The United States of Spellmania
"I'm broke"
UN Category: Liberal Democratic Socialists
Civil Rights: Below Average Economy: Fair Political Freedoms: Superb
Location: the South Pacific
The United States of Spellmania is a tiny, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its burgeoning worm population. Its hard-nosed, intelligent
population of 5 million love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the
merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.
The enormous, corrupt government concentrates mainly on Law & Order, although Healthcare and Social Welfare are on the agenda. The average income tax
rate is 37%, but much higher for the wealthy. A tiny private sector is dominated by the Information Technology industry.
Crime is relatively low, thanks to a well-funded police force. Spellmania's national animal is the worm, which frolics freely in the nation's many
lush forests, and its currency is the money.
