The Federal Republic of Newfound Saint Oliver is a huge, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its museums and concert halls, absence of drug laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 247 million Olivers are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.
The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 35.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but inefficient Oliverian economy, worth 10.1 trillion Francs a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Basket Weaving, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 40,895 Francs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.
Nude art is becoming wildly popular, the Oliverian Arts Council pays teenagers to sit through opera performances, sales of pregnancy testing kits are booming, and grinding bureaucracy has the international wheels of justice turning slowly. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Newfound Saint Oliver's national animal is the Black Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Newfound Saint Oliver is ranked 33,478th in the world and 75th in Europe for Most Extensive Civil Rights, with 82.62 Martin Luther King, Jr. Units.
