“Always look for change behind the couch”

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

The Democratic Republic of OhCraplakistan is a massive, cultured nation, remarkable for its infamous sell-swords, complete absence of social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 3.115 billion OhCraplakistanians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Environment. The average income tax rate is 39.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient OhCraplakistanian economy, worth 422 trillion Eastern Pacific Squibblies a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 135,628 Eastern Pacific Squibblies, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

The nation is renowned abroad for its love of blood and guts, OhCraplakistan City's main city thoroughfare has been blocked by a row of leyland cypresses that mysteriously appeared overnight, children's bedrooms are often decorated with posters of successful accountants, and the intelligence community is playing 4-D chess with an imaginary spy network. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. OhCraplakistan's national animal is the Squibbly DibDob, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

OhCraplakistan is ranked 9,607^th in the world and 209^th in The East Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 416.37 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
