The Democratic Republic of Futurella is a huge, efficient nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 606 million Futurellans are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.
The relatively small, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 12.0%.
The thriving Futurellan economy, worth 40.4 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Information Technology, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 66,624 Dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 243,560 per year while the poor average 12,927, a ratio of 18.8 to 1.
The government is dead set on letting people rest in peace, pollsters are out of a job as elections have been cancelled, a surprisingly large portion of the national budget is allocated to purchasing MMORPG "Elite Gold Loot Boxes", and being Leader has been voted one of the top ten most dangerous jobs. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Futurella's national animal is the Poodle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Futurella is ranked 275,540th in the world and 6th in Grand Alliance for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 12.05 Effective Tax Rate.
