The Federal Republic of Piscantium

“Fishing For A Better Future”

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

The Federal Republic of Piscantium is a colossal, socially progressive nation, renowned for its smutty television, otherworldly petting zoo, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The compassionate population of 5.664 billion Piscantiumians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Administration, and Education. The average income tax rate is 69.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Piscantiumian economy, worth 422 trillion scales a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 74,678 scales, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The country is governed by a clique of political insiders known colloquially as The Establishment, doctors ask for written consent before making eye contact with patients, too many developers spoil the codebase, and cotton candy made from genuine cotton cellulose doesn't quite satisfy. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Piscantium's national animal is the heron, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Piscantium is ranked 54,615^th in the world and 1,198^th in the South Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 4,007.56 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
