The State of Elm Shunk

“Odd”

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

The State of Elm Shunk is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, democratic population of 25.069 billion Elm Shunkians 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, prioritizes Industry, with Education also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Welfare receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Westminster. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.0%.

The very strong Elm Shunkian economy, worth a remarkable 1,020 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is fairly diversified and led by the Furniture Restoration industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Gambling, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 40,704 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 276,738 per year while the poor average 2,187, a ratio of 126 to 1.

The country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, the government is avowedly atheist, a large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, and Elm Shunk has designated Westminster as its capital city. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Elm Shunk's national animal is the deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Elm Shunk is ranked 198,639^th in the world and 4^th in Tunis for Most Corrupt Governments, with 1.38 kickbacks per hour.
