Introduction
The Principality of Sindarfalas is a very large, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its strong anti-business politics. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 184 million are known throughout the region for their efficiency and work ethic, as well as their general suspicion of leisure.
The government -- a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, moralistic morass -- juggles the competing demands of Social Welfare, Education, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 32%. Private enterprise is illegal, but for those in the know there is a slick and highly efficient black market in Furniture Restoration.
Voting is voluntary, nudity is frowned upon, corporations donate huge sums of money to favored politicians, and citizens select which government department gets their income tax Sindari Credits each year. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is relatively low, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sindarfalas's national animal is the Hyppogryph, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Sindari Credit.
