The Life Saving Teacher of Ms Crumble is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by What is my name with an even hand, and remarkable for its compulsory vegetarianism, frequent executions, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 8.935 billion Ghoulies are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.
The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Glendale. The average income tax rate is 78.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Ghoulie economy, worth a remarkable 1,165 trillion Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Pizza Delivery, and Information Technology. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 130,401 Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.
You gots to be part of the Party to get in to the party, legislators toe the party line lest the Sergeant-at-Arms decide to conduct "truncheon practice" on the backbench, public footpaths are being slowly eroded by the burgeoning number of ramblers, and hit TV show 'The eXecution Factor' is a critical success. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ms Crumble's national animal is the Ghoulies, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities, and its national religion is Insanity.
Ms Crumble is ranked 24,865th in the world and 1st in Daybreak for Lowest Crime Rates, with 86.05 law-abiding acts per hour.
