Overview

The Kingdom of Portrigh is a small, socially progressive nation, notable for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 12 million have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government concentrates mainly on Commerce, although Law & Order and Healthcare are secondary priorities. The average income tax rate is 26%, but much higher for the wealthy. A large private sector is led by the Basket Weaving, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining industries.

College students make ends meet by selling their kidneys, all tariffs have been abolished, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, and the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit. Crime is moderate. Portrigh's national animal is the Sheep and its currency is the Cullin.
