The Republic of Guinea Pig Horde 19 is a colossal, genial nation, renowned for its avant-garde cinema, frequent executions, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 6.808 billion Guinea Pig Horde 19ians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 55.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The large but inefficient Guinea Pig Horde 19ian economy, worth 242 trillion pesos 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 Cheese Exports, Information Technology, Pizza Delivery, and Arms Manufacturing. 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 35,633 pesos, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Leader's family members carry literal get-out-of-jail-free cards, it is illegal to brush crumbs off your clothing outdoors, popular cartoon characters frequently appear in government-sponsored PSAs reminding students to say no to drugs, and ersatz chicken has left the nation's citizens with a bad taste in their mouths. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Guinea Pig Horde 19's national animal is the crocodile, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.
Guinea Pig Horde 19 is ranked 237,967th in the world and 8,068th in Lazarus for Most Primitive, scoring -121.75 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
