The United Socialist States of Kangaroo29

“Prosperity for all!”

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

The United Socialist States of Kangaroo29 is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by The Proletarian Congress with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, anti-smoking policies, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 3.253 billion civilians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Devil's Cavern. The average income tax rate is 90.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Kangaroo29ian economy, worth 480 trillion koins a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Trout Farming. Average income is an impressive 147,803 koins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.

Scientific journals publish third-graders' school essays, college students make ends meet by selling their kidneys, parents seeking custody have to write a five-thousand word analysis of their child's imaginary friend, and student exchange programs are in trouble as everyone wants to leave but no-one wants to come. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Kangaroo29's national animal is the Kangaroo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Kangaroo29 is ranked 256,537^th in the world and 9,981^st in Balder for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 14,484.78 Standard Monetary Units.
