The Republic of Onion 7 is a massive, genial nation, notable for its prohibition of alcohol, digital currency, and infamous sell-swords. The devout population of 1.4 billion Onion 7ians 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 42.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The powerhouse Onion 7ian economy, worth 89.2 trillion francs a year, is led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 63,690 francs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.
Pharmaceutical companies emphatically promise that "your pills are in the mail" rather than admit any supply shortfall, the nation's once beautiful countryside has turned brown as farmers spray potent pesticides, troop transports blacken the sky as the military commences Operation Desert Ocean, and the masses are surrendering their civil liberties without complaint for the sake of shopping convenience. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Onion 7's national animal is the dolphin, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.
Onion 7 is ranked 199,832nd in the world and 5,315th in Lazarus for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring -1.84 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
