The Great and Glorious Empire of CommunistNationOfTaxation is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Admiral Tacos with an iron fist, and notable for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, cynical population of 3.4 billion Empire of the Communist Nation Of Taxations are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The tiny, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Communist Central. The average income tax rate is 7.4%.

The CommunistNationOfTaxationian economy, worth 236 trillion Communist Dollar-aka-5 AUDS a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is 69,650 Communist Dollar-aka-5 AUDS, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.

Sniffer dogs are trained to follow clouds of fruity-smelling vapor, statues of famous citizens are erected or demolished on a purely partisan basis, corporate lawyers are joyfully combing through the new tax code for any new loopholes for their clients, and Taco-ism has been named as CommunistNationOfTaxation's national religion. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control. CommunistNationOfTaxation's national animal is the Dragon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Taco-ism.
