Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Republic of Neo Angola is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Leader with an even hand, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape. Its hard-nosed population of 1.97 billion enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Commerce. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of adrasteia. The average income tax rate is 51%, and even higher for the wealthy. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, followed by Information Technology and Book Publishing.

Child labor has been outlawed, students are known to arrive at school in their pyjamas, pharmacies close down as medicinal drugs are sold freely by the government, and the government has cut its subsidies for all special interest groups. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Neo Angola's national animal is the Moose, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the Credit.

Neo Angola is ranked 192nd in The North Pacific and 6,478th in the world for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 5 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
