The Free Land of Euro 107

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

The Free Land of Euro 107 is a colossal, efficient nation, remarkable for its public floggings, frequent executions, and state-planned economy. The hard-nosed, devout population of 6.712 billion Euro 107ians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 49.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Euro 107ian economy, worth 748 trillion Cards a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 111,563 Cards, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Children in school playgrounds can be heard chanting the hymns of the Order of Violet, evenings at university debating societies often end with everyone acknowledging both sides may well be right, "What's the Frequency, Leader?" is a favorite phrase of backyard radio broadcasters when interrupting official diplomatic channels, and the government is pouring money into 'Operation Enduring Democracy'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Euro 107's national animal is the Raven, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Euro 107 is ranked 37,570^th in the world and 186^th in Memeland United for Most Beautiful Environments, with 764.53 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
