Garbelia 3

The Republic of Garbelia 3 is a huge, genial nation, notable for its ban on automobiles, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic population of 917 million Garbelia 3ians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 50.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Garbelia 3ian economy, worth 19.3 trillion francs a year, is quite specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 21,077 francs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's reputation for treachery has left it sidelined on the international stage, a large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, all beauty contests have been banned, and a niche industry catering to S&M enthusiasts has sprung up. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Garbelia 3's national animal is the emu, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Garbelia 3 is ranked 71,518th in the world and 13th in Garbelia Puppet Storage for Nicest Citizens, with 15.9 average smiles per day.
