The Republic of Molies41 is a colossal, efficient nation, renowned for its keen interest in outer space, enslaved workforce, and zero percent divorce rate. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 7.199 billion Molies41ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 69.5%.
The frighteningly efficient Molies41ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,494 trillion guilders a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 207,593 guilders, with the richest citizens earning 8.8 times as much as the poorest.
'Giraffenado 6: You Gotta Be Kidding Me' is this summer's top-grossing movie, politicians can't accept birthday presents from their own children, every new building project has to undergo a five-year environmental impact study before it can go ahead, and citizens must pay to enjoy Molies41's pristine beaches. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Molies41's national animal is the giraffe, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Molies41 is ranked 115,627th in the world and 1,824th in Osiris for Most Stationary, with 328.6785743678 days.
