Overview • Factbook • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis
The Federal Republic of Estovik is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Federal President Dorian Hunter with an even hand, and notable for its hatred of cheese. Its compassionate, hard-working population of 2.86 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 Defence, Law & Order, and Education. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gyista. The average income tax rate is 91%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, followed by Tourism and Uranium Mining.
International tensions are high as Estovik threatens any government with the audacity to arrest its citizens, almost all of Estovik's water is piped into the country from abroad for exorbitant prices, the nation's new foreign policy of 'very disproportionate retribution' has its neighbors on edge, and the armed forces are locked in an expensive and bloody war abroad to stamp out possible terrorists. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Estovik's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, its national religion is Protestantism, and its currency is the Federal Mark.
Estovik is ranked 26th in Shirayuki and 127,113th in the world for Most Extreme, scoring 3 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
