The State of Las Palmeras is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its museums and concert halls, smutty television, and national health service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 21.142 billion Palmerans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.
The relatively small, outspoken government prioritizes Industry, although Healthcare, Education, and Law & Order are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.8%.
The frighteningly efficient Las Palmerasian economy, worth a remarkable 2,145 trillion Nueva Pesetas a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Automobile Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 101,463 Nueva Pesetas, with the richest citizens earning 8.7 times as much as the poorest.
Pizzerias must now display shrines to the Pizza God, museums have more touchscreens on display than artifacts, the nation's politicians are known more for the internet memes they spawn than any of their accomplishments, and anti-vaxxers are right about the government injecting diseases into people. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Las Palmeras's national animal is the Laughing Seagull, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Las Palmeras is ranked 204,923rd in the world and 1st in New Gensokyo for Largest Timber Woodchipping Industry, scoring -5.1 on the Tasmanian Pulp Environmental Export Index.
