New Scandinavian

The Republic of New Scandinavian is a large, genial nation, remarkable for its daily referendums, irreverence towards religion, and suspicion of poets. The democratic population of 62 million New Scandinavianians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 36.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient New Scandinavianian economy, worth 2.04 trillion euros a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Retail, Soda Sales, and Pizza Delivery. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 32,873 euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Prison visits increase substantially during election years, feuilletons can only be deciphered with a Galliennais dictionary, grandiose stage parents insist superyachts and private cinemas are children's basic needs, and last minute own-goals raise the suspicious eyebrows of sporting authorities. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Scandinavian's national animal is the moose, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

New Scandinavian is ranked 259,369th in the world and 4,537th in the South Pacific for Most Conservative, scoring 26.38 on the Bush-Santorum Dawning Terror Index.
