The Thank u freen of Fish and Whistle is a massive, orderly nation, notable for its zero percent divorce rate, irreverence towards religion, and suspicion of poets. The compassionate, hard-working, cynical population of 3.663 billion Fish and Whistleans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The medium-sized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Industry, and Education are also considered important, while International Aid isn't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 41.5%.
The all-consuming Fish and Whistlean economy, worth 322 trillion whistles a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 88,080 whistles, with the richest citizens earning 7.1 times as much as the poorest.
The roads are notorious throughout the region for their peril, politicians bribe ten-year-old geniuses to sit their aptitude tests, nothing gets the party jumping like Leader specifying how high, and the arms industry is backed by government subsidies and harsh anti-protest laws are in place. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fish and Whistle's national animal is the fish.
Fish and Whistle is ranked 72,570th in the world and 843rd in Artificial Solar System for Highest Poor Incomes, with 30,431.19 Standard Monetary Units.
