The State of Duwamish River

“Might Makes Right”

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

The State of Duwamish River is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by the Governor with a fair hand, and notable for its irreverence towards religion, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 16.846 billion Duwamish Riverians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is primarily concerned with Defense, although Healthcare, Welfare, and Public Transport are also considered important, while Spirituality and Social Policy aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.7%.

The Duwamish Riverian economy, worth 790 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Arms Manufacturing, and Gambling. Average income is 46,949 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 319,198 per year while the poor average 2,522, a ratio of 126 to 1.

The alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, the tenet of free speech is held dear, Duwamish River has designated Capital Heights as its capital city, and The Governor has just been declared ruler of Duwamish River in an international press conference. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Duwamish River's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Duwamish River is ranked 50,464^th in the world and 2^nd in Seattle for Highest Food Quality, scoring 33.32 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
