The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 73.7%.
The frighteningly efficient Cardmania900168ian economy, worth a remarkable 2,072 trillion Euros a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, and Cheese Exports.
