The Kingdom of PlanetMercury is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Freddie Mercury with an iron fist, and renowned for its compulsory military service, otherworldly petting zoo, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 8.95 billion PlanetMercuries 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kensington. The average income tax rate is 70.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient PlanetMercuryian economy, worth a remarkable 2,967 trillion pounds a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 331,565 pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.
Prisoners work-share to cut down rising costs of keeping them in jail, blood donations have been banned because of the risk of eternal unrest, the nation's new foreign policy of 'very disproportionate retribution' has its neighbors on edge, and trade policy consists of ganging up on the new guy. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. PlanetMercury's national animal is the Cat, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
PlanetMercury is ranked 5,837th in the world and 274th in The North Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 112.94 law-abiding acts per hour.
