The Ciudad de los Palacios of Mexico City is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Leader with an even hand, and renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, parental licensing program, and ritual sacrifices. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 25.841 billion Mexico Cityians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mexico City. The average income tax rate is 67.4%.
The frighteningly efficient Mexico Cityian economy, worth a remarkable 3,686 trillion pesos a year, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 142,647 pesos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.3 times as much as the poorest.
Leader steals from the rich and gives to the needy, Leader shrugs in the face of growing inequalities, politicians constantly ring their voters to remind them how good a job they're doing, and consumption of cat memes has skyrocketed. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mexico City's national animal is the bear, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Mexico City is ranked 93,018th in the world and 4,943rd in Lazarus for Lowest Crime Rates, with 66.76 law-abiding acts per hour.
