The Republic of Absolute communism81 is a colossal, cultured nation, renowned for its parental licensing program, free-roaming dinosaurs, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.015 billion Absolute communism81ians 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, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 74.8%.
The frighteningly efficient Absolute communism81ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,042 trillion guilders a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 173,265 guilders, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.
Children have nightmares about the eerie red glow and constant whirring of newly-installed machines, sneezing pedestrians are grabbed by alley-lurking doctors, prison walls have had to be modified to keep parkour-trained criminals from escaping, and serial commas clarify the relationship between one's lackeys, the taxpayers, and kinsfolk. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Absolute communism81's national animal is the crocodile, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.
Absolute communism81 is ranked 112,006th in the world and 1,640th in Osiris for Most Stationary, with 354.73580074672 days.
