Borderlands is a minuscule region, inhabited by a few solitary nations.
The straight-backed, broad-smiling populace of Borderlands eagerly dismissed concerns of oppression. Political freedoms are extended only to close friends and relatives of the leaders of the region's governments. The economy of the region is remarkably unremarkable, with members being neither powerhouses nor basket cases. Denizens tend to pay their taxes quickly and quietly, with a median tax rate of 11%. The economies of nations in the region tend to be heavily weighted towards the private sector, with on average 28% of the economy comprising the public sector. Commerce is a priority for governments, accounting for an average of 4% of public expenditure.
In Borderlands, denizens are afforded a reasonable education, although funding is somewhat wanting. The region's law enforcement officials try hard to combat a relatively high level of crime, but are hampered by a lack of funding. Denizens have well-funded defense forces. Public transport is an afterthought, with only -1% of total government budgets in the region being devoted to it.
Governments in Borderlands find themselves in a constant state of disarray, with very little co-ordination, only -1% on average of government budgets being devoted to Administration. Governments generally endow their healthcare departments with a large amount of funding, with an average of 6% of government budgets across the region being devoted to healthcare. Welfare is a large part of government expenditure, with denizens amply provided for. Spirituality is an obsession of governments in the region, with a relatively very high average of 7% of government budgets being devoted to Spirituality.
Social inequality is rife amongst the nations within Borderlands. The environments of the nations in the region are almost universally appalling.
