The Republic of Card Farmer 42

“Card Farming”

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

The Republic of Card Farmer 42 is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its pith helmet sales, digital currency, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 7.889 billion Card Farmer 42ians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 74.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Card Farmer 42ian economy, worth 995 trillion cards 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, Tourism, and Automobile Manufacturing. 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 126,179 cards, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A murderous reputation can revitalise a flagging celebrity career, children usually cry on their first day of school, it is believed that belligerence is a passing phase foreign leaders will soon outgrow, and women who can do math in their head are burned for witchcraft. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Card Farmer 42's national animal is the farming, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Card Farmer 42 is ranked 29,288^th in the world and 735^th in Birb for Smartest Citizens, with 49.52 quips per hour.
