The Kingdom of Altanar is a tiny, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its absence of drug laws. Its compassionate population of 5 million are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The government -- a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass -- concentrates mainly on Social Welfare, although Healthcare and Education are on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 40%, but much higher for the wealthy. A very small private sector is dominated by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry.

Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown. Altanar's national animal is the altanar eagle, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the solari.
