The Armed Republic of HMNZSSR is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and national health service. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 282 million HMNZSSRians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 14.7%.
The strong HMNZSSRian economy, worth 15.3 trillion NZDS a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 54,100 NZDS, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.
Government officials are held to the highest standard of morality, whenever pilots have to bail out the government bails out their company, drunk drivers are sent to rehabilitation paid for by the government, and drive-by spoilers are an increasingly common crime. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent. HMNZSSR's national animal is the Sheep, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
HMNZSSR is ranked 272,360th in the world and 113th in Ridgefield for Most Extreme, scoring 7.08 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
