The Principality of Saint Barrca is a huge, safe nation, remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, museums and concert halls, and barren, inhospitable landscape. The compassionate, hard-working, devout population of 791 million Saint Barrcans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and look forward to their next free and open election, to be held on an as-yet unannounced date.
The relatively small government prioritizes Spirituality, with Education, Welfare, and Administration also on the agenda, while Industry and Environment receive no funds. The average income tax rate is 19.8%.
The Saint Barrcan economy, worth 43.5 trillion Pounds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Woodchip Exports, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 54,997 Pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.
The religious lobby has the power of veto over health initiatives, Leader has just been declared ruler of Saint Barrca in an international press conference, condos feature wall-mounted cages containing endangered animals, and whales in captivity live in little more than glorified goldfish bowls. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Saint Barrca's national animal is the Hound, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Saint Barrca is ranked 128,250th in the world and 173rd in Aesica for Smartest Citizens, with 32.66 quips per hour.
