The Republic of -Ophthalmology is a massive, efficient nation, notable for its disturbing lack of elderly people, pith helmet sales, and suspicion of poets. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 2.855 billion -Ophthalmologyians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.
The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 54.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The all-consuming -Ophthalmologyian economy, worth 307 trillion NKBS a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Furniture Restoration, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 107,641 NKBS, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Warfare increasingly resembles a video game, extreme hiring regulations mean a job in -Ophthalmology is often a lifetime appointment, internet moderators work overtime to remove memes comparing Leader to cartoon bears, and customer satisfaction with online delivery services is at an all time high. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. -Ophthalmology's national animal is the NKB.
-Ophthalmology is ranked 86,236th in the world and 832nd in Island of Hope for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 54.21 Effective Tax Rate.
