Overview
Allinburg is a massive, efficient nation, led by Josh Morrison (see Infobox) with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, democratic, humorless, devout population of 1.986 billion Allinburgias (see Infobox) 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 medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Berwin, with Torrinian being the largest city and the financial capital (see Infobox). The average income tax rate is 93.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.
Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Allinburg's national animal is the Kitler, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Trendism. It currently resides in Technologica, and is also the current WA Delegate (see Infobox).
Economy
The frighteningly efficient Allinburgia economy, worth 398 trillion Sterlins (§) a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Soda Sales, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 200,397 Sterlins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens. The exchange rate is US$1 = §0.5862 = US$1.7059.[1](1.) Allinburg has the Largest Trade Deficit in Tecnologica.[2](2.)
Etymology
The word Allinburg came from the ancient nations Gwall (the evil side) and Inburg (the good side). They were rivals, advancing their technology to become more superior. That reached its peak when both nntions declared war against each other, starting the Allinburgian Civil War in 1733. The war lasted for 35 years until Gwall surrendered on February 10, 1768. Inburg, under Jerr Herry, ordered Gwall to be merged with its neighbor, creating Allinburg. The merger finished on February 13, 1768, the day of independence.
