Nation/Fischiabotto

he Theocracy of Fischiabotto is a tiny, genial nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, frequent executions, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 8 million Fischiabottesi are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Defense, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 62.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The fragile Fischiabottese economy, worth 183 billion Tappoes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 22,954 Tappoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Some electoral districts are without a representative as they are stuck with perpetual revotes, expensive lawyers are hired to defend citizens in court for public urination charges against their pets, rural communities are all but disenfranchised as politicians focus all their attention on winning the deciding urban votes, and the government is spending more on exports to Brasilistan than it's receiving from tariffs on the imports. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fischiabotto's national animal is the Cornacchia, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Fischiabotto is ranked 73,171st in the world and 1st in Repubblica di Banana for Nudest, with 135 Cheeks Per Square Mile.
