“Grudges Remain, Sanctions Persist”

Overview • Dispatches • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Eternal Realm of Kingdom of Time is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by King Clyde with an even hand, and notable for its pith helmet sales, national health service, and parental licensing program. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 2.004 billion Tickers have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Surbe City. The average income tax rate is 74.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Tickerial economy, worth 435 trillion Naroes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 217,263 Naroes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Everyone hates people who encourage hate, under love's heavy burden King Clyde sinks lower in the political right's esteem, on graduation day the hats thrown in the air fly high enough to stun passing pigeons, and beating enemies to death with a baseball bat is legal if done within nine innings. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kingdom of Time's national animal is the White Fox, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Kingdom of Time is ranked 62,849^th in the world and 1,453^rd in The North Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 22.41 flags saluted per person per day.
