The Kill of Bury Me is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, ritual sacrifices, and devotion to social welfare. The cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.535 billion Bury Means 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 large, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 72.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Bury Mean economy, worth 826 trillion bury us 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 large, well-organized, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Basket Weaving. 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 an impressive 126,488 bury us, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.
Brave curators do battle with disorganised government libraries, one does not simply walk into the tundra, all industry is owned and run by the government, and the long arm of the law possesses a rather slow hand. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bury Me's national animal is the bury me, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Bury Me is ranked 162,520th in the world and 359th in Stereo Hearts for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 34,910.85 Standard Monetary Units.
