The Republic of Finnish Archipelago is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Asgård with a fair hand, and notable for its daily referendums, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.005 billion Finnopelagoans love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Parainen. The average income tax rate is 82.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Finnopelagoan economy, worth 93.3 trillion Finnopelagoan marks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Book Publishing. Average income is 92,863 Finnopelagoan marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Finnish Archipelago has been recently classified as an international menace after 'liberating' several nearby territories, citizens are encouraged to report friends, family members or co-workers who seem depressed to the government for "counselling", incompetent former soldiers have been re-employed as incompetent cleaners and kitchen staff, and the nation has welcomed its expats back with open arms. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Finnish Archipelago's national animal is the grey seal, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Finnish Archipelago is ranked 54,511th in the world and 454th in Europe for Most Developed, scoring 76.16 on the Human Development Index.
