Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Ubermensch of Alpha2 is a gargantuan, economically powerful nation, ruled by The Council with an iron fist, and notable for its anti-smoking policies. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 19.79 billion are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

There is no government in the normal sense of the word; however, a small group of community-minded, corrupt, pro-business individuals is effectively ruled by the Department of Defence, with areas such as Social Equality and the Environment receiving almost no funds by comparison. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Überstadt. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, followed by Uranium Mining and Information Technology.

Criminals are thrown to the Gotts to repay their debt to society, Alpha2's army is full of two-metre tall super-soldiers, senior citizens can usually be found doing heavy manual labour, and the national Police Academies have dedicated infant wings. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Alpha2's national animal is the Gott, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, its national religion is egotheism, and its currency is the gold.

Alpha2 is ranked 4th in Scandinavia and 58th in the world for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 28 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
