The Republic of Fake communism96 is a colossal, orderly nation, remarkable for its enslaved workforce, prohibition of alcohol, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 6.519 billion Fake communism96ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 84.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Fake communism96ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,372 trillion dollars 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Furniture Restoration. 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 amazing 210,471 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.
Hordes of faceless civil servants are running cities, no-one can foil the ambitions of Big Aluminium, kids are arrested at gunpoint for playing with toy rifles, and the overhead luggage compartment is often full. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fake communism96's national animal is the horse, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Fake communism96 is ranked 10,404th in the world and 619th in Osiris for Lowest Crime Rates, with 100.29 law-abiding acts per hour.
