The Republic of Kagamine Rin is a colossal, orderly nation, remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, ban on automobiles, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 9.392 billion Kagamine Rinians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.
The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 33.6%.
The strong Kagamine Rinian economy, worth 606 trillion pounds a year, is led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Retail, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 64,620 pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.
International tensions are high as Kagamine Rin threatens any government with the audacity to arrest its citizens, warning signs caution Kagamine Rinians where they may fall off 'the edge of the world', billions of pounds are being poured into a space program, and only the rich can afford the latest medical innovations. Crime, especially youth-related, is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Kagamine Rin's national animal is the elephant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Kagamine Rin is ranked 221,481st in the world and 3,778th in Artificial Solar System for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -5.1 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
