The Republic of SAMPEX is a mid-sized, pleasant nation, notable for its burgeoning elephant population. The hard-working population of 82 million SAMPEXians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 26.3%.
The SAMPEXian economy, worth 3.03 trillion pesos a year, is quite specialized and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 36,929 pesos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.
Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. SAMPEX's national animal is the elephant.
SAMPEX is ranked 149,604th in the world and 3rd in Space Telescopes for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 1,461.57 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
