The Republic of Skylar is a titanic, socially progressive nation, notable for its burgeoning Rattlesnake population. The hard-working, cynical population of 20.451 billion Skylarians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.
The relatively small, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 15.9%.
The Skylarian economy, worth 974 trillion Dollars a year, is led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 47,643 Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.
Elections have been outlawed, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, punitive tariffs protect local industry, and census workers struggle to account for the rapidly increasing number of citizens to tabulate. Crime is moderate. Skylar's national animal is the Rattlesnake.
Skylar is ranked 195,660th in the world and 93rd in Jenny for Most Developed, scoring 53.12 on the Human Development Index.
