The Queendom of Skaroaborg is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Queen Aethelflaed with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 14.926 billion Skaroaborgians 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 enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Orebro Castle. The average income tax rate is 77.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The very strong Skaroaborgian economy, worth a remarkable 1,052 trillion guilders a year, is quite specialized and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 70,521 guilders, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.
Sworn provincial enemies must be held back in Queen Aethelflaed's cabinet meetings, education is transforming people into first-rate snobs, there is no other place with more lab coats per square mile than former houses of worship, and workers can choose whether they prefer offices that smell of pungent body odor or whale vomit. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Skaroaborg's national animal is the fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Tengriism.
Skaroaborg is ranked 260,858th in the world and 18th in The Scandalian Alliance for Most Conservative, scoring 35.92 on the Bush-Santorum Dawning Terror Index.
