The Holy Empire of Salvation Cost is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its rampant corporate plagiarism, daily referendums, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 22.368 billion Salvation Costians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Healthcare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 69.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The large but stagnant Salvation Costian economy, worth 280 trillion talents a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Basket Weaving, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 12,523 talents, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The government recently relinquished its monopoly on the mail service, the mining industry has taken a hit from tighter environmental regulations, prime commercial land is being swamped with archaeological teams, and the Salvation Cost Automotive Racing Series draws millions of spectators annually while those near the tracks complain about the noise. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Salvation Cost's national animal is the dove.
Salvation Cost is ranked 175,114th in the world and 106th in Equilism for Most Stationary, with 89.23422761228 days.
