The United Federation of Slokais Islands is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by President Joseph Chavez with a fair hand, and renowned for its punitive income tax rates, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 16.242 billion Slokaisians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.
The enormous, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Liverpool. The average income tax rate is 96.1%.
The frighteningly efficient Slokais Islander economy, worth a remarkable 2,235 trillion markons a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Trout Farming, and Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 137,617 markons, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
'To Regulate And Beyond' is the unofficial motto of the Slokais Islander Space Agency, group hugs break out during floor votes, the government recently relinquished its monopoly on the mail service, and volunteers are signing up to take arms against an incursion of flesh-eating zombies (Slokais Islands has found 2 easter eggs). Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Slokais Islands's national animal is the Red Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Slokais Islands is ranked 251,245th in the world and 55th in International Democratic Union for Largest Basket Weaving Sector, scoring -3.92 on the Hickory Productivity Index.
