The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 14.5%.

The jolly economy, worth 40.1 trillion ice cubes a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Pizza Delivery, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 48,551 ice cubes, 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. North Pole and South Lapland's national animal is the red-nosed reindeer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.
