The Republic of BEFORE ESCADE COULD DOSS HIM VINNY is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, restrictive gun laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical population of 12.662 billion Vinnies are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The enormous, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 60.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but stagnant Vinny economy, worth 99.0 trillion Emotions 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 a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Book Publishing, Cheese Exports, Uranium Mining, and Retail. 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 7,821 Emotions, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. BEFORE ESCADE COULD DOSS HIM VINNY's national animal is the Vampire, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
BEFORE ESCADE COULD DOSS HIM VINNY is ranked 118,203rd in the world and 1,064th in Artificial Solar System for Lowest Crime Rates, with 63.89 law-abiding acts per hour.
