The Republic of Perfect Clear Number 97 is a massive, efficient nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, pith helmet sales, and state-planned economy. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 3.338 billion Perfect Clear Number 97ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 72.2%.
The frighteningly efficient Perfect Clear Number 97ian economy, worth 374 trillion 9003s a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, fairly diversified black market in Information Technology, Retail, Woodchip Exports, and Automobile Manufacturing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 112,053 9003s, with the richest citizens earning 8.9 times as much as the poorest.
A well-funded social safety net protects the unfortunate, citizens know not to ask what their country can do for them but what they can do as chained slaves for their country, digital novelty coins make for surprising vanguards of the revolution, and much of Perfect Clear Number 97's computer network is controlled by a rampant artificial intelligence. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Perfect Clear Number 97's national animal is the 9003, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Perfect Clear Number 97 is ranked 130,091st in the world and 277th in Eye for Highest Food Quality, scoring 17.95 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
