The Constitutional Monarchy of Fish Knife is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its compulsory vegetarianism, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and enforced nudity. The compassionate, hard-working, cynical population of 13.127 billion Fish Knifeans 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, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Law & Order, although Industry, Public Transport, and Defense are also considered important, while Environment receives no funds. The average income tax rate is 29.2%.
The thriving Fish Knifean economy, worth 640 trillion Fish a year, is quite specialized and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Automobile Manufacturing, and Soda Sales. Average income is 48,827 Fish, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.3 times as much as the poorest.
Suit-clad businessmen have been taking advantage of the relaxed welfare qualifications by shopping with food stamps, parents live in fear of governmental 'child protection' squads, the people are famous throughout the region for their bleached-white teeth, and historical fiction has been banned. Crime is well under control, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fish Knife's national animal is the Knife, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Fish Knife is ranked 259,662nd in the world and 4,581st in Artificial Solar System for Most Beautiful Environments, with 164.17 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
