The Free Republic of Islame is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by the Madhi with an iron fist, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, zero percent divorce rate, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 20.258 billion Islamers are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Wesobad. The average income tax rate is 95.7%.
The frighteningly efficient Lame economy, worth a remarkable 4,797 trillion Axixican Pesos a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Retail, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 236,804 Axixican Pesos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.
Women no longer need to pepper conversations with incessant references to fictitious husbands, bread-gangs raid restaurant waste bins to stockpile uneaten rolls, ship captains always order a return to port at the slightest sign of rain, and skateparks can be found in every city. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Islame's national animal is the Viper, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Reformed Idolatry.
Islame is ranked 291,313th in the world and 24th in Axixican Confederation for Nicest Citizens, with 0.17 average smiles per day.
