Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Empire of Jiuchitski is a large, socially progressive nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 95 million Jiuchitskians enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.

The minute, liberal, pro-business government, or what there is of one, is primarily concerned with Defense, although Education and Healthcare are also considered important, while International Aid and Spirituality aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.6%.

The very strong Jiuchitskian economy, worth 5.21 trillion bitcoins a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Retail, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 54,808 bitcoins, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 321,638 per year while the poor average 4,362, a ratio of 73.7 to 1.

For the sake of 'public interest' news programs tell viewers how to home-make Sarin gas bombs, political parties are banned from advertising and receiving private donations, same-sex marriages are increasingly common, and employers may fire workers without giving any reason. Crime is a serious problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Jiuchitski's national animal is the porpoise, which can occasionally be seen avoiding garbage in the nation's murky oceans.

Jiuchitski is ranked 123,015^th in the world and 1,769^th in the Pacific for Most Secular, with 17.27 Atheism Rate.
