The City of Stavanger is a gargantuan, efficient nation, notable for its compulsory military service. The hard-working population of 29.159 billion Stavangerians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government prioritizes Defense, with Industry, Law & Order, and Education also on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 19.6%.

The very strong Stavangerian economy, worth a remarkable 1,251 trillion kroner a year, is quite specialized and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Furniture Restoration, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 42,923 kroner, with the richest citizens earning 5.4 times as much as the poorest.

The government is seen to favor Catholics, the government is slowly introducing social welfare programs, education and welfare spending are on the rise, and military spending is on the increase. Crime is moderate. Stavanger's national animal is the whale.

Stavanger is ranked 113,871^st in the world and 4^th in Norway for Nicest Citizens, with 13.62 average smiles per day.
