The People's Republic of Icepaw is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Icepaw boi with an even hand, and notable for its soft-spoken computers, anti-smoking policies, and state-planned economy. The compassionate, humorless population of 9.004 billion Icepawians 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Secret. The average income tax rate is 94.7%.
The frighteningly efficient Icepawian economy, worth a remarkable 1,489 trillion Aliens a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Trout Farming, and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 165,454 Aliens, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Polychromatic seas of leaves blanket the ground while sewers and drain pipes are clogged by their detritus, the nightly news reports prosaically on the government blindly throwing money at despotic kidnappers, Icepaw's free colleges struggle to maintain standards in the face of overwhelming demand, and toilet paper is considered a non-essential item in the embargo against Brasilistan. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Icepaw's national animal is the leopard, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Icepaw is ranked 4,159th in the world and 1st in The United Caribbean Island Alliance for Lowest Crime Rates, with 121.02 law-abiding acts per hour.
