The People's Republic of Ayumi Hamasaki is a gargantuan, cultured nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space, sprawling nuclear power plants, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, devout population of 20.292 billion Ayumis 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 enormous government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ayumi Land. The average income tax rate is 79.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The powerhouse Ayumi Hamasakian economy, worth a remarkable 1,494 trillion Yen a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Basket Weaving, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 73,630 Yen, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.
Government officials frequently cut taxes as a distraction from antics with their secretaries, birth rates have hit an all-time low, expensive lawyers are hired to defend citizens in court for public urination charges against their pets, and soldiers are now trained how to make sandwiches properly. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ayumi Hamasaki's national animal is the Tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Ayumi Hamasaki is ranked 7,615th in the world and 3rd in The Shadowlands for Most Stationary, with 2,686.54687783112 days.
