The Commonwealth of Volentir is a tiny, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its frequent executions and compulsory military service. The quiet, industrious population of 7 million Volentirians 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 Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 29.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The Volentirian economy, worth 261 billion Marcs a year, is led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Retail, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 37,292 Marcs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.
Pigs can fly but only in Economy Class, police officers that upset their bosses get assigned to 24 hour stakeouts of bike sheds, finders keepers is the law of the land, and adults have never outgrown their fear of monsters. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Volentir's national animal is the Turkey, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Volentir is ranked 171,023rd in the world and 208th in The League for Highest Poor Incomes, with 22,932.2 Standard Monetary Units.
