Nation/The Fing Motherland

The Superpower of The Fing Motherland is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Leon Trotsky with an even hand, and remarkable for its unlimited-speed roads, sprawling nuclear power plants, and complete lack of prisons. The compassionate, devout population of 4.147 billion Soviets enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated. The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Moscow. The average income tax rate is 51.2%, and even higher for the wealthy. The frighteningly efficient Soviet economy, worth 496 trillion Dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 119,628 Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest. Factories are regularly demolished to make way for low-cost housing areas, a ban on unsolicited cold calling in all forms is in effect, Soviet Bear is one of the most popular forenames in The Fing Motherland, and government officials are held to the highest standard of morality. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Fing Motherland's national animal is the Soviet Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Russian Orthodox.
