The Republic of Notenna is a colossal, efficient nation, remarkable for its zero percent divorce rate, keen interest in outer space, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 5.263 billion Notennans are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.
The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 50.9%.
The frighteningly efficient Notennan economy, worth 785 trillion francs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 149,244 francs, with the richest citizens earning 9.9 times as much as the poorest.
There's a bright dawn ahead for Notenna, polygamy is legal, the construction of massive skyscrapers seems to be the result of Notenna's mid-life crisis, and grade school teachers mark homework with red "CITATION NEEDED" stamps. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Notenna's national animal is the turtle, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.
Notenna is ranked 39,113th in the world and 262nd in Cainitium for Largest Governments, scoring 24.7 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
