The Republic of Alexstrasza is a massive, pleasant nation, remarkable for its prohibition of alcohol, enslaved workforce, and hatred of cheese. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 3.706 billion Alexstraszans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The large government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Healthcare, and Administration also on the agenda. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 58.1%.
The Alexstraszan economy, worth 188 trillion sovereigns a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 50,894 sovereigns, with the richest citizens earning 8.1 times as much as the poorest.
Nervous homeowners have been blamed for rising death rates amongst carol singers and locksmiths, balaclava manufacturers are held criminally culpable for bank heists, every day has been a surprise since weather reporters turned to consulting ancient totems for their seven-day forecasts, and people who tease dwarfs are being cut down to size. Crime is relatively low, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Alexstrasza's national animal is the dragon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.
Alexstrasza is ranked 265,326th in the world and 1,958th in Remembrance for Safest, scoring 13.12 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
