Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Dominion of Mediterranean Seaport is a massive, socially progressive nation, notable for its complete absence of social welfare. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 2.201 billion are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

There is no government in the normal sense of the word; however, a small group of community-minded, pro-business individuals juggles the competing demands of Commerce, Defence, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5%. A robust private sector is led by the Woodchip Exports, Pizza Delivery, and Arms Manufacturing industries.

Crime is a major problem, and the police force struggles against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Mediterranean Seaport's national animal is the sea gull, and its currency is the sand dollar.

Mediterranean Seaport is ranked 1st in Indian Ocean and 34,471st in the world for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 2 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
