Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Militant Mercantile Alliance of Greenspoint is a gargantuan, safe nation, notable for its sprawling nuclear power plants. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 16.736 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 Law & Order, Defence, and Religion & Spirituality. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Greenspoint City. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Uranium Mining industry, followed by Beef-Based Agriculture and Automobile Manufacturing.

'The Anti-Government Hour' is a popular programme on many of Greenspoint's radio stations, the government seizes private property for the 'good of the people', the nanny industry has had a boom after maternity leave was recently banned, and retirement homes are often fitted with luxurious suites. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Greenspoint's national animal is the Mallrat, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the Arcade Token.

Greenspoint is ranked 8th in Texas and 1,006th in the world for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 11 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
