The Republic of Firyte

“Progress & Innovation”

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

The Republic of Firyte is a very large, genial nation, renowned for its smutty television, rampant corporate plagiarism, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 370 million Firyteans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 30.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Firytean economy, worth 31.1 trillion Caps a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 84,187 Caps, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Teenage TV characters are played by thirty-year-olds by the end of the second season, you need two tenors and a coloratura contralto to sing the national anthem properly, jumping in puddles after rainstorms has become an indoor activity, and immigrants are asked to leave their cultural traditions and pride at the border. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Firyte's national animal is the Dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Firyte is ranked 82,547^th in the world and 283^rd in The Leftist Assembly for Highest Average Incomes, with 84,187.9 Standard Monetary Units.
