The Borderlands of Greater Wormemeria

“Mission Accomplished”

Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Borderlands of Greater Wormemeria is a massive, efficient nation, remarkable for its museums and concert halls, enslaved workforce, and national health service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 4.593 billion Greater Wormemerians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 32.0%.

The all-consuming Greater Wormemerian economy, worth 495 trillion rubles a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 107,829 rubles, with the richest citizens earning 5.3 times as much as the poorest.

Corporate innovation has effectively ended since ideas can no longer be owned, armed police are cracking down on untaxed collectable-card-trading in local junior schools, black market eau de toilette is made in bathroom labs across the nation, and museums stand half-empty as all foreign exhibits are returned to their countries of origin. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Greater Wormemeria's national animal is the parrot, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Greater Wormemeria is ranked 31,850^th in the world and 72^nd in Suspicious for Most Cultured, scoring 80 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
