The Republic of Faustanistan is a very large, safe nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, zero percent divorce rate, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 185 million Faustanistanians 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 large, moralistic government prioritizes Law & Order, with Administration, Spirituality, and Defense also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Welfare aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 37.3%.
The very strong Faustanistanian economy, worth 10.2 trillion francs a year, is quite specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 55,138 francs, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 157,135 per year while the poor average 15,430, a ratio of 10.2 to 1.
Denied drugs and entertainment the nation's youth are taking to petty crime to alleviate their boredom, the nation's hospitals are criticized for caring more about profits than patients, a little pushing and pulling is needed for big ships to pass, and victims of crime are viewed as less trustworthy than politicians. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Faustanistan's national animal is the falcon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.
Faustanistan is ranked 141,591st in the world and 31st in Wallsocket for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 37.34 Effective Tax Rate.
