The Region of South-America is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its burgeoning TBD population. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 23.759 billion South Americans 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 Industry, International Aid, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 37.4%.

The South American economy, worth 790 trillion TBDS a year, is quite specialized and led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Soda Sales, Information Technology, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 33,253 TBDS, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Voting is voluntary. Crime is moderate. South-America's national animal is the TBD, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

South-America is ranked 227,590^th in the world and 57^th in South America for Lowest Crime Rates, with 56.28 law-abiding acts per hour.
