The State of Formosa of Ancobristan is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Premier Kane Genxin with an iron fist, and remarkable for its frequent executions, strictly enforced bedtime, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 10.877 billion Formosans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order and Administration also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ansong. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 27.5%.
The very strong Formosan economy, worth a remarkable 1,071 trillion Credits a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Retail, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 98,522 Credits, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 349,972 per year while the poor average 19,987, a ratio of 17.5 to 1.
The automotive industry soaks up huge government handouts, withdrawal of support for drug addicts is leaving many with cold sweats, foreign governments regularly accuse the Formosan military of war crimes, and travel bureaus double as recruiting centers for national intelligence agencies. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ancobristan's national animal is the White Tiger, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Ancobristan is ranked 86,315th in the world and 1,044th in The East Pacific for Most Stationary, with 537.05119795368 days.
