The Republic of Storm Alpha is a massive, pleasant nation, renowned for its burgeoning Idinist population. The hard-working population of 1.063 billion Storm Alphans 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 Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 16.1%.

The Storm Alphan economy, worth 49.7 trillion Idinists a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Trout Farming, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 46,712 Idinists, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Storm Alpha's national animal is the Idinist.

Storm Alpha is ranked 215,284^th in the world and 3,510^th in eta for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 288.59 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
