The Democratic Republic of Mancidonia

“Nullus honor superior quam servitus”

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

The Democratic Republic of Mancidonia is a huge, efficient nation, notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, irreverence towards religion, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 316 million Mancidonians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The relatively small, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.2%.

The all-consuming Mancidonian economy, worth 27.7 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Tourism. Average income is 87,676 dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 300,137 per year while the poor average 18,818, a ratio of 15.9 to 1.

The automobile industry is sitting up and taking notice of the new 24 hour race events... as are the track's sleepless neighbours, agriculture is heavily subsidized by the government, the army is spending millions cloning khaki-colored dinosaurs, and entire families swing in the wind at the national gallows. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mancidonia's national animal is the wedge-tailed eagle, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Mancidonia is ranked 4,306^th in the world and 27^th in Europe for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 8,813.32 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
