The Watchfires of GoE-1 is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its soft-spoken computers, keen interest in outer space, and public floggings. The compassionate, devout population of 17.916 billion GoE-1ians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.
The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 39.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The strong GoE-1ian economy, worth 890 trillion $$s a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 49,711 $$s, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The Father of the House has been in office just shy of a fortnight, seasonal hay-fever sufferers are attending government drug counselling sessions to get free doughnuts, dessert dishes make up the GoE-1ian breakfast menu, and wanting a better life for your child is prohibited by a clause in the criminal code. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. GoE-1's national animal is the laughing swordfish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.
GoE-1 is ranked 6,808th in the world and 1st in Garden of Eden for Most Stationary, with 2,834.84448430948 days.
