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

The Sadistic Republic of Bright Angel is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Johann der Becker with an iron fist, and notable for its disturbing lack of elderly people, parental licensing program, and rampant corporate plagiarism. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 42.368 billion Bright Angelians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Industry, Spirituality, and Education are also considered important, while Environment and Welfare receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Flagstaff. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Bright Angelian economy, worth a staggering 55,618 trillion zuchs 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Information Technology. 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 a breathtaking 1,312,736 zuchs, with the richest citizens earning 9.7 times as much as the poorest.

Withdrawal of support for drug addicts is leaving many with cold sweats, Johann der Becker often plays real life games of Tower Defense against hordes of angry villagers, citizens wouldn't recognise Johann der Becker if they passed one another on the street, and napalm is the tool of choice for disabling eco-unfriendly forestry operations. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Bright Angel's national animal is the red bearded woodchuck, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Veni vidi vici.

Bright Angel is ranked 293^rd in the world and 1^st in Macfora Forever for Highest Poor Incomes, with 378,799.63 Standard Monetary Units.
