“Sneaky stuff around the bush”

The Unexplored Jungles of Goblin Island is a colossal, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 7.813 billion Goblin Islandians enjoy great individual freedoms in everything except elections, which, where they exist at all, are populist shams for a dictatorship government that has no intention of ever giving up power.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, well-organized government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Defense, although Spirituality, Law & Order, and Healthcare are also considered important, while International Aid and Welfare receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.8%.

The strong Goblin Islandian economy, worth 442 trillion Bounties a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Basket Weaving, and Tourism. Average income is 56,667 Bounties, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 365,224 per year while the poor average 3,552, a ratio of 102 to 1.

Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Goblin Island's national animal is the Creeping Shrub.

Goblin Island is ranked 51,078^th in the world and 21^st in South Pacific for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 53,947.09 Standard Monetary Units.
