Welcome Porto Leone



We welcome The Colony of Porto Leone (http://www.sunsetrpg.com/economystatistics.php?nation=Porto+Leone), as the 167th member nation state in 01 Eastern Roman Empire Region.

The Colony of Porto Leone is a small, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its strong anti-business politics. Its hard-working, cynical population of 8 million are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The medium-sized, corrupt government is effectively ruled by the Department of Law & Order, with areas such as Religion & Spirituality and Defence receiving almost no funds by comparison. The average income tax rate is 19%. Private enterprise is illegal, but for those in the know there is a slick and highly efficient black market in Woodchip Exports.
Elections have been outlawed. Crime is moderate, probably because of the country's utter lack of prisons. Porto Leone's national animal is the gavros, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the drachma.
