The Federal Republic of The Highland Union is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by PM Paul DeGraff with an even hand, and notable for its national health service, punitive income tax rates, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate population of 6.882 billion Highlanders enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.
The large government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Warwick. The average income tax rate is 81.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Highlandic economy, worth a remarkable 1,042 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 151,514 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The latest electric jet fighter has almost enough battery charge to reach cruising altitude -- provided you don't use the radar, the "right of sanctuary" stops police pursuit into temples and churches, defense lawyers suggestively note to juries how flagrantly happy victims were, and several citizens have complained about scientists abducting their pets for experimentation. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Highland Union's national animal is the gryphon, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
The Highland Union is ranked 13,344th in the world and 563rd in The North Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 95.68 law-abiding acts per hour.
