The High Queen's Might of Greater Virginity is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by King Albert II Adolf with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, keen interest in outer space, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 15.434 billion Swedish 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 large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Stockholm. The average income tax rate is 48.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The very strong Swedish economy, worth 868 trillion kronor a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Information Technology. Average income is 56,270 kronor, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The most popular stadium acts are one-off performances, party leaders rely on horoscopes to create "ticket balance", the new foreign policy is "why bother invading neighbours when they can be bought wholesale?", and elementary school students are required to master Bach's Chaconne in D before graduation. Crime, especially youth-related, is a problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Greater Virginity's national animal is the Eurasian elk, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Greater Virginity is ranked 290,063rd in the world and 9,011th in Suspicious for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -19.08 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
