The Kingdom of Finland State is a massive, safe nation, notable for its burgeoning lion population. The democratic population of 1.541 billion Finns 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 22.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but inefficient Finnish economy, worth 52.4 trillion markkaa a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 33,995 markkaa, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.
Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Finland State's national animal is the lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Finland State is ranked 240,772nd in the world and 5th in Empire of Scandinavia for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring zero on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
