The Community of Glongo is a huge, cultured nation, notable for its fear of technology, lack of airports, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 650 million Glongoans are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.
The medium-sized, corrupt government is primarily concerned with Industry, although Spirituality, Public Transport, and Administration are also considered important, while Law & Order and Education aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kunka. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 18.2%.
The frighteningly efficient Glongoan economy, worth 49.1 trillion dingoloids a year, is quite specialized and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Soda Sales, Pizza Delivery, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is 75,462 dingoloids, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 332,863 per year while the poor average 10,720, a ratio of 31.0 to 1.
The industries of Glongo are coughing all the way to the bank, unused plastic recycling bins are being dumped into landfills by the tonne, psychological disorders are a taboo subject, and couples are discouraged from marrying until they can rank their partner on a scale of one to ten. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Glongo's national animal is the man, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Glongo is ranked 30,457th in the world and 2nd in Jacobs for Most Corrupt Governments, with 71.25 kickbacks per hour.
