The Green Otter's State of Garbelia is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Lutra Otto with a fair hand, and remarkable for its ban on automobiles, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.156 billion Garbeli love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.
The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Garvida. The average income tax rate is 92.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The very strong Garbelery economy, worth 109 trillion CryptoGarbels a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is extremely specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming. Average income is 94,913 CryptoGarbels, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Access to the woods is only granted to those who bring a small shrubbery, graffiti graces every city's streets, the words 'private' and 'enterprise' must never appear in the same sentence, and cane fights are a common sight in nursing homes. Crime is totally unknown. Garbelia's national animal is the Otter, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Lutrianism.
Garbelia is ranked 20,313th in the world and 116th in Forest for Lowest Crime Rates, with 81.25 Law-abiding Acts Per Hour.
