The Republic of Panzer Vor 255 is a massive, genial nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, state-planned economy, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cynical population of 2.996 billion Panzer Vor 255ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The enormous, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 66.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The Panzer Vor 255ian economy, worth 140 trillion Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Arms Manufacturing, and Information Technology. Average income is 46,965 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Citizens are encouraged to show displeasure with politicians by poking them with sharp metal sticks, the government is paving paradises to put up parking lots, nobody looks each other in the eye at neighborhood block parties any more, and war criminals are given full state funerals. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Panzer Vor 255's national animal is the Lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Panzer Vor 255 is ranked 187,252nd in the world and 439th in Celiane for Largest Timber Woodchipping Industry, scoring 1,283.91 on the Tasmanian Pulp Environmental Export Index.
