The County Seat of Mosby Bend is a massive, safe nation, notable for its closed borders, daily referendums, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 1.042 billion Mosby Bendians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.
The medium-sized government is primarily concerned with Spirituality, with Administration, Defense, and Industry also on the agenda, while International Aid and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of town hall. The average income tax rate is 25.4%.
The strong Mosby Bendian economy, worth 59.0 trillion dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Pizza Delivery, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 56,625 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.
The Mosby Bendian Arts Council pays teenagers to sit through opera performances, there's often a little nagging voice suggesting that parents aren't keeping their kids safe, eminent domain has been abolished, and the new cheese tax is colloquially known as "wheel welfare". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Mosby Bend's national animal is the bat, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Mosby Bend is ranked 44,432nd in the world and 2,604th in Lazarus for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 51.96 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
