The Republic of Codename2 is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, ubiquitous missile silos, and ban on automobiles. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 11.111 billion Codename2ians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The large, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 46.1%.
The thriving Codename2ian economy, worth 708 trillion guilders a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Pizza Delivery, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 63,725 guilders, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.5 times as much as the poorest.
Gun ownership is compulsory, news editors who eschew the state-approved superlatives for describing Leader tend to disappear, taxpayers cringe whenever someone brings up the Former Antagonist Reparations Treaty, and wars of expansion are described as "peacekeeping operations". Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Codename2's national animal is the cow, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Codename2 is ranked 202,372nd in the world and 3,352nd in Artificial Solar System for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -2.17 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
