The Constitutional Monarchy of Georgist is a massive, cultured nation, remarkable for its museums and concert halls, ban on automobiles, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 3.908 billion Georgistians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.
The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Land value. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 56.8%.
The all-consuming Georgistian economy, worth 312 trillion Shillings a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 79,991 Shillings, with the richest citizens earning 9.8 times as much as the poorest.
Park rangers perform full-body searches on suspected fungus smugglers, burning yourself alive is not okay but starving and whipping yourself is fine, crime suspects are forced to submit to blood testing, and the children of Georgist are often remarked upon for their cheery attitude to extreme violence. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Georgist's national animal is the Eel, which can occasionally be seen avoiding garbage in the nation's murky oceans.
Georgist is ranked 169,498th in the world and 9th in Tudor England for Most Primitive, scoring -64.76 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
