The Celtic Republic of Albaaa is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Prime Minister Imogen McInnis with a fair hand, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, keen interest in outer space, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 13.385 billion Celtics 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 large, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Edinburgh. The average income tax rate is 52.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Albaaan economy, worth 924 trillion punts a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Basket Weaving, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 69,053 punts, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Kids these days know how to throw a proper punch, the government subsidizes those who produce the worst results, diplomats agree to the terms and conditions of peace treaties without reading them, and people transfer their assets to bank accounts in Manamana before getting divorced. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Albaaa's national animal is the turkey, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Presbyterianism.

Albaaa is ranked 87,603^rd in the world and 1^st in New Rp for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 52.37 Effective Tax Rate.
