“Peace, Unity, Freedom”

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

The Unrecognized State of Biafra is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu with an iron fist, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, frequent executions, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 27.421 billion Biafrans 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 government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Enugu. The average income tax rate is 36.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Biafran economy, worth a remarkable 4,985 trillion biafran Pounds a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Gambling, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 181,822 biafran Pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.

Students who refuse to pray are expelled from school, they unpaved paradise and tore up a parking lot (ooh, bop bop bop), dentists routinely perform open heart surgery, and prime real estate is devoted to wind farms and solar energy generators. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Biafra's national animal is the Bird, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Biafra is ranked 149,719^th in the world and 105^th in Africa for Most Extreme, scoring 19.07 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
