The Kingdom of Saint-Augustine is a huge, cultured nation, remarkable for its museums and concert halls, compulsory military service, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, devout population of 609 million Augustinois enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.
The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Welfare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Saint-Denis. The average income tax rate is 64.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but inefficient Augustinois economy, worth 26.1 trillion Francs a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Soda Sales, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 42,915 Francs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The military recognizes no difference between male and female soldiers, a broken arm or leg no longer costs an arm and a leg, there have been sightings of people walking around dressed in nothing but leopard-skin g-strings for 'religious reasons', and commemoration of the Great Caribbean War costs almost as much as the war itself. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Saint-Augustine's national animal is the Alligator, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.
Saint-Augustine is ranked 254,291st in the world and 19th in Caribbean for Most Secular, with 13.02 Atheism Rate.
