“Rightful supreme sovereign of Democritus”

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

The Sun Emperor of New Metropolitan France is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by President Charles Dupont with a fair hand, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, pith helmet sales, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, democratic, humorless population of 19.027 billion French hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Paris. The average income tax rate is 77.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient French economy, worth a remarkable 4,045 trillion French Francs a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 212,601 French Francs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Paranoid museum guards keep a lookout for any animated displays attempting to escape the premises after dark, to say that military robots are inclined towards violence is offensive, therapists can always squeeze in another house-call, and the dish 'poisson avec poison' is only available on the black market. Crime is totally unknown. New Metropolitan France's national animal is the Jellyfish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

New Metropolitan France is ranked 289,425^th in the world and 2^nd in Democritus for Most Primitive, scoring -625.31 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
