Kingdom of Hedmark
"For Hedmark - Loyal and united with the times"
Location: Nyverlden
Regional Influence: Minnow
The Kingdom of Hedmark is a tiny, pleasant nation, renowned for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 7 million 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 large, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Healthcare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 22%. A large private sector is led by the Uranium Mining industry, followed by Book Publishing and Pizza Delivery.
Voting is voluntary, a well-funded social safety net protects the unfortunate, and the right to free speech is being drastically curtailed. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is relatively low, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Hedmark's national animal is the Golden Eagle, and its currency is the Hedmark Krona.
Hedmark is ranked 75,419th in the world for Most Corrupt Governments, scoring 3 on the Mugabe Relativity Rating.
