The Confederacy of South Alessandria is a fledgling, safe nation, remarkable for its burgeoning Panda population. The devout population of 5 million South Alessandrians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 41.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The developing South Alessandrian economy, worth 164 billion PPES a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 32,869 PPES, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. South Alessandria's national animal is the Panda, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
South Alessandria is ranked 64,688th in the world and 2,675th in the West Pacific for Largest Mining Sector, scoring 2,833.19 on the Blue Sky Asbestos Index.
