The Confederacy of Alpine Lands is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by the Federal Executive Council with an even hand, and renowned for its compulsory military service, daily referendums, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 6.305 billion Alpine Landers 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 large government prioritizes Healthcare, with Education, Administration, and Environment also on the agenda, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New New Belgrade. The average income tax rate is 63.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Alpine Lander economy, worth 419 trillion Kroner a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 66,492 Kroner, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Souvenir shops that sell alphorns are taking advantage of gullible tourists, the nation's museums are real penny-pinchers, religious organizations are being forced to leave the country or pay income taxes like everybody else, and most believe 'tis better to give than to receive. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Alpine Lands's national animal is the Vucko of Sarajevo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Alpine Lands is ranked 65,599^th in the world and 373^rd in Europe for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring 4,122.29 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
