Short about the nation

The United States of Schnabo is a small, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its burgeoning Schnaboon population. Its hard-nosed, intelligent population of 8 million enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The large, corrupt government concentrates mainly on Social Welfare, although Law & Order and Education are secondary priorities. The average income tax rate is 25%, but much higher for the wealthy. A small private sector is dominated by the Trout Farming industry.

The alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, euthanasia is legal, Schnaboons are considered a delicacy, and the death penalty has been reintroduced. Crime is moderate. Schnabo's national animal is the Schnaboon, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the Schnab.


The national day is Nov 22, the day of the nations founding.
