The Democratic Republic of Isle of Wind is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Sofie with a fair hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, hatred of cheese, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.4 billion Windians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.
The enormous, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Airyn. The average income tax rate is 92.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Isle of Windian economy, worth 146 trillion vents a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 104,832 vents, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Promising seven years of bad luck leads to seven years of community service, the nation's apology for those it has executed in the last year has come a little late for some, people who stay late at the office often come home to find their own funeral being planned, and elementary school students are required to master Bach's Chaconne in D before graduation. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Isle of Wind's national animal is the flying fish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.
Isle of Wind is ranked 284,202nd in the world and 107th in Liberal Democratic Union for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -12.17 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
