Almost zero. Armored vehicles rarely exist in Frenequesta.

Extremely high, if anyone tried taxing them- we're a polycentric federation of autonomous associations.

Probability of a citizen getting away with tax evasion
Confederation of participatory-democratic autonomous municipalities. Market socialist economy, some cantons practicing participatory economics. Environmentally sustainable economy. Enormous civil liberties. Nuclear-armed and missile defense equipped, to protect our autonomy.

12%. Usually this happens if the person committing tax evasion does so with an offshore bank account. Otherwise we prosecute them to our maximum (which isn't even that high to begin with)

Probability of finding pesticides in the rivers and lakes of your nation?

The real question is, what won't you find in our rivers and lakes. After all, that's what they're there for, isn't it?

While gun ownership is very high; a high degree of training, strict laws on irresponsible firearms usage, harsh penalties for death or injury resulting from irresponsible firearms usage, and a "gun control means hitting your target every time" attitude keep it very low.

So close to 0% as to be functionally impossible. The fact that many people are armed and trained in addition to hash penalties (capital if the robber's armed - carrying a deadly weapon to commit a crime is considered intent to commit murder) go a long way towards that. Also, the populace being well educated and employeed also helps keep crime down in general.

Hard to say, but likely less than 20%. We're not sure if we have the kind of things people from Daistallia 2104 are into. Unless, of course, they're into skyscrapers, cars, guns, and... uh... nuclear power plants?

There is a reason why the KaMaRian police was happy that Hades and Hanin no longer play in the same league... certain lineups pretty much guarantee riots.

Probability of a nuclear meltdown (a la Chernobyl) in your nation?


Some form of nuclear meltdown will probably happen in Skorzenia eventually, if only because of the sheer number of active nuclear reactors we have. It's extremely unlikely to happen in the forseeable future, however, given the safety record of our power plants, and couldn't possibly turn out like Chernobyl given our safety precautions. Worst-case, we'll have to put a reactor into emergency shutdown, and end up with a reactor pool that we can't enter to repair or drain.
