The Kingdom of The Vanishing Shores is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Endwyr with an even hand, and renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate population of 5.586 billion Vanishing Shoresians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.
The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Emberholde. The average income tax rate is 88.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Vanishing Shoresian economy, worth 779 trillion Gems a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 139,550 Gems, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.
Studio executives abandon tragic stories of star-crossed lovers because "it's been done", the government raises tariffs on a weekly basis, recognizing the Vanishing Shoresian flag qualifies you for citizenship, and drug deals return to the streets as legions of undercover officers stalk the dark web. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Vanishing Shores's national animal is the Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
The Vanishing Shores is ranked 13,822nd in the world and 41st in Wintreath for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 9,109.23 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
