The Parliamentary Republic of Alpha and Delta Pact is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by President Jonathan and PM Will Shepard with an even hand, and renowned for its devotion to social welfare. Its compassionate, hard-working, intelligent population of 5.966 billion 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.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Social Equality. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Unity City. The average income tax rate is 91%, and even higher for the wealthy. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Tourism industry.

Dozens of additional foreign policy specialists have been sent to the country's WA Mission, expats return home to a government devoid of social and environmental agencies, euthanasia is legal, and inheritance tax has recently been abolished. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Alpha and Delta Pact's national animal is the Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, its national religion is Mixed, and its currency is the Republic Pound.

Alpha and Delta Pact is ranked 253rd in Europe and 51,604th in the world for Most Income Equality, scoring 129 on the Marx-Engels Emancipation Scale.
