 3,719th in the world and 170th in Osiris for Lowest Crime Rates, with 124.15 law-abiding acts per hour.
