The Republic of Energized Puppet 26 is a massive, genial nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, disturbing lack of elderly people, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cynical, humorless, devout population of 3.733 billion Energized Puppet 26ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.
The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 57.6%.
The frighteningly efficient Energized Puppet 26ian economy, worth 397 trillion NRGS a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Automobile Manufacturing, and Information Technology. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 106,546 NRGS, with the richest citizens earning 7.2 times as much as the poorest.
Scavengers with burlap sacks and shovels skulk around graveyards, theatre may or may not be changing for the better but it is being changed for good, the government regularly hires contractors to construct high rise apartments, and an aboriginal talking stick is used for leaders' debates at election time. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Energized Puppet 26's national animal is the NRG DRINK, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Energized Puppet 26 is ranked 27,232nd in the world and 1,711th in Osiris for Largest Timber Woodchipping Industry, scoring 6,938.96 on the Tasmanian Pulp Environmental Export Index.
