Update on my country

Civil Rights: Very Good
Economy: Good
Political Freedoms: Good


The Federation of Vitaaborg is a huge, socially progressive nation, renowned for its burgeoning Droid population. Its compassionate, hard-working population of 406 million 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.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 44%. A substantial private sector is led by the Cheese Exports industry, followed by Gambling and Basket Weaving.

All major public areas are watched by police surveillance cameras, government-run screening operations remove embryos with severe genetic disorders, the nation has opened its arms to an influx of refugees, and pharmacies close down as medicinal drugs are sold freely by the government. Crime is well under control, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vitaaborg's national animal is the Droid, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Virtual Borg.

Vitaaborg is ranked 132nd in the region and 47,892nd in the world for Largest Public Sector.
