The Social Democratic Federation of Indo States is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by President Alice Desnilla with an even hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, frequent executions, and suspicion of poets. The compassionate, humorless population of 13.576 billion Fatimanians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The relatively small, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fatima City. The average income tax rate is 66.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Fatimanian economy, worth a remarkable 4,078 trillion Eastern Siberian Estanas 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. 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 an amazing 300,426 Eastern Siberian Estanas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
A determined opposition debates the relative benefits of Arial and Times New Roman for days on end, access to the woods is only granted to those who bring a small shrubbery, teams of painters are converting road signs from horse lengths to kilometers, and diplomatic fallout tends to be much more dangerous than radioactive fallout. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Indo States's national animal is the Phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Roman Catholic and Fatimanic Orthodoxy.
Indo States is ranked 12,262nd in the world and 2nd in Hartfelden for Most Stationary, with 2,041.9007417938 days.
