The Republic of Alcholics and Wastrels is a tiny, socially progressive nation, notable for its absence of drug laws. Its hard-nosed, hard-working population of 5 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Social Welfare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 16%. A robust private sector is led by the Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Pizza Delivery industries.

Crime is a problem, and the police force struggles against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Alcholics and Wastrels's national animal is the skunk and its currency is the triple whiskey.
