The Principality of Helisweerde is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Princess Leontine I with an even hand, and renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, compulsory military service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, hard-working, devout population of 3.316 billion Helisweerders are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.
The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lagerhuizen. The average income tax rate is 30.1%.
The Helisweerder economy, worth 245 trillion Euros a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Information Technology. Average income is 74,124 Euros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.2 times as much as the poorest.
Shelters struggle to keep up with the endless intake of stray animals, newspapers are celebrating Princess Leontine I saving over a million cats from trees, park rangers struggle to deal with a rash of stolen pic-a-nic baskets, and armed security details escort librarians to their homes. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Helisweerde's national animal is the Seagull, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Protestant Christianity.
Helisweerde is ranked 100,323rd in the world and 816th in Europe for Highest Food Quality, scoring 23.01 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
