Bonechain

The Craziest of the Craziest of Bonechain is a massive, economically powerful nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape. Its hard-nosed, hard-working population of 2.083 billion 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.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Defence, Law & Order, and Commerce. The average income tax rate is 74%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Uranium Mining industry, followed by Arms Manufacturing and Automobile Manufacturing.

The nation has an international reputation for compassion, the wearing and manufacture of fur apparel is banned, flash floods that dams could have controlled regularly ravage small towns in mountain valleys, and the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bonechain's national animal is the cougar, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the richest in the world.
