The Republic of Bernstorff is a massive, pleasant nation, renowned for its burgeoning bison population. The hard-working population of 1.63 billion Bernstorffians 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.
The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 16.1%.
The Bernstorffian economy, worth 76.2 trillion rubles a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Automobile Manufacturing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 46,722 rubles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.
Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bernstorff's national animal is the bison, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.
