The Holy Empire of Red Burns is a tiny, economically powerful nation, notable for its complete absence of social welfare. Its hard-nosed, hard-working population of 5 million are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.
The minute government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Religion & Spirituality, and Commerce. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Gambling industries.
Crime is a serious problem. Red Burns's national animal is the fish, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the coin.
I just started it now, so I haven't had enough time for hardcore oppression.
