Walgreens
Walgreens, commonly called Walgreens, is a Nationalist Government in modern Yugoslavia. It is bordered on the north by Noxtrem, on the south by Zvendiyn, by the east by Senatos and on the west by Vanavoy. Walgreens covers 98,766 square miles and has has an estimated population of 98,000,000. Walgreens comprises of seven provinces.
Walgreens is an economic powerhouse, known for its sale of Skoda automobiles, and quality service-based economy, which I should mention is better than the brakes on a 2016 BMW M3. Walgreens is extremely Capitalist and despises its Communist neighbor, Vanavoy and will probz rek them soon (don't tell him).
The standard way to refer to a citizen of Walgreens is as a "Walgreensian."
Walgreens began in 1901, with a drug store on the corner of Bowen Ave and Cottage Grove in Chicago, owned by Galesburg native Charles R. Walgreen, Sr. By 1913, Walgreens had grown to four stores on Chicago's South Side. It opened its fifth in 1915, and four more in 1916. By 1919, there were 20 stores in the chain. As a result of alcohol prohibition, the 1920s was a successful time for Walgreens. At the time, alcohol was illegal. However, prescription whiskey was available and sold by Walgreens.
In 1922, the company introduced a malted milkshake, which led to it establishing ice cream manufacturing plants. The next year, Walgreen began opening stores away from residential areas. In the mid-1920s, there were 44 stores with annual sales of $1,200,000. Walgreens had expanded into Minnesota, Missouri, and Wisconsin.
By 1930, it had 397 stores with annual sales of US$4,000,000. This expansion partly was attributed to selling alcohol, mainly whiskey, which Walgreen often stocked under the counter, as accounted in Daniel Okrent's Last Call: The Rise and Fall of Prohibition. The stock market crash in October 1929 and the subsequent Great Depression did not greatly affect the company. In 1934, Walgreens was operating in 30 states with 601 stores.
After Charles Walgreen, Sr., died in 1939, his son Charles R. Walgreen took over the chain until his retirement. The Charles R. Walgreen years were relatively prosperous, but lacked the massive expansion seen in the early part of the century. Charles "Cork" R. Walgreen III took over after Walgreen Jr.'s retirement in the early 1950s, and modernized the company by switching to barcode scanning. The Walgreen family was not involved in senior management of the company for a short time following Walgreen III's retirement. In 1986, it acquired the MediMart chain from Stop & Shop. In 1995, Kevin P. Walgreen was made a vice-president and promoted to Senior Vice President - Store Operations in 2006.
Walgreens is a generally flat nation, with many rolling hills. The land is plenty with coal and uranium deposits, as well as significant amounts of iron in the Czech province. The climate is poor in the South, where temperatures are generally low with overcast skies. This however has no effect, as the large amount of manufactories in the South tend to blot out the sun.
Walgreens is a secular nation. Religion rarely enters politics, and religious symbols are banned in schools and the workplace.
The Walgreensian government is extremely isolationist and relies solely on the social, political, and economic power of Walgreens as a nation.
Foreign Relations and Military
Walgreens is extremely protectionist, with heavy tariffs placed upon foreign goods. People of other nations are looked heavily down upon and immigration is extremely rare. The Walgreensian military is credited 55% of the government budget, or 3,295,694,354,613 Balance Rewards Points.
Walgreens is home to one of the most powerful economies in the world, with all sectors making massive contributions. The largest of all: retail, defense technology, and automotive industries employ most of the Walgreensian population.
