Location: The Realm of Alterra

Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Commonwealth of Allmann is a massive, safe nation, notable for its punitive income tax rates. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 2.852 billion love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it devotes most of its attentions to Education, with areas such as Religion & Spirituality and the Environment receiving almost no funds by comparison. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kópgard. The average income tax rate is 94%, and even higher for the wealthy. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Information Technology industry.

Underage drinkers are dragged through the streets and put in the stocks, the number of students attending university has reached a record high, the "Underwear of Women in Power" issue of The Kópgard Times is sold out, and the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Allmann's national animal is the Fór, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the Allemannen Guilden.

Allmann is ranked 34th in The Realm of Alterra and 94,983rd in the world for Most Conservative, scoring 38 on the Bush-Santorum Dawning Terror Index.
