The Grand Duchy of Cardmania9003

“I'm Not Dead Yet!”

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

The Grand Duchy of Cardmania9003 is a gargantuan, efficient nation, notable for its compulsory military service, free-roaming dinosaurs, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 11.09 billion Cardmania9003ians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 81.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Cardmania9003ian economy, worth a remarkable 2,469 trillion Monies a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Automobile Manufacturing, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 222,633 Monies, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

All children's clothes come in only cream and off-white to prevent offense, libraries are now installed with jacuzzis and mini-bars, stony-faced prosecutors play loud gangster rap music during court proceedings, and adulthood begins with the creation of an email account. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cardmania9003's national animal is the Zebra, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Cardmania9003 is ranked 4,559^th in the world and 1^st in The Realm of Karoow for Most Corrupt Governments, with 238.36 kickbacks per hour.
