Nor Ondsm

The Republic of Nor Ondsm is a colossal, safe nation, notable for its burgeoning sheep population. The hard-nosed population of 9.667 billion Nor Ondsmians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 23.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Nor Ondsmian economy, worth 375 trillion francs a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Basket Weaving, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 38,810 francs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

13-year-old internet trolls are treated as a threat on par with terrorists, the nation's navy has been named the scourge of the seven thousand seas, Violetist maidens who fall for an outsider must leave their violet light districts in shame, and students cut up leftover francs during Arts and Crafts. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nor Ondsm's national animal is the sheep.

Nor Ondsm is ranked 153,866th in the world and 7,029th in Balder for Lowest Crime Rates, with 60.7 law-abiding acts per hour.
