The Federation of Schleswigholstein is a very large, safe nation, notable for its compulsory military service and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working population of 109 million Schleswigholsteinians 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 Defense, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 10.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The Schleswigholsteinian economy, worth 6.80 trillion Euros a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Retail, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 62,358 Euros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.
The tinfoil-hat crowd also recommend tinfoil wallets, one tree's worth of paperwork accompanies each imported log of timber, the WhoTube comments section has gone strangely quiet, and the tenet of free speech is held dear. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Schleswigholstein's national animal is the Eagle, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.
Schleswigholstein is ranked 79,753rd in the world and 7th in Germany for Most Patriotic, with 17.68 flags saluted per person per day.
