New Genovia

The Principality of New Genovia is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, national health service, and daily referendums. The compassionate, democratic population of 721 million New Genovians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 74.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient New Genovian economy, worth 67.9 trillion genoves a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 94,166 genoves, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Online terrorists are automatically assigned adverts for cheap balaclavas, a shocking number of estate planners are beneficiaries of their clients' wills, the national guard is mobilized whenever a mother gets separated from her child at the mall, and community-designed sword prostheses are becoming dangerously common. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Genovia's national animal is the Pear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

New Genovia is ranked 283,290th in the world and 1,355th in Europe for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -13.24 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
