“Chi pecora si fa, il lupo se la mangia.”

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

The Papal Realms of Marche is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Gian Mario Spacca with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space and punitive income tax rates. The quiet, industrious population of 27.428 billion Marcheans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Defense, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ancona. The average income tax rate is 55.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Marchean economy, worth 691 trillion lire a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Basket Weaving. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 25,209 lire, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Abortions are routinely performed in Marche's hospitals, Gian Mario Spacca has just been declared ruler of Marche in an international press conference, parents must choose their children's names from a government-mandated master list, and Marche has designated Ancona as its capital city. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Marche's national animal is the lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is anticlericalism.

Marche is ranked 235,916^th in the world and 20^th in Italian Regions for Highest Food Quality, scoring 8.81 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
