The Grand Duchy of Notschwitzerland

The Grand Duchy of Notscwhitzerland is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Duke Cheifwezsck Edbergt Wohler with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, ubiquitous missile silos, and pith helmet sales. The devout population of 1.943 billion Notschwitzerlandians 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Oswizcien. The average income tax rate is 19.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Notscwhitzerlandian economy, worth 188 trillion Schwitzes a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 96,884 Schwitzes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
