The Commonwealth of Norrs is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its punitive income tax rates, suspicion of poets, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 3.703 billion Norr are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.
The large, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Spirituality, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Loire. The average income tax rate is 51.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The large but underdeveloped Norr economy, worth 114 trillion Commonwealth Dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 30,865 Commonwealth Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Norrs has designated Loire as its capital city. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Norrs's national animal is the Imperial Amphiptere, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Norrs is ranked 222,122nd in the world and 60th in Violetia for Most Primitive, scoring -98.74 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
