Hee, well I've only just gotten into it ![](/art/smile.gif)
The Republic of Tripletsia is a tiny, safe nation, renowned for its devotion to social welfare. Its hard-nosed, intelligent population of 5 million love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Social Welfare, Healthcare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 45%, but much higher for the wealthy. A very small private sector is led by the Book Publishing industry, followed by Gambling and Trout Farming.
Crime is well under control, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tripletsia's national animal is the frog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the romcom.
