The Darling Sweetheart of Republique Maritime dAlpine is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Sylvianne Marie Berkenbosch-Rousseau with a fair hand, and notable for its national health service, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.413 billion Alpinoises are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pivoine-sur-Mer. The average income tax rate is 67.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Alpinoise economy, worth 165 trillion Pivoines a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 68,502 Pivoines, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Troublemakers boast about how many times they have to visit their therapist, invasive drug testing is now performed at elementary school sports days, Republique Maritime dAlpine's airwaves are dominated by corporate-backed commercial radio, and genocide is seen as a topic best avoided in history lessons. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Republique Maritime dAlpine's national animal is the Alpaca, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Aphroditeism.

Republique Maritime dAlpine is ranked 12,207^th in the world and 299^th in Europe for Most Beautiful Environments, with 1,475.14 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
