The Principality of Incense is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Angmar with a fair hand, and notable for its national health service, keen interest in outer space, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 29.894 billion Ivoreans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.
The enormous, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Amber Blood and Gold. The average income tax rate is 99.1%.
The frighteningly efficient Incensean economy, worth a remarkable 6,273 trillion Sickles a year, is highly specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 209,873 Sickles, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
