The People's Republic of West-Amber is a colossal, socially progressive nation, notable for its burgeoning eagle population. The quiet, industrious population of 3.253 billion West-Amberians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.
The medium-sized, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 22.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but underdeveloped West-Amberian economy, worth 88.4 trillion kronor a year, is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Soda Sales, Woodchip Exports, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 27,175 kronor, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Crime is relatively low. West-Amber's national animal is the eagle.
West-Amber is ranked 166,378th in the world and 4th in The Dark Forest for Smartest Citizens, with 27.77 quips per hour.
