My Kingdom:
The Kingdom of Sagunto is a very large, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its punitive income tax rates. Its compassionate population of 130 million have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Social Welfare, Education, and Defence. The average income tax rate is 65%, and even higher for the wealthy. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising fourteen-year-old boys selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.
The government is avowedly atheist, voting is voluntary, the nation is ravaged by daily union strikes, and euthanasia is illegal. Crime is totally unknown. Sagunto's national animal is the Espinete, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the Euro.
