The Republic of Knizar

“Nothing Without Labour”

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

The Republic of Knizar is a titanic, efficient nation, renowned for its parental licensing program, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, devout population of 12.328 billion Knizarians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 86.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Knizarian economy, worth a remarkable 1,130 trillion Dollars a year, is highly specialized and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Cheese Exports, and Pizza Delivery. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 91,711 Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Loud Patriotic Music Day has been ranked the seventh best new holiday of the year, pet rocks are sold by the pound, banning party poppers has been a real party pooper, and children who refuse to share their crayons are arrested. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Knizar's national animal is the Ant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Knizar is ranked 45,886^th in the world and 2,092^nd in Balder for Most Developed, scoring 78.28 on the Human Development Index.
