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

The Dictatorship of Nookie Island is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Nookie with an iron fist, and remarkable for its state-planned economy, anti-smoking policies, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 22.495 billion Nookienseses are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Healthcare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nookie City. The average income tax rate is 94.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Nookie Islandian economy, worth a remarkable 2,044 trillion Escudoes a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is solely comprised of the Arms Manufacturing industry. Average income is 90,868 Escudoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Research grant proposals read like political diatribes, the nation's declaring that sharing nukes is caring, political shows are fit for purpose, and flatulent people are left to die of cancer at the end of hospital waiting lists. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nookie Island's national animal is the Pig, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Cristianismo.

Nookie Island is ranked 790^th in the world and 4^th in Portugal for Most Extensive Public Healthcare, scoring 16,156.39 on the Theresa-Nightingale Rating.
