The Sultanate of Esotonya is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its avowedly heterosexual populace and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, devout population of 13.727 billion Esotonyans are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.
The medium-sized, moralistic government prioritizes Law & Order, with Administration, Education, and Healthcare also on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 28.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The large but inefficient Esotonyan economy, worth 532 trillion Platinums a year, is quite specialized and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 38,767 Platinums, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Leader is called 'Patches' at international summits, it takes months to get the proper permits for a child's first tricycle, advertisements read like science journal articles complete with extensive references, and only the rich can afford the latest medical innovations. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Esotonya's national animal is the Zebra, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Esotonya is ranked 250,896th in the world and 15th in The Trident Alliance for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 27,796.33 Standard Monetary Units.
