The Empire of Euro 151

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

The Empire of Euro 151 is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its enslaved workforce, infamous sell-swords, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.741 billion Euro 151ians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 67.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Euro 151ian economy, worth 808 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 slick, highly efficient, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, Woodchip Exports, and Information Technology. 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 119,972 Cards, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Boats straying just metres away from the shore will raise the ire of the Coast Guard, fancy dress parties are raided by military police for new recruits, counselors diagnose their clients with motherboard complexes, and school uniforms are compulsory. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Euro 151's national animal is the Raven, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Euro 151 is ranked 40,772^nd in the world and 215^th in Memeland United for Most Beautiful Environments, with 740.32 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
