The Colony of Cygnus 060 is a massive, safe nation, notable for its smutty television, suspicion of poets, and stringent health and safety legislation. The quiet, industrious population of 4.037 billion Cygnus 060ians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 27.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The Cygnus 060ian economy, worth 200 trillion Saiphs a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Cheese Exports, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 49,588 Saiphs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.
The fattest folk in Cygnus 060 look to be the happiest ones, Leader's new door-knocking campaign has the sweet taste of success, it can be a real jungle in a modern courtroom, and acute politicians deride opposition members for being obtuse. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cygnus 060's national animal is the Bellatrix, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Cygnus 060 is ranked 286,687th in the world and 13,638th in Lazarus for Smartest Citizens, with 19.06 quips per hour.
