The Fiefdom of Edmontonsuck is a tiny, economically powerful nation, notable for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 6 million are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.
There is no government in the normal sense of the word; however, a small group of community-minded, corrupt, pro-business individuals devotes most of its attentions to Law & Order, with areas such as Social Welfare and Religion & Spirituality receiving almost no funds by comparison. Income tax is unheard of. A robust private sector is led by the Furniture Restoration, Gambling, and Information Technology industries.
Elections have been outlawed. Crime is a serious problem. Edmontonsuck's national animal is the oil slug, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the wood chip.
Edmontonsuck is ranked 2nd in the region and 20,735th in the world for Largest Gambling Industries.
