“Through dirt and mud, still fighting.”

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

The People's Republic of Behemothe is a large, genial nation, renowned for its keen interest in outer space, sprawling nuclear power plants, and state-planned economy. The compassionate population of 180 million Behemotheans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 72.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Behemothean economy, worth 12.4 trillion Behemothean Rubles a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Cheese Exports, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 69,089 Behemothean Rubles, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Captains must wait until all rats are safe before jumping ship, the government single-handedly sustains the bunk bed market, the government has adopted a "Lightning Never Strikes Twice" approach to dealing with natural disasters, and the nation turns a blind eye to human rights abuses in its quest for athletic supremacy. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Behemothe's national animal is the Sika Deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Behemothe is ranked 263,875^th in the world and 829^th in Carcassonne for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 3,079.67 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
