The Free Land of Philadelphium is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, state-planned economy, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 4.143 billion Philadelphiumians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 71.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The thriving Philadelphiumian economy, worth 310 trillion credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Cheese Exports, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 75,052 credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Lovesick people are told 'it's not them, it's you', parents often leave their kids in the car while they attend mindfulness meditation sessions, all beauty contests have been banned, and politicians "baring all" for the camera isn't always a figure of speech. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Philadelphium's national animal is the mongoose, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Philadelphium is ranked 39,556th in the world and 600th in The Communist Bloc for Highest Poor Incomes, with 62,605.85 Standard Monetary Units.
