Heavens Peak

FlagHeavensPeak5.pngns Peak
The Olympian Empire of Heavens Peak is a huge, safe nation, ruled by Aphrodite and Zeus with an iron fist, and notable for its prohibition of alcohol. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 916 million are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Defence, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Heavens Peak. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 85%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, followed by Information Technology and Uranium Mining.

Motorists' locations are constantly tracked by intelligence and law enforcement agencies, citizens are regularly arrested in queues for 'loitering', speaking out against the government is punishable by flogging, and the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Heavens Peak's national animal is the Eagle, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Guilder.
